Pickles & Pie - Ponoka, Alberta

Pickles & Pie is definitely the most charming lunch spot in Ponoka! With its warm, welcoming atmosphere and great music playing in the background, it has quickly become my favorite place to grab lunch.

While the food is excellent and the atmosphere cozy, my favorite thing about Pickles & Pie is the hospitality. Mike and Terry know and greet their customers by name, offering a level of warmth and sincerity that’s hard to come by these days.

It’s the charming atmosphere, consistently delicious food, and personal service that make Pickles & Pie my go-to lunch spot in town!

What a gem of a historic building, with the best lunch around! Terry and Mike are no strangers to the restaurant world, and it shows in the details. The food is as delicious as it always has been, with a new building to show it off. Looking forward to many a lunch date here!

We were so excited to visit here for the first time. We arrived at 1:33pm and we were greeted with " We are closing at 2pm". I replied " well that's ok we can order something to go". The owner( or waiter) replied " we don't do take away so we can't service your needs." So his message was clear that he did not want to accommodate us in any way, not even with a cup of tea. As soon as the owner ( or waiter) saw my support puppy I could see and feel the tension her presence created right away, so his very unwelcoming, abrupt, cold response reaffirmed and matched this assumption/ observation 100%. We felt hurt, disappointed and very discriminated against. As we were leaving I said loudly to hubby " this was definitely our first and last time here for sure". It would've taken zero effort to be a little cordial and extend some sort of future hospitality, but, sadly, we were only shooed away like some unwanted pests. What a terrible experience that left us feeling that we didn't deserve their service. We decided to venture across the street to a different restaurant, The Pavillion,and we were so happy we did and had a wonderful lunch where our support puppy was accepted, welcomed back anytime.

First time visit.
Cute lunch shop.
Beautiful and interesting interior decor.
The location is well taken care of and extremely clean.

Ordered the CC Slider (Grilled BBQ Chicken with Cheese) with a side of mushroom soup (soup of the day). Ice tea to drink.
Sandwich was amazing, crispy, and tasteful.
The soup was amazing as well.

Service was very, very good. They chatted with everyone and made everyone feel welcome.
Definitely will visit again.

Glad to see another Ponoka historic building saved!
Glad they don't do take out. Dine-in only. Too many other places are so busy doing take out orders that actual restaurant customer suffer with long waits for food. They are very quick with our lunches and the atmosphere is very relaxing
