    Inside has a very comfortable, rustic bar like appearance.
    Dan L.

    What a fun place to check out! I was looking for someplace different, when this stumbled across my feed. So I decided to go check out the blind pig. Pretty easy to find, you can't miss the rustic looking exterior with the blind pig in huge letters on top. There's a decent amount of parking, but I'll bet when this place gets busy it's tougher to find a spot. When you walk inside, the interior is very well kept and has a rustic bar-like feel to it, plenty of bar and high top seating as well as booths. I decided to order an iced tea. Something I've noticed about Canada, iced tea is usually a sweetened drink. Not like iced tea you get in the states. So just be aware of that if you're looking to get some iced tea. Regardless, it was very tasty and hit the spot perfectly. One thing I like about this place is they have a bunch of different specials throughout the week, the day I went the special was the brisket sandwich and side salad for $13.99 Canadian. I upgraded to the Caesar salad, and also ordered a side of KFC, or Korean fried Chicken for those of you in the know. Let me tell you something about that. KFC, absolutely delicious! How can you go wrong with fried chicken thighs with Korean BBQ sauce? You can't, that's what I'm telling you! The brisket sandwich was really really good, albeit just a tad dry. But I'm not deducting any points for that. It was absolutely delicious and worth every penny. Service was great, friendly staff, and everything came out as expected. Bottom line? I will definitely be back for that brisket sandwich. They also had some other specials so I guess I'm going to need to spend an entire week here and just eat my life away at the blind pig.

    BOURBON GLAZE PORK BELLY APP I 15.75

    We picked this place after reading many highly rated Google Reviews and seeing their Happy Hour Menu on a Sunday night. Service was great. He was quick, on the ball and very attentive. We ordered DRUNKEN MUSSELS: beer, garlic, ginger, onion, shallots, parsley, butter. These weren't good. The mussels were fishy, sandy and the broth was watery. Little flavor. BOURBON GLAZE PORK BELLY APP: cubed pork belly, bourbon glaze, homemade creamy coleslaw. This was delicious. BIG PIG BURGER: secret sauce, lettuce, aged cheese, pickles, onions. My partner said this was the most delicious burger he has ever had. It's their take on a Big Mac. I would give this another half star if they had music. We sat in the booths and there was no music in the back just silence. We would like to come back and try other items on the menu.

    Upon entering, I was told to grab a seat wherever I liked. I had to wait a bit for a menu as there was some confusion on who was serving me I guess. But ultimately, my waiter was very nice! I decided to order the wonton nachos and pear goat cheese salad. And a Pepsi (they carry Pepsi products; no Mountain Dew though). I didn't wait long for my food. My salad came out first. It was pretty good! The greens and onion were fresh. The house balsamic was excellent. The spiced walnuts were nice and sweet. The pears were too bland for the flavors of the salad and got lost in it but I appreciated knowing I was eating something so balanced! The goat cheese was good but would have liked just a tad more with it. Overall a good salad! The wonton nachos were ok. They didn't blow me away but it was cool to try something different with the wontons instead of tortilla chips. My teenager was happy to eat them! Overall, not a mind-blowing experience, but not a bad one either. If I came back, I would try a different combo of items I think. Atmosphere is very casual and has tables, booths, seats at the bar, and several TVs. Private parking lot for the plaza it's in.

    Fish and chips and whisky burger

    Review of The Blind Pig - Niagara Falls Stopped in at The Blind Pig while visiting Niagara Falls and had a great experience overall. My wife went with the fish and chips, and I had the whisky burger -- both were solid choices. The fish was crispy and flaky, and the fries were seasoned just right. My burger was juicy, cooked perfectly, and had that nice kick from the whisky glaze. We started off with the pork belly appetizer, which was rich, tender, and full of flavor -- definitely recommend that one. For dessert, we had the ice cream-filled hazelnut crepes, which were the surprise highlight. They were light, crispy, and not overly sweet -- a great finish to the meal. The atmosphere was fun and lively -- a little on the loud side, but that's to be expected in a pub setting. Lots of people chatting and laughing, but it still had a cool vibe and felt welcoming. Would definitely go back again. Great food, good drinks, and a casual, upbeat place to spend an evening.

    Harvest salad

    I reviewed the menu on Yelp before bringing the family here for lunch. We had the peach salad, the harvest salad, the kids pizza, the Caesar salad salad, and the big pig burger. The food was excellent. Everyone was very happy. If we come back to Niagara, we will likely eat here again.

I got into Canada early, so I decided to go have some lunch. I walked in, and immediately felt like I just came home. The bartender, this lovely young woman named Onya, came up and took my order. I ordered a black and tan. She suggested I go for the smooth black and tan which I did. It did not disappoint! I may have to have my black and tans like this for the rest of my life. I ordered a cup of the buffalo wing chowder, and she said it's one of the most popular items on the menu. I asked her to bring that out first before my Classic Caesar salad. Let me tell you something about that soup. Now I'm not a big soup guy, but I do like chowders, and this was the absolute best I've ever had. Had. I've had clam chowder all over the United States but man this one absolutely nails it! It has that buffalo wing flavor which just perfect and not overpowering. I should have gotten the bigger bowl of it instead of the cup. Now let's talk about the Caesar salad. It was absolutely perfect! It had the perfect ratio of dressing to lettuce, not just poured on top like most places but actually tossed. Onya said she did it herself, so massive kudos for her going above and beyond the call of duty. Overall this meal hit on all cylinders and did not disappoint. I will definitely be back here a couple more times while I'm in Canada. If you need to find me, you know where to find me. The bottom line? You really need to get the buffalo chicken wing chowder. It is absolutely an amazing soup and will change your life. And if you like a good classic Caesar, you can't do better than this one!

I was glad we sat further away because it would have interfered with conversation, but I appreciated the singing (just a little loud for me). I enjoyed my ravioli, and my friend was very happy with her baby back ribs. And if you're from USA, know that the iced tea comes sweetened.

This place has sweet locals in spades. But the food is just ok, and the beer selection is just mass-produced lagers. In all fairness, we didn't try the wings; we just had a bunch of appetizers.

She was friendly, pleasant, and chatty. She definitely enhanced our visit! And the food was totally awesome! It was our first time having poutine and I'm not sure it was standard (it had shredded cheese instead of cheese curds) but it was delicious! Like really really really good. The burger was juicy and thick. The fries were totally yummy. Kid #1 said the chicken parm sandwich was good, and I thoroughly enjoyed my Philly cheesesteak. The prices were totally reasonable, too!
