The Crafty Pig

* Handpicked for you – curated deals for 5pm customers*

Sitting pretty in the West End, The Crafty Pig describes itself as what happens ‘when an upmarket neighbourhood bar meets the dive bar’s “bit on the side” ‘.

Saucy.

Get down and dirty at The Crafty Pig with today’s Big Deal on a rack of ribs to share and a wine or beer each for two people.

Billed as a brewhouse and smoke pit, The Crafty Pig is a neighbourhood bar on the Great Western Road.

It’s a laidback joint with stripped brick walls, a pool table, live music and live sports.

Lots of live sports. Especially rugby.

Slow cooked barbeque

The kitchen specialises in slow barbeque with the finger-lickin’ food cooked to perfection in the in-house smoker.

Available noon to 8.30pm, Monday to Thursday, the Big Deal is for two people to have a full rack of ribs, fries, an extra side to share plus a small glass of wine or bottle of house beer each.

Sides include mac ‘n’ cheese, BBQ beans, ‘slaw and onion rings.

Reared on the hills of Black Ridge, The Crafty Pig’s full rack of ribs are slow cooked for hours in the kitchen’s own blend of herbs and spices.

We understand that they are impossible to eat without licking your lips.

Happy diners

The Crafty Pig knows how to tickle its customers. These reviews are from their Facebook page:

‘Great choice of beers, good food, dog-friendly & great atmosphere- a good find in the West End.’

‘Excellent bar, great venue for Warriors games, fantastic staff.’

‘Really cool pub. Had a great wee night that was ended with a game of pool which we loved! Been for food before and loved all the burgers we had.’

Lip-smackin’ BBQ

This finger-licking Big Deal would be perfect for catching a midweek game; a night out with friends; a catch-up lunch with a friend or simply because you can’t face going shopping and cooking yourself.

The Crafty Pig is a short stroll from the Botanic Gardens. Which means this offer would be the ideal restorative pick-me up after a stroll around the gardens.
