    Excellent service. Everybody was friendly and respectful- it was great to have a nice clean place to grab a bite out of the rain! The pickle club was excellent, and they serve early lunch as well as breakfast (at least around 10am when I was in). I got a T-shirt to commemorate my visit to St. Louis. Overall very happy with the experience and I'd certainly come back with family and friends in the future. Thanks guys!

    First time here. It is a cute delicious shop. Friendly service. Walked up and ordered a pickled club. Ham, turkey,bacon, swiss, lettuce, tomato, avocado spread. U pick the bread u want it on. Served with pickle. U can pick a side and drink to make meal. But this delicious sandwich is really good. Stacked high with everything. Would recommend.

    Italian Sub

    Nice staff Walk in, near the hotels near the arch Tried the Italian sub- it was delicious! The meat portion was generous. Soft bread. What made the sandwich was the sweet mustard. I would have tried more sandwiches if I had time

    Great local place with delicious foods. The shop was clean and we were immediately greeted upon entering. We ordered a Ruben and a wrap and they were prepared quickly. The staff was also super helpful with answering our tourist questions about St. Louis. Both sandwiches were delicious and you can tell the ingredients were all fresh. They weren't lacking in meats or ingredients as many places are these days! Plenty of tables if you wanted to eat there, or can take it to go picnic under the arch

    Amazing little deli in downtown St. Louis. The food was good. A lot of sandwiches to choose from. Prices were little pricey. Restaurant was clean and busy.

    We ate here after a long, hot day of walking and it was perfection. I would recommend anyone who is nearby stop at this phenomenal sandwich shop. Barely any wait and such great menu options.

    Pickles Deli is a convenient spot to grab lunch to go if you're in the area around the Gateway Arch. I tried out the Italian Sub along with a side of their Mustard Potato Salad. The sandwich is not the largest deli sandwich it'll fill you up if you get a side and/or a bag of chips. The flavors in the sandwich are well-balanced and there's a generous amount of meat inside. My favorite part of the whole meal however were the sweet pickles that were included. Next time I order from here, I'm definitely asking for extra pickles on the side. The mustard potato salad is not too saucy and I like the large potato chunks and tanginess to the salad. Definitely would stop by again! I recommend ordering ahead on their website if you don't want to wait in store. Orders that are ready to be picked up are just sitting on a table in front of the deli counter.

    Veggie sandwich on gluten free bread
    Maggie D.

    Had a lovely time here after stumbling across this place while walking downtown. It was a super cute urban deli with kind and happy staff. There were lots of healthy options and dietary accommodations including gluten free bread. I got the veggie sandwich on GF bread and it was delicious! Food came out fast and delivered to the table. Wishing I had a Pickles Deli in my hometown!

    Breakfast Menu

    Delicious, quick, reasonably priced breakfast! We ate here several days while staying nearby. They have gluten free bread and take precautions to avoid cross contamination for gluten allergies. Cheerful service and atmosphere.

    This was my first time trying Pickles Deli AND it was delivery and I throughly enjoyed my meal. I ordered the corned beef sandwich on marbled rye with spicy mustard, mayo and pickles. So sooo good. I haven't had a corned beef in a long time. The coleslaw wasn't what I expected because it wasn't mayo based, however, the flavor of this coleslaw is unique! Sweet, acidic, crunchy! A refreshing side dish. My delivery was timely and my food arrived well packaged and warm. I will order from them again. I look forward to trying other menu items in the future.

    It looks small and inviting at first... don't be fooled, it's actually a giant sandwich! Comes w pickle.

