Pickle and Social - Gwinnett

Great vibes. Staff very friendly. Smoking wings super good!! They offer tons of events, making sure to check out their calendar. We’ll definitely be back!!!

We did not order food. This place was very entertaining for the whole family! The rooftop is a very cool atmosphere and the staff is attentive, even dressing as a pickle to sign hbd to my husband 😆.

We really enjoyed playing here! It’s very easy to make a reservation. The pickle pizza is even yummy!

Heard Pickle & Social was one of the new hottest places in Gwinnett. Came to see for myself. Was seated right away since it was empty. Bartender named Jess was great! Very attentive and very knowledgeable when It came to answering my questions about what the most popular plates and drinks were. Besides the red and white hummus with Pita Bread, the food was Typical Bar food but done in a good way! Place is definitely on my list of places to come back to when I actually wanna play pickleball and is also a great place for friends to hangout at!

Don't know what happened, but on a rainy Sunday morning, there was no one to play with during open play. A few courts privately booked but basically the place was a ghost town. Think I'll try the local FREE park courts for open play instead. The facility is beautiful, but if you don't have players, then wasting my money to pay to play.

It’s fine. The food is average. The nickle and dining is atrocious. They are quick to kick you off the court. The $10 food credit for booking is ridiculous. I get they are a business and need to maximize profit but their business model is annoying. Only reason to come is the indoor courts when the weather sucks. Every time I come im reminded how lame a place it is. To the owners, we’d come a lot more (corporate card, not even my money) if it weren’t for all the nickle and dining. “More than pickleball” is way better.

I love Pickle and Social!! They are so much fun and very accommodating regardless of party size - I have come here to celebrate birthdays as well as just to play with a few friends. The atmosphere is always vibrant, with events like music bingos and live music! The best part is you don’t have to come play, you can actually come and sit in the green space for free, and either enjoy small games (connect 4, ping pong, cornhole , hula hoop) or grab a meal. They are even dog friendly as long as your dog stays on the green space. If you are coming to play, I’d recommend bringing your own pickleball paddles and balls because when renting costs can add up. Court rental prices will vary depending on if it’s peak hour or weekend/weekday. The cheapest time to go (and the quietest) is anytime Monday-Friday between 8 am-4 pm for $10/hr outside or $20/hr inside. If you’re eating try the Southwest Bowl and Sweet Potato Tater Tots!

We celebrated my daughter's birthday there yesterday. It was amazing! The staff, the food, the facility, everything was perfect and everyone had a great time. We will be coming back soon for some family time 😊

Pickle & Social is a really fun new concept offering pickleball, ping pong, and a bar/restaurant experience in the heart of Buford. I came here for an event and it was nice to mix and mingle in the bar area and outdoor spaces. We had a lot of fun playing several rounds of pickleball and enjoying the outdoors. I noticed they also have a rooftop and indoor courts. My only feedback would be to improve the food experience. There was a buffet with make your own sliders but it would have been better/faster if the meat and bun were already put together and then we could just add the condiments. For dessert, there was an "ice cream bar" which consisted of a tub of ice cream sitting out on a countertop with waffle cones and toppings for full self-service. The ice cream should have at least been put on ice or served to us directly. The service was a bit lackluster and they didn't seem to be busy so definitely needs improvement in the food and drinks service department.

Great concept and great place. With pickleball blowing up, they definitely took advantage and created a fun space. There are both indoor and outdoor courts, pickleball theme decor, and food and drinks. I didn't really see many workers until the end of the night when they were cleaning up and closing people out. We had a great time being active while also drinking and socializing. Everything was clean and not so crowded.

This was such a unique and fun experience. My boyfriend and I met up with a few friends to play pickleball for the first time. While we were waiting for everyone to arrive we sat at the bar and tried the Long Island & fries, which were both prepared pretty quickly and both tasted good. After a little while of waiting, our court was ready and our 60 minutes of play began. We followed the rules that were posted and rotated regularly. The workers checked on us a good amount of times, which was appreciated. Once our time was up they let us know and we explored the rooftop for a little before leaving. Overall, I had a great time and I think it's a great place for groups of friends that like to do something different.

