Sandwich/Salad Catering. Pickleman’s Gourmet Café (Catering). Kansas City, Missouri. 10.13.2022.
NOTE TO SELF: That sandwich wasn't great (and I only ate half the bread), but the not-pictured salad I made was a classic ranch-topped cobb situation and it hit the spot. It probably won't hold up if I ever have it again, but I was hungry and stress-eating this go-round.
Currently ranked 7th of 15 October meals.

Pickleman’s is a gourmet cafe. It’s located on Campus Corner, right next to Crooked Crust. They have a variety of menu items, but their two biggest staples are toasted sandwiches and pizzas.
If I’ve learned anything from “Navigating Norman”, it’s that you should always ask employees what to order. They know the business best and usually appreciate being recognized as more than a servant.
So I asked an employee, who was making pizzas, what I should order.
He said that their specialty isn’t on the menu, but that it’s called the Truth pizza. When I told him I was interested he said, “Okay, you can have the half-truth or the whole-truth.”
Obviously, I got the whole-truth.
Whole pizzas are 12 inches wide. The Truth pizza is topped with barbecue chicken, blue cheese, mozzarella cheese, buffalo sauce, and BBQ sauce. The crust was thin and crispy.
My friend and I split the $12 pizza and we were both full by the end of the meal. The pizza was much spicier than I thought it would be, but I still enjoyed it, even if I did drink about four glasses of water.
I also had one of their chocolate chip cookies, which are made fresh daily. It was the perfect consistency—soft and gooey.
There are a few barstools and a lot of booths to sit at. I went around 8 o’clock at night and there were only a handful of people inside.
Pickleman’s isn’t unique or fancy like some of the other places on Campus Corner, but they do have good food. Good food, coupled with quality service and a clean venue, make Pickleman’s a place worth visiting.
Tip: Get the Truth Pizza, but only if you like spicy food.
this is why i order from pickleman's
