Our Guestbook
“ 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. ”
“ 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. ”
“ 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 wings are great! Ordered extra crispy and got garlic lemon pepper and mild. Nice flavor and crispy. Cajun fries for the side. Service was fast, food came out quickly. My favorite place to get wings in Athens. ”
“ We were in Athens for a dance competition and went to the Blind Pig for lunch. They were able to easily accommodate 18 of us. Our server was great, and very attentive. All of our food came out quickly, exactly as ordered, and it was all delicious! Their menu has tons of options from wings and chicken tenders to sandwiches, salads, burgers, and even quesadillas. There's definitely something for everyone here, and all 18 of us enjoyed our meals. ”
“ Really good food and service. Rich wood bar and overall tavern feel. Server was attentive and accurate. Good list of draft options. Only annoyance, a few items were billed higher than they were on the menu. We would go again. ”
“ Good vibes! Dropped by with a party of 8 on Saturday at 7:00 and we were sat right away. Four adults, two teens, two grandparents. Our server was super sweet, there was a good variety of pub food so everyone found something they liked and there was a wide variety of liquor and creative cocktails, my favorite! Oh, and the cocktails are served in pint glasses so there's plenty to enjoy. I got the yianni burger (added grilled onions)and it was awesome. The feta cheese sauce was amazing - I'd put that stuff on everything. The fries and tater tots were just perfect and my husband's bacon and pimento burger was yummy too. The server told me other than burgers, the barbecue, fish tacos and loaded nachos also get rave reviews. If you like orange creamsicles don't miss the Orange Push Up Pop cocktail - it tastes just like one! For a sweet twist on a classic, the Buffalo Bow Tie is bourbon, ginger ale and peach schnapps. Blind Pig is an Athens classic. We'll be back! ”
“ Everything was DELICIOUS. Best grilled cheese I ever had! The pulled pork was fantastic, the fries were great, the chili was awesome, and the tenders were wonderful. 10/10 ”
