Trivia on Tuesday at 7:30 is the bees knees. Great rotating local beer selection on draft.

This place is a great low key brunch location. They have bottomless mimosas for $ 12. The inside is homey feeling and seems to be a great place to do work. The food was pretty average but at a good price.

#78/2016 There’s some charm in The Flying Pig that can’t decide if it’s a bar or a café. Frankly, the bar is winning by a pig’s snout but it’s nice you can get some decent sandwiches, chili, soups and other simple fare especially to mop up the alcohol. You order at the register, pour your own water from a mismatched assortment of glasses(my eye spy little boy zeroed in on a Mason jar, what is it about kids wanting to drink from Mason jars?) He ordered a medium«yogurt parfait», a bowl of Greek yogurt with granola, dried cranberries and raisins, a chocolate chip cookie(was too tired to say no) and a banana. I had the American breakfast burrito and it was massive and delicious(bacon, sausage, scrambled egg, avocado & potato) and the largest mug of coffee ever seen in San Francisco. My little boy asked for a bite then decided he’d keep half my burrito, too, lol. If I were doing a DYL round robin, I’d suggest to the gang to head over to The Flying Pig for some good grub & a top off. But since I don’t do that anymore, I headed over from my(great) mechanic across the street — BMW Motors if you’re taking notes, you should, Clifford’s great– to bide my time while he tinkered with my car. Good place to grab a decent bite or Happy Hour/last call and some food.

After a long day at the park, we were super hungry, so we looking up nearby spots and the Flying Pig popped up. We stroll into a casual atmosphere, quiet and low key. Got a couple sandwiches and they were very basic… meat cheese, bread. The girl working was super nice though!

Love this homely and welcoming place. Not crowded on weekends(day or night). Great beer selection on tap(they change it up). $ 14 bottomless mimosas(not sure if Sundays only). Service always great. Street parking. Order at the counter, grab a seat and they will bring your food to you. Breakfast and lunch menus all day, and night. There is a lovely mix of chairs, sofas, table and bar seating. My honey and i usually pick the seats at the tables across from the bar, to watch some tv and enjoy the comfy booth style seating. + Spicy Turkey Chili(with jalapeño, onions and cheese)-YUM! + French Dip Sandwich(meat is lean, au jus is flavorful!) /Turkey Wrap(pretty good but there wasnt much pizazz to it and maybe it would have tasted better warm instead) + bottomless Mimosas $ 12(not sure if Sundays only + selections of beers on tap

I just had my first sandwich at the Flying Pig(hot chicken pesto) and it was very good. You could tell it was made with fresh and quality ingredients. Friendly staff too.

This place is always delicious and the service is so nice. I recommend the BLT with avocado or any salad or sandwich with avocado! Nice people and great selection of food and beer. Best for lunch.

Went in there for my lunch, I had been meaning to try this place for a while but never got around until now. The place is pleasant, customer service is great as well. I ordered and sat down… Luckily I wasn’t in a hurry… food took a bit too long and they weren’t really that busy. I had a soup which was just ok, and a sandwich. The sandwich was great and good proportioned. Overall it was good but it wasn’t what I was expecting…

