I got food poisoning here... I was in town and hadn't eaten all day, me and my dad came in for sandwiches. We both ended up ordering cheeseburgers. I got mine with mushrooms and onions as well. Then we split an order of fries. The burger itself was greasy and didn't look like any of the other photos here on yelp. The buns were covered in greese. Not even 2 hours later I was uncontrollably vomiting. The worst part was this place seemed like a cute local deli and spot to get your morning coffee. I wanted to have a good experience, but I know what I ate was not right. It took me 5 days to recover and my trip was ruined as a result. I hope they fix this. I'd hate for anyone else to get sick! It was horrible! read more

The Boozy Pig - Greesy Smashburger - Meat Shops Near Me - Tampa, Florida

What a great little place!! Despite the name, they do not sell alcohol. BUT - you can bring your own!!! We didn't realize this, but luckily had some in the car for our golf outing after brunch. The menu isn't huge, but the flavors are! Four of us each ordered something and we all shared. The hot honey chicken sandwich was the best! We also had the gumbo special, which was flavorful with tender meat, but lacked any spice you'd expect from gumbo. Tallow papas & hillsborough hash were good too. Our server was super friendly! read more

Really good food. Service was quick as well. Nice little place. I would recommend for sure. Mike read more

A local butcher shop and kitchen, great place to pick up local processed smoked meat etc. from the shop side. The kitchen side I had the El Mixto their version of a Cuban, with house smoked meats. I am no purist, I am an old fat white guy from Pennsylvania. But this is one of the better Cuban sandwich renditions I have had in Tampa, it is a great mix of pig, smoke, and cheese, with some pickle and mustard to cut the richness of the Sandwich. Tucked away on a side street between Dale Marbury and the Bayshore in West Tampa, it nonetheless shows some of the good bones of Tampa. Is a place to stop on a bar crawl, no. But it has a good selection of house made sandwiches that reflect some of Tampa's character, and plenty of smoked pig; and a great lunch. read more

Had a great evening last night at the Boozy Pig in Tampa for a Wagyu & Bourbon tasting. This was the first event I've booked of theirs but I've enjoyed several meals here over the years and their fresh meats are always great quality. Tonight's Bourbon Tasting was put on by a local distributor for Bardstown Bourbon Company. This was my first time hearing of and sampling their spirits. We enjoyed an amazing welcome cocktail a Watermelon Smash made with cold smoked watermelon, lemon, lime, simple syrup, a splash of Topo Chico and Bardstown Straight Kentucky Bourbon. It was garnished with a piece of the cold smoked watermelon and I can say this is my new favorite way to enjoy watermelon. The smoke flavor truly elevated a summer treat. We enjoyed several pours of their different bourbons throughout the night, they sampled their Origin Series Bourbons including two Wheated and a Rye variant. We also enjoyed their Amrut release a wonder blend of 5 different bourbons aged between 8-14 years from Indiana and Kentucky. We were also treated to a couple higher proof single barrel releases that were a real delight. This was my first experience with Bardstown's Bourbons but if for sure won't be my last they were quite enjoyable. For dinner we started off with a great Charcuterie Board with house cured prosciutto, fennel salami and spreadable andouille, assorted cheeses and other tasty accompaniments. For the Wagyu sampling we had a Australian Wagyu with Japanese genetics and a local pasture raised Wagyu from RHN farms in Center Hill, FL both came out cooked perfectly and was accompanied by a ponzu & balsamic dipping sauce and a raw egg yolk. Each piece melted in our mouths and was such a perfect bite and the sauces just pushed it over the top. We also had an amazing Crab Mac & Cheese and Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus with a Hot Honey drizzle. To top off an amazing tasting and meal we were served dessert, Boozy Pig's housemade Bourbon Bread Pudding, with their homemade Icecream. This is one of the best desserts I've ever had it was amazing and I'm glad it's on their menu I'll be back for this again. This was an amazing event and we had a great time with some great people. This may have been my first event here but I will be back for many others in the future. They have a hog butchering demonstration coming up you need to check out. read more

We've come here a few times since our first time and the one thing I wish is that they have other milk options for their coffee for those who are lactose intolerant and allergic to almonds. Other than that, service is always good and portions are huge. It can get loud especially when you get there later in the morning. read more

The most unassuming restaurant and butcher shop on W Cypress! They have excellent fresh meats, frozen sausages and cuts, fresh eggs, and more. Seriously obsessed with this place and the food from the restaurant portion has the most homemade feel to it. They do incorporate pork into a lot of the dishes, including beef tallow (hence the name), so be prepared for pork. The seating area isn't the biggest, but tables seem to turnover pretty quickly. Everyone seemed to be enjoying the food and the interior was cozy. Definitely an intimate space. Food: We ordered a cup of the soup of the day which was corn chowder. It did take a bit long for the soup to come out, but it was worth the wait. The Rocketman sandwich was delicious! From the bread to the pastrami and the kick from the kimchi. Overall a delicious sandwich. The fries came out super hot!! And crisp. But I did find the garlic Parmesan flavor to be underwhelming. Be sure to check out the butcher shop and all the other local products they source:) read more

