Profile

Like many trendy Manhattan theme dives, Hogs & Heifers leads a double life. Weekdays find this Meatpacking District institution serving shots and long-necks to actual meat-packers, and weeknights attract a genial, guy-heavy regular crowd of transplanted and would-be urban rednecks. On weekends, however, Hogs & Heifers is packed with a riot of whooping tourists and singles hoping to glimpse a drunken famous person's bra. The joint's desperate Saturday night pitch makes you grateful for the unobtrusive but swift bouncers who protect and serve without apology (or negotiations). — Bruce Bennett

Hogs and Heifers Bartenders are Rude!

The group of bikers who used to call heifers home obviously agree. There wasn't anyone who remotely wore any leather. Mostly designer shirts and high heels. The meat packing district has been in transition for a while now with new restaurants and the highline. Hogs and Heifers will not survive the recession if it doesn't shape up. It doesn't help that the bartenders keep up drink for drink with the patrons. Judging by the comments of my fellow bloggers there are a lot of people who have had a similar disappointing experience.

Doing a little research from other patrons’ experiences this place really swindles its customers. For example, if you leave $15 change on the bar to pay for additional drinks that you want later, the bartenders take it claiming it was a tip. If you complain they say "sorry it's mixed up with other tips". If you don't like it the bouncers throw you out. That’s stealing. The truth is Heifers is just another trendy bar whose best days are behind them. I would not recommend this bar to anyone. In fact, I will go out of my way to tell people how shallow of a place it really is.
