J. S.

For a Tuesday is was quite quiet, but that did not stop the 8 of us having a good fun time. The food was great, and also the staff were friendly to talk to and responsive. It's well worth checking out!

S. S.

When you are far from home it’s great to find a place that has the style of food you love. The food was pretty decent and honestly made me feel more at home as an American. The wait staff was fantastic. The music was good, but if you wanted to be authentic to Texas and also Cowboys, country is the music you should play. I just feel like people go to restaurants for more than just the food but for the atmosphere too. It should be said though, if it didn’t come out of a pit it isn’t BBQ. If it wasn’t slow cooked in a smoker, it isn’t BBQ. Putting BBQ sauce on items does not make it BBQ. Also, if you are going to claim the ‘American’ style you got to serve American style drinks with plenty of ice. Location is not exactly practical unless you are going and coming from work. I can imagine someone driving into the city just for BBQ.

N. N.

One of the best places to hang out as a group in London. An array of fun games and a crazy atmosphere. And above all of that is the food. The staff ensure you have all you need to have a memorable time.

Food, Service and Venue was amazing, my colleagues had a few issues with our booking due to covid, but Nico the general Manager was very helpful and did some amazing work to help shift our booking to different dates. The Beer pong area was so much fun and clean!! also the jugs of beer were a decent price. Would recommend to anyone up for a good night out.

M. C.

Delicious burger and chips. Fairly small selection of burgers and fried chicken, but excellently done and good value for money. Very friendly service too!

T.

Was recommended by some friends that have been when they had a more full menu with ribs and such. (Apparently COVID changed the menu a bit due to availability) For what was there, however, was great. The burgers were really good. Bit expensive total after drinks compared to some other nights out in London. But overall good. Service could have been a slight bit quicker but they were still very nice to us so we appreciate that.

T. M.

I booked a table for 11. Nico, the manager, sorted everything out in minutes, he made sure everything was right for what we wanted. All the staff made the extra effort to make sure we had everything we wanted, which wasn’t easy considering the size of our group. I’ll definitely be coming back. I haven’t been to many places in London where I’ve been looked after so much.

A. M.

Went with my office team. Nico was very hospitable and fun. I am vegetarian so i don't go in with a lot of expectations, but vegan food at Porky's was surprisingly delicious! My colleagues who ordered chicken and pork dishes mentioned the veg option was equally good if not better. The beer pong experience was amazing as well. A fun place to go with friends and colleagues.

T. B.

I love Porky’s! The manager and the employees set a very warm and welcoming environment. Highly recommend this place for groups of friends looking for some good burgers and fries and a good game of beer pong!

J. L.

Been here a few times and really enjoy the experience. Nice music, sport and great staff. Food is top as well and recommend the chicken burger!

C.

We arrived to a bustling lively environment and was seated quickly. There were 8 of us and the servers were attentive and paid attention to dietary changes within the orders. The food arrived hot and tasty. I especially liked the buffalo wings and the BBQ beans. The rib croquettes were a bit disappointing due to a lack of rib meat but everything else from the burgers to the steak was great. Beer pong was fun and a great way to end our evening.

G. B.

Great food, I really enjoyed the burger, and the service was amazing. Had some good banter with the servers. Will definitely be returning.

T. P.

We love Porky’s! 🐖 A really chilled informal bar/restaurant with a fun vibe. The food was great. I had the BBQ lunch platter and some catfish bites. Their lunch menu is a main, a side and a glass of wine/lager for only £10. Can’t complain! They’re SUPER dog friendly - to the point where our dog got a water bowl and some pulled pork. Thanks to Nico for making us feel so comfortable.

A. S.

Nice venue, friendly and helpful staff. The chicken wings are great. The burgers are okay. The menu is a little deceiving. The burgers say 2 pattys , but I found the pattys to be thin and the 2 make up what I would consider to be a normal sized patty. They didn't have ribs on the menu, no ribs at a place called Porkys seems odd.

J.

Went here for first time with my mate who is a regular. Food was was fab. Nice bar will return to try out the beer pong

L. M.

Absolutely amazing food.....the burgers were on another level & beer pong was a great way to finish the night. Would definitely visit again

t. C.

I ate here last week whilst visiting London. The food was absolutely fantastic and came very quickly. The staff were friendly and the price not bad considering the location. The chicken burger is amazing. I highly recommend the bacon and cheese croquettes as well.

O.

Fantastic experience would always recommend for a medium to large group. Amazing BBQ food and service, to the point where the manager sourced us some local coffee from a vendor so we could keep the vibes coming!! Brilliant beer pong experience too!!

L. A.

Porkys is one of my favourite places in London and I come here all the time. The manager is one of the most charismatic and attentive I have ever met and he’s one of the main reasons I keep coming back - along with the great atmosphere and delicious food of course! It seems like there are 100 Nico doing everything in this place - from taking orders to serving drinks to serving food and sorting out the beer pong (much fun!). I cannot recommend porkys and Nico enough !

A. B.

Amazing food, great staff niko is hilarious. It was a great night playing beer pong. The atmosphere can’t be beaten.

J. J.

Good food, and a nice selection of beer. It's more of a burger joint than a BBQ place though (which for some reason was my original impression). Staff was on point and mostly attentive

n. s.

We celebrated my partner’s birthday at Porky’s. What a fun day it was! We played beer pong and ate yummiest burgers! Guys you must try their burgers especially the Porky’s special one!

J.

HANDS DOWN.. the BEST CHICKEN WINGS I'VE HAD IN MY LIFE! if you like chicken wings, this is the place to be. I happened to stumble across this place with my friend and we've been going there ever since! Croquetes are also DIVINE! The owner makes everyone feel like they're at home and the staff are all lovely too.. beer pong looks fun can't wait to try that too! Much love to Porky's! Thank you for your kind hospitality. Always.

Our work team had a wonderful lunch down at Porky’s Bankside today. We were invited back after a negative experience previously and this time the whole place felt a class above. Steve, the new manager has the venue running like a well-oiled machine and together with the staff has made a venue that’s perfect for large groups and small tables alike. The atmosphere at Porky’s is extremely relaxed and the staff appeared to really be enjoying their work. They had all of our requests covered despite us being a table of 12 and were forthcoming with recommendations as well as anticipating our requests. There was water on the table upon our arrival and the manager Steve greeted us personally, helping to assure we kicked off lunch on a positive note. Our drinks orders were taken right away and the waiting staff were inquisitive and interested in what we ordered, providing suggestions and tasting notes. A range of starters were ordered for us at the table and this was a nice touch as it meant that everyone could get eating at once. The amount of starters we had made the main course a challenge! Between courses the waiting staff were helpful and efficient in clearing the table and kept refreshing water jugs which is something that doesn’t happen often enough in most restaurants. Mains consisted of burgers and ribs and the size doesn't compromise the quality. This is comfort food of the best kind and would be equally appealing in winter or on scorching day like today. All in all it was a very relaxing afternoon, the restaurant was busy but never felt chaotic, the music was great but never loud and food came out quickly and steaming hot. Simple touches like lots of sauce, napkins and a genuine concern for our experience made our time at Porky’s pass by in a flash. The only disappointment is having to go back to work for the afternoon. We will definitely be back and will be sure to recommend to other teams in our building. Thanks Porky’s, you guys nailed it! Ps. Great beer! Want to come back and drink the rest of the selection!

