Editorial Review for The Hog Wallow Pub – by Citysearch Staff

In Short
This little out-of-the-way spot offers all the necessary elements to unwind properly: great live music, finger foods and a good selection of brews. The place gets packed with fun-lovin' people from all walks of life, so get there early to reserve a place on the weekends. The kitchen cooks up all the usual appetizers (hot wings, nachos, etc.) and a variety of pizzas. Draft beers include a bevy of local microbrews.

If you are looking to get away from the downtown bar scene for a taste of local SLC living Hog Wallow is a great place. If you don't want to fight the crowds, go in around 7pm and get your seat. Music starts around 9:30 on most nights. My friends love going there to see Soggy Bone, a local alt reggae band making their rounds on the SLC music scene. Look them up and check them out at Hog Wallow for an unforgettable night of music and drinks! The patio is another great reason to visit the Wallow. Order drinks in advance to avoid long waits. Check out Soggy Bone at soggybonedotcom or on myspace.

Pros: best patio, chill local bands, Soggy Bone jams monthly, pool

Cons: slow drink service

For my first time to this establishment, I did not like it and I also had a run in with the squirly little bouncer named Jeff. Make sure you ask before you attempt to leave and reenter and make sure you have a good excuse lined up (even thought it is none of their business). I've been told that a getting a cell phone or car keys are good excuses to give the bouncer for consideration for "re-entry". There is the rule of no "re-entry" between the bouncers, but there might be consideration. I think you need to flirt in order for this to happen and it's funny-the bouncer will not give you an excuse as to why there is no "re-entry". The patio is really nice, but the service is a nightmare. Is it possible to know what you want to eat if you've never be to this place and have not seen a menu? Well when you get a server who has a bad attitude from the beginning, brings 4 plates and 3 napkins for a party of eight you know you're being treating like a piece of gum stuck to someones shoe; inconvenient. The band was great and it seemed like the patrons generally have a good time, but the employees do not.

Pros: outdoor patio

Cons: Service and bouncers
