Bourgeois Pig: User Reviews

wrong sandwich? who cares!

I was expecting something different based on all the reviews but this place is really very nice. Huge menu selection and quality items. The atmosphere (upstairs especially) is perfect for reading/studying. The artwork on the walls could use some help. I ordered a white hot chocolate which was absolutely wonderful, however, i didn't receive the sandwich I ordered. The one I ordered had hummus (East of Eden - great names for menu items) and the one i received was just more of a veggie sandwich. I really can't complain too much because it was still really good. If I lived closer I'd be here much more often.

I can't say enough good things about this place! The food is always wonderful (without exception) whether you eat in or have it delivered. The ingredients are fresh and nourishing! Excellent service by really nice genuine folks! Try the Quiche of the Day - doesn't matter what it is because it's always superb!!!

I went here for the first time last weekend and loved it. I agree that the coffee was a little rough (lots of grounds in mine), but the sandwich I had (the Secret Garden) was fantastic and huge. I also had the biggest rice krispie treat I've ever seen - yum! The atmosphere was calm but very crowded. I'm looking forward to go back when the weather is nice to try the outdoor patio.

This place is very cute and would be a nice alternative to Starbucks, but the coffee sucks and so does the attitude. I recently ordered a decaf at BPC and it was awful. It must have been sitting around for hours (I guess they don't serve much decaf). I told my server about the bad coffee and asked if she could replace it with a good fresh cup - she told me she would have to charge me again. Now I understand why Starbucks is so successful - I have never had a bad cup of coffee there.

Overall rating:

This is the quintessential coffee house of my imagination. Shelves of books, antique trinkets, mismatched wooden tables and chairs - I love it. Unfortunately, their coffee is bad. A fact which only reinforces how much I love this place. I'll go with espresso or simply deal with weak/ill-tasting coffee so as to enjoy this chill and romantic cafe.
