Pig Minds Brewing Co. how DARE you not have more than one location! Your vegan fair is absolutely spectacular! I’m very disappointed that I’m unable to savor your food on a regular basis due to my travels. Your restaurant is fun and family friendly although often times your staff was slightly negligent due to how busy your establishment is most days. This location has been my favorite vegan stop, by far! Everything I sampled was phenomenally satiating! Your entrees, sides and desserts are well worth any wait and your attention to detail is magnifique! Keep up the marvelous and note worthy efforts! There are not many establishments that can garnish such a huge omnivorous fan base on top of their solely plant-based clientele. Thank you!

I am not vegan, at all. I only say that because for a 100% vegan spot, they have something for everyone. I will double down and say that if you were served food from this place blindfolded, you would have no idea that you were served a vegan option. This place can get packed quick so get there early. The brews were awesome and this is a quaint stop on our drives to MN. I’d like to add that our daughter at the vegan nuggs and had no clue!

This has become our special favorite restaurant. I'd say it is the Midwestern answer to the Pokez in San Diego in terms of how unbelievable the all-vegan menu is. Even if you aren't vegan, the food is delicious. I agree with previous reviewers who say they wouldn't guess they were eating vegan if they were blindfolded.
The quirky decor and artwork next to the beer vats looks cool when you first walk in and there's a local "Cheers" type of feel so it isn't too pretentious or off-putting. The bartenders and waitstaff are all awesome and welcoming. And the food is truly superb. Worth a trip to see for yourself.

Whenever we pass through rockford, my kids will not let me go through without stopping by Pig Minds. They love the burgers and fries and those types of offerings. I'm a little bit more of a health nut, and I'm also gluten-free. I would give this place five stars no question, except that I wish there were more options for me especially on the dessert menu (there are no gluten free desserts.) I will say that I went a little bit of a different route this time, and I got all sides and a starter and I was very happy. I got a side of their beans, which are incredibly deep in flavor and actually special! Don't miss those. I also got the coleslaw, which was delicious, and I tried the blistered peppers for the first time and was blown away. They were so good and I ate the whole order by myself! One last detractor is that if you go on a weekend they are just so busy. I'm not sure how to resolve that, but the wait for a table would have been over an hour. It was windy and cold, so we decided to get takeout and eat it in our car! It took about 20 to 30 minutes to get our order, which was less of a wait time then we were told it would be. Everything was hot and no mistakes. We'll be back!

Pig Minds quickly became one of our favorite places to eat. My husband and I are not vegan, so at first we were sceptical, but the food is absolutely delicious. Huge fans of the Fun Guy pizza. Love the selection of beer as well. Place has an awesome vibe to it, have different special events, live music, etc

Went here for lunch, all of the items we tried were excellent. We ordered the nachos and jalepeno poppers for apps, then had the gyros, monster pretzel and buffalo chikin wrap. The only complaint was that the monster pretzel was over-cooked, but otherwise all was good.
Loved that they allow you to taste the beers before ordering. Also the prices are very reasonable. You can get a flight of the 10 beers on the menu for $15 (5oz glasses).

Let me preface by saying we eat a lot of plant based food, but are NOT a vegan family. That said, we've loved every item we've eaten at PMB. The pizzas are especially yummy, and I'm loving the weekend brunch menu. (The beer/cocktails are awesome, too.) Don't be afraid to try them out if you're a carnivore. 😉

We got to the brewery as they unlocked the doors Saturday afternoon. We were greeted and sat right down. The staff was very friendly. I tried a couple different beers and both were fantastic. The food was really good. I do eat a lot of vegan food and was expecting nothing less than great of this place. Whenever we are passing through we will return to this place. We had the pretzels as an appetizer, the mustard and "cheese" sauce were amazing. My wife had the BBQ porky sandwich it was delicious we have not had better vegan BBQ. And I had the Nashville Hot "chicken" sandwich. Which was really good as well! Can't wait to return!
