Park Street Deli Kosher Dill Spears

When I buy a sandwich at a deli restaurant, one of my favorite parts of the meal is the little pickle spear that comes alongside my sandwich. Those pickle spears taste better than the standard jarred grocery store kosher spears I eat at home. The dill spears from restaurants seem more fresh, more crisp, and just superior overall.

Aldi sells classic jarred pickle spears, and they’re fine. But the discount grocer also sells some refrigerated kosher dill spears — the container calls them fresh deli pickles — that are fantastic, and I prefer to buy them whenever I want pickle spears. They taste as close to what I get at a deli than anything else I’ve tried from grocery stores.

Park Street Deli Kosher Dill Spears are a Regular Buy, which means you should be able to find them all year. They’re stocked in the refrigerated aisle near the dips, cheese, and lunch meat. These need to be kept refrigerated, and the container states they go from “farm to pack in 5 days!” The ones I bought most recently in September of 2025 had a best-by date of April 16th, 2026. These are often sold alongside some half sours, which are cucumbers with a hint of pickle flavor.

These cost $3.49 for a 32-ounce container at my local store in September of 2025, which comes out to about 11 cents per ounce. That’s down from $4.19 I paid for them in August of 2024.

These are sold under the Park Street Deli brand. There is no company called Park Street Deli. Instead, that’s the private label Aldi puts on various refrigerated deli products that it sources from multiple suppliers. Other Park Street Deli items at Aldi include refrigerated soups, spinach and artichoke dip, and ready-to-heat meals like pork carnitas or burnt ends.

Ingredients are fresh cucumbers, water, salt, vinegar, spice, garlic, 1/10th of 1% of sodium benzoate (preservative), and calcium chloride (firming agent). It would be helpful if the label stated what “spice” is used in these.

One container has 24 one-ounce servings, but there aren’t 24 pickles in the container. I counted 18 pickle spears in my container. So, that means one serving is technically not a whole spear. With that in mind, one serving has 5 calories, no fat, 210 mg of sodium (9% DV), no carbs or sugars, and no protein.

My husband and I are big fans of these. They taste fresh and have a nice crisp texture. They also have less bite than regular jarred pickles. Their flavor is on the milder side, and again, these taste like what I get at a good deli restaurant.

The Verdict:

Park Street Deli Kosher Dill Spears are sold in the refrigerator case at Aldi, and they are as good as the pickle spears I get when I order a sandwich from a deli. If you want dill spears that are more fresh and crisp than the standard jarred room temperature pickles you find at the grocery store, give these a try. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.