We love the Boozy Pig, it has been a great addition to our midtown neighborhood. This is a family owned business that we love to support. We enjoy the weekend brunch. The Hillsborough Hash and blueberry ricotta pancakes cakes are delicious! If you are grilling the blue cheese burgers and steaks are far superior to any grocery store meats. read more

Was doing Reddit searches for "best breakfast/brunch" in Tampa and this was the most suggested spot and I now know why. I got the el mixto $16, Mac n cheese $7, and bread pudding $8. - the el mixto (in my opinion) is similar to a Cuban sandwich and they definitely did their thing. The sandwich is on the pricey side but it was pretty good. Also that bread was next level: it was like a mix between Cuban bread & croissant bread. - The Mac n cheese was a bit underwhelming as I expected better. Also I kinda got it on accident as I thought it was part of the sandwich order until it was too late but it's fine. - The bread pudding was damn good and I can definitely say it's some of the best bread pudding I've had in general. Overall, this spot is definitely worth the visit and I'll definitely be back especially for that el mixto and that bread pudding. read more

I went on a Saturday. It was very nice inside. Servers were very accommodating and made good suggestions. I got the Cuban pressed sandwich with scrambled eggs, bacon and cheese. Very good breakfast sandwich. read more

This is a foodie brunch spot. We ordered the double smash cheeseburger and the Cuban breakfast sandwich with chorizo and a french fries. It is a BYOB spot, which means you can bring your own beer and bubbly. They also have a butcher shop inside if you want to get any hand cut meats and they sell and whole pigs. What a lovely hidden gem. We go back. read more

I can't believe it was my first time here and now I want to come back every week! The food is excellent and there are many other things on their menu I want to try. The fries are some of the best I've ever had. It was really busy there so service was a little slow. It's small inside so if you catch them at a busy time, then you might have to wait a bit. It's really cute inside and I like that they have bar seating as well. There's also a full service butcher shop. Check their hours because they're not open every day. read more

Great service, great food, but unfortunately just a tad overpriced. They were out of a lot of menu items, including bacon for my breakfast sandwich, which broke my heart a little and I was charged full price for a sandwich missing a key ingredient. However the french toast bun was delicious! If your budget for delicious food is infinite I recommend dining here! read more

The Boozy Pig - Knuckle Sangwich and Breakfast Burger with french toast bun! - Meat Shops Near Me - Tampa, Florida

We decided to try The Boozy Pig for lunch today. The minute we walked in we liked this place. The Boozy Pig is a restaurant/butcher shop. They sell their own meats you can purchase at their butcher shop connected to the restaurant. We were quickly seated and served. I tried their cappuccino and really enjoyed it, they serve local coffee from a coffee roaster in Ybor which I love! We both tried their 'Knuckle Snagwich' and thoroughly enjoyed them. It was packed with flavor and juicy. One sandwich is big enough to share with two. We added a side of their fries which were delicious. We'd love to come again to buy some of their meats and try their breakfast. Highly recommend. The store is simply decorated, their focus is good food which I love! They did have a nice outdoor seating area too! @living.with.reg read more

Finally checked out Boozy Pig as I came here for brunch. The staff and server were super friendly and gave that cafe vibes. They also have outdoor patio seating too. I ordered the breakfast burger and thought it was okay, maybe because I didn't realize the patty was sausage instead of beef ( should've read it carefully). The side of chorizo gravy was really good! The burger was really good and the pancakes. The Smoked cheddar biscuit was okay. It wasn't a real biscuit as it was more like cornbread. I was expecting the typical biscuit but overall not bad. What I ordered: - BREAKFAST BURGER: 5oz breakfast sausage patty on a toasted brioche bun with a slice of bacon and a fried egg with smoked cheddar. Served with a side of chorizo gravy - BOOZY BURGER:4oz grass-fed beef patties with blue cheese and caramelized onions on a toasted brioche bun with housemade bourbon bacon jam and arugula - LEMON RICOTTA PANCAKES: 2 fluffy buttermilk pancakes topped with homemade blueberry jam and lemon ricotta. served with maple syrup - SMOKED CHEDDAR BISCUIT: Freshly baked in house-made warm biscuit w/ homemade blueberry jam read more