T. T.

I've been here twice, eating a Pork Sandwhich in 2016 and eating a Veggie Burger in 2021. Equally good in their respective categories! Good atmosphere and service, beer pong, good food, make it a stop if you're in the area!

S. F.

We've been to the Camden branch a number of times but this was our first visit to Bankside. Staff were really accommodating but unfortunately seated us by a table that arrived for a birthday - about 20 people and us two were in amongst them as they all arrived, loud and excited, which was understandable, but made us feel crowded and that we needed to leave quickly. But their fault but bad planning on the seating front. Food and drink was great (but the burnt ends should've been more burnt!)

A. d. K.

If there was a half star, I’d award it and give this restaurant a 3.5. It’s much better than your bbq chain restaurants, but not the most amazing food and dining experience. The ribs were ok -nice and tender, generous portion, and decent bbq sauce. Could have done with some more sauce as it was a bit dry at times. Sweet potato fries were not all cooked but good otherwise. Service was a bit up and down. In one instance, I took a knife from another table and the waitress ran to correct the now short cutlery supply showing she was ever so attentive, but then we waited forever for the bill and then two different people came to collect our payment because they clearly were not paying attention.

A. W.

Burgers were amazing and filled us right up! With friendly staff and beer pong for entertainment, we're definitely coming back here again.

M. C.

Really nice food, decent portions but not the biggest. Beers fairly expensive (even by London pub standards). Enjoyed a lovely piece of steak after EGX Rezzed though :-)

A. M.

The best Burger ever ❤️ love it and the staff very polite and kind! 10/10

E. A.

Really helpful staff, good buffalo wings, but it's £5 for a portion of frozen chips... Also, isn't a BBQ joint? Only does burgers and wings, no BBQ food...?!

L. L.

Great food and great beer, tucked into a quiet little side street you might have passed hundreds of times. I certainly had. Superficially (very) similar to another well- known pig-logoed American pulled-pork-purveying restaurant chain, Porky's leans slightly more towards the bar end, with great beers and pitchers etc. available. Menu selection is very meat-heavy, but that's what you come to a place like this for. Also shows sport on the screens dotted around the bar. Not really my personal preference, but was accompanying friends who wanted to watch football ('soccer' in this case, not American) whilst enjoying beer and ribs. I certainly couldn't argue with the latter two and it was a great place to combine the three.

G. C.

£8 Lunch time menu is worth perusing before ordering pulled pork or ribs Porkys are famous for. Rib meat sandwich is superb and has all the flavour of ribs without the mess.

N. N.

Fantastic venues with big tvs, very good food and friendly staff. We booked a beer pong area which is a plus, solid tables and good fun. The chicken wings are probably the best I've ever had in London. Very good vibes and we will be back soon. Thanks Porky's

C.

Not bad but the burgers were nothing special. Not a bbq place at all, just a burger joint

F. D.

Serving the best popcorn chicken I've ever come across, this Memphis inspired dining experience is go big or go home. Friendly staff and huge value-for-money style plates left an impressionable experience on a 5'2" woman (trying to keep up). Whilst the bbq half chicken, baked beans and chips were seasoned perfectly, the atmosphere and industrial aesthetic of drinking and dining, made Porkie's Bankside an inviting and refreshing place to escape the weekend sun.

A. L.

This was such a nice place, I was on my one and when I asked to sit at a table for 4 in a corner, was told they get busy I felt I wasn't to sit there. Following this food was lovely though.

F. U.

Amazing night out with very good burgers and chicken wings, friendly security and manager made us feeling very welcome. Our waitress did mistaken a few items in our order and need to be more attentive to her customers service but the manager sort it out very fast. Overall we had an amazing time and we will be back soon. Best beer pong set up in London.

C. A.

Went with children. Nice food. No children's meals so worked out very expensive. Clean.

C. S.

Lovely staff and good food. It is described as a dimer style restaurant but in reality its more of a sports bar. We were expecting a quieter meal but got screaming rugby fans. If you like that then it's great. It just wasn't what it seemed to be according to online advertising.

S. B.

Amazing food & service. The Flat White Martini Cocktail is delicious. Also they are (well behaved) dog friendly.

N. Y.

Unfortunately, they didn't have ribs due to sourcing issues so if you're trying to pull up for their great ribs I'd call in to double check whether they have them. The wings were pretty disappointing, incredibly thick sauce that's overly sweet for me. Mac & Cheese wasn't as thick as I'd hope either but servers were super friendly.

J. W.

Great food, great music, great atmosphere and amazing, friendly staff. We came across it by chance and will definitely be going back!

L. B.

Stopped in after reading the menu and was not disappointed! Had my little girls with me and they both loved the chicken burger and I couldn’t agree more. We all finished our entire meals and the service couldn’t be beat. This will be a regular stop when we’re on this side of the river.

B. B.

Good fun. Decent burger options Chicken Wing Habenero Roulette - quite the laugh 😃

P. O.

My mum does not usually eat burgers, so was a real surprise to see her chowing down on the asian burger on our visit to Tate Modern.... Not quite savoury enough for her tastes (too sweet), but the passionfruit mocktail I think made up for this one glitsch..🥤🍹🍔

E. D.

What a burger!!! very juicy and full of flavours. Happily affordable and only 1 min away from the riverside.

B. J.

Great spot for some BBQ and a great atmosphere with beer pong tables and, in general, quite a busy crowd. If you are up to it you can try your luck at finishing their big plate of BBQ in under 30 minutes to win a t-shirt. The also serve some really nice drinks and the beer menu is good.

E. N.

This was a nice pub to have a burger and drink at. Definitely worth a stop for lunch, they even have some lunch specials.

A. I.

Really friendly host, atmosphere relaxed and food is for guilty pleasures!

J. P.

The atmosphere in this restaurant is great, unfortunately though the service was not great. It was very slow and rushed. I had cajan catfish, it was one fillet that came with a sweet potato rosti, unfortunately the rosti was very undercooked. I wouldn't shout about this restaurant, its not the best bbq about.

