"This was a flea market with a pickle vendor and several other vendors. Pickle fests have more than one pickle vendor. The bathroom was not adequate for the amount of people in attendance. Very confusing long lines and lack of volunteers. Will not go back next year."

"The place was mobbed, be prepared to park far away, long lines to get in and long lines inside. After trying to find parking, walking far and waiting on long line, I was turned away. My pup was in a sling carrier and weighs 7 pounds. They said no dogs allowed. It’s an outdoor event, my mother told them what if she’s a service dog? She said I have to prove it. It’s against the law to ask That. There were many Other leashed dogs there. I thought it was very rude and inconsiderate after waiting on such a long line. We were outdoors and she was the only one secure in a sling carrier. My pup is a service dog in training, she is registered. I was not interested after being embarrassed and left. I would never go back there again."

"Pickle Fest 2023 folks, before you leave an awful review read this! As a patron of the festival for over 15 years I can attest to the fact that this year was an outlier! This year was the first time ever I have seen a line for entry or for pickles, and unfortunately the pickles ran out (only) an hour before the festival ended. Over 7,000 pickles were sold this year! Although it was a bummer to not get a pickle I was happy to donate my $5 entry fee to the Greenlawn Civic Association, a great charity!! I am glad to see not just locals there this year and can’t wait to see how the festival grows next year to accommodate all the new patrons!"

"Pickle festival was an utter disaster and disappointment. Waited in the street at some points to get in, waited on line for over an hour for the pickles, and then when we got close to the front of the line they then informed us they were out of all the flavors of pickles and did not offer any solutions. The workers were extremely rude, bumping into people and not offering any solutions to help out. Such an utter waste of the admissions fee and my time."

"We go to the Pickle Festival here every year. It was fantastic this year! Be sure to go early. Lots of food had already from the country store. It's that good!"
