Had a great time at the Aug 11th Blues, brews and BBQ day. Double G Blues Band provided the blues, they were very good! Got a few Chido, Mexican Lagers from King's Road. Awesome on a hot summer day. Whole Hog served up some delicious wings and ribs to fills us up. And can't forget a couple of cones from PeeWee's to cap the day off! Hoping they do this event again next year! Had a great lunch at Whole Hog! Had a 4 rib platter with Mac & Cheese and cornbread. A pulled pork sandwich and a 10 piece dry rub wing order. Everything was delicious, very reasonably priced. What makes it even better is you can take out the food to the brewery next door! Staff was very friendly, food came out fast and hot! Will certainly be back!

Great food, and service. I will definitely go again. Didn't know what I wanted. The guy taking my order was patient. I purchased multiple sauces and got 2 for free. Honestly I did add sauce to my chicken and brisket, then put it in the oven. (Not pictured) It was better. The ribs were fine the way they were. Delicious! Mac & Cheese was generic. I spruced that up with cheese, seasoning, and a little milk. Beans great as is. Great corn bread.

Food was delicious! I had pulled chicken with mac and cheese, potato salad and corn bread. The atmosphere is so nice, you can dine inside or outside. The restaurant is open to the outside dining area. They have 6 bbq sauces at the table to try. I love the type of blues/country music playing. I will be back!

Very good bbq! I got the pulled chicken sandwich, cheesy corn, mac and cheese and a fountain drink. As a table we shared the fries that had cheese and ranch dressing. The food was delicious. They give you a lot of meat on your sandwich and then on the tables you have the different sauces to add. I will say it is not cheap to get a meal here, but I was satisfied with the quality of the food. Friend got the meat platter. The cornbread was a bit dry. Otherwise, everything was great overall and would definitely return!

The meat was tender, smoky, and comes off the bone just right. They offer several house-made sauces, so you can find your favorite flavor without much effort. The sides are solid—especially the beans and coleslaw. Casual, no-frills vibe, great for a laid-back meal. It’s not fancy, but it hits the spot.

Stopped by on a trip from PA back to Jersey and WOW was the food extra yummy and fast service. Went to the rest room and it was not what I expected. At all...it was immaculate and welcoming. Not something I’d seen in a bathroom at any food place but this place definitely takes the cake

This place is fantastic. The girls up front were very kind. We ordered the wings(Root Beer and Buffalo Hot) and the Hog Platter(Burnt Ends, Sliced Brisket, & Ribs w/ Mac and Cheese & Collard Greens). All of the food was fantastic. There was a small hiccup with wings being tossed in the wrong sauce, but they went above and beyond to make things right. I will definitely come back here the next time I come out to the area to visit family. A. Highly Recommend.

I love the burnt ends, but last night's were one-third inedible fat. I haven't been to Whole Hog in a while but was sorry to see that corn bread is now a 1.00 up-sale, that doesn't seem right for a place that's all about the barbeque experience. I will still recommend you to anyone who asks about where to get great barbeque.
