The Pigpen Neighborhood Bar

What a cool place to enjoy lunch out with friends! Enjoyed the old time ambience, we enjoyed our food and “I” loved that brisket margarita and those brisket nachos! Good service and reasonably priced.

I was overcharged on a recent visit. After overlooking my bank statement, it seemed there was an added tip on top of the 20% I originally gave. I contacted the manager, who initially said she would look into it, but I never received a follow-up despite multiple emails and calls. This was especially concerning since my husband had previously been double charged on a separate visit, which we assumed was a one-time mistake.
Being ignored was extremely disappointing and unprofessional. I strongly recommend that customers carefully review their receipts and bank statements for any overcharges.

Got the chicken sandwich and it didn't have any flavor to it. Tots seemed overcooked. Servers were friendly and nice and they have a small playground for kids.

I’ll start with the good part. It’s a chill dive bar atmosphere.
The rest:
Service is terrible - They don’t want to take your orders. They forget what you ordered.
Food is bad - Brisket nachos have old brisket, stale chips, and heated up/packaged cheese. Asian chicken sandwich has soggy bread and watery coleslaw. The chicken was barely warm but not the worst.
If you just want to chill and get beer it’s a good place to anything else and you’ll be disappointed.

(5 Star reserved for exceptional service/product). Country type bbq bar w both in and outside seating and bars. Excellent brisket nachos. Fantastic hummus and goat cheese w pita chips. Ridiculous good brisket bloody marys!!! Barkeep Mando at the outside bar makes awesome drinks and is an awesome bartender!!! Will definitely return!!!

One of our favorite spots to go with tge family. Excellent BBQ and good drink selections.

Avoid this place at all cost. Worst customer service I’ve ever experienced.

Really wanted to check this place out for nachos, which sadly don’t get served until after 2 on Sundays. Great place to sit outside and drink. Has a kids playground. The frozen Moscow mules are so delicious! Will be back to try the food soon.

Unfortunately due to petty people, I was cut off after two drinks. Which normally isn’t a big deal (I showed no signs of being intoxicated) but their reasonings were ridiculous. The first being “you have too many drinks on your tab” yes multiple people in our party are drinking and they wouldn’t separate the tab?? Secondly when I asked again to the manager her reasoning was “all of us bartenders have been watching you and we can tell you’ve had too much”.. So I understand policy, my sister is a server/bartender and I wasn’t gonna argue cause I think they wanted that to happen. On top of all this they rang up the food/drinks on the wrong card, prices went up on the tabs.. like it was just crazy how they conduct business. Then had their “regulars” start talking crap to my 7 year old as he was getting water they also kept turning their backs and staring at our table. (Every time one of us looked up someone was staring at us) Continued talking bad about me to people who we didn’t know, who CAME to our table to let us know what they were saying. Also as my sister went to order more drinks they were talking about me to her!! The “regulars” and bartenders continuously cackling anytime I got up for water. Served both my mom and sister 7-8 drinks EACH. We stopped going there for years cause their food had gone down.. which that was the best part of the night! So props to the cooks, the food was amazing! But the second shift staff was just really catty and horrible and very distasteful people. Lastly.. I think I went to high school with one of the girls and that’s how this got started. Graduated over 10 years ago.. but I guess people can hold on to grudges for that long. Feel so sorry for her. We will not be returning.

Had a great time watching UT beat Arizona State in the playoffs. Add some heating lamps under the outdoor bar and somehow take the glare off the tv’s so we can see who has the ball and I think your game crowd would increase.
