Reviews for When Pigs Fly BBQ Pit in Westfield, NY
Arrived here tired, thirsty and hungry after 7 hours on the road. Perfect opportunity for some comfort food. We entered and a... sign said the hostess would seat us. No hostess in sight but we asked a waitress said offhand "Sit anywhere, I'll bring you somemenus." After twenty minutes of no menus (even after catching the eye of several waitstaff) my girlfriend went to the bar andasked for menus and a server. Keep in mind this was not a busy night with double digit open tables and easily a half dozenservers about. Our server finally arrived and took our order, a meal for two that included smoked kielbasa, brisket, mac andcheese, corn, cornbread and sweet potato fries tossed in cinnamon sugar. I ordered a tall bud light (which the waiter assured methey had and I saw pints on other tables) and my girlfriend ordered a blue moon and a diet coke. I asked if we could get burntends for the brisket and was told they weren't available. Our drinks arrived fairly promptly, in 12 oz plastic cups though mygirlfriend's soda was in a tall glass. The food arrived a bit later. Having already drank my small beer I ordered another. Wehad to remind the waiter at this point that we needed silverware and table settings. That took five minutes and he also broughtsalt, pepper, bbq, ketchup and a roll of paper towel in a questionable looking plastic-lined bucket. By now nothing was veryhot. The cornbread was not warm enough to melt butter. The mac and cheese came in a ceramic bowl with melted cheese on top andwas fairly average, maybe some crackers mixed in. The sweet potato fries were cooked well but the cinnamon sugar was sparse atbest. The kielbasa tasted fairly off the shelf and the brisket was a very scant portion and more of a thick cut bacon, bland andslightly dry. I had no drink with my meal, luckily my girlfriend ordered the soda. The food was overall extremelyaverage. Later as we were finishing up the waiter showed up asking if we needed anything and said "Oh, I put Read more
Pulled pork was good, brisket was a bit tough and fatty, beans and frickles were absolutely amazing, cornbread was nothing to... write home about and mac n cheese was okay. Read more
Stopped here after a trip to North East Pennsylvania on our way back to Buffalo. Did a random map search and decided to give... this place a try. The smell from the smoker was enticing as soon as we got out of the truck. Amazing location on the beautifulshores of Lake Erie. Walked in on a Saturday around 430 and we were seated immediately. Everyone was out on the back deckenjoying the view and a beautiful summer afternoon. Biker-bar low-key vibe, but very comfortable for the two of us plus our8-month-old. We ordered a big plate to share and it came out quickly with very friendly service. Smoked turkey was amazing- alsohad some great brisket and pulled pork. Sauce had a great sweet but spicy flavor, smoke from the pit was SPOT ON. Sides werehuge and delicious- creamy Cole slaw, amazing sweet potato fries, cornbread, and baked beans. We had like 5 pounds of foodleftover to take home and enjoy for the rest of the weekend and a nice walk on the beach before we packed it home to Buffalo.Will definitely be stopping back next time we?re in the area.

Went for a Jeep Event with DSO and it was so much fun! Great venue and great indoor restaurant. Everyone was nice and the food... was delicious. Beautiful view. Read more
I am very disappointed with the service and how they found it funny that my wife was allergic to alot of their food. I am upset... that Lindsay and the cook proceeded to laugh and make fun of my wife. Your service is horrible your food is subpar. I can'tbelive you did not want to actually work and make food. If you are hungry in need of food this is not the location to do sokeep driving till you hit Buffalo. I made sure to dispose of their garbage food. Read more
Visiting there area for the first time on our 15th wedding anniversary. We chose to go here for our evening diner since my wife... has been craving some BBQ. The food we got was just ok/good. Nothing amazing. I took pictures below. I got the "My Boy Blue"burger which was tasty at times but was a little over cooked in comparison to what I usually like. The Texas toast bun was alsonot flattering with the combination of a tougher than usual burger. I was definitely not floored by the flavor. I will rate thatburger maybe a 6/10. The burgers comes with kettle chips and fries are added as extra. My wife got the pulled pork which hadjust ok flavor but could have been seasoned more. The food is a bit on the pricey side for what you get. I could tell therestaurant is currently under some distress. There really weren't many visitors even at peak dinner time, the firepit outsidedoes not look like it had been cleaned out for quite some time. There was a huge pile of old ash in the middle which made mewonder about the rest of the restaurants upkeep. The owners or management were really overworking one poor waitress who wasoverseeing the indoor and outdoor dining areas. Luckily we were only one of two couples in the entire indoor dining. I felt badfor her. This poor girl seems like she gets such a hard time from patrons due to the shortcomings of the restaurant andmanagement that she is more ready to apologize for any issues than potentially receive a compliment. I gave her an extra goodtip because she was working harder than anyone else and trying to do the best she could. She would be the reason I do not ratethe restaurant with fewer stars. Felt strange there were not more people at the restaurant which was another red flag for me.That place should be packed considering location right off lake Erie they are also right next to a boating/fishing peer wherepeople constantly go in and out of so you can tell somethingis just not quite right. Also looking at the other Read more
We stopped by to pick up food since it was near our bed and breakfast. The place is wonderful and has a great outdoor... atmosphere. Think it would have been better if we just stopped for a drink. So after waiting 30 minutes for our meal the ribshad good flavor but were cold and tough. They forgot half our sides so we had to go back. Read more
Fabulous service and good food with an unexpectedly lovely view of Lake Erie. My chicken BBQ sandwich was delicious. Husband was... disappointed with the texture of his brisket sandwich and said it was tasty but a bit tough/chewey. Read more
