Best Maid Pickle Emporium Will Open In Fort Worth On Friday

Best Maid fans will soon have a place where they can relish in their love of pickles.

The Best Maid Pickle Emporium opens in Fort Worth on Friday, and it's a real pickle paradise.

"We have a ton of obsessed pickle fans, whom we love. Our mascot Smiley, the little girl on the jar with her tongue sticking out, people get her tattooed all over their body," Best Maid’s director of marketing Emily Christy told Fort Worth magazine in April.  

"This is a destination experience for the hardcore pickle fanatics as well as your neighbor who's looking for barbecue sauce for their next backyard event." 

The location at 829 W. Vickery Blvd. is a retail store devoted to all things pickle. It'll have Best Maid T-shirts, dog toys, limited edition pickles, pickle golf putters, pickled-shaped jewelry and even jugs of pure pickle brine.

The emporium will also be a mini museum for Best Maid.

It's already a big dill among pickle fans and Christy believes it'll become a tourist destination.

“We had people calling us from Washington, California, even Australia telling us they couldn’t wait to come to visit,” Christy told WFAA.

The location has a kitchen but won't be serving food when it opens due to COVID-19, Fort Worth magazine reported. Best Maid is also working to get the right permits to sell Martin House Brewing Company's Best Maid Pickle Beer.
