I came here with a few friends for a quiet reunion drink one Friday evening. We had a friend visiting from abroad, we were in the neighborhood and liked the look of The Pig and Whistle. It's laid out nicely, with a good amount of seating and a decent selection of beers and spirits on offer as well. Staff were also friendly enough. Before long, we were all enjoying a beer and catching up with each other. My big issue was when I went up to get a few drinks a couple of hours in. We weren't going to be staying out much longer so I thought I'd switch to spirits. I ordered a double whisky for myself (Talisker, neat), a G&T (double Bombay sapphire) and a pint of ale. This came to £27.30. I must not...
Lovely pub but the staff make the experience feel very unwelcoming (aimed at the two young women working bank holiday Sunday). They so obviously did not want to be at work and were doing the utmost to get all the punters out of the pub ASAP so they could leave. We were asked a number of times to finish our pints though they had only called time at the bar not long before. Even when ordering a drink they made you feel uncomfortable if it was not convenient for them end of the day, don’t work in a customer facing industry if you feel like it is a chore to do such a task. As I said, it’s a nice pub but the staff really let this place down to the point that I don’t want to visit it or recommend...
I visit the Pig Whistle every year during the Wimbledon tennis fortnight for evening meals and a few beers 2 visits this year. Food is always good and the portions are substantial. Usually has a very lively but relaxed atmosphere, spilling into the beer garden and seating area outside at the front when in warm weather. Relaxing lounging area and tabled area inside. Staff are very friendly and welcoming and will readily engage in banter service is prompt and with a smile. I’d be a regular if not for the distance between the Pig and my home cos no way am I walking 500 miles for a pint, I do proclaim!
Made my way from Balham, ordered drinks, manager wanted credit card (I will not leave my credit card with ANYONE EVER) offered nationally accepted photo ID driving licence to leave behind bar, but they will not accept this but will accept a stolen/found credit card! WTF!! Refused to eat here until they adopt a 21st century security policy. On the plus side on our way back to Earlsfield Station we stopped at The Wandle (other end of Penrith road) excellent food friendly staff, a must, see my review. Book a table now
Having visited this pub a lot with our boys before, we had an extremely disappointing experience today. They have now stopped doing a children 's menu and told only option for kids is a smaller portion of fish and chips. Asked if they could do chicken strips off main menu for kids wth chips and was clearly told no. They then told off for our 3 year old for playing in the garden... 'kids should be sat down at all times ' apparently. It was a Saturday lunchtime. Will definitely not be visiting again!
Came here for an evening of light drinking, just to enjoy the atmosphere. We started in the garden, where you can get your own 'hut ' if there is space. Good selection of drinks (for me anywhere that has Thatchers cider, Mount Gay Rum and a good savignon blanc keeps me happy). The decoration is interesting, have a look through the pig paraphernalia. Service at the bar was really friendly and welcoming. We didn 't have food, but will go back to try some!
Went in for lunch with friends and from the minute we arrived it was fantastic.warm welcome from the barmaid who served us excellently delivered the food which was hot and fantastic on time and even though she appeared to be on her own took time to see if everything was ok. As I said food was fantastic which added to a pleasant afternoon
My husband and I absolutely love this place.. food is brill, fab drinks selection and the staff really make it. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a great time with fab food in a great atmosphere.. my little one is more than happy here too! Book a table now
Pig Whistle is a popular meeting place for a drink or tasty meal. There's always something happening here..games or music and the long-serving staff are friendly.
A great afternoon a relaxed atmosphere good selection of beers, wines and good food... sky sports as well for the football.
