The Pickle Guys has been in business since I was living in the Lower East Side and till this day there is still a crowd of long lines waiting to buy some pickle. If you walk around the corner of Essex Street you can smell the aroma of their pickles when the wind blows. They have regular flavored pickles and hot and sour pickles. In addition to their pickles they also sell olives, tomatoes, and peppers, but make sure you grab some pickles. One taste and you're lured in to buy more. Even tour buses stop here at this local favorite. Furthermore the pickles I believe is kosher.
