One and done! We should have checked the reviews first but-nostalgia got the best of me when I saw they were called the Piggy Bank again. This place is the epitome couldn't care less! Chicken sandwich on a stale cold sweet potato bun and undrained fries. The cheese steak was a joke dry and didn't taste anything like beef, stale bread fries tasted sour from used oil. Never going back again. And don't get me started on the unisex bathroom that smells like a cat box with super low lights so you can't see (only smell) how dirty it is.
My family and I recently visited The Piggy Bank during one of our trips to Beacon--we try to explore a different restaurant each time we're in town. This spot seemed fairly new, so we decided to give it a try. The service was excellent. We were greeted and seated right away, and the staff was attentive throughout. We chose to sit outside, and menus were brought to us immediately. Our food came out quickly, which we appreciated. Portions were very generous--so much so that we couldn't finish everything. Unfortunately, the food didn't quite live up to the service. My kids had the chicken finger platter, my wife ordered the pulled pork, and I went with the smoked brisket. The fried chicken was the highlight--crispy and flavorful--but everything else was disappointing. The cornbread was hard as a brick, the fries were overly salty, and the brisket lacked flavor. We really wanted to like this place, but overall, the food just fell short.
Might be off duty, but eating this pork was still my DUTY The barbecue pork ribs were tender, flavorful, and honestly... too cute to leave leftovers. The crab cake was delicious.You can taste the love in every bite. The atmosphere was warm, attentive, and exactly what I needed on my day off. 10/10 -- I'd happily report back again My husband wasn't impress by the pull pork sandwich (I never tried it)
We stopped by PiggyBank during a weekend getaway because we could smell the BBQ from a distance -- it immediately drew us in. The place was very busy, and it felt a bit understaffed. We sat for a while before anyone came over, and we didn't even get water at first, though to be fair, the staff were clearly swamped. The restaurant itself is pretty unique -- it used to be an old bank, and they kept the original vault, which is now used to store liquor. It's a fun and memorable feature. For food, we ordered a burger and a Pulled Pork Sandwich. The pulled pork tasted good, though it was a bit too salty. Surprisingly, the best part of both sandwiches was the bread -- soft, flavorful, and honestly better than the protein inside. The burger bun had a slight orange tint, which I think might come from local pumpkin, but either way, it was excellent. The fries were average, and the onion rings were just okay -- nothing special. Despite the long wait, it was fine for a quick bite. One funny (or slightly annoying) thing: there were lots of bees flying around the outdoor seating area, often near our table. Not dangerous, but definitely a little distracting. Overall: * The bread was the highlight. * Pulled pork and burger were tasty, though a bit salty. * Fries and onion rings were average. * Unique setting with the old vault. * Busy spot, slightly understaffed, but still worth a visit.
The Piggy Bank was just okay overall. The burger and fries were fine but nothing memorable. The mac and cheese had a sharper flavor than I prefer, so it wasn't quite to my taste. Service was also just okay -- not bad, but not especially attentive or warm either.
Great food, amazing cocktails, and a welcoming staff. A dog-friendly patio and beautiful dining room featuring an old bank vault with an elegant bar. We loved the house nachos and mozzarella sticks. We got the wing with the Alabama White sauce, which was delicious and unique flavor profile. Shout out to Tim for being an all-star waiter. He reflected the fun and friendly vibe of the Piggy Bank. We look forward to coming back to sample more of the menu.
I got scared off by the pics and complaints about the BBQ in the reviews, so thought I'd go for the Chx sandwich instead. Big mistake. The "chicken" was non existent. For a second I genuinely thought I'd accidentally ordered a veg substitute because I couldn't find it. The sandwich was 90% burnt breading, and that is not an exaggeration. Charging $18 for an actual sliver of chicken is insane. It was impossible to bite into because what little chicken there was had turned into jerky. I was hungry, so I ate as much as I could stomach, but more than half of than sandwich got tossed.
The Piggy Bank has potential but unfortunately the entire dining experience was lacking. On the upside: the setting is very nice on Main Street in Beacon. It's a good place for drinks at the bar. And it's a clean and welcoming restaurant. The waiter was excellent. (I give him 5-stars.) Also, the New Orleanian inspired fare might be tasty. The Po' boys looked pretty good. But don't go here for BBQ. The dry rub chicken wings were dried out and overcooked. (Probably the worst wings I've had in a long time.) The pork ribs were rubbery, and while cooked to food safety standards (USDA 145°), they were taken off the pit too soon. Therefore, they were very tough and unappetizing. (Gotta break down that connective tissue guys.) Worst of all, the small portion of overcooked, dry brisket was the biggest disappointment. For $15, you receive two slices of their poorly prepared beef brisket. It was pretty bleak. I sampled only two sides: the mac 'n cheese and the mashed potatoes. They were "okay" but not particularly noteworthy. In general, the whole dining experience was regrettable (and expensive). I think this is a relatively new restaurant (a reboot under new ownership). Perhaps they are still working out the kinks but the quality and presentation of their BBQ meats needs big improvements.
We were so upset when the hog shut down, but so happy knowing the cook from there has shifted over to this spot. We can still get our juicy crispy fried chicken and theres a few more options and now desserts and cocktails too. The inside and outside is super cute, right now the menus a bit limited but what we had was great. Definitely would get the mozz againz they were biggee than corn dogs. And the burger had a great taste too.
