The Feral Pig

A breakfast/brunch establishment with no pancakes on the menu. If that’s a staple in your breakfast selection, choose a different place. My son tried the French toast instead, based on the waitress’s recommendation, but he took two bites and didn’t want anymore. I ordered the shrimp and grits. The presentation was weird, first off, serving it in an aluminum to-go container sliding all over a plate. The grits were a very runny soup consistency and I did not like the flavor profile. I ate the shrimp out of it and left the rest. Best part of the experience was the Bloody Mary but even that wasn’t brought to me as I had ordered it. I ordered it with the extra garnishes but after “losing the ticket” they brought me a regular so I had to have the waitress fix it on my bill. Overall, just meh, as a first-time patron. With all the other breakfast/brunch options in Northwest Arkansas, I probably won’t go back.

I’ve had hospital food with more personality. This place has somehow achieved the culinary equivalent of beige wallpaper. Every single item tastes like it was designed for someone who thinks mayonnaise is “too bold.” If my very proper, very British grandmother from London (who once described garlic as “a bit much”) catered a wake, this would be the menu. The sandwiches arrive bone-dry. Not even the faintest smear of mustard to suggest someone cared. The ham and cheese contained approximately one translucent slice of each, gently placed between what appeared to be standard-issue bagged white bread. I’m not saying it came from Walmart… but I’ve met this bread before. The kids’ meal was especially bold in its minimalism. Calling it a “meal” feels generous. It was more of a suggestion. Now let’s talk about the hummus. I don’t know how they did it, but they perfectly captured the aroma of Play-Doh and turned it into a flavor profile. Gritty. Beige. Spiritually exhausting. I’ve had drywall dust with more seasoning. The “corn chips” were straight out of a bulk grocery bag. Not warmed. Not salted. Just poured onto a plate with the confidence of someone who knows they’ll never be questioned. And the staff? Oh, they were polite. Very polite. The kind of polite that feels like customer service training videos. You can almost hear the internal celebration when you stand up to leave. If you’re on a low-flavor diet, this is your paradise. Otherwise, save your money and make a sandwich at home. Forget the condiments if you really want the authentic experience.

Everything was delicious, fun and perfect. I am SO glad we can get a taste of Common Grounds again.. but even better. I’ve had the Bloody Mary and the shrimp and grits, and they were top notch!!! Service is always kind and friendly with a smile :) I will always go back!

Good food and super friendly staff. We both had a healthy brunch topped off with a berry crumble. Highly recommended.

Very cute place they've got. Matt was very kind when my husband and I walked in and the staff was so friendly. Food was good, the plants were fun, and the menu is pretty well catered to all sorts of dietary needs. They've taken the old Scoot Tribe and created a cozy place to enjoy drinks, food, and fellowship. Well done.
