The Green Pig Pub

A pleasant surprise! We had a delayed connecting flight with an overnight stay in Salt Lake on Thanksgiving and were excited to find The Green Pig open. The place was packed, and after football wrapped up, they were getting ready for karaoke. The pub food was fantastic, the beers were refreshing, and the service was quick and friendly. A great spot for a quick meal and easy to get to by Uber.

This is a welcoming pub with a great variety on their menu including vegan options! I've had the same server both times I've been here for lunch and she's so kind (I don't know her name, sorry!). The food is excellent and we weren't waiting for long. The first time I came here I got the blackened salmon tacos and they were so good I had to come back and get them again 😆 We didn't bring a dog with us today, but I also like that they are apparently dog friendly & have a patio. Dogs can be at the patio until 6 pm as far as I know. Definitely want to come back and try more of the menu because everything looks great!

$3 mimosas during brunch! Cranberry, pineapple, oj, or grapefruit 😝. It was pretty quiet the Sunday we went. Brunch was ~$12-$17 per an item, and we were also able to order from the lunch menu. I made a reservation for our group of 14 by calling in two days before just in case. Only 10 people showed up lol, but they still had tables we up for our grouped. Not empty, but not crowded and everyone that came in after us was able to sit with no wait. I’m sure this could vary depending on the weather/season/sports. It’s right next to a trax station and a bunch of parking lots downtown. You can find plenty of paid parking spots. The city owned ones are free on Sundays and usually a little cheaper than some of the random private lots and garages nearby. There are free spots if you know where to look, sometimes you might have to walk a little further than you may have hoped.

Very reasonable pricing! Especially if you go during brunch! 3 dollar mimosas and Bloody Marys! Were the cheap brunch drinks high quality? No, but they were good enough and did the job. Their breakfast potatoes were so good and overall the service was good. Waitress didn’t bother us unless she saw our drinks were empty and food came out fast. Love this place whether it’s night or day.

Stopped in while on vacation in SLC w my 3 boys in their twenties. Super friendly bartender from MN and friendly waitress from ‘all-over’. Good beers and great service. I love traditional wings, but sometimes they come out rubbery and under done. This place pre-bakes the wings before frying so they turn out crispy and tender. They were FANTASTIC!! Cuban and cheesy fries also pretty good. We’ll probably stop again before we go. Also prices were pretty reasonaly. We all had drinks, a shot, and food for about $75… Thanks for a good time.

GOOD FRIES - BAD TRIVIA I went to trivia tonight and was not impressed by the hostess. I understand that she is new and likely still learning the ropes, but it seemed that she put no care or preparation into hosting tonight. She had no charisma or command of the room, rushed through explaining the prizes as well as telling the winners at the end. It seemed as though she was reading off a script she hadn’t bothered to look at before that moment (and didn’t much care). I am hoping this was an off night for her, but if not I highly recommend encouraging more training on how to work a crowd or hiring someone with more experience.

We visited for the first time for trivia night and were incredibly disappointed by the host. They had absolutely no charisma, made no effort to make the presentation engaging or entertaining, butchered pronunciations, and was completely unfamiliar with the questions. I would expect a host to have read the questions they’re going to ask at least once before running the actual game. The inadequacy of the host ruined what was a fun night and we will be finding a different bar for trivia nights in the future.
