Blind Pig

Went in for a drink. The drink was strong and good. Bartender was nice. The place seemed like a comfy place to party, but was empty the week night we went in.

The drink I had smelled and probably tasted like window cleaner. I can’t. This happened on two separate occasions going here. I can’t. It’s over.
Blind much?

What a wonderful experience. Just now on a Thursday night. Alya is working the bar. While my cell was dying. She politely understood my request for wanting to be safe on the train with a battery after leaving their bar. Before that I graciously said «hello» to the doorman. His name was Michael. He was wonderful and courteous. Did he his job politely and in the right way through proof of ID. Wasn’t forceful and just welcoming. He makes you feel like he’s a gate keeper into a great time about to unfold. I could have easily gone into «Kings head tavern» with the giant lantern across the street or bar next door or found myself a mani/​drink. But with the synchronicity of this duo you’re sure to feel safe with your belongings and how properly your drink is made. They were nothing short of a wonderful time. It’s safe to say I would come back again. These employees make the space. They make the bar and name. And that’s hard to consider that I’m a born and bred New Yorker (brooklynite) for 30 years. The’ll leave a mark through the hundreds of bars you’ll encounter.

Dive bar with insanely delicious looking food. Total guys spot– tater tots galore. Stars for looking good and being able to talk during the games!

I came here on a random Friday night to get some dinner, and I was nervous about going to a sports bar that it would be too drunk/​happy hour like. We had called before and they said it was «not so bad», so we decided to go. We walked in and unfortunately it was what I expected it to be (loud, drunk people), but they had an open table in the back so we decided to take it anyway.
I wasn’t really in the mood for anything on their menu, so I just ordered a random burger. I got the pretzel burger which came with honey mustard on a pretzel bun. It was tasty, yet hours later I felt really sick from it. It came with fries so I had a few which were good. My friends shared the lamb burger and nachos. The nachos could’ve been more melty and gooey, it was hard for things to stay on the chip.
The food was average. This is probably a good place to grab a drink and watch a sports game, but the burger made me sick so I probably won’t come back for food.

If you’re an Arsenal fan, you’ve found your home. They open early for all the matches (7AM on a weekend!) And have a few TV’s behind the bar and three protected screens on the other wall. Bring your scarf, your Gunner pride, and your singing voice as it can get loud up in here. I’ve never been here outside of a match, so I can’t comment to that. But I did enjoy a 64oz mug of Guinness with my buddy at 7:30AM during match day. That was quite enjoyable. Food was enjoyable too!

Really good bar food, great happy hour, and nice vibes. I can see this place being a regular spot for me. Happy hour is from 4pm-​8pm with $ 4 drafts and $ 5 well drinks. Definitely check out The Blind Pig, you won’t be disappointed.

Specifically came here after I read an article about their atomic buffalo wings. I have been on the hunt for the great hot wings in NYC/​Brooklyn. When I got there the buffalo wing selection was very small. They waitress never even heard of atomic wings. Their options were plain buffalo sauce and spicy asian wings which were FAR from spicy.
However, this is not why I am rating it so low. I am giving it two stars because their food was expensive and not at all better than a dive bar food or chain diner.

A fun little place for a brunch deal with unlimited drinks. The food shouldn’t be the reason you come here– the quality is mediocre, but the experience is worth it!
You can pay $ 25 for an entrée and unlimited drinks for a period of 2 hours. We got to choose between Bloody Mary’s and Mimosas, and it was an all-​around fun experience. My friend and I split one of the Greek Salads as well as the Turkey Burger. Again– don’t come here for the food but for the value packed meal you will enjoy.
Service was great, and ambiance was fun as well.

Great double boneless buffalo plate for $ 15. Got two flavors: hot asian and hot buffalo. Chunky blue cheese dressing. More than enough food for two. Nice pours on the whiskey to go along with it and good company — though that wasn’t provided by the bar.
Take your friends here for good food/​drinks and sports games if you’re into that. I have been here before and will come back again.

I’ve been here several times and every time I’ve been here has been lots of fun. They food is decent, the drinks average but the music is always great. They tend to play old school hip hop, which I love.
If the prices were better and the restrooms clean (they’re always dirty) I would have given them four stars but unfortunately, that’s not the case.
I would not come here for let’s say, dinner but for a few drinks and a bit of dancing with friends it’s good enough for me.

I came here post yoga for brunch with a friend. The restaurant is completely empty, as well as the outside seating, but the brunch menu looked great so we decided to sit down. The table we originally chose was wobbly and loose so we moved to a tight fitting bench in the shade. Shortly after hearing the special, which is bottomless bloody Mary’s and mamosas for an extra $ 12, we both order water and our meals. The waitress was very friendly.
I ordered the blind pig breakfast roll and my friend ordered the vegetarian eggs benedict. Our food came after about 10 minutes and was well presented. I wasn’t aware of the home fries side that it came with but it was a pleasant and delicious surprise! My roll as descent and consisted of scrambled eggs, bacon, and sausage; the original dish also comes with grilled tomato and siracha mayo. My sausage was a little charred but still edible and they left a water pitcher for us which was very kind. My friend did not enjoy her eggs benedict too much but had a good cup of tea.
Reasonably priced with each entre costing $ 13 and it comes with ONE complimentary drink of your choice! Again the waitress was so kind and funny!

