Birmingham staple that is right in the heart of Mountain Brook Village. It is a classic drug store lunch counter. It has all the usual suspects — BLT, pimento cheese, chicken salad, egg salad all on white or wheat. Grab a seat and grab a bag of chips and you are set.
When I go, I usually go for the chicken salad on toasted white. It is a good flavored, no frills chicken salad. If you are looking for a chunky chicken salad, this is not it. But I have a wide spectrum of love for chicken salad. So there is a special place in my heart for Gilchrist’s.
But when you go to Gilchrist’s, you go for the limeade. I can’t stand a tart limeade, and this hits the perfect amount of sweetness. If you live in Birmingham and haven’t had one, you better get going. This is a definite bucket list item for the city.

Neat little place with a lot of history, I’m sure… but also a lot to be desired.
We stopped in for a quick, light lunch. The BLT was delicious, with crispy bacon and big fat tomato slices.
However, the chicken salad… I believe pasty is the best way to describe it. It was unidentifiable. Terrible. Thank goodness my husband and I always eat half of our own order and trade the other half so I at least got some of that yummy BLT.
Limeades were just ok.
I must admit I feel like a big jerk writing this review. It’s like slamming your grandmother’s cooking.

We ate at Gilchrist’s today for lunch. A really cool blast from the past experience with an extremely friendly staff. College football on tv with a staff that truly appreciates the game.
Old lunch counter favorites like chicken salad, BLT, hot dog and turkey sandwiches were good. A little pricey at just over $ 40 for 5 of us. However, the staff and nostalgia will take me back again when in the area.

Gilchrist is an old Mountain Brook Village drug store turned lunch counter/​café. The place offers a variety of sandwiches including egg and olive, tuna salad, turkey, ham, blt, etc.
Gilchrist also serves soup, milkshakes, and has a small breakfast menu.
One of the specialties is the limeade, which is a mix of fresh lime, water, and sugar. The place is a favorite of older mountain brook locals, as well as individuals who come to sit at the counter.
While parking can be tricky, this place is reasonably cheap and a good meeting spot between downtown and the suburbs.

Best limeades hands down. Gilchrist is an old-​fashioned drug store… aka the kind that serves up some great grilled cheeses, milkshakes, and soda jerk classics in addition to filling your Rx. If you haven’t been, you should go, especially if you have kids. Growing up this is where we got to go if we were really good– its such a treat to sit at the counter, watching what seems like a magician whip up a handmade limeade or a massive black and white milkshake.
Yummmmmyyyy!

i had a groupon for gilchrist that was about to expire so i met a friend there for lunch today. it was my first time to this mountain brook staple and the charm lived up to the hype. while sitting at the counter in this old drug store, i ordered the egg salad sandwich («everyone’s favorite» as stated on the menu) on wheat with sea salt chips and a limeade. everything was tasty but the limeade was not tart enough for me. the experience of being there was definitely the highlight and something you will want to check off your list of birmingham originals.
