We had a lovely family birthday lunch on the weekend. The Pig and Whistle staff were always friendly, happy to answer questions. served a cake we brought from home, provided us three candles and lit them for us. The pub ambience is very relaxed, not noisey and the lunch servings were generous. I highly recommend The Pig and Whistle.

A semi local to us we know to book in advance. The food is always exceptional and fresh. The coffee is some of the best in the neighborhood. The staff are well trained and friendly. With an egg shortage we were told that eggs could only be fried or scrambled at the moment due to quality issues but regardless they were absolutely delicious. We’ll always come back.