    This visit was from a month ago, but I remember a good sandwich when I eat one!!! We were in the area for a big event during New Years. Like, really big. Huge event, to the point where our wait at Pickles deli was around 30-40 minutes from us getting in line (the line was to the door) to receiving our food to-go. I don't fault them for this wait time, as I know the rush must've felt overwhelming PLUS they had 1/2 cash registers acting up. We couldn't get halfway thru our order without it freezing, loading, then rebooting. The menu is ginormous and there is so much to look at. I wound up making my own sandwich, and the amount of meat they give you deserves a round of applause. They do not skimp, AT ALL. The sandwich was so delicious (of course it was, I created it), but the ingredients definitely contributed. I will not stop thinking about this meal. I highly suggest anyone who is big on subway, Jersey mikes, Jimmy John's, to give Pickles Deli a try! Outstanding and filling sandwich for the same price as you'd get at one of those establishments!

    Service was relatively fast. Restaurant was clean and had a good selection of Sandwiches. However, they are on the smaller side.

    This was absolutely delightful and I was worried we wouldn't be seated with how busy it looked, but…read morewe must have missed the morning rush! We were pretty seated right away (party of 2.5) next to their beautiful plants and bar. Parking in the area can be a headache, but Songbird does have a small parking lot next door and can be worth trying. Our service was very welcoming and nice! The menu is a bit smaller than most, but I really enjoyed what we ordered. We started off Vanilla Iced Latte, an Iced Hibiscus Tea supplied by the London Tea Room, and waters. They gave my toddler his water in a to-go coffee cup which delighted me because in passing... a small child having his morning coffee lol Our food was great, filling, and delicious: a breakfast sandwich with aged white cheddar, applewood smoked bacon, and fried egg, huevos rancheros with housemade chorizo, and a farm toast (french toast with peaches) Lovely breakfast date - I highly recommend!

    Songbird is the Dolly Parton of St. Louis breakfast: bigger stage, brighter lights, same voice…read more I've followed this operation since it was a sandwich pop-up at the Tower Grove Farmers' Market, through the brick-and-mortar in The Grove, and now into its larger home in Tower Grove South. The quality has not wavered once. I ordered what I always order: The Combo (fried eggs, maplewood smoked bacon, cheese, brioche toast), extra egg, extra bacon. Most kitchens treat a fried egg as binary (runny or ruined). Songbird has mastered the middle register: lacy edges with a yolk that stays glossy and intact right up until the first bite. I ordered them over hard, and they came out a bit closer to over medium, but they were just as good as I wanted them to be. The bacon carries real smoke. This is a decadent sandwich, big enough that half of it would make a light breakfast; I wasn't remotely hungry after one, the second half was indulgent. The service made the move too. The hostess still recognizes returning customers, and the bigger room finally lets the dining experience breathe. The service at the table could have been a little warmer as we've had it the past, but it is still professional. I was there with two close college buddies, one of whom declared his latte excellent. I keep meaning to get adventurous with the menu, but it is genuinely hard to find a bacon, egg, and cheese toasted this perfectly, and I'd go twice in one day if given the opportunity. 4.8 A full five arrives the day when I can arrive first thing on a Saturday without a 30 minute wait, honestly, it's hard to get a reservation here because of its popularity. Good for them. Cheers to you, Songbird. Dolly would be proud

We tried to come on a Saturday after visiting the Gateway Arch, heartbroken that they were CLOSED! No sign on the door, so we had to figure out a backup option. On Sunday, we tried again and because there was no number listed online, we took a chance and thank goodness they were open! It's a small diner with patio situation and we were informed there would be a wait which was fine with us. We were quickly sat at the (covered) patio on a gorgeous sunny day and enjoyed the views of people walking to see a game at Busch Stadium. Kelly was a wonderful server! Both the Bloody Mary and the Espresso Martini were excellent! The deviled eggs were a delicious appetizer. Hands down though, that biscuit breakfast sandwich was what breakfast dreams are made of! Kelly recommended the sausage which was rich and flavorful. The over-medium egg was perfection! Potatoes were well seasoned and mouthwatering.

