Whole Hog Cafe - Conway

Stopped here on a motorcycle ramble. It was a good choice. They have 2 registers to take your order which makes it move along well. The dining area was very clean and plenty of room even for large parties. Food was ready quick. I had the 1/2 smoked chicken with okra and slaw. Everything was perfect!

I called and talked to Parker the catering director and he was super helpful and knowledgeable about everything they had to offer! The staff at the front when I went to pick up my food were super friendly! The only hiccup was that a pound of what I ordered had gotten overlooked so they kindly replaced it with no extra charges. I couldn't have made all the food I got for the reasonable price I paid! Everyone was super satisfied with the food! Thank you whole hog team of Conway!

I come here every time I’m in the area. It starts with the meat. Excellent prep then cooked to perfection. The sides remind you of a home cooked meal from mom. The sauces are always fun to play with. Choose a favorite or mix them up, and as well great flavor. The atmosphere is pleasant and the service is always top notch friendly. Can’t say or get enough.

This is the second year that we have had Whole Hog cater our Christmas luncheon for our employees. Last year they delivered for us, and this year we picked the food up. The employees love the food! We ordered the pork and the chicken with the slaw, potato salad and baked beans.
Service was excellent (thank you Parker) and so was the food. I appreciated that we could get the plates and silverware packs with the order so that I didn't have to make a run to the store for those things.
Keep up the good work, and yummy food!

Parker with Whole Hog Conway catered lunch for a conference at our corporate office. Service was exceptional (including a call when he was on his way) and food was outstanding! I will definitely use them again. Thank you!

I have continuously ordered large catering orders through this establishment for the past year. Parker, the gentleman over catering, is always very attentive and helpful. The order pricing is always the exact amount when I come to pick up which is a huge benefit when you’re dealing with state checks. The food is always hot and ready within MINUTES of the time I scheduled to pick up even if it’s right at opening time. I will continue to place orders here for work and to eat here in my personal time. I highly recommend.

I recently had the pleasure of arranging a catering service from Whole Hog BBQ for a business referral event at Waco Title, and I must say, their service was exceptional. The team, led by Parker, catered for 50 of our workers and associates, and their professionalism and punctuality were commendable.

From the moment Whole Hog arrived, they handled everything with remarkable efficiency. The setup was smooth, ensuring no disruption to our event's flow. The quality of the food deserves special mention – it was nothing short of fantastic, receiving rave reviews from all attendees. The flavors, presentation, and variety were spot-on, catering to everyone's tastes and dietary preferences.

Parker, in particular, was extraordinarily accommodating and professional. His attention to detail and commitment to service excellence greatly enhanced our experience. He represented Whole Hog BBQ with the utmost professionalism, reflecting the company's dedication to customer satisfaction.

In terms of areas for improvement, it's challenging to pinpoint specifics given the high quality of service we received. However, I would recommend they have a more streamlined way of making sure we knew all the items that were going to be provided and a receipt be given within a more prompt timeline.

Overall, our experience with Whole Hog BBQ was outstanding. Their commitment to quality service, coupled with delicious food, made our event a memorable one. I highly recommend them for any catering needs and look forward to working with them again.

I loved our visit to whole hog Cafe. I got the half rack of ribs with fries and fried okra. It was delicious. I really enjoyed their dry rub. I think my wife who got the same meal would have preferred the other. I would recommend their ribs.

Whole Hog was able to provide a fantastic catered meal for my father’s funeral service on short notice during the holidays. We were grateful for their kindness and quick turnaround during a stressful and difficult time. Parker reached out multiple times to make sure things were good. Delivery, set up and the meal were very tasty. The Mac and cheese, pulled pork and blackberry cobbler were especially delicious.

Every year we have Whole Hog cater our MSHA safety meeting. The food is always hot and delicious! We always have way too much food but the guys love that they get a to-go box to take home. Ribs fall off the bone!!!! The guys always ask if we are doing Whole Hog again and are excited when I say YES!

