Calling all pickle fans: Michigan family opens gourmet pickle shop

AU GRES, Mich. – Are you a pickle fanatic? You probably need to take a trip to Au Gres, Michigan.

About 160 miles north of Detroit, a family has opened a gourmet pickle shop called “Freakin Pickles,” and it’s all the rage. Dubbed the “Pickle Palace,” the shop carries 12 “dill-icious” flavors, available for samples.

The fan favorite, the Double Dill, is “a thick chip that we pickle twice providing a slightly stronger dill flavor than the Old Fashion.”

The store is located in Au Gres, Michigan, but you can also find their pickles at select stores and events around Michigan.

The store first opened to the public on Aug. 31.
