The Neon Pig is a great spot if you're looking for a burger that's a little different from the usual. The burgers are made fresh and have some really unique topping combinations, so there are plenty of options if you want something besides a basic cheeseburger. Service has always been fast when we've been, and the atmosphere is very casual and laid-back. Don't be surprised when your burger comes out served on a piece of paper instead of a plate. that's part of the experience and one of the things that makes this place a little different. They also have self-serve beer fridges read more

Truly the best burger in America. The only down side is that we seem to travel through this area on Sundays. Their website says open 11-4. Yelp hours are correct, CLOSED ON SUNDAY. Belvis burger is our go to burger. The burger of the month is blue cheese bacon with fig preserves. I usually prefer savory over sweet, but the combination is magical. We added in loaded fries. Help yourself to the cooler of beers or drafts. We never leave without buying a bottle of their jerky sauce, sweet with a little spicy. We plan our travels to make sure that we make to Neon Pig whenever possible. read more

While in Tupelo for business I stopped in to try "the best burger in America ". What if kind was a pretty good burger but honestly I've had better. I found it to be overcooked and a little underwhelming. The "loaded fries" in the other hand were fantastic as was the service. If you're in the area it's worth giving a try. read more

I had the burger of the month, The Cowboy, it was delicious...bacon, fried onions, fresh jalapeños and a light amount of bbq sauce. The truffle fries were great but next time I'll order them without chimichurri sauce as I thought it took away from the flavor of the truffle. My server Hannah was great...super friendly. A+ service. Overall, I was pleased and will be back. read more

What a great place! Sandwich was oh so good. Cheese melted and bread soft and tender. Served on butcher paper. Onion rings are a must. Jamie our server is excellent. She suggested the chocolate chip cookie locally made in town. If you get it bring a glass of milk to have with your cookie. A butcher shop feed people is an amazing experience. read more

Visited on a Friday around 3:30 in the afternoon, and it was a very easy, low-traffic time. Normally it seems always packed, and out the door. I had the Belvis Burger: smash grind, pork belly, pimento, jerky sauce, creole mustard, on a ciabatta bun. It was outstanding. Inside, the restaurant was clean, warm and inviting. There were choices of table, high-top, or bar seating. The service was on par with the entire, positive experience. read more

WoW, very unique atmosphere, and a local gem for sure. I was in town for a truck show and was told I had to come check this place out. This is a no thrills, nothing fancy, burger joint with a flare for art of creating a whimsical burger. Their grinds are truly unique, and the food was phenomenal. I only ordered a burger, no side, since I was short on time. I did get to try a few of buddies fries and they were very good as well. I'm already planning another trip to the area so I can come back again. I Dat at the bar and had great service. Yes, I would highly recommend them. read more

Neon Pig - Yup, they're serious, enjoy the atmosphere not your cell. - Butcher Near Me - Tupelo, Mississippi

Wow. What a delucious unique burger. The patty was made of a blend of beef, rib meat, streak and such. We were touring the area and looked up a place to have lunch and found this popular spot, and enjoyed it very much. read more

I really don't get what the big deal is. Wait for food was over 30 minutes. The country's best burger was overly greasy and at times tasted like fish. Like cross flavors on the grill. The cajun Cole slaw tasted like store bought slaw with gumbo file. Maybe everything taste better with beer... they had a good variety. read more

I discovered this place after learning that Kermit's Outlaw Kitchen closed a couple of years ago and something I found online said that the same owners had Neon Pig. I pass through Tupelo once every year or two and while i was very sad that Kermit's had closed, I had high hopes for Neon Pig. I met a friend here for lunch and we arrived a few minutes before 11:00 am, their opening time. We were 2 of 8-10 others who were waiting on the doors to open, so I took that as a good sign. It's in a shopping center type building, which surprised me a little. I guess I was picturing the old building that Kermit's was in. When you enter, you seat yourself and I noticed some of the regulars went ahead and fixed their drink from the self-serve fountain drink machine. Our server was friendly and helpful and gave us a couple of minutes to pick out what we wanted and told us to feel free to get our drinks in the meantime. I went with the Famous Smash Burger with the pickled onions on the side and a bag of Zapp's Chips (my favorite!). I initially asked for no onions but she said they're really good and done in house, so she suggested I get them on the side, so I did. They were ok - I don't care for the strong onion taste that hangs with you for hours and these didn't seem to be quite like raw onions, but were still a little stout. I only ate one small ring. The burger was fine and I ate most of it. The menu claims "voted best burger in America!", but I definitely wouldn't take it that far. I kept tasting something sweet and couldn't place it. I usually don't like sweet and savory together: for example, I hate sweet pickles. I just looked it up on Google and I think what I was tasing was the hoisin sauce. (honestly never heard of this before until now) I think if I got this burger again, I would leave off that sauce. My friend got the tacos, which I think was a daily special. I don't remember the name or anything in particular that she said about them, other than they were really spicy and very good. You pay the server at the table with the little portable paying thing (technical term, of course). One unique thing is that the food comes out on paper rather than plates and I asked when we left if we leave the trash on the table or no? She said leave it. I'm just passing this along because I never know what to do in those situations without asking. It was a good lunch and I'd definitely come back but probably try something other than the Smash Burger. read more

