Great happy hour with excellent service. The atmosphere is fun and festive and the cold cocktails were perfect on a sweltering afternoon.

The Blind Pig Tavern was a nice place I got lunch at. It was very busy so the wait time was a bit long and service was a bit slow but it overall not too bad. I ordered a large chicken quesadilla which was really good value since it was very large and taste wise it was also pretty good. For sides I had cheese tots which I wouldn’t really recommend because all the tater tots became mushy after staying in the cheese. 👍

Maggie is a such a kind and friendly server, she made sure our needs were met with a side of cooked spinach. Great burger on a salad! Huge portion of mixed greens! Home made dressings! Burger was delicious! My friend enjoyed his chicken fingers (he said 5 stars!) and we loved the fries. Good food, music and staff!

Overall decent experience with the atmosphere, probably a blast to watch a Georgia Bulldog Football game here during the fall. The beer was a great price, but the food was so-so. The burger should not be on the menu if my experience and the sound of other experiences go. It was very tough, over cooked and all the juice had run dry, a bit more edible than a hockey puck in my opinion. The wings however were very good. Crispy and tossed in the perfect amount of sauce. I'd visit again, but maybe just for the beer and wings next time.

This place was packed out. The staff were very friendly and were doing the best that they could. My burger was supposed to be cooked medium, but it was almost cut in half, and well done. The young lady serving me wanted to try and make it right, but like I said, this place was standing room only with people waiting to eat. They didn't need be to add onto that.

Went on recommendation for a great burger - which was right on point. Fries were were done really well. Table was wobbly & service just a little slow, but worth it.

Overall: Meh I’ve visited this restaurant three times over the last couple of years. Upon entering this time, there was an unpleasant odor, reminiscent of old mop water, mildew, mold, indicating they might not be using clean water for cleaning. Despite this, I noticed they had a 97 on the health inspection, which reassured me, so we decided to stay. I ordered the pulled pork sandwich while my guest had a double burger. We started with mozzarella sticks, which came with ranch dressing instead of marinara—something our server, Evelyn, kindly warned us about in advance but I still found odd. My side salad was disappointing as it came without cheese or croutons, which seemed like unnecessary cost-cutting. Additionally, the large signs announcing a new 3.5% fee for credit card payments were quite distracting, adding an extra cost for consumers. Overall, while I wouldn’t recommend this place anymore due to the various issues, I might still visit in the future. Evelyn was a good server and made the experience somewhat better.

Came in for the first time today was planning to have a mixed drink and a good meal.I sat at my table for over ten minutes without anyone speaking to me or offering me a drink.So I decided to get up and leave, and even then no one tried to stop me or say anything.I'm sure this is not how they typically run.But I personally will not be back.

My first time ordering here. I had to grab something quick and to-go for a very late lunch. Service was quick and friendly. Ambar was my greeter and my server. I ordered the cheeseburger salad. The picture does not give justice to the large size of the salad, nor to how good it was. It came with plenty of toppings and the burger was cooked to absolute perfection and with the cheese melted on top. I am definitely a regular customer after my visit today.

The BEST burger I've had in a minute! Highly recommend the Fat Matt! It was so good I went back for dinner and got wings, which were also excellent. Friendly staff and great food.
