Jacob's Pickles

The lively atmosphere here is fueled by a menu of heavy-hitting comfort food and generous portions. While pickles are the namesake—with options to try several fresh varieties—the crispy, battered fried pickles are a standout. The kitchen also turns out a smash burger on a flaky, buttery bun, buffalo mac and cheese, and beef brisket. If you save room for dessert, the massive, shareable Oreo pudding anchors the sweet side of the menu.