L. G.

Great bar, with a fantastic atmosphere. The owner Nico makes you very welcome and all the staff are friendly and attentive. For a great time, with a homely feel well worth a visit.

M. D.

Nice little bbq spot, ideal for casual dining before, after or over a couple of drinks.

J.

Food was ok a little over priced. Waiter thought he was funny and wasn't, chatted to much.

J. M.

Great team, tasty food and good beer. Had a lovely chat with Nico - can’t wait to see it after the rebranding!!

C. F.

Went in for a Groupon deal, mac and cheese was out of this world amazing so so good, a little disappointing though was the porkys burger seemed really bland and lacking in flavor which was a shame

P. J.

Great food, great beers, great service and great value. Amazingly even my vegan guest had a wonderful meal.

T. H.

I always have a great time at Porky's! The food is amazing and there is a good range of drinks and the staff are very friendly and welcoming. The place looks amazing after the refurb and there has always been a great atmosphere when I've visited.

J.

Great staff and decent food, ribs were a little over cooked but everything came out warm and fresh.

J. S.

Great atmosphere and beer. Customer service 10/10.

A. B.

Lovely Saturday night vibes and music , the manager is really hands on , polite and mannered staff.Had the chance to see the owners dedication towards the business behind the bar. Could not expect more , felt like being part of the family.

P.

Nice location and great pork. It's expensive though and there's an extra 12.5% service charge. Beer pong if you want it. Great lunch mnu options from £9

t. o.

Very, very friendly staff, and very delicious food. Would definitely come back again.

A. J.

Fantastic place. Great atmosphere and very good burgers.

J. P.

Ashantia has provided the most fantastic service in this place before we entered we had tried about 10 other places that are under staffed stressed and management were just rude to a me and other as soon as we came in we were welcomed with joy security were great and the manager politely spoke to me like I belonged in the restaurant, Ashantia's service was so good I think she should get a specialised gift from the company if they want to keep having great customer service.

M. C.

When arriving at the venue all the staff are incredibly welcoming and relaxed and take you through everything the place has to offer. After filling up on delicious house smoked BBQ food we signed up for a couple rounds of beer pong, probably the best addition to any meal you could have. The table service is exceptional bringing everything we needed to for our meal and beer pong games straight to us with no fuss. Will definitely be going again!

C. M.

Very nice food, especially chips, but a bit expensive, especially for the location. Staff are nice and good atmosphere. Worth stopping for lunch if you're passing by.

D. G.

Lovely food!! Fast service!! Lovely staff!! Not expensive!! Will certainly return very soon!! Thank you

E. S.

It's my favorite local! The staff are the friendliest, most energetic bunch of people you'll meet. Would definitely recommend the Quinoa and Beetroot burger.

g. c.

The food was very tasty indeed. The staff seemed really friendly and efficient. We enjoyed the "beer pong" games as well.

A. E.

The food was really great and the staff were very friendly. The beer pong setup is ace and was a great way to finish off a tasty meal

C. M.

Lovely staff who are really friendly and attentive. Food is lovely... Especially the pulled pork... yummy. Nice atmosphere, drinks good too. Well worth a visit, was worth coming off the beaten track for this little gem.

M. Š.

Great taste burgers. American style restaurant. You can play beer pong or just take a food like steak or hamburger. And the most famous american music of all The time is playing there!

S. N.

Super fun night out with friends and the bartender even made us cocktails that weren't on the menu

N. H.

Hidden little gem. 2nd visit and loved it just as much. Fantastic food, lovely venue and wonderful staff. Manager, Nico, making such a lovely effort with customers to make them feel appreciated and welcomed. Can’t recommend this place enough. The best bbq wings we’ve ever had!! Will be visiting again soon.

E. C.

Beer pong is expensive for two but very fun! Will come again!

P. C.

The food was great. Big portions of BBQ meat, ribs, burgers, coleslaw, chips and sauce. It was a Sunday afternoon so the place was relatively quiet. Our first waitress was okay but a big shout out for the manager who entertained our kids, brought them badges and made sure they had a great time.

K.

Good food, friendly staff, not a bad place to have a catch up.

S. S.

Friendly staff. Ribs, cooked well but not much flavour, needed drenching in bbq sauce to have any taste to them. Fries are excellent, chicken was okay but slightly dry and average. All in all nothing about this place strikes me as better than average, and all the food needs more seasoning. What they’re trying to do with beer pong etc is a good idea I think however.

C. F.

Initially booked this place because of a voucher my partner and I had for it - and so glad we did, we will definitely be back again! The prices are super reasonable, staff and Manager are incredibly friendly and hospitable, and we were made to feel so at ease and welcome. Thank you Porky BBQ Bankside for a lovely Wednesday evening.

J. B.

Had a wonderful lunch today with my family. Service was super, food was great, corn bread was AMAZING! They made accommodations for my child with allergies and even gave us a great dinner recommendation for later in the day. Overall great experience would highly recommend. Thanks guys for the T-shirt too!!

E. D.

Lacks any atmosphere. The girl forgot our drinks. I make better pulled pork at home. Disappointing but reasonably priced.

D. U.

Excellent food, quick service. A little loud but worth it! Basically what Bill Wyman's Sticky Fingers used to be.

C. C.

Good food. Big portions. Has beer pong in the back making for a great atmosphere :-)

A. H.

Great place, lots of space with friendly staff. Tables available to play beer-pong etc. So great place for a birthday drinks/get together. Food is delicious with really great burgers - recommend the pork burnt ends. But as the meat is the main attraction don't bother with getting the salad - its fine but doesn’t compare to the rest of the food. Nice drinks but the bottles of Prosecco are a little pricey of you miss happy hour.

M. K.

Went there for lunch. The food was delicious, the staff were welcoming and fast. Can definately recommend.

s. j.

Katie, our server was fantastic. She knew the menu well, was helpful and attentive. She helped make our evening a memorable one. The food was good but our chips were served cold. This was quickly rectified though. The kids loved it and we would definitely go back.

A. B.

What a place to relax and enjoy a nice burger. I had the Porky burger , the signature one and it is just a real delight. All that in a really good atmosphere and a lovely service. I'll be back for the beer prong provided as well....heard that the manager was always up for a challenge.

L. M.

Great place to meet & eat. My husband and I had a delicious meal, gigantic tasty burger, super sides and ribs platter with pulled pork and brilliant beans. Lovely citrusy beer and very reasonably Priced cocktails. The guys and girls waiting tables were knowledgeable, helpful and fun. The atmosphere was very upbeat and happy. The background music is loud but you can still have a conversation. I had a fantastic time here and look forward to returning in March, next time we are in London. Keep up the good work. Definitely recommended for a great American Diner experience.