In Tupelo, MS there's a butcher shop/restaurant that is a "MUST DINE" if you are in the area. Neon Pig seems to incorporate the best of both worlds. You can actually pick something from the butcher case and they will cook it up for you! Sitting at the bar and watching the Grill Master operate I was thinking a burger, but when told about the lunch special I knew I had to try it. Three braised beef tacos with curry slaw, chow chow, pickled onions, quick pickles, their homemade "comeback sauce", and Hoisin sauce. I was in awe watching them create this dish and when it was presented I couldn't wait to dig in. I thought there was a lot going on here...but it will blow you away how great all of the flavors and textures work together. First time I've had a braised beef taco like this...and I will never forget it. The fries are freshly made and I loved how they were thick with a crispy exterior and fluffy inside. Overall great bar selection for beers, the place is comfortable, and the folks working there were very friendly. No doubt I will come back and have them cook me up a steak from the butcher's case. Love local spots like this serving up great food and taking care of their customers!!! read more

I heard that this place won The Best Burger in America by Thrillist but I didn't realize it was for 2015. As soon as I walked in I was warmly welcomed and given a menu , there were a few people dining but not too many, it was still early. The restaurant is also a place where you can purchase fresh meat, like a mini butter shop. The meat looked really good, the next time I'm in town and need some meat I'll give them a try! They also had T-Shirts for you to buy to remember your visit. It was a very casual, laidback environment and I enjoyed it. I ordered the Famous Smash Burger to see how good it was. Could it be the best burger I've had? It's served on a Ciabatta Bun with Benton's Bacon Bits, Cheddar, Quick Pickles, Pickled Onions, Hoisin and Comeback Sauce. I got it to go. It looked and smelled good, after my first bite all I could taste were the Quick Pickles. I had way too many, once I removed them it tasted a lot better. I also feel it was a tad overcooked a little dry. I should have specified how I wanted it cooked. It was a good burger, Not the Best but I would definitely go back and try some other things on the menu. I would give it 3.5 Stars. Keep up the good work! read more

We were traveling through Tupelo as we were driving down the Natchez Trace Parkway. The Neon Pig had great reviews and was easily accessed from the Natchez Trace. Wow! We were not disappointed. We arrived just after the lunch rush and were greeted immediately upon walking in the door. Since we missed the rush, we were told to sit wherever we wanted. The waitstaff was very friendly and explained to us how all their meat was ground on site and was always fresh. Some of the burgers are a mix of beef and pork. Both of the burgers we ordered were absolutely delicious. My wife ordered the Smash Burger and I ordered the Project Pat-ty Melt. Both were wonderful and packed with flavor. We cut the burgers in half and shared with each other. I'm glad we did because the burgers were both good but both were very different. The Smash burger uses the "smash grind" which consists of the filet, ribeye, sirloin, NY strip, and bacon. It also had pickled onions. I think the pickles were homemade as well. Very very good burger. The patty melt comes with the secret meatball grind with pepper jack cheese and caramelized onions on an inverted bun (sorta like Texas Toast). Bottom line - Absolutely a wonderful burger. An easy five-star review. This is a must-try if you are traveling the Natchez Trace and need to grab a bite. Definitely worth the visit. Bon appétit appétit, y'all. read more

I found this restaurant by accident as I was looking for someplace to visit for lunch in Tupelo in route to Memphis. I stopped in in this restaurant was very quiet, but everybody who worked there was very welcoming. I looked over the menu and decided on the burger that I wanted to order which was the Belvis. It was fixed quickly and tasted very fresh. I also enjoyed the fries that came along with it and will visit when passing through again. read more

Today my wife and I had lunch at Neon Pig in Tupelo, MS, and unfortunately our experience was negative. What the manager later called a "misunderstanding," I would describe as misinformation. I ordered the daily special, which I was told included chips and a drink. I specifically asked whether the drink could be a beer, and the waitress said yes. She then asked if I wanted fries and what topping I preferred. When I asked for her recommendation, she suggested Parmesan cheese. At no point did she say that fries or toppings were an extra charge. My wife did not eat--she only had water. When the bill arrived, I was charged extra for the beer, the fries, and the Parmesan cheese. I also noticed my wife had been charged for a beer she never ordered. When I asked the waitress why, she said the system "automatically" added it but couldn't explain why. Because we were traveling, I left and called the manager later. She told me the fries and cheese were extra, even though the waitress never disclosed that. She also said the special only included bottled beer, not draft--again, something the waitress never mentioned. Her response ended with, "Sorry for the misunderstanding." To me, this wasn't a misunderstanding. It felt like a bait‑and‑switch. read more