We were pleasantly surprised they weren't super busy, selfishly it was nice, but I hope it's not always like that because they deserve the hype. We sat at the bar and had great service the whole time. We started with a house made Bloody Mary (it had fantastic flavor) and an espresso martini (should we say the best in the city???). A piece of candied bacon came on the Bloody Mary and I'm still thinking about it. Then the food. I got a cheeseburger and fries and it was freaking fantastic. So juicy and tender, tons of flavor, one of the top burgers in St. Louis in my opinion. My husband got a special which was a braised beef Benedict and he was VERY happy. He likes a good burger and still said his meal was the best. They plate everything so beautifully, this is like a high class culinary experience in a (clean diner) with great prices. And the small menu is very preferred because it doesn't take you an hour to decide. And the fries - so fresh and crispy. This place deserves all the love. I was so impressed with it, it doesn't look like much from the outside but it is so worth it.

    The Fleur-de-Lys is the epitome of a luxurious getaway. Whether it is the quaintly appointed guest…read morerooms or the delightful library and parlor, each area of this former residence is unique and meticulously maintained. While it is not likely the norm, the owners, Mark & Leslie, met us at the front door, quite literally inviting us into their establishment. It was simply the most welcoming manner in which to be introduced to this treasure and Leslie quickly engaged us with the history of the home and how she and Mark had recently become the owners. We chose this destination based upon the significance of the Fleur-de-lis to my love, a native New Orleanian. Given St. Louis' rich French heritage, the mansion was originally outfitted with four chimneys that feature the fleur-de-lis design and the pattern is repeated throughout the home. While we enjoyed a quiet morning coffee in the back of the property, a lovely shaded patio area, she noticed how many places the symbol was present. She actually made mention to Mark & Leslie that they could make an activity out of counting/finding all of the fleur-de-lis around the home. What a fun idea! We were fortunate enough to book the Tower Grove Park room, a spacious room fitted with a king-size bed and a two-person jacuzzi tub. There is even a 'fainting couch' for that extra French touch! The bed was amazingly comfortable and the decor and accoutrements were exceptional, right down to the pocket doors and writing desk. But a B&B is set apart by the fare served in the morning, and this is where Mark, a chef by trade, and Leslie, a self-taught baker, knock it out of the park. That morning's menu included a fruit starter, fresh juice, Leslie's home-baked sourdough toast and home-baked English muffins, and Mark's egg and sausage soufflés with country potatoes. The entire breakfast had us completely over the moon! We felt so at home that we wanted to clear our own place - so we did! The rates are competitive and well worth every moment spent here. There is parking behind the property, as well as across from the property, and each guest is allowed a unique security code so as to gain entry while you are enjoying your stay. I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed this getaway, and Mark, Leslie, & assistant Sammy made us feel like family from the moment we crossed the threshold. We'll be back - and you should give Fleur-de-Lys a try!

Overall rating 3.5/5, even though I can't give half stars here on Yelp. One star for ambiance/vibes. This is a gorgeous, quaint little eatery in a lush area of Saint Louis County, right near Grant's Trail. One star for service. My server was a kind lady who made sure I was always doing well and kept my water glass topped off. One star for going above and beyond--I ordered gooey butter cake as a sweet treat and apparently whomever cut the slices made them too small so they gave me two but only charged me for one. Half a star for the gooey butter cake and espresso martini. Neither was the best instance of either I've ever had but they were the best part of the actual meal. Unfortunately, I think I made the wrong entree choice. I went with the biscuit (singular) and gravy and a side of sausage links. The biscuit is described as "jumbo" but didn't feel much bigger than what I'd consider a regular-sized biscuit. It also wasn't nearly as fluffy as I would have liked and was quite tough and hard at points, nearly requiring the use of a knife to cut it. The gravy was relatively flavorless and wasn't improved much by either salt or pepper. The sausage links were passable. I'm willing to give the shop another shot (and order something different) once I try some other brunch places on my list but I was a little disappointed on this visit because I wanted to like my food more.