A. V. B.

Delish food and drink. The chicken wings were very tasty and the burger melted in my mouth. Nico was fantastic. His service and friendliness was above and beyond the normal. Very professional chap. Also, the dogs lived the place too!

D. H.

Best customer service of any bar I've ever been to in London

M. C.

Went for a work lunch. Had half baby back ribs with fries and extra pulled pork which tasted really nice. Good atmosphere. Service was a little slow and chaotic when it came to payment. We were somehow charged 2 extra meals meaning that we had to come back after work to receive a refund on those. Would recommend with smaller groups or larger groups if you pre plan what everyone is having to make the payment process easier.

M. R.

I feel like 3 stars is a little low but I can't do 3 and a half. We ordered bbq chicken, flat iron steak and ribs. The ribs were probably the best. Very generous but needed more seasoning. The flavour of all the dishes were pretty muted and not special. Everything seemed like it was lacking something, either spiced or salt or both. The chicken was fine but needed lots of bbq sauce to be interesting. The sweet potato fries were quite boring but the regular fries were perfect. Really crispy and tasty. The cocktails were lovely but the happy hour only allows you to pick two of the same cocktail from just two on the happy hour menu. Sort it out. I wouldn't suggest going out of your way to eat there. But if you pass it and your hungry it won't be bad. Just not amazing.

R.

Very nice food and nice manager. Offered great service when there had been some complications with the booking. Was full just after a burger and fries. Would recommend for groups but can get quite loud but you can still hear you and your friends across the table. But if you dont like noise at all, would not recommend.

M. M.

Go, go, go! Could not recommend this place more! Delicious food, great atmosphere and wonderful staff! This is our go to place when we are in London. If you like American style food (burgers etc) this is the place for you plus with the beer pong tables it's a great place to hang out with friends, drink and then have some delicious food.

F. F.

I had the Passion Me Woo Woo mocktail £4.50, the southern salad with pulled pork £11 and cheesecake £5 for dessert. All tasted good. The cheesecake was expensive as it was quite a small slice. Cool decor and friendly staff.

S.

From Canada and this place hits home! Recommend to all North Americans visiting and to locals who want to try something different! Amazing food, personally love the baby back ribs and the Mac & cheese! The service is great with an amazing atmosphere. Best mojito I have ever had so try that! Also you will be right by the bank side so lots to see aswell!!

E. W.

I like this place! They have great dishes, their menu is nice, The chief cook in that restaurant is an expert, I like very much eating all their dishes. The dishes are consistently good, the service towards the visitors is efficient. I visit often this restaurant and I was never discontended. I highly recommend it.

o. y.

Wonderful food and welcoming staff with smiles on their faces at all times. Definitely recommend, best wings in London

M. K.

I am a recent relocation to London, I happened across Porky’s while walking back to my temporary stay hotel. Being an American I am was intrigued. The service I received by Roberto when I walked in the front door was very nice. He greeted me immediately and seats me at an available table. This place boasted about Memphis style BBQ and I was skeptical until I had their full rack of Ribs!!!!!!!! AMAZING!!! As an American in London it was great to have some amazing BBQ from home. Nico the manager came over and he and I talked about ribs and bbq. If you want great traditional American BBQ in London, you have to go see Nico at Pork’s BBQ. I have seen the other negative reviews but did not experience that when I was there. The food is amazing and I have been back several times because of the service and the wonderful food.

J. H.

Visited here for dinner and drinks with friends. The food was absolutely sublime. The ribs were to die for, succulent and fell of the bone. The service was attentive without being over bearing. Drinks were also reasonably priced. We played beer pong after our meal and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The staff & managemnt here are great & made our evening one to remeber for all the right reasons. We shall definitely be back!! Highly reccomend this place to all.

J. B.

Wasn't a place I planned on eating, but when me and my girlfriend walked past and saw the express lunch menu, we decided to give Porky's a go. We certainly didn't regret it, I had the half rack of ribs and it must be up there with some of the highest quality food I've had. Big thumbs up to Porky's BBQ.

f. a.

Friendly staff and amazing food. I recommend their lunch deal and their chicken burgers!

L. M.

Honestly one of my best meals in London. SUPER nice staff and AMAZING burgers. We played beer pong and then ordered cocktails and those were great too. I don't have a SINGLE complaint about this place. I would recommend it without hesitation to anyone I know

C. B.

Porky's BBQ has a funny, amazing, nice, caring, generous and very communicative general manager. I can only recommend you to go there, because we laughed until our belly hurt and we loved nico's (the general manager) stories. The food and the drinks are also delicious and the location is just great. You can also play beer pong here! 😁 The whole team is very nice and friendly and we would come back anytime. If you don't come, you are missing out on something!!!

D. T.

Was called over to a waiting table almost right away by a really friendly waiter. Order was taken within five mins and the most amazing steak arrived not long after. Great venue, fantastic staff, excellent food. I'll be stopping by again for sure.

J. H.

A nice selection of American inspired dishes and some decent beers. The food is a bit pricey for average quality. They do have beer pong if you are in the mood but the tables are cramped and I saw one table collapse with full cups on it.

A. B.

Had a great experience here. We had an incredible waitress who is Italian and full of life and warmth. She even went so far as to run down the street and get an expresso for someone at our table - unbenounced to us - because she had had a conversation with him about good Italian coffee. She made us feel so welcome. The food was great. Nice to have BBQ in London. The ambiance was also cool.

K. S.

So happy Porky's Bankside has reopened after lock down. We had the Buffalo Wings which were great as were the new burgers. Good beers on draft too, we'll be back

A. B.

This place is a hidden gem, great food and wonderful staff. The atmosphere that they create is that of come one come all, it really makes you feel welcomed in a new city if you are a tourist. The location is beautiful and my family and i were more than pleased, we would come back anytime.

B. O.

Me and my friends have been going to porkys for years now. The menu has changed a lot since then and they have added some really great items on top of what they had before. We tend to come here whenever we have a friends birthday. As always the service was amazing, the atmosphere was amazing and the food was really good. Having a bbq style restaurant that also allows you to play beer pong with quality beer, with a bunch of friends on the southbank, what more could you ask for!

B. B.

This place is amazing. You can instantly tell that one of the owners is American as the atmosphere, bourbon selection, and food are spot on. We ended up visiting twice. If you have been traveling for a bit and want a bit of taste of home, definitely check this place out. Then go get some groundling tickets at the Globe!

D. J.

Yesterday was our first time we went to this fine restaurant. But It is absolutely not the last. We had a good time with the good service, with the excellent cooking and fine drinks and with the honest payment. We will absolutely come back soon.

