Pickle & Rye

I’d almost gave them a 4 but decided on the 5. I got the Chicken Cajun or blackened burger. It tasted really good. Sliced partially so those flavors seep in and the fries had the perfect pinch of salt. I’d get the sandwich again but I felt like I was missing something. Sandwich and fries tasted really good.
And I’m American so I think I have the best judgement

Went here for late brunch, 3 full English (very nice baked beans with speck), rather large portions. Also a large Californian sandwich which is essentially a salad bowl in a bread loaf, huge and yum vegetarian. Rustic atmosphere but usually quite packed, this was a weekday noon time and only 2 tables free. Very good.

This little café is perfect! I had family visiting, so we were a big group and we had no trouble finding a spot to fit us all in. The food for breakfast and brunch was beyond delicious, and I had to steal a bite of everyone else’s because it all looked so good. I recommend the Eggs Benedict and the buttermilk pancakes. I will definitely be back. The service was great. The prices affordable and the food so worth it.

A cool and hip neighborhood American sandwich joint serving up solid sandwiches and delicious brunch items with real American bacon! If you are an expat, this will be your new comfort food craving after your first visit.
Our group ordered three different sandwiches and shared many brunch dishes and they were all amazing. They serve their buttermilk pancakes topped with bacon and a generous helping of syrup on the side. The eggs benny came with fries and was delish as well.
All of their amazing sandwiches come with an individual pickle that is made in-​house. We shared a Chicken Cobb (Corn fed chicken, smoked bacon, avocado, blue cheese, boiled egg, tomato, red onion, lettuce & mayo on 3 slices of toasted white), The Toronto (Slow roasted topside beef, melted English cheddar, leaf lettuce, tomato, pickled hot peppers, red onion, & horseradish mayo on toasted sourdough), and The Medley (Roasted turkey breast, smoked ham, bacon, melted cheddar & emmental, lettuce, tomato, red onion, pickled hot peppers & basil mayo on toasted sourdough).
This place is locally owned and the vibe is very laid back. We went around 12:30 on a Saturday and this place was packed. They take reservations so you might want to make some (we did). Overall, I will definitely come back.

We’ve been fans of this incredible little family-​owned restaurant since their early days of 10 seats only. We were sad when they moved to bigger premises just down the street, as we knew more people would discover our secret gem.
Alex & Val are not just owners; they’re the heart and soul of the brand.
The food has always been stunning and the introduction of a delicious and truly incredibly-​priced dinner menu means that we visit now more than ever.
Alex’s chips rival only Heston’s. The rest of the food is simply fabulous.
It’s a place to take an intimate dining companion, a dear friend, your parents or a few rambunctious children. Alex and Val will ensure your visit is warm, friendly, of good value and damn tasty.
(Never mind — don’t go there. I don’t want anyone else finding out about our secret gem!)

I went for a friend’s birthday, and although there was only three of us we still had a great time.
The menu is small but simple and it’s clear the owner and chef both care about the food they serve.
The black & blue burger, which i had, was so, so juicy.
All of the portion sizes were large enough to fill you up, and very reasonably priced for the fresh quality of the food.
Overall we had a fantastic time.
The restaurant itself was clean and spacious with a nice atmosphere.
We will definitely be returning.

No matter if it is breakfast, lunch or a quick snack with your coffee Pickle and Rye can do it all.
You may think it is just a simple sandwich yet the counter staff will advice you on flavours, size etc and they will even serve the pickles on the side for those who are unsure (I love them).

Best. Sandwiches. Ever.
Seriously, you will not be disappointed with your sandwich selection at Pickle and Rye. Many of the meats used in the sandwiches are roasted in the store, and the sandwiches are not soaked in mayo, so you can actually enjoy the flavours of the meats and other sandwich fillings.
My favourite? That’s a tough one, but if I absolutely had to choose, I’d go for the pulled pork sandwich. I love the flavours of the warm saucy pork contrasting against the cool crunchiness of the coleslaw. But then again, the reuben has that delicious salt beef and sauerkraut on that amazing dark rye. Mmm…
Not only are P&R’s sandwiches AMAZING, but they also make their own sour pickles which are AWESOME. One does not realise how much they miss sour pickles until they can no longer find them in the supermarket, and these pickles are worth the trek if you need a pickle fix.
Besides the excellent food, the staff are great and you can always except super friendly and efficient service.

Been a regular customer now for months. My weekends are not complete without a Breakfast Bagel or my absolute fav. the Toronto.
I’m hoping one day they will name a sandwich after me!
Cant wait for the refurb to finish… I’m having withdrawals.

Like most American ex-​pats, I’m amazed at how the country that invented the sandwich can’t make a proper sandwich. There are few things in the world less appetizing to me than two pieces of pre-​packaged soggy bread with one slice of ham drowning in a gallon of mayo that’s been sitting on the Pret a Manger shelf all day. In America you only see stuff like that at gas stations, and even there they hold the mayo. In England, they put so much mayo on those sandwiches that it actually gets listed as an ingredient. So whereas you’d have a chicken sandwich with mayo in America, in England it becomes a chicken mayo sandwich. That’s just wrong. And nasty.
Enter Pickle & Rye. If this place were in Soho or South Kensington then there’d be lines out the door. True Mortlake is in London’s upscale southwest and thus home to several affluent American ex-​pats, but I feel like that this gem of a sandwich place is missing out on a golden opportunity by being stuck out in the middle of nowhere. It was a trek to get to even from Fulham, and I’ve got plenty of friends who think that Fulham is enough of a trek already. Or at least that’s their excuse for never coming to visit us.
This place would merely have to not completely suck to be one of the best sandwich places in London, but it’s really taken the art of the sandwich to another level. The owner /​head sandwich dude is a culinary school graduate who roasts all their meats, cures his own corned beef (known around these parts as salt beef), makes his own dill pickles (which are easily the best that I’ve ever had in England) and Russian dressing, with the result being the finest reuben this side of the Atlantic. I will gladly return to the middle of nowhere for another one.

The best pulled pork this side of the Atlantic! Great range of classic contemporary American sandwich food. Charming staff, excellent food, great value. Worth a journey.