I came in yesterday with a group of co-workers on a cold, wet and chilly day in San Francisco. I’d heard great things of Flying Pig but I’d yet to try it during my lunch hour. I asked my co-worker on what he recommends since he’s a regular and he suggested that you can’t go wrong with any of their hot dogs. I was close to ordering one of their many specialty hot dogs but ultimately decided on going with a soup given my growing waistline, post holidays after all. For $ 7, I got a bowl of the Spicy Turkey Chili and for an additional $ 2, I added toasted bread to go along with it. The employee behind the counter was overly friendly, courteous and downright pleasant. He had many recommendations and never was pushy or tried to upsell. After taking your order, you seat yourself and there’s plenty of seating either at the bar or at one of the many tables. The café has a full bar and I saw a sign for bottomless mimosas on Sunday’s; who doesn’t love that? The employee who took our order seemed stretched a little thin, as he was also delivering food to tables. Although he kept the water flowing, I didn’t understand why my soup came out last especially when everyone else had more complex orders(sandwiches, hot dogs, salads, etc). No biggie because once the chili arrived, it looked great. I would of liked to of had a bit more as the portion felt a bit small but the bread more than made up for it. As far as the chili itself, it was great, it wasn’t too heavy yet still had plenty of meat. It had plenty of flavor and just the right amount of melted cheese. The bread was perfectly crisp and buttered and was the perfect companion for a cold and windy day in San Francisco. It wasn’t the best lunch but it was a solid choice and for a great price. Ambiance/Décor: 3⁄5 Food: 3⁄5 Service: 3⁄5 Price: $ Overall: 3⁄5 Pros: + Specialty hot dogs + Great sandwich selection + Decent prices and portions + Specials of the day + Full bar with bottomless mimosas on Sundays + Friendly service Cons: — Bowl of soup could be a slightly bigger portion for $ 7

Awesome place, cool vibe and incredible customer service! I was changing my flat tire nearby so my hands were really dirty. I found this place to clean up a little. Not only haven’t I seen a single sign of an irritation(something you would expect given my request to wash myself) but they also allowed me to use their kitchen sink because someone occupied the bathroom for a long time. I know it’s just a minor thing, but these little details are what differentiate well from great. Loved the place so much that I decided to hang out here. Enjoying my hot herbal tea with some lemon this rainy afternoon. Too bad I’m not hungry. Will definitely come again to try out the food and leave another Unilocal review describing my experience.

This place is pretty much perfect. They have something for everyone, but none of it is intrusive. Healthy food like soups and salads, but not in-your-face«carbs are bad» kind of way; not as healthy food like burritos, sandwiches and even hot dogs and sausages for those wiener-lovers; classic tunes; coffee, beer, wine; sports on the TV monitors, but also not in-your-face«Go Sports!» kind of way, and free wifi with space to spend time working. What more can you ask for!!! Oh, and the customer service was fabulous too. Only one person«serving» but she is on her game and super helpful. I’ll def be back.

This place is great because it’s not san francisco-pretentious. Which is HUGE. It’s comfortable(couches, some tables, relaxed vibe, mix between a sports bar/café/coffee shop), its friendly, it’s never too crowded(hard to find in the Mission) and it has some health-conscious stuff – good gluten free options, nice salads, as well as more bar food-type stuff – sandwiches, hot dogs, etc. Pretty much anyone can find something here. It’s a crowd pleaser. BUT the food quality is lacking. The chicken on the salad(several pieces, not all) was so rubbery we actually couldn’t chew it. Like gristle.(To be fair I’ve had it 2 other times and the chicken was edible.) The cheese on the nachos is «nacho cheese» which just isn’t real cheese and that’s all I can say. But the topper is that they don’t have olive oil. OLIVEOIL. Any café worth their salt needs to have this staple. Some good options: the Reuben sandwich was delicious(but probably not quality meat), the guacamole is good, and their vinaigrette salad dressing is yummy. Doesn’t taste bottled, although they don’t make it in-house. Overall this is a great spot but don’t come here expecting high quality ingredients or farm to table type experience.

One of my favorite watering holes in the city — no doubt about it. Great beers. Great people. I haven’t really perused the food menu, but maybe one day. I usually come to this spot for some BABS meetups. That’s when it really gets cracking. The owner is cool and the bartenders are always polite. Being easy on the eyes is helpful, too. And that’s before a few pints. A little out of my way, personally. But hey, you can’t have it all, right?

Just an overall great place to grab a sandwich and a fresh salad. The Dutch crunch bread is to die for. The bread is baked and then milk is spread over and the bread goes back in for one more bake. I can’t put into words how good this bread is. This Restaraunt is one for the ages.