This place is AWESOME. Our entire family and friends group have been super into pickleball and have started to come here to play since it's been cold out. Staff is super friendly. Facilities are clean. There's several indoor courts and many more outside. Food and drinks have all been good. Reservation cost is a bit higher than other places but you're paying for the convenience of food/drinks/attentive staff. Always enjoyed our time here! I hope one opens up near Peachtree Corners! /hinthint

We celebrated my husband's birthday here late last night. Everybody enjoyed themselves! The place has only been open a few days, but the service was great! Our attendant Ross, was very accommodating. He gave us a tour of the facility and was very friendly! They have multiple bars at the facility. They even have a rooftop bar lots. It's a full service restaurant as well. You can eat and drink while you play. It's a huge facility with indoor and outdoor courts. They have a total of six indoor courts that are temperature controlled. And two outdoor courts that are covered with a pavilion, the rest are open outdoor courts. Lots of sitting space with corn hole in ping-pong tables outside. You don't have to play to hang out there. Only thing is it's pretty pricey per Court rental. But I guess you're paying for the atmosphere and location.

The food is great there. The atmosphere is great their the staff is very helpful. However, the reservation issue has become a problem in recent times. They basically reserved 3 courts at 11 o'clock. People have already paid for open play until 1230 so that pretty much limited the court space; that's not a good model. They should allow for reservations to occur after 12:30 if they want to continue to offer open play.

My family and I loved this place. Such a fun place to hang out, and the staff were very friendly. They allowed us to bring outside Ice cream and coffee into their establishment which I found to be extremely gracious of them, and we appreciated it. I would not recommend eating here if you are looking for really good food. My father and I had two different power bowls, both of which lacked flavor, and my kids didn't care for their pizza. However, their wedges were quite delicious. If you are looking for a quick bite in between pickle ball games, the food will do. We will definitely be returning to this place to hang out.

Great facilities, but the staff up front could work on their communication skills greatly. Also, their POS system is really weird about Chase Bank cards. Kinda pricey too, but otherwise

Guys as of writing this review theres only two Pickleball/Restaurants/Bars in Atlanta! This one was the first! They have a ton of courts, great atmosphere

We are a group of 4 that started playing at Pickle & Social a few weeks ago. While we love pickleball it seems that this facility still has some growing pains. We've been making reservations in person. We were told last night that you can not make reservations in person even though we've reserved with a credit card. You can only make reservations on line??? When we've made reservations on line the person making the reservation provides their credit card which is charged $10.60 (non-refundable). When we go to settle our bill after playing, the cashier can never seem to figure out how to split the remaining $30 among the remaining 3 players. They have to get the manager every time. I also think it's weird that the court rentals are the same price regardless if you're playing inside or outside.

Had so much fun playing pickle ball for the first time! The food was great, drinks were refreshing, and the service was perfect! Great concept & can't wait to come back for more pickle ball!

Fun and family friendly! Polite staff and very clean. Went with a group of 8 and all of us took turns on 2 courts. They accommodate indoor and outdoor with plenty of courts to go around.

Got ripped off. First time there and we asked for an outside court to save some money ( $20 difference). We were surprised at check out when they ended up charging us for an indoor court cause they claimed outside courts with a roof over was an "indoor court". They really need to look up the definition of inside, because the indoor courts were blasting the a/c while at the outside court, we had to endure 100 degree weather with the sun beaming in our eyes. Even explained to the cashier we did not ask for indoor and the court was clearly outside, and they still refused to refund us.

Beautiful, indoor and outdoor court options, along with a full bar and restaurant. Wow! If you are a social pickleball player looking for a spot to get in some games, then relax with your friends while sharing some food and drinks, there's no place like it! Mo, Ross, Mateo, and the other staff are there to make sure you have a great time! I posted a five star review for you I believe I want to do

Poor service in restaurant part. Salsa tasted like from a jar. Come for the pickle ball courts but eat elsewhere.

Staff exceptional, everyone was kind and helpful. Service was great, we did not order food but our assigned server checked in with us and notified us of remaining court time. Facilities were clean and well maintained. Great experience all around!