In conclusion of my party of three outside of NYC escape winery crawl we had dinner at Piggy Bank in Beacon, NY. I had many piggy banks in my childhood, but it was always deficient and inadequate never filled with wealth. I was satisfied with the food and customer service. Our female server and male server Tim were both welcoming and attentive, but Tim was the man. He briefly chat with us noting that we are out-of-towners for ice breaker conversation starter. Tim was very welcoming to our party of three as I am obviously not a local resident who stick out like a sore thumb. I was very dismayed with my drink. Tim explained the past history of this building. There is no cellular signal. However, free WiFi access is available with password request. Wi-Fi network is "ThePiggyBank." The business name is Piggy Bank 2.0 in the former home of the original BBQ Piggy Bank. This retail space was the former home of a financial institution that defunct fifteen years ago, but the restaurant maintain the structures of the original large vault, vintage tin ceiling, and large windows are still in tact and visible. The restaurant contains the original red exposed bricks. Restroom facility is relatively clean. There are two WhistlePig Piggy Bank Rye, a limited edition, 10 year old straight rye whiskey packaged in an interactive, pig-shaped gold ceramic decanter bottle that functions as a working piggy bank located on a high bookcase behind the bar counter. Oh! Tim was very accommodating as I had to hurriedly exit to catch my MTA Metro North commuter rail, disappointedly return to NYC. The bill is distributed on a nuisance handheld digital device where you can choose gratuity of intervals of 18%, 20% or 22%. I am old school as I prefer to review my bill on printed paper. I did obtained my sales receipt on paper. No business cards are available when requested. The female server politely stated the unavailability of inability for business card as I inquired to request. It is here a self-realization for profound situational awareness that my piggy bank is full of wealth to create completeness. Buttermilk Chicken Fingers $16.00 Chicken fingers with BBQ sauce and fries. The chicken was moist due to buttermilk embedded. The chicken was piping hot that I was unable to consume until minutes later. The French fries were good as it already contained salt and it was not very thick. I have a high predilection for crinkle cut fries or shoe string fries as my preference. I could not finish my meal from being induced by my earlier wine intake. Lamb sliders special with salad $22.00 Three lamb slider burgers were a delight for my friend. The salad was light consisting of onion, dill and feta cheese. 8 oz. Smoked Brisket $24.00 It was well season and a joy accompanied with French fries. Salt and pepper rub was seasoned. Mint Condition $8.00 Mint leaves, lime juice, simple syrup, water, cranberry This is a non-alcoholic drink which is is served in a large martini glass in the same exact high level of sweetness and color of a alcoholic cosmopolitan cocktail. A cosmopolitan cocktail reminisce me of the TV show "Sex and the City" which in my young adulthood I have libation many cosmopolitans. Forward. My libation taste change with the passage of time. I was very dismayed with this drink because it is highly sweet heavily douse high content of syrup and cranberry. The sweetness from this drink linger for remnants in my mouth loosing interest for food. I could not finish. My party of three's pre-existing condition to conclude a day of winery tourism in New Paltz, NY, and Gardiner, NY all within the Hudson Valley region of NYS. Guinness $9.00 It was a joyful delight for my male friend. HV Enjoyer Lager $9.00 At the recommendation of our male server Tim, this craft beer contains a rating of 3.8 of 5, with 943 ratings and reviews on Untappd. It is a 5% ABV American lager brewed by Hudson Valley Brewery in Beacon, NY. read more

First thing I want to do is apologize to the Saturday afternoon manager who had to listen to my gripe about the $9.00 price for 2 small pieces of cornbread. Sorry . Oh, so you want a review? Well, even after all that rant, I must say, the food was great! And so was the service. The day manager I spoke of was also our server. She was great, it's not her pricing the cornbread . Her service was great and so was the way she handled herself with (my) issue. The ambience was cool, casual, and probably a fun night spot to go for a drink, they have a pretty big bar and bar area. So as a whole picture I would definitely go again. But if you're planning on going to Piggy Bank, plan on going to the bank first. It's reasonably priced, don't get me wrong, but the Sides and cocktails will get ya. I'll wrap this review up by saying, thanks to NYC tourism, all of Main St. feels they can charge NYC prices. The only good part is that we locals don't have to pay for a train ticket to eat like we're in NYC, but they do. read more
Pretty loud and lively here, but the servers were very quiet to get people food over just serving drinks at bar. The slider flight was very good for what it it was worth, first the slider were on the larger side not bite size, all the meats, the pork, chicken and brisket were juicy and well seasoned and generous with the portion. I asked for teller fries over the regular that come with the flight since seasoned fries rocks, the fries were good but I wish they more crispier. Bit disappointing they supposedly come with a cup a teller sauce and when I pointed out they forget my sauce that comes with it, I was charged for it. Kind of the principle that with if something forgotten is free, just give it no charge. The teller sauce was very good, I used it in sliders as well as the fries. The cornbread was kind of dry, but that honey butter made up for it. read more

Chef Adam (formerly of The Hog in Wappinger Falls) is now the executive chef here, and what a menu he has developed! From the appetizers to the main courses to the desserts, everything is authentic, fresh, and delicious. The wings are some of the best we've had anywhere, and the brisket was perfectly cooked and moist. Don't sleep on the Mac and cheese either! We sat at the bar and the bartenders were extraordinary, a great assortment of specialty cocktails, and all the regular liquors, with a lot of craft beers on tap and in the bottle. read more
