The gastronomic landscape of Coral Springs has recently welcomed a new player to the table with the opening of New York Pickles & Company, a shop dedicated to the venerable pickled cucumber. Drawing from their well-established presence in South Florida's market scene, the brand has decided to settle down with a brick-and-mortar operation, serving up a wide variety of pickles straight from New York.
Reportedly, fans of the brand used to scour places like the Festival Flea Market and the Yellow Green Farmers Market in search of these beloved pickles, previously hidden behind a staircase or amidst the hustle and bustle of local vendors. Miami New Times reports that the new storefront is a veritable "Pickle Paradise," stacked with barrels of brine-soaked delights ready for purchase in pint, quart, or half-gallon containers. The store claims a comprehensive pickle roster with sour, garlic, hot, and horseradish varieties, among others, priced between approximately $7 and $21.
Those looking for more than just pickles can find a selection of other brined goodies. According to WSVN, New York Pickles and Company also extend their offerings to include peppers, olives, sauerkraut, and even pickled tomatoes. Proprietors Joe and Cynthia Riggins underscore the health benefits of their fermented products, suggesting advantages for ailments ranging from muscle cramps to anxiety.
A visit to the shop not only promises a taste of New York-style pickles but also a sensory experience. Customers can sample the various flavors as they peruse the barrels; a practice encouraged by the store's layout. For those unable to make the trip, Joe Riggins told WSVN, anybody can get a taste of the Big Apple's preserved cucumbers through online shopping options as well as wholesale purchasing opportunities. The Rigginses aim to share their passion far and wide, not limiting their crunch-time creations to the confines of their Coral Springs establishment. Their doors are now open at 10261 W Sample Rd, Coral Springs, FL 33065.