K. S.

Great staff and great food. What's not to love. K💖

G. C.

Omg the best in London:)) the food is extremely delicious!!! Complements to the Chef!!! Wonderful staff and Nico is a brilliant host we felt at home all the time...our small dog loves Porkys!!! Thanks a lot for everything ;) Peter, Ela and Bella woof woof

L. *.

This place is tucked away close to Tate Modern and Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, it was a nice atmosphere, very sports bar interior which was cool. I really like the menu and chose a bbq jackfruit option which was very nice. I would recommend and I will return again too!

D. M.

I was with a big group and the service was fast, personal and excellent. The food was delicious and the drinks flowed for many hours, which allowed us to utilise the restaurant's 'beer pong' tables. All the while Sky Sports was on in the background. A quite brilliant Saturday afternoon experience in a wonderful location.

Great food. Memphis style BBQ with an English twist. As a BBQ lover from the US I was not disappointed. Friendly staff and a good atmosphere. Reasonably priced. Some of the burgers are exceptional. Tip try the Sticky Rub 01 BBQ sauce.

The Real Deal BBQ in London! By sheer luck, we came across this BBQ place as we walked near the new Globe Theater in Bankside. The vibe is fun & the menu brought us in with such variety: Buttermilk Breaded Chicken, Pulled Pork, Baby Back Ribs and lots of creative Burgers! We're from Texas; we know bbq: Texas style, Memphis style, KC style...it's all delicious when done right! Nico does his Memphis style bbq so well that we have eaten here twice in 2 days. We tried the Pulled Pork, Porky Burger, Gus's Chicken sandwich & Baby Back Ribs- All the best we've had since leaving the states 3 weeks ago! My husband actually said the chicken sandwich was probably the best he's ever had...high praise from a guy who picks chicken over all most of the time! Our server was fun, attentive and skilled. The bar has all the variety you could need- even great cider! Thanks Nico for such a great place to hang in!

l. f.

Me and my friends had such a good time there we were supposed to only have dinner but then the general ambiance lead us to play beer pong. The food was really good and the people that work there were really helpful. Great place to have fun and eat I highly recommend

d. p.

Looks like a decent place but was empty the Sunday we went. Food was ok. I've had better at other BBQ places. Staff were great however very fun. Beer pong is good fun also

O. Z.

Came in with the boyfriend, best burger I had in my life (I had the chilli burger), my boyfriend took the ribs - juicy, full of meat, perfectly cooked. Service was excellent as well. For sure we are gonna come back!

S. S.

We went as a large group after theatre show. Staff were friendly and polite. Not much choice on drinks. Food was mostly good but one person's chicken was burnt ! They did exchange it with a bigger better portion.And did apologise. Prices were average for London !

S. B.

Had such a great time here last night. The food was fantastic, but the service was just brilliant. So friendly and accomodating, from both the waitresses and the bar staff. Can't recommend this place highly enough.

D. A.

What a surprise, being so close to the city my expectations weren’t overly high, but the food was really good and the service was awesome!

S.

I normally don't write many reviews. However, the food was great, freshly cooked very tasty, well presented and an excellent environment. A special mention to Nico, for his warm and welcoming service which gives you that all around complete experience... would highly recommend!

G. A.

The lunch specials was good value although mine didn't contain much meat and we couldn't change the fries from ordinary to sweet potato. Having said that the food was nice. I would have given it a four but the waiter spilt coke all over me lol.

S. F. L.

Jesus this place is dirty. But in a good way. Whatever you order, order a plate of burnt ends. Even if burnt ends are in your main meal, order more. You won't regret it. Or get bacon mac & cheese also which is equally as dirty, if not more. The place itself is pretty straight forward. Saying that, they've got around 2 or 3 large tables to play beer pong which is good pre or post food. Good for media lunches and all that sort for stuff.

a. l.

We have been there with few friends and we love the place ! Had some burgers and cocktails which was amazing and we finished by playing beer bong. We had so much fun !!! The staff was lovely, we cant wait to go back there.

P. B.

Fantastic evening food was amazing beer pong was crazy funny, laughed till my sides split.

S. B.

Food was nice, good flavor. Food came out fast and wasn't lacking in size. However there was a piece of foil stuck at the end of the meat and the paint was chipping off from the cup they put the fries in. Bit of a shame really cos I did love the food.

R. H.

Friendly, relaxed atmosphere. Food was served quickly (although we were there at 4.30pm and place was quiet). Food is priced for the location but is portioned well and servers were all very helpful. Note that a service charge is automatically added to your final bill.

W. W. K.

Great for a quick meal that has a lot of meat. Pretty tasty food. It can get a bit loud on busy evenings with the ping pong table inside the venue. Don't have the milkshakes because they only look nice but very bland. Like weak strawberry milk.

S. K.

From a veggies perspective, obviously a lot of meat - but the veggie burger was delicious - kind of like a veggie patty. The BBQ/chili sources adds a massive kick. I was really surprised by this place because it's initially tucked away on a side street, but is really popular, and is great for large groups. The burger is really good value for money, and they had some good beer on tap choices.

M. C.

Good décor and atmosphere, Porky's offers the usual 'trendy' BBQ style restaurant. While staff were attentive at first, we struggled to get attention for more drinks. The food portions are a good size, and we ordered three sides to share between the two of us. I found the ribs a bit on the tough side and the condiments were nice, but not amazing. The homeburger was delicious and beefy with lovely brioche buns. It's good, but there are nicer places for the BBQ experience in London.

Z. H.

The standard BBQ affair. The food was good though not extraordinary. Though they had a rich selection of shots and drinks which helped the eve. The even had beer pong tables and provided the pitchers and cups. That and the friendly staff warrants this place an extra star.

E. C.

This place gives awesome service and delicious menu. One of my favourite places in the city. The food and drinks arrived rapidly and the rates are affordable. Will definitely recommend this place.

B. P.

Being American in London, it's hard to find a decent BBQ place here. But this is it! This is the real deal BBQ place! I had the BBQ pulled pork burger, it was £12 but the burger was HUGE. I couldn't finish it all and had to take it home with me. They also had a similar BBQ pulled pork dish that didn't include the bun, which I forget the name of, but it was similar type of meat but with no buns. Again, massive amounts of delicious pulled pork! The meat was tender and the flavours were intense. It also had some amazing pickled vegetables on the sides.

J. B.

Good offering in terms of BBQ but slightly disappointing to have run out of two popular beers at lunchtime. Deceptively large amount of seating considering the small size of the storefront, and food came relatively quickly compared to other restaurants in the area considering it was a lunchtime.

M. S.

Stopped in for a light meal before an afternoon show at the globe. Three people shared the rib tips, mac and cheese, and the chicken salad with blue cheese dressing. We enjoyed everything. The rib tips had a good kick to them.

