I ordered the Figgy Piggy with a tomato bisque for lunch.
I’d agree with other reviewers that the pulled pork felt like a filler not the star of the show. I couldn’t taste any seasoning— even a hint of salt and pepper would have helped. As the namesake of this place, I’d expected the pork to stand on its own, but it fell flat. I liked the brie and fig jam combination, but there wasn’t enough of either to make up for the flavorless pork. Honestly, I had to dig around my sandwich to confirm the brie was even in there.

The lemonade was quite nice as well! Service was sort of short, but they were busy, kind and kept the lines moving.
I recommend that if pulled pork is your thing, you don't skip the Pork Shack while...