3.5 stars for a yummy brunch sitting outside in the cool breeze on a Sunday afternoon.
I’ve walked past this place a few times on the way home to my apartment and I was enticed by their brunch menu and cute outdoor area. I came on a Sunday around 11:15 and it was completely empty so we had our pick of tables. We were seated immediately by a lovely waitress who brought us water and menus. She told us about bottomless brunch– for $ 12 extra, you can have unlimited bloody Mary’s or mimosas for 2 hours– but we opted out.
I ordered the veggie eggs Benedict (if you read my reviews a lot, you’ll know that this is a favorite of mine), which came with spinach, tomato and feta, and my friend got the Blind Pig breakfast roll. Both were perfectly fine but nothing exciting. My Benedict was actually a bit cold and tasted like salsa, but wasn’t horrible. My friend’s favorite part of the meal was the potatoes on the side– they were crisp and hot and paired well with the brunch. Another perk: every brunch comes with a free drink, your choice of coffee, tea, a mimosa, etc.
This place seems like a great bar to hang out at when the game is on, but it’s also a relaxing place to go to for brunch. The menu has the usual stuff, and other eccentricities like chicken and waffles and pulled pork Benedict. Check it out!

This is a sports bar. So if you’re not a sport watching individual, avoid this place on game nights because the spectators get a tad too rowdy and combination of alcohol is not the best atmosphere if you are trying to catch up with a friend because you literally wont be able to hear each other.
Came here for after work drinks, big mistake was coming here on a night of a Rangers game. But nonetheless we had a good hour to ourselves prior to that and in that time we were able to enjoy burgers, flatbread, and a bowl of Brussel sprouts. Not sure if I was just super hungry but I never had such delicious Brussel sprouts at a bar! They also have a good $ 5 wine, cocktail happy hour and a little cheaper for beer.
Although the noise level is a little above my tolerance, for what it is, still two thumbs up and needless to say, I will be coming back for those Brussel sprouts, on a non-​game day of course.

Poutine revisitée: pulled pork excellent. Patate au four. Spéciale, mais le résultat est étonnant.
Mac n Cheese: manqué de sel…
Bön service!
Belle ambiance

Wandered here on a random Wednesday night to catch up with friends and ended up having a really chill/​low key night.
Plenty of space to chat, drink & eat. They had a good selection of beers and we ended up getting the nachos which we couldn’t finish amongst 5 of us but it was yummy!
Not yet a 5 star review bc service was a bit spotty, the sliders were super tiny, and music was a bit everywhere (which I didn’t mind but my friends didn’t like it too much)

I came here for brunch earlier, and got the Pulled pork nachos and duck hash. Loved the nachos! The pulled pork was amazing. They were supposed to be mine and only mine, but no one at the table could resist them. Another order was placed. The dick hash came with delicious home fries and two poached eggs. Super big fan of the home fries as they were cooked just right and were not dry. One of my friend and I also ordered a beer tower. They have an unlimited mimosa deal with an entrée for two hours, in which the rest of my group participated. Let’s just say their glasses never reached half full. Service was slow at first, but picked up and had no complaints by the time we got our meals. I would definitely return.

This bar has a good amount of seating with multiple screens for your viewing pleasure. The bar staff are pretty attentive and quick with getting the drink orders out! Big plus!
Mostly this 4 star rating comes because I left my purse here and when I came back to see if it was still here… guess what… IT WAS!!!
Super duper happy about that!

I had a surprisingly good time here last night with the group of birthday partiers I accompanied! There was plenty of room when we arrived around 10pm Saturday, so our group of 8 – 10 was able to grab a table in the back with waitress service. In addition to our drinks and a pitcher of water (+1 for that), they brought us a round of free shots! The shots were some dangerously unburning cinnamon tequila that tasted like drinking Big Red gum. I have no shame in telling you I nursed that shot for a hour just because I knew in younger days I could have had 4 without thinking, and that would have been messy.
The music was good and fun even if a touch too loud (hush, I’m old). I can’t remember the last time I felt the urge to dance at a bar, but Blind Pig delivered. I left pretty early around 1am so not sure how crazy it gets later on, but it was pretty chill and fun the whole time I was there. Draws a younger crowd of course. Good time!

Great place to go if you’re an Arsenal fan! Get here early for a seat it gets full over an hour before the game.

I’ve passed this place many times since I live nearby. The atmosphere inside has always seemed cool, albeit typical. Finally got around to trying it out tonight.
The inside is spacious, with giant TVs on the walls – I imagine it’s perfect for game days (and it seems like fellow Unilocalers would agree). The lighting was dim, and the crowd loud, especially because it was 830pm on a Friday night.
My boyfriend and I were seated right away – the tables are wooden and bench-​style seating flush against the walls, so we could sit perpendicular to one another, which was nice since it would have been hard to hear one another if we had to sit across from each other. We were attended to in good time as soon as we flagged down waitstaff, and they gave us three menus – their drink specials, and a more extensive drink menu, plus the regular food menu. The selection of beers was just right – not so many choices as to be overwhelming, but enough to browse through for a few minutes while choosing our entrees.
We both ordered burgers – he got the Pig Burger and I got the Black and Blue. The former comes loaded with meat – chorizo and bacon – and cheddar. The usual fixins’ were on the side – onion, lettuce, tomato. But they deliver it to you open so you can easily remove whatever you don’t like before you «assemble» the burger. Of course, I’m sure you could also request that certain items are left off entirely. The Black and Blue was topped off with Gorgonzola, and the burger blackened on the outside (on purpose – that would be the «black» part of the name), but medium rare inside, which was great. The fries we each got on the side were pretty good – didn’t get the Old Bay waffle fries but definitely will try it later!