J. A.

The restaurant has been done up really nicely. Went here with a TimeOut voucher for unlimited BBQ and was very full by the end. The burnt ends were particularly nice, however a star was lost as the ribs (in my opinion) weren't the best. Would go back and get the burnt ends though!

J. M.

Amazing food and amazing service. Went to Porky’s for food and cocktails with my partner, lovely place to eat or just have a drink. Got talking to the manager Nico and all the staff, very friendly and welcoming people, couldn’t praise them enough. Highly Recommend

J.

Friendly staff, good music, and their alcoholic milkshakes were delicious...

A. E.

Lovely food and very friendly service, we got accommodate by the manager on a very busy time without waiting long. The service was fast and we had so much fun chatting to the staff....best ribs I ever had in London we will be back soon for the exciting beer pong game. Thanks Porkys

D. B.

I went with a fairly large group who had reserved a couple tables. It was perfect for a group on the weekend bc it was spacious and not too loud so you could hear each other speak. The food was alright. Good happy hour.

J. T. D. H.

Erika beautiful wonderful staff and very very helpful I'd give 6 stars but I can't however this young lady needs a tip and pay rise ASAP! Get to it x :):):):)

N. T.

Beer pong was so much fun, the staff were amazing! And the wings were delicious. Will be back (probably every weekend)!

J. H.

Fantastic place. Will be coming again for sure.

N. S.

Great place for all things meat. What's more, it's close enough to the river to be convenient when visiting the South Bank, but far enough away that the tourists have found it. The burger here is good, but BBQ really is the way forward. That, with a game of beer pong and a pickle back shot alongside your bourbon. USA! USA!

R. H.

Had the ribs when I went there. Meat was a bit dry. With the main dish (which was priced more than £15), there was no side dish so you have to buy it separately. I have to say that are better and cheaper places with bbq type of food in London

S. F.

Meeeeeeaaaaaaaaattt! They sell meat. A lot of it. I had the burger with pulled pork and bacon. Not gonna lie, our waiter seemed a little flat, and brought me normal fries rather than sweet potato fries, but I was too hungover to change them. Still, the burger was lovely. I'd maybe go for ribs next time.

Y. Z.

Food was good but does not stand out above the plethora of other southern BBQ restaurants around. Likewise service And atmosphere were both pleasant but decidedly average. Good option if you happen to be in the area and want a meaty feed.

R. W.

Food was average but service was great

G. R.

Too crowded, beer pong table near toilets seem a poor choice, and tables are crammed next to the other so playing having fun is almost impossible. Food comes in generous portions and overall nice, staff is friendly but very busy.

R. S.

Great wings and burger!

E. N.

Amazing food, incredibly accommodating for a group of 33. Very relaxed and child-friendly. We'll be back for more 6 nations watching - thank you!

J.

Mediocre food with mildly incompetent service. We ordered 4 slabs of baby back ribs plus a few sides. Two slabs were fine, 2 were more like slabs from fat teenaged pigs not baby back - big boned, not trimmed of fat, not tender. The waiter noticed we hadn’t finished and asked- we explained and pointed out the fatty slab. Waiter went to talk manager, came back and said there was nothing he could do- pigs are fatty. Well not true. You trim the fat with a thing called a knife. Then cook and serve it. Magic. Anyway no magic here just mediocre Food.

D. M.

D. M.

Really good ribs and burned ends. Prices were reasonable for central London. It was fairly quiet mid week at 6pm when we visited. No need to wait for a table.

M. M.

Nice friendly staff but a bit slipshod. Forgot a starter and a main so had to wait while they were prepared. Overall a pleasant experience

R. H.

Friendly, relaxed atmosphere. Food was served quickly (although we were there at 4.30pm and place was quiet). Food is priced for the location but is portioned well and servers were all very helpful. Note that a service charge is automatically added to your final bill.

R.

Great ribs, kieran and nicole were great. Highly recommend

J. E.

Americans! Feeling homesick? Tired of trying weird food? Skip McDonalds and head here! Most authentic American food this side of the Atlantic! Their french fries are cooked to golden perfection, their burgers are juicy and delicious, their hot wings are hot, and the pulled pork savory & tender. 5 stars!

N. J.

Fine for a few people to catch up bit the buffalo wings were a bit odd.

E. B.

Has it ever happened to you, one of those days when your primal cravings urge you to devour an entire plate of grilled meat? If the answer is yes, this is the place to go in London! For people with big appetites

J. M.

Burger was amazing. I had 1 and a half burgers with bacon and pulled pork 🙄 staff is very very good

R. C.

What huge portions and Southern Hospitality! Chef manager Nico is a sweetheart looks Iranian is Italian. This is the place for Memphis dry rub pork ribs!

L. P.

Good decor and chilled out. Fun atmosphere and good vibes. Staff were friendly and offered drink suggestions. They also have beer pong here

T. H. (.

Great place for a quick bite to eat, good selection of beers and food if you like american dining. Very good atmosphere and not to expensive given the location.

Wonderful traditional pub at a very modest price. You can enjoy a delicious sandwich and a beer for 10 pounds or a steak and a beer for 13.

R. C.

The pork rib was to die for! The chicken wings were off the hook! But the past cured beef was dry and was a shock. I expected so much better and wae hugely disappointed! I will be back again so lets wee what its like

A. B.

Really nice atmosphere. Meat was a tad dry, but was amazing the last time I went so I'm going to put it down to them having a bad day. Beer pong was so much fun.

j. w.

Amazing fun playing beer pong!

D. D.

Loved it. Staff were brilliant and the food was amazing. Such quick service. They had to deal with this abusive, entitled customer called James and handled it very well.

S. T.

Baby back ribs were fairly good for taste, just enough spice however was also dry on some sections. Waiters had trouble understanding menu orders

D. C.

The BBQ Feast was amazing! They literally give you more meat than chips. Very friendly and talkative staff, that was nice. Really enjoyed my visit.

J. C.

Everything was acceptable and I would visit it again should the opportunity arise. It's like Tennessee BBQ as envisioned by a marketing team and food recipes made by a trained chef. As an American visiting the best analogy I can think of is this is what the English find when they go to an "English" pub in America.

E. B.

Has it ever happened to you, one of those days when your primal cravings urge you to devour an entire plate of grilled meat? If the answer is yes, this is the place to go in London! For people with big appetites

T. A.

I was out with my sister's for the day, one of whom is severely disabled and has a special diet, Porky's were so accommodating with us and allowed us to warm up my sister's food which was a true Blessing. On top of that the food was 👌🏾. Highly recommended!!!!!

A. S.

Food really hit the spot, atmosphere was lively, and manager Nico was fantastic making sure we had a great evening! Best popcorn chicken I've ever had.

