BOSTON, May 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- A Grillo's Pickles Bodega is heading to New York City this June as the brand's pickle pop-up returns to the Lower East Side – and, this time, you can leave pickled head to toe! Find Grillo's chillin with limited-time bites and merch you can't get anywhere else at 2 Rivington Street between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. every day from Friday, June 5 through Thursday, June 20.

Regulars and first-time visitors alike are welcome to come chill, whether you're looking for the perfect snack, meal or even fit. In fact, right when it feels like Grillo's has pickled everything, now they've gotten to shoes with the launch of the world's first pickle slides! Available beginning June 12 and only at this Lower East Side bodega, Grillo's Pickle Slides are the latest in fresh footwear for the true Grillo's super fan. A limited run is available at $75 per pair, while supplies last.

Plus, visitors will enjoy returning favorites such as Grillo's Pickles Grapes, Carrots, Red Onions, Green Tomatoes and Hot Peppers, as well as brand new creations like fresh merch, including an apron by Hedley & Bennett on June 10. And don't miss special collaborations with New York City faves over the course of the pop-up.

"We're excited to get back to the Lower East Side for the fourth consecutive Grillo's pop-up," said Mark Luker, Chief Commercial Officer at Grillo's Pickles. "Over the past few years, the neighborhood, our local partners and fans have been really good to us, and we're grateful to be back."

The fun doesn't stop at 2 Rivington Street. The metro card may be dead, but the Pickle Card is alive and well. Make sure to grab one at the pop-up, while supplies last, because Grillo's is inviting pickle people on a punch card scavenger hunt with other nearby spots.

Six Stop Quest Around the Lower East Side:

• 169 Bar (Pickle Back)
• Iggy's (Spear in a Beer)
• Dudley's (Pickle Martini)
• Ray's Bar (Pickle Lemonade with Vodka)
• Gotham Burger (Burgers with Pickles and Fried Pickles)
• Scarr's Pizza (Cubano Pizza) 

If you hit up all six of these spots with your Grillo's Pickles Punch Card and try the LTO at each, you can come back to redeem gift cards for Grillo's merch on a first come, first served basis. As if that's not enough incentive to hurry back soon, free pickle rides await.

"The pop-up is designed to feel like the embodiment of our brand," Luker added. "It's a way for people to literally step into the world we're building. This year, we're inviting everyone to step into the fridge, complete with a brand new Pickle Slide, punch card food tour, specialty pickled veggies and exclusive merch. More than anything, we want people to come by, experience the good vibes and have fun."