First timers, we walked in the door and the bar tender was telling us something but we couldn't hear over the music. He pointed, so we walked to the other side. We got there around two pm, so it wasn't very busy. The server came to us right away and told us the specials and learning we hadn't been in before, suggested the smash burger, so we both ordered that and truffle fries. There is a soda bar and you get your own sodas. The food arrived quickly and hot on parchment paper. The burger was good, a little peppery for my taste but my husband really liked it. Truffle fries are awesome! read more

We went for lunch. The restaurant has a very homey, old-fashioned restaurant atmosphere, which we loved. The staff was very friendly and helpful. My husband had the BLTC sandwich, and I had the Blue Canoe Burger. We both got orders of Truffle fries. My husband raved about how good his sandwich was. My burger was absolutely fantastic. The blue cheese and bacon jam complemented each other very well. I love that the burgers are handmade and fresh, instead of machine-formed and frozen. The truffle fries were awesome and the toppings on the fries just took it up a notch! We got a prepackaged homemade Mocha Chocolate Cake to take home. It was also fantastic. The cake was chocolate on top of chocolate and very moist. If the restaurant was closer to us, we would probably go every week. We will definitely be going back!!!!!!! read more

Traveling from Tuscaloosa from Oxford and stumbled upon this gem. Although located in a strip center this place does not disappoint. The menu has quite a few options - burgers, sandwiches, entrees, etc.. As noted be other reviews, the staff recommended I give the "Belvis" a try. It was outstanding. Definitely in top echelon of burgers I have ever had. The meat and toppings are expertly matched up. The melty pimento cheese is quite the touch. I liked the seasoning so much I bought of bottle of it to take home. The service is really good. The ambiance is very casual. When in Tupelo, you should definitely check this place out. N*joy! read more

We were stuck in Tupelo for a couple days when a friend's motorcycle broke down. The Neon Pig served up the best meal we had while there. The pork was tender, cooked just so. The portions were just right and the service was great. The rustic setting was comfortable. If we ever find ourselves rolling through that sweet little town again, we will enjoy another meal there! read more

Burgers were fabulous , French fries with seasoning, skin on. Superb. Staff was excellent

I'd give it six stars if I could. Stopped for lunch while travelling cross country. When I sat down and older man sitting a few chairs down asked if I'd eaten there before. I said no, and he responded "well you're in for a treat". He was right! The food was incredible. The staff was helpful and attentive. I look forward to eating here again. read more

Awesome food and cool staff! Will be back when passing through again! Definitely try it!

Oh my gosh, the burgers were absolutely amazing We just happed. Across this place and we're darn glad we did.

If you're in the Tupelo area Neon Pig is a must stop. A small little butcher shop with a special smash grind burger unlike anything you've ever tasted. The atmosphere is very warm and inviting, you can sit at the bar and watch your food being cooked or at a table. You will want to get here early, it fills up pretty quick. Being that I live over 400 miles away I wanted to buy some of the smash burger to bring home and share, the service for helping us get the meat prepared to getting ice for our cooler was amazing. If you're close to the area, try the smash grind, you will understand why it's received so many awards! read more

We were excited to try Neon Pig, but overall the experience was mixed. The smash burgers and smash fries, which are really hyped up, felt overrated to us. On the bright side, the burnt ends were delicious and packed with flavor. The filet mignon was also good, though the plate presentation was messy and not very appealing. The setup is super casual--drinks are self-serve, and if you order burgers or tacos, they're served in wrappers with no plates. Tables were small and our table was never cleared by the staff, which made the dining space feel cluttered. If you're going for the burnt ends, it might be worth a stop. Otherwise, it didn't quite live up to the hype for us. read more

Stopped by The Neon Pig on our way through Tupelo and it did not disappoint. The service was great from start to finish, and the food was even better. The atmosphere was great.

We are in town from KansasCity visiting family here. Tupelo has grown so much since I was little. Asked a local at the car wash some good places to try. Neon Pig was their first answer so we left the car wash & headed straight there for a late lunch. Cute little cafe style eatery & butcher. I ordered the half shrimp po'boy & it was unlike any I've had before. In a good way! I throughly enjoyed my sandwich which had great flavor & was filling. My son had the kids burger deal & was pleased with his meal (especially the french fries). Service was great as we were at the counter top & interacted with multiple of the employees all which were friendly & gave great service. Will definitely be coming back & bringing family with us. read more

Friends & I went to the Neon Pig last night. The staff at Neon Pig are so kind & helpful. Their smash burger is the world's best sandwich! The ambience is casual & groovy! It was here that I decided to try their fillet steak. I've bought them at Neon Pig to grill at home & let me tell you, they sell the BEST steaks in the South! Their in restaurant steak is divine! I eat meat about twice per week. Prior to last night, I had not eaten beef in about 3 weeks. My steak at the Neon Pig was perfection! read more