R. D. D. l.

Really good restaurant, I had the baby back ribs today it was amazing, cooked on perfection. Very friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommend.

J. H.

This is a fun place to go, the beer pong is a nice addition and the BBQ is good. But it is difficult to shake the feeling that it is too corporate and cynical for the image its trying to portray. It is also a bit expensive for what it is.

A. A.

Loved it, such amazing food!!!!!

G. M.

Great atmosphere. I came with some mates to play beer pong and we had a blast. Food is decent southern fried tgis style grub

T. W.

Very authentic & delicious Memphis BBQ! Juicy & flavorful pulled pork sandwiches. Manager was very attentive to his customers and knowledgeable about his food & industry.

R. C.

What huge portions and Southern Hospitality! Chef manager Nico is a sweetheart looks Iranian is Italian. This is the place for Memphis dry rub pork ribs!

R. M.

Amazing food with fun and attentive staff. Great atmosphere, would highly recommend!

C. B.

Great burgers, huge TV to watch the games and overall great atmosphere.

a. s.

My husband and I had bacon burger and a chicken burger. The chicken burger was a little tiny with less ingredients in it, however the bacon burger was just yum. The fries are good as well. We had Livewire IPA

R. H.

Went here from Shakespeare theatre. Awesome food, price level is medium. Not much of a selection of alcohol, But a great place to dine after a play.

D. B.

Great lunch deal, quick service and great location. 2 minutes walk from the pier.

J. H.

Top staff, amazing bunch! Good drinks and amazing food. Very good day out. Best place for beer pong in London :)

J. A. B.

Really enjoyed the food. I had the pulled pork. We ate in the upstairs area which suffers from also being the waiting area so it made it quite cramped. 4 stars is for the quality of the food

P. N.

Had the pulled pork which was delicious. Nice atmosphere and good service. Helen our waitress was very attentive and speedy.

M. R.

This is an amazing place to eat, but also just for a few drinks by the Thames, just by bankside, the food is fantastic and extremely reasonably priced, portion sizes are very generous, the staff are very friendly and helpful with information regarding the area, you must try the beer pong as well

L. S.

Atmosphere is really great here. Food is great and staff are very friendly. Only thing is when it's busy there is a long period for waiting for food. Other than that I would recommend people to come here.

S. C.

Beer pong and pulled pork, what's not to love?! Entrance area can get congested when lots of people are playing beer pong, but everyone's happy to get out of the way when needed. Food was quick and tasty. Great for groups

S.

Good place for a lunch time meal. Good beers on offer and the food is pretty good. Service is usually pretty quick too.

T. S.

Great food and I don't like pork that much. I had a burger with pulled pork on top which was great. Good servings and staff with very nice even offering for a phone charger as my battery died.

I. J.

Amazing service and food. Really a place to visit. Especially if your into classic rock music.

E. H.

Good BBQ food washed down with a range of IPAs. Beer pong is available too for the more adventurous. Good prices compared to other things on offer on the South Bank.

P. H.

Chicken wings and ribs were lovely. Shame you can't choose how your burger is cooked as the other half's turned up medium rare

L. P.

Good decor and chilled out. Fun atmosphere and good vibes. Staff were friendly and offered drink suggestions. …

S. R.

Completely empty apart from us, still had great tunes, lovely waitress and left with very full bellies. Good drinks selection too...

J. H.

Good American inspired sports bar/American food restaurant. Decent prices, yummy food and friendly staff. They do decent food challenges on Wednesdays too

A. E.

Amazing food and the location between Blackfriars and London Bridge.. make it a great place for social place. The beer pong is my fav.. and the food is another plus. Can't fault it really..

S. F.

Interesting variety of well-made barbecue specialities and sides (hushpuppies!). Spacious premises mean room to spread out and it should possible to get a table without a booking at many hours.

p. l.

The burger for £5 is really quite good, and they have some nice beers but it really does feel like a pale imitation of other, better BBQ places.

A. G.

Had a great time. Great food. Very disruptive table near us but management dealt with it efficiently and professionally.

S.

Absolutely wonderful place. Staff are excellent and super fun. Great renovation, stunning food! Thank you Nico!

S. H.

Delicious food, relaxed atmosphere, broad choice of beers and ales. Close to the river and so an ideal spot before evening entertainment or simply moseying home.

D. W.

Take your carnivores here! Just off the busy Bankside path, you'll find massive meat dishes at good prices. Attentive and friendly staff seal the deal.

D. S.

Love Porky's!!! The ribs are great and the side is to die for. They even have beer pong! Love it. But bring loose trousers, portions are big!!!

G. K.

Really nice venue with good food and friendly staff. Only issue possibly could be the prices. Like any london restaurant it was rather expensive, but the quality of food made up for this failing.

O. J.

Great value American BBQ. Staff are always accommodating, there is beer pong on Thursday nights and the food and drink is exactly what it says on the tin.

C. S.

Friendly staff - a bit laid back w.r.t. service -- but only 4* - since they had no mac 'n' cheese left early afternoon.

I. F.

Very nice staff who gave attentive service. My expectation of somewhere of this name was that I would enjoy some tender and tasty ribs. A little disappointed as the ribs failed to meet my expectations.

T.

Service is usually fast here and the food is good (if you're into American BBQ). Also, Southbank Buzz card holders have a discount here.

L. M.

Fantastic Service & Great Food , Waiters/Bar Staff really friendly and welcoming and The Ribs are to die for really great place just round the corner is Shakespeare Globe

P. B.

Delicious ribs on the £9 lunch menu. Friendly service. Looking forward to my next visit.

V. S.

Great food, cool atmosphere and beer pong too, what else do you want for a fun time with your friends? Absolutely recommended!!

K. P.

Mountains of perfectly-cooked meat with good selection drinks to go with the food. Do beware of going during their busier times as The Lads can often be out in force, playing Beer Pong in the evenings.

R. M.

I first went here years ago and it was a terrible experience, things seem to have significantly improved, good was great, huge selection of beers (mostly not draft) and some beer pong tables!

M. W.

Food was pretty good. They sold tickets for a super bowl party and half of the tables weren’t close enough to a TV to even see the game

G. D. S.

Best bbq ribs i ever had, great host and awesome vibes.Very friendly staff, Will be back soon.

M. H.

Who doesn't love a game of beer pong. The staff are friendly and helpful. A good selection of food and drinks too.

J. A.

It was an excellent American style restaurant with a friendly staff and excellent prices especially for London. The food was well prepared.

M. A.

If you want a bit of Americana this is the place. Nice BBQ menu. Love the beer Pong tables for entertainment and music in the background very appropriate.

