    Too many beers on tap to try them all. Fortunately, they have flights (4 x 5oz tasters), so you can sample 4 of your favorites. Or 8. Or 12 ...

    A nice atmosphere with good craft beers. Being a gastropub, their menu is a little better than your average bar food.

    Plenty of local beers from the tap to choose from! But beware, there's only a single restroom per gender, don't wait til the last minute to go...

    Second time here, this trip. Brussel sprouts were amazing! Carnitas tacos were sadly not that flavourable (more like sweet pulled pork).
  • Saibal C.
    Have the Happy Hour fish tacos and blue cheese burger. Amazing California beers too. Love this place!

    The food here is excellent. Try the beet salad, even if you don't like beets. Calamari was also good, and happy hour prices are ver reasonable.

    It didn't have a line or a velvet rope. It DID have a plethora of awesome local brews and IPAs. Makes it a better bar on 5th.

    For a place with "Pig" in the name, pork needs to make a stronger showing on the menu. Fantastic barrel-aged sazerac.
