The Pig Shop Bar and Grill

The Pig Shop Bar and Grill is a legendary barbecue destination in Virginia Beach, Virginia, that has been perfecting the art of smoke and flame for over three decades. Founded 36 years ago, this family-owned establishment originally built its reputation by catering exclusively to private events, where their bold and distinctive flavor earned a devoted following throughout Hampton Roads, North Carolina, and the Eastern Shore. The Pig Shop specializes in roasting entire pigs over Kingsford Charcoal, a signature technique that imparts an unmatched smoky depth to every cut. Their famous special sauce, crafted with apple cider vinegar, ties together dishes like the legendary Hogzilla sandwich, tender pulled pork, smoked chicken, and fall-off-the-bone baby back ribs. The menu features daily specials including the New Pig Mac on Mondays, pulled pork tacos on Tuesdays, generous BBQ sandwiches on Wednesdays, smoked pulled chicken on Thursdays, and the famous 2 Meat and 2 Side sampler on Saturdays. The casual, welcoming atmosphere attracts both locals and tourists seeking authentic Southern barbecue. With two convenient Virginia Beach locations including the Tournament Drive spot, professional catering services, and a reputation for friendly service, The Pig Shop delivers an unforgettable dining experience that stands toe-to-toe with the best Carolina barbecue joints.
