It's a good place to grab something quick to eat and a beverage. Plenty of different seating options. Street parking available. Good friendly service! Food is okay!

Lmao. I met someone one high who worked front of house and the first thing they said to said was “oh my god did you see the mushrooms growing on the walls?l”
And I honestly said no because I was too preoccupied with literally everything
else. Gross place. I would never eat here.
If you thought you enjoyed the lobster hollandade, maybe don’t.

Hip and reliable neighborhood pub. Dishes are always tasty here if not outstanding. Enjoy the patio in the summer. Knowledgable bartender service. Recommended!

The Peckish Pig used to be great, but my last visit was bleak. The food was blah at best, the salad almost inedible. The service was fine, but it felt more like a truck stop than the hip gathering space it used to be.

I went for Sunday brunch with a friend. The food was fine, nothing exceptional but good and the atmosphere was lively without interfering with our conversation. Our server was pretty bad and we had to request drinks several times and we had to rely on the busser and another server for help. I've been a server myself and I can see when somebody just isn't doing his job.

Comfort food based menu with adventurous twists throughout. Loved the bacon fat popcorn as a starter. The dinner and drinks menus are diverse but not overwhelming. Service was on point, we were absolutely taken care of but never felt bothered. Chairs are less than comfortable but manageable for 90 minutes or so.

Food was great - 4.5 stars. Mahi mahi on a plank covered in mashed potatoes was great. Dates wrapped in bacon w blue cheese sauce - tasty but over cooked. Lots of beers on tap although they were out of my first choice.

Food was great - service was nice..., atmosphere/crowd wasn't my scene but that shouldn't deter anyone.

The pork belly needs more improvements seeing how this is a peckish pig, but everything else was amazing! Nice tasty, strong drinks as well!

I had a great experience at the Peckish Pig!! Great atmosphere and lovely service. I had the ribs and quinoa bowl which were delish. Can’t wait to come back for happy hour!!!
