Given Pickles’ reputation as a gastro-burger house, you may instantly find yourself only focusing on the hamburgers. These are good and should not be missed, but the pickles are equally deserving of mention: the Bread and Butter Chips and the Banana Peppers are both fried to perfection and come with a rainbow’s array of dipping sauces. This gives you just a slight sweetness from the sauce with the tang of a spicy pickle. The Montreal Poutine is served with chicken served on top of fries and a chicken based gravy, as well as a liberal portion of Swiss cheese poured over the top. All in all, a solid burger joint offering something different.

Pickles is located on the Gulf Road in Salmiya’s Marina Walk (2226 4529), Al Bida’a Al Arjan strip (2225 3155) next to Movenpick Hotel. Instagram, Facebook and Twitter @pickleskw.