Very cute butcher that also has a small resturant. The server was excellent. She recommended some of her favorite dishes and they were ones we were looking at so we went with them. This is a BYOB so def bring champagne and orange juice to have with your brunch. Breakfast Burger The breakfast burger was good but the winner of the dish was the side of sausage gravy. It's made with chorizo and had a very little spice to it. It's heavy but great! The hash was also a solid choice. There was enough to split and grab a bunch of sides which we might do next time as I'm dying to try the brussel sprouts. read more

Had a girls monthly meet up here and everyone was happy and we couldn't have asked for a better evening. BYOB, great food , great service and we all had space without ever feeling rushed. I knew what I wanted to try weeks in advance. Even casing out their meat case during my weekly visits to the butcher shop. Their pork belly ribs have been on my mind for soooooo long and I'm happy I finally had the chance to try them. It was served with a fresh arugula salad, sprinkle of pistachio and the pork belly rib was cooked to perfection. Ordered their bread for the table and the corn bread was some of the best I've had. We also had the best service, something most places just tend to forget about these days. We laughed for hours, sipped our wines (which they kept on ice for us) and enjoyed a memorable dinner. Be sure to save room because their warm bread pudding and ice cream or creamy flan is going to really make the toes curl... always a wonderful experience when coming here. Wether it be the farm to table meats, salads and homemade pastas. I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu We routinely visit since the kids love their breakfast cubano. Boozy make the best bacon ever! If you catch their grass fed hot dogs in the case. Better stock up. They go fast! Psa- Dinner has since stopped and they have revised shorter hours during the summer. read more

this place is INCREDIBLEEE!!! The service was amazing. The mixto (Cuban sandwich) was so so good, but the breakfast sandwich and the cinnamon and vanilla zabaione brule (on the weekly specials) was out of this world. My first time here, but I will be back! read more

Wow! So glad we stopped here on a whim on our way to the airport (from out of town)! We had the Breakfast Sandwich and the Back to Bed. The Back to Bed is biscuits and gravy with greens and an egg on top and wowwww....the greens are I think better than my Cajun mom's. Flavor top notch. The breakfast sandwich was not your plain sandwich...the egg was a flat PERFECT sandwich egg, the bacon was incredible, the sausage was soooo good and flavorful (not greasy at all), perfect paired gouda, and I opted for the boozy sauce on the side but lathered it all over the soft bun after trying...soooo delicious! Tangy and way better than any burger sauce I've had. I wish I had taken a picture....just do it, just stop here. 10/10 we will be back! read more

The food is tremendous. All cooked fresh when ordered and they have a butcher shop ( I did not try YET ! ). Give yourself sometime to enjoy this as it is cooked to order ( NOT FAST FOOD ) and don't forget to BYOB ! read more

Great little family run restaurant with farm to table type menu. They also have a butcher case with fresh beef.

This unassuming butcher shop has an amazing brunch. The service is quick, attentive, and accommodating. Def recommend the Hillsborough hash, the biscuits and gravy, the shrimp and grits, and the lemon blueberry pancakes. Their coffee is also really good. A Tampa gem and must try! read more

Food, service and price were great and Jessica was a breath of fresh air. I ordered a burger and must say it was the best I've had in a long, long time, best in Tampa for sure. The bun was just perfect for this big burger, toasted just the right way, and burger cooked to perfection. The fries are another story all together, AMAZING. I am a sucker for good fries but these tastes like fries my grandma use to make (homemade). Cute place but looks like they're struggling with empty cases. It would be a shame to see this place NOT make it. If you haven't been, you gotta go. It is worth it. read more

Went there for lunch and it was super disappointing. We ordered a steak and frites (6oz sirloin) and a hamburger. The portion was really small and not filling. The burger did not come w any side/ fries. Sirloin steak was dry and tough and had some kind of weird smell. The frite was pretty salty. They took away my husband's utensils and napkin bc "you got a burger and probably don't need utensils" (poker face). We ordered both in medium but received "well done" meat. Pretty pricey for low quality and mediocre food. read more

Fantastic, need I say more? Best hamburgers in Tampa. Wish I was there now. Honestly, the best.

Butchery and cafe in one! Very cool concept and I can't believe that this is the first I'm trying this place. Indoor and outdoor seating. Limited parking and seating for indoor. You can choose your own seating and the staff will bring over the menu. Greeted when we entered and thanked when we exited. They even went around to the tables asking how the food was, which is nice and means they truly care about your experience. I ordered the pick 2 and chose the El Mixto sandwich with the side of Mac and cheese because let's face it, you have to try the Mac and cheese whenever you come to a place like this! And hubs got the Gluseppe which is a sausage on a hoagie with pepper and onions. He also ordered the soup of the day which I cannot remember the name but it was bean soup with sausage and collards. The flavor on everything was great! I loved my sandwich!! It was so much food that we took the soup and Mac home which tasted good even being warmed up. read more

Great experience and the food was wonderful. The fresh meats were excellent and the eggs as well. We will be back for sure.

