I love this place, free darts, pool in the back, good food until 10pm. I recommend the fish and chips. I believe this is a English pub not Irish as the other comments said, but I could be wrong. I have always found the patrons to be friendly and the staff very helpful. I live right up the street so, I would say this is not a place to bring a date because you would have 30 drunken Irish and English chaps hitting on her as the guy to girl ratio is pretty bleak. For my local spot this is it! Good luck trying to get them to turn on the Giants or Warriors if their is Soccer on. Soccer, GEESH.

• Pros: Plenty of seating and plenty of drink choices, food for around $10.
• Cons: Drunk soccer fans. No chicks besides the bar tenders and some dudes haggerd drunk chick.

Great neighborhood bar!

I went to the Pig the other night for the first time. We played a little darts and pool. The bartender was really nice (I think he was the owner) and the beer is cheap! $4 for a pale ale. It's a great place to hang out with friends.

• Pros: Nice people, good times, cheap beer!

A British-style pub in Laurel Heights with an international crowd.

In Short
This down-home spot has hunting bugles on the wall and ska bands on the jukebox--there's even a picture of a pig drinking beer, hung behind the bar like an employee-of-the-month. For sport, there's a dartboard and billiards table in the back room. In addition to a bevy of tap beers, there's also a food menu with items like shepherd's pie and black pudding.

Good place to start the night!

The P&W is probably the best bar in the world to have on your street, but not somewhere I'd recommend making a special visit. For the past couple of years, it's been a staple in the before-we-go-out activities-- a place to get the drinks going-- but not really somewhere I'd consider as a final destination. The food is good, there's punk and ska in the jukebox, and darts are free. Just don't expect to show up and meet your future spouse here by any stretch-- bad guy/girl ratio.

• Pros: Darts, Food, Beer
• Cons: old irish dudes , hanging out at bar, The guy/girl ratio

Great place to chill

I love this place! Sometimes on the weekends it can get crowded, but the food is great and the service is the best. Even when it is crowded it is a fun crowd. Go and you will feel like a regular

• Pros: Prices, Selection, Service
• Cons: None Really

Great for early-afternoon boozing and brunching, although the back pool room is intimidating and one can rarely find a seat. Stop by the billiards place next door ...
