| - Oink oink!! That's what I was thinking as I saw the pigs on the walls, on the coffee mugs, and elsewhere around the Oink Cafe. Not to mention the five different ways that bacon is prepared (applewood smoked, honey cured, sugar cured, peppered, jalapeno). I found my experience very pleasant as I parked, sat down with no waiting late on a Saturday morning, and was greeting almost right away. Don't get me wrong...there were still a lot of people in the restaurant, and it appeared that everyone was enjoying themselves. The service was outstanding as my waitress was very pleasant and helpful and continued to stop by to check on my father and me.
The food itself was very good. Both my father and I ordered traditional breakfasts (to keep it simple for our first time at the Oink Cafe). He ordered applewood smoked bacon, extra crispy while I ordered honey cured bacon. Both orders were delicious! The rest of the breakfast resembled any other breakfast restaurant though the dishes were still good. As an entire package (the food, service, wait, atmosphere), it was definitely worth the trip. Plus, there are some coupons online for 15% off your bill, $1 off any gourmet drink, or a free maple bacon donut (at http://www.8coupons.com/discounts/the-oink-cafe-phoenix-85032). Oh, and if you're not a fan of bacon, there are plenty of non-bacon breakfast and lunch dishes, too!