H. M.

Standard american eatery and drinks. Prices and portions were very decent, but the place lacked a bit of atmosphere and this was on a friday night.

J. M.

Burger was amazing. I had 1 and a half burgers with bacon and pulled pork 🙄 staff is very very good

B. J.

I had the ribs and they where just out if this world. And the drinks are also very exciting. Friendly staff and we felt very welcome.

J. O.

Good food! And nice staff.

s. b.

Lovely food and friendly staff, highly recommend the beer selection. Will be back soon for some beer pong games.

M. S.

Food wasn't properly cooked. Place itself is nice. Might visit again

C. D.

Good food, lovely staff & great that there are other drink options for Beer Pong other then beer!

M. M.

Nice friendly staff but a bit slipshod. Forgot a starter and a main so had to wait while they were prepared. Overall a pleasant experience

J. R.

Rib Sandwich and wings were nice. Wasn't a fan of the chilli but fair play they comp'd it without asking.

J. M.

Site of the single greatest beer pong moment in the history of beer pong. Plus they do good beer and snacks (mmmm nachos)

A. M.

Very good ribs... Better than bodeans... And many other rib specialists... The st Louis ribs are a must... And the Mac n cheese very good

D.

Excellent food, very tasty, lovely place and a good place to enjoy the american flavours. I recomend

J. P.

Very good food, excellent beer, and all served by friendly and fun staff.

d. s.

Great food, booked at short notice but service was excellent and not too expensive for London

Amazing food. Nice beers. Quite place to go and relax after work. Beer pong is the best.

J. G.

Best wings I’ve had in a long time, quality beer as well

E.

Had some good food here but I wasn’t really impressed to be honest. Good vibe going on and good feel.

M. H.

Great bar & fantastic burger. Staff friendly and welcoming. Will visit again

G. S.

Lovely venue just few min from the Globe, the food is very good and the staff is very friendly. Will be back soon.

C. L.

At a glance this place is like a posh bodeans. A little on the expensive side for a BBQ joint. Service was ok food also

I. B.

Popped in for pre-theatre drink. Okay but not really able to give a full assessment. Full of happy people so it can't be bad.

J. J.

Took away several orders of baby back ribs to please an American crowd. Did not disappoint! Tastes like home!

j.

It was nice a place to eat and chat if only they ask how you prefer the burger to be cooked.

j. N.

A really nice burger and American cooking place. My only complaint is a limited choice of drinks and its just too loud.

D. P.

Some of the best BBQ flavour I've tasted – super nice staff too.

G. C.

First at a Pork's really enjoyable food and atmosphere! Good service, would definitely visit again.

N. S.

Great food and a good half price offer. Will definitely go again. Thank you. 😊

Really fantastic service, the gentleman who served us on Saturday was really kind and had great service

Food is just ok, but abbility to play beer pong is nice, if you like that.

M.

Very good ribs, nice burgers, good american whiskey selections. Additional plus for beer pong option.

S. S.

Nice place, good atmosphere, service and food

J. D.

Great if you want to experience an American college bar feel. Several beer pong tables available.

S.

Always great food. Have to chase the servers down but they are lovely

S. S.

The beer pong tables are great but found the manager quite rude and it's overpriced for what it is.

J. B.

Amazing place. Nico and crew are fantastic! Plus, beer pong. So much fun.

R. G.

Ribs was ok, but pulled pork... Delicious. And sweet potato fries <3

D. B.

Love the southern food. A great place to have dinner before catching a show at the Globe

k.

Good food, friendly, barbecue was average if you're a foodie.

great restaurant. extreme tasty, tender meats. great staff. nice atmosphere.

M. M. S.

Good hamburgers in a very quiet restaurant for London (at least during lunchtime). Easy to get to. Spacious.

R. M.

Lots of pork! Ribs, pulled pork, burgers with bacon. Quite nice for a lunch or dinner. Quite loud and found conversation hard.

E. W.

Delicious food, great service, and they treated my little guy very well!!

J. B.

Good atmosphere and food was ok, it hit the meaty notes but just wasn't that exciting

v. g.

Great food and very good service, would definitely recommend!

M. W.

So so restaurant with a focus on beer pong rather than food. Reasonably priced, but not the most flavoursome of food

J. D.

Love this place. I come here before going over to the globe. Being from Texas it not a bad substitute and the music is always rocken!

S. B.

Great food with good drinks, don't miss the beer pong tables

G. A.

Best BBQ I ever had!! - Did I mention we're from Alabama! Home of Dreamland BBQ, Saw's, and Golden Rule BBQ!!

K. M.

Delicious meaty smoky food. Loved it! Great service too!

BEST CHICKEN WINGS IN THE WORLD, FRIENDLIEST STAFF.

A. D.

They were super friendly. The chicken wings and chicken sandwich were so good!

S. W. (. h.

Yup okay. Was expecting a little better on the food side. Good service and friendly staff.

D. C.

Good beer, good food, but a bit cramped to have four beer pong tables so close together.

O. B.

Porky's is decent, but don't ask me to compare it to Reds Barbeque, as Reds smokes the hell out of Porky's. Pun intended!

A. C.

Amazing place. The staff, chicken wings and the menu is great.

C. R.

Lots of room, the pulled pork is fantastic and I'm from the states! Staff was very friendly.

BBQ... Cocktails... American style with free beer pong.. it's a little expensive but it's ok.

T. P.

Fun little eatery. And just steps from Shakespeare's Globe so you can fill your belly before you feed your mind.

N. H.

Best steak I've ever had, i could have cut it with a spoon 😊😊😊

J. L.

Great staff and food. Tucked away from the main streets but still quite busy for a weekday afternoon.

M. G.

Decent food, low prices and nice classic dinner's decoration.

P. O.

Lovely food & great service, very well looked after

M. M.

Nothing special, but food was okay and the happy hour deal was money saving.

N. S.

It's alright. Expensive for what it is and not tasty enough to justify the pricing.

S. J.

Good location, food was served quick and relaxed staff

T. M.

Cool place for drinks and food. Can book to play beer pong there too.

K. W.

Plenty of Gluten Free option including beer.

Super fast food - they had the cricket on too!

E. P.

Food was really good, service was good...will go there again

D. A.

Whenever I try and eat more vegetarian food, this place pops into my head. It is the stuff of dreams. Edit: not what it once was sadly

H. W.

It used to be better, now the portions shrunk and lunch becomes very expensive- not worth it.

S. R.

Great place and iff you attend. You have to try the pickle juice and whisky shots

E. J.

I'm from Texas and thus BBQ was on par! Would totally recommend.

R. W.

Great southern food and night out made with beer pong!

L. M.

Great atmosphere lovely food friendly staff !!
