Local Pig & Pigwich
After six years in their
original East Bottoms location, Local Pig & Pigwich, a meat market and
sandwich shop will open in City Market on Wednesday, Jan. 16, at 20 E 5th
Street, Suites 101A and 101C.
After months of complex
renovation to the space, the new Local Pig & Pigwich is an adjoined space
with separate primary entrances on the 5th Street side and the Market side
respectively. Co-owners Alex Pope and Matt Kafka have coordinated the opening
for a fairly seamless transition from the old location with very little
interruption to business and are excited about the new larger, more
accommodating indoor space designed to serve more customers, and allow them to
expand their selection of locally produced retail items and fine-tune their
overall operation.
The new Pigwich will have
counter service and a larger menu featuring all their mainstays plus additional
sandwiches that were formerly offered as specials limited to certain days of
the week. Fries, a few desserts and kid-sized items will also be on the menu as
well as beer, wine and cocktails sold in cans.
As a purveyor of premium meats,
Local Pig offers cuts of high-quality smoked, cured and ready-to-eat meats from
whole animals raised on small local farms with no antibiotics, steroids or
confinement. They also have house-made prepared items such as pickles and
seasonings, charcuterie items and a "Butcher Box" subscription
program for regulars.
"This location aligns us
with produce vendors and specialty shops so we can provide our customers with
everything they need to eat clean and well," Pope says.
Local Pig & Pigwich will
operate 7 days a week 10:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.