Went for brunch and the sandwiches were pretty good flavor overall. Ordered the Mick and Morty which was tasty. The Mac and cheese side was also really good. Make sure to go on the earlier side as they start to run out of some items and parking can be limited. Also ordered the cornbread shareable but it was a bit dry. The butcher shop is cool to see and had a nice range of pork and beef meats. read more

Ambience 5/5 Food 5/5 Service 5/5 El mixto!! Boozy's version of a Cuban and it is phenomenal, easily one of the best sandwiches period and left me savoring each bite slowly. Everything from the ham, salami, pork , garlic dill pic for a top top tier Cuban . This Cuban is as good as any I've had . The knucklesangwich wasn't as good as the el mixto imo but it's essentially braised beef with a layer of bacon it looked a lot better on the menu but it could definitely use some caramelized onions or some form of sauce or cheese. Just felt it needed like a softer texture with a bit more moisture to be a complete sandwich. I loved the ambience though it just feels modern and clean inside. Limited seating though so if bringing a big party , might be a challenge unless you reserve space beforehand. The bread pudding is to die for , crispy outer layer which is the browned edges you see in the photo with a soft custardy mid layer. There's a butter sauce that is similar to toffee but not as sweet . There's nice vanilla notes as well as a subtle bitter aftertaste that lingers . It's ibe edible bread pudding to say the least. I'm a fan looking forward too my next visit ! The service was awesome the lady at the desk and the chef came out to check on the customers. read more

After five years of great meat, great food and great service yes, they are still here! My husband and I stopped in yesterday afternoon for an early dinner around 5 PM. The shop closes around six on a Thursday, which worked out very well for us. We ordered lunch I had a BLT, which is the classic with the best bacon on white toast that I've had in so long. My husband had the Gouda Mac cheese, of course as well as a pressed brisket cuban sandwich. Well, lunch is being prepared step next-door to the butcher shop. You can never be disappointed here. But the pot roast several sausage links, fresh Italian sausage with tomato and cheese, also a few interesting looking steaks Yes, your basic ribeye but something also that struck our eye was a more flavorful version of it. You'll have to ask the butcher. Homemade sauces, pork gravy, and another selection of sodas drinks in the cooler. Plenty of parking in the front at their location on Cypress Street. This is a must stop by place because it's a fresh butcher shop. We were also offered a share in a freezer order, which is incredibly reasonably priced and generous on the meat side. On the weekends, fluffy ricotta pancakes, yes get several orders for the table. Don't be stingy! read more

Absolutely fantastic food. The burger was out of this world. I wish there was more of a restaurant (there are a few tables in a butcher shop essentially) because these people know what they are doing. If you are a burger fan, don't miss this one! Excellent service, oh, and BYOB! read more

How did I not get here sooner?!!! Don't walk ... run here!!! Part butcher and part café, the Boozy Pig is what we need more of in Tampa. Food stands on its top quality and flavor rich profiles. We opted for Pick 2 - half sandwich with a side and drink for $15. Both the El Mixto (their cuban) and Sicilian of the South (pork with collard greens) were delicious. Thought the pork had an added luscious zing flavor that made me want more. But the Tallow Fries are to die for ... the potato wedges deep fried in beef fat ... I could just eat that for my meal!!! So sorry for the picture of the lone fry left in the bowl but my stomach got the best of my yelping attention. The salad was refreshing and the vinaigrette was on point. The drinks are available in the refrigerated case. Mexican coke and sprite plus a handful of others including Black Cherry soda! Too bad we didn't leave space for dessert. We definitely need to come back. Backing up. We arrived to find the front parking area breaking down from the Burger competition with Ella's, Three Sisters and .... So Parking was limited but street parking available. There are tables inside and bar. Note to self: BYOB for next time. Service was attentive and relaxed. Love it when the place focuses on just serving great food without all the pretentiousness. Portions were satisfying and menu diverse. We could even purchase whatever we wanted from the meat case and pay the prep fee...now, that's tempting! Need I say anymore?! read more

The food here is amazing. The burger is one of the best I've ever had. Small, unassuming place but trust me you'll be glad you went.

Out driving around Tampa and hungry, we found The Boozy Pig. A butcher shop, house cured charcuterie, that also houses a small restaurant that features BYOB. We ordered collards and white bean soup, Rocket man sandwich. The soup was flavorful and hearty. Collards with ham hocks, sausage and white beans. Rocket man is their take on a Rueben sandwich. House made pastrami, charred kimchi, melted Swiss cheese, rocket sauce, a tangy version of thousand island, served on toasted rye bread. Pastrami is spot on, kimchi and sauce definitely kick it up a notch. Since they feature BYOB we were able to bring in a couple of ice cold Cigar City Maduro beers to pair with our lunch. read more
