If you want obscenely indulgent, greasy, artery-clogging pleasure, this is where you want to be. The sandwiches are one good reason to come here, in particular the cheesesteak - which is NOT in any way authentic Philadelphia style, but in fact better - and "El Presidente" which is a Caribbean-ish pork sandwich. The "rib & fry" uses pork belly ribs so it is extra fatty and rich. Honestly, eating here feels a bit like self-abuse, but don't we all do that occasionally?Additionally, the fresh and smoked meats are top-quality. They even have beef bacon, which for a place named after pigs, shows serious dedication to animal products. If you need guanciale, this is the place to go. Also, they've got smoked duck breast which is fantastic.

This cute little butchers shop in west seattle serves one of the best fresh sandwiches. They open at 11am but i highly recommend calling them at 11 to place your order to pick up your fresh sandwiches else you will have a long wait time. We ordered their Swinery burger and their spectacular sandwich along with the danger fries. The sandwich and burgers were juicy and would melt in your mouth. I liked their danger fries but they did turn soggy cos of take out. Still had a lot of packed flavors and I enjoyed it all. Happy to have an amazing loval sandwich shop right here in West Seattle. Highly recommend.

If you, like me, hope to find the best swine on the coast- look no further! The west seattle swinery has only the most premium swine, conveniently located in west seattle (near seattle). I went here with my family recently and loved every bite of it. My son simply couldn't stop eating, so we ordered a few extra "dogs" to go! My daughter told me it was the best swine we've had all year, and I'm inclined to believe her! The swine was delicious, the staff was delightful, even my notoriously ornery husband enjoyed the ambiance. We came for swine, and we shall return for swine.My only advice: Be careful if you bring your son!

Excellent sandwich (Carolina) & the owners are great as well. Can’t speak to their butchers products but they have a great variety.

This was easily my top3 burgers in Seattle. The quality of pork meat is just top. The Spectacular contains both pulled pork and pork belly. The fat of the belly is surprisingly not that greasy.Also, the lady working there was very friendly and pleasant. She alone will earn a star.

If you like delicious things, probably a good place to visit. Nice people too.

Tried the Bahn Mi today. Great sandwich with shaved porkloin and a slab of pork belly!

I ordered the B&B Sandwich and I was amazed. You can certainly taste the quality of the ingredients. Will most definitely be coming back. ??

I had quite the experience. I got the blt that is made with pork belly. I mean it was divine. It had been a long time since I had eaten something that tasty. I can’t wait to go back and try some more stuff.

Honestly, the only sad thing about the Swinery is that it's in West Seattle and with the bridge out, it's hard to get to from anywhere in Seattle proper or north of Seattle. Otherwise, omgosh! I got the Supreme sandwich, and it was wonderful!! The crackling on the pork belly was perfect! The pulled pork on it was succulent and perfectly seasoned! The brioche bun was soft and yummy, the swiss cheese melted just right. We also got a side of pork belly... They salted it after cooking it, and I assume they salted it prior to cooking it... So it was a little too salty. I say, season the raw pork belly, but don't salt it afterwards. Guests should salt it themselves if they like salty food. However, all in all, it was absolutely wonderful!
