Is there anything better than a classic reuben sandwich on a chilly fall day? Hot corned beef, melted swiss cheese, sauerkraut and way too much dressing... my mouth is watering just thinking about it. Here in Delaware, a great reuben can be hard to find, but one place in Rehoboth Beach has mastered the reuben — and several delicious variants.
Please note, Pickled Pig Pub has permanently closed.
The Pickled Pig Pub is an American restaurant in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.
You can find the pub hidden in a shopping center at 18756 Coastal Highway Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971
While it doesn't look like much from the outside, this tiny restaurant is filled with charming decor and features a beer list that will leave you wanting for nothing.
They're known for serving up amazing food every day, but there's one sandwich in particular that will make you a fan of the Pickled Pig Pub.
Their famous reuben consists of hot corned beef, sauerkraut, thousand island dressing, and swiss cheese on marble rye.
Pair it with their Dogfish Head 60 Minute Beer, as well as cheese and crab soup topped with old bay popcorn!
They also make a delicious, spicy version of the Reuben's sister sandwich, the Rachel.
This mouthwatering pastrami sandwich — smothered with spicy pepper jack, thousand island dressing or cajun ranch), topped with flash-fried onions — is frequently a daily special at the pub.
The Picked Pig Pub knows that they serve the best reuben in Delaware — you can tell by the variations they create for their daily specials.
The most tempting reuben I've seen so far was their Fried Pickle Reuben. Tempura fried pickles and a roasted pepper aioli joined corned beef and swiss cheese on fresh, grilled marble rye. Talk about a foodie dream come true!
Beyond the classic reuben and the rachel lies the pork reuben, which only appears every once in a while.
This sandwich is occasionally on the menu, and when it is, you've got to try it. The Pickled Pig takes roasted pork loin, swiss cheese, apple-braised sauerkraut, and beer mustard to create one of the most perfect sandwiches you'll ever try.
So go ahead and pig out on the best reuben in Delaware. Whether you opt for the classic sandwich or try one of their creative specials (a reuben burger?! wow!), you'll walk away dreaming of your next visit to the Pickled Pig Pub.
