What Is The Pickle Lodge?
Start here if you are new.
Overview
The Pickle Lodge is a premier pickleball club with three Cincinnati-area locations: North Shore, Lunken Landing, and Factory 52. Whether you have never picked up a paddle or you are a tournament regular, there is a clear path in — and no membership is ever required to play.
Every location has its own bar and restaurant partner:
| Location | Inside Bar | Outside Bar | Restaurant Partner |
|---|---|---|---|
| North Shore | Erne's Pickle Bar | — | Two Cities Pizza |
| Lunken Landing | Sky Galley | — | Taglio Pizzeria |
| Factory 52 | The Kitchen Cantina | Rivet's Bar | Tortilleria Garcia |
Factory 52 is the only location with two bars.
What To Expect
Your First Visit: We will give you a quick tour — the pro shop, restrooms, the water refill station, and the bar and restaurant at your location. You can play without a membership using a free Non-Member account in The Pickle Lodge app, and we have complimentary paddles and balls if you need them (loaner paddles have pink grips).
Not Sure Where To Start? Tell us about your pickleball experience and we will point you to a Pickleball 1-0-1 clinic, Open Play, or a look around.
Ways To Play: Private court reservations, Open Play, instructional clinics, Pro & Play, and Rally with a Pro — plus leagues, tournaments, round robins, adult socials, and special events.