Such a mellow vibe – very laid back. Kind of reminded me of a place in Fairfax. The people that run the place couldn’t have been any nicer. I appreciated the fact that they have a good relationship with a business across the street –SFC Motors. I dropped my car off there for a STAR smog test and with my receipt, I was able to get a coffee(or a soda) there for free. I opted for a Dr. Pepper and noticed that their soup of the day was a lentil, veggie soup. Even though the soup was watered down and way too peppery and the crackers that came with it were stale, I am willing to give it another try based on the people and the vibe.

Would I return here? Pssh! As if. Yeah right. I’ll come back… when. pigs. FLY. Oh wait. Many reubenized foods sprinkle a lil kraut, 1000 island, and pastrami /corned beef on top and call it a day. Some don’t even use all three. On a scale of Hotdog to Reuben, FP’s Reuben Dog leans slightly toward the ginuwine Reuben side. Had mine with hotlink. #meatsweats Rounding up to 4 stars because they were way more cheerful than they needed to be just over a hotdog x nonalc drink.

Ordered from here over the phone for pick-up. A guy, clearly not the owner, took my order. After each sandwich order he would rudely cut me off and tell me when to pick the sandwiches up. When I’d add another sandwich, he’s get even more annoyed. Either he got the order wrong, or the kitchen did, but my salad was missing, and my husband’s dressing was also missing. When he told the guy at the register that it wasn’t in the bag, he made no attempt to go get the dressing. He just looked at him and said ok. Who does that?! He begrudgingly went to get it when my husband asked him to. The sandwiches were ok, not good enough for me to have any desire to deal with this kind of BS again.

Such a great name, isn’t it? I assume it comes from the phrase, «When pigs fly», which is an adynaton, a figure of speech so hyperbolic that it describes an impossibility. There’s your English lesson for today. Class dismissed. Anyway, this place is light on the flying pig décor, just a couple behind the bar. And much to my surprise, it really is more bar than bistro. I’ve passed by it thinking it could be fun to try a neighborhood spot that isn’t in my neighborhood, so I convinced Jamie W. to have an early Sunday supper there. The menu is not huge here — soups, starter and entrée salads, sandwiches and hot dogs. They also have a small breakfast selection — bagels, burritos, oatmeal, a smoothie, and that’s about it food-wise. The overall vibe is casual. Young families appear to be regulars here with their toddlers running up and down the space in the late afternoon, but they are soon overtaken by young couples looking for libations to go with their appetites. Jamie ordered the $ 10.50 Cobb Salad, which was a good-size plate of mixed greens with chopped chicken and bacon, blue-cheese crumbles, a hard-boiled egg, tomatoes, cucumber, onions and croutons accompanied by a honey mustard dressing(photo: ). Nothing extraordinary but it was hearty, healthy eating, just what we expected. I started with their $ 2 soup of the day, a creamy Sweet Corn Soup, that satisfied my belly(photo: ). Then I had the $ 10.25 Chef’s Salad with Romaine lettuce, diced turkey, ham, cheddar and pepperjack cheese, a hard-boiled egg, kidney beans, tomatoes, onions and croutons with ranch dressing(photo: ). It was all good stuff for a bar offering and perfectly fine for a neighborhood hangout. Service was pretty laid back but not inefficient. I don’t think I’d wait for pigs to fly before trying it again on a spontaneous Sunday sometime. Maybe it’ll be a breakfast bagel next time. FOOD — 3 stars… solid pub fare for the Mission if you live in the vicinity AMBIANCE — 3.5 stars… very casual, family-friendly tavern on a Sunday afternoon SERVICE — 3.5 stars… friendly enough, efficient enough TOTAL — 3 stars… no need to wait for this pig to fly

This place was a good spot for quick, solitary lunch. The food was good, the staff was friendly, and the service was efficient. It was a bit pricier than I would have liked(I paid about $ 13 for a chicken hummus wrap and side of fresh fruit). Overall, a pleasant weekday casual lunch experience!
