Bourgeois Pig is an independent, family owned cafe in the heart of Lincoln Park, operated continuously by the same owner, Mason Green, since May of 1993! Situated within 2 adjoining, red brick, row houses built in the 1890's, The Pig is a very period and special place indeed: antiques, wood floors, tin ceilings, oriental rugs, crystal chandeliers, slate chalkboard menus & the kind of ambiance & service you just can't get from a chain store. Our menu is literary themed, with most of our sandwiches & salads named after novels & plays. Our food is fresh, generous, homemade & unique. Having started as a coffeehouse, we also serve a vast array of loose leaf teas steeped to order, as well as a myriad of traditional coffee & espresso based drinks!