Love this place. Food portions are pretty inconsistent though. I usually order a jumbo pork sandwich and several times it has came with less pork than a regular size. Also, sometimes I get half a handful of fries and sometimes I get a full serving. That’s frustrating

We recently had a catering event with whole hog. Parker was my contact and he was absolutely fantastic. Made sure that everything went off perfectly delivered and said it up. He was super communicative and the process was easy to go online. Pick the menu and have them send me pricing. Absolutely great. Will definitely be catering through them. Again. Thank you Parker for everything you've done and thank you whole hog for the amazing food and wonderful service you gave us.

I give it five stars because I love the bbq, but that is not why I'm making a review. I ordered a pull chicken sandwich per usual anyway I found a little plastic wrapper in my chicken. Guess a little plastic won't hurt nobody right? Do me a favor cooks and servers check the food as if you were going to eat it.

We have lived in Northwest Arkansas for about 6 years now and have been meaning to try Whole Hog Cafe and just hadn't had the chance. We were on our way home from Florida this week and wanted to stop and eat lunch since we were almost home. We intentionally sought out a barbecue place and this one came up in Conway. We stopped to eat and we are SO glad we did.

The BBQ was amazing - the pulled pork, the ribs, the chicken, Jalapeño sausage and the burnt ends... YUM! It was all very tasty and the sides were pretty delicious too - the macaroni & cheese, the fried okra, the Coleslaw, everything was really good! And the sauces to choose from, so many choices!!! And all of them were so good, we ended up buying 2 bottles on our way out! They were only $6.99 each so we couldn't pass it up, we bought the Mustard sauce and the spicy sauce mmmmm!! The portions of food were very nice too - super reasonable for the prices paid really! We got a couple of the 2 meat combos so we could try a few different things and we had plenty of food and leftovers to take home!

The service was really great, everyone was very friendly and it doesn't seem like a chain! I'd assume the other locations are like this too, very welcoming and friendly and just there to give a good experience! We can't wait to go back now that we live close to one up in Rogers, we are excited to try it again!

Great food at a reasonable price along with a good selection. My family usually goes for the bbq baked potato or a family sandwich package. Also attended some events that was catered over the last couple months and it's really good as well. BBQ sauce selection is amazing, but #3 is where it's at! You should team with local employers to have food on-site a couple times a month. That would be awesome!

I wish I had found this place sooner. Absolutely amazing and you gotta try their atomic sauce by special request. Prices were fair also.

We stopped in for lunch and were very impressed both by the quality of the food and the friendly service.

The wide selection of numbered BBQ sauces was an unrecorded bonus and everyone in our group quickly found their personal favorite.

The BBQ was very tasty and we'd recommend it again easily.

This was a disappointing trip to Whole Hog. I ordered a pulled pork plate with mac n cheese and chips. They tell me they’re out of mac n cheese, no problem, I’ll take fries and chips. (Comes with two sides). Then ordered a cup of chili, they’re out of that too. Asked for BBQ sauce as well. I get home and open my food, no BBQ sauce, no chips. So here I am with my dry pork and stale fries. This was thoroughly disappointing. They must have different owners here, this doesn’t happen at the one in NLR.
UPDATE:
I got in contact with the owner and they made everything right. I was also told they are getting a different staff, so they will be replaced with more reliable people! Happy to have come back and try again. Thank you all!

We won an Easterseals Arkansas, Chef’s Table meal for 50 people donated by Whole Hog in Conway, Arkansas. Celerit had the catered meal yesterday. Parker Washington, the manager, was extremely caring, professional, very efficient and on time. The food was great, plentiful and very hot. He even made our day by also allowing us to add burnt ends to our order. We will do this again! Perfect in every way. Thank you, Parker, for giving us a great meal.

I cannot rate the atmosphere because Whole Hog was catering for my daughter's wedding at a third party location. I cannot thank Parker Washington and Whole Hog enough for their food, their service and their graciousness when I was under the gun. A couple weeks before the wedding we lost our original caterer and, with VERY short notice, Parker was able to squeeze us into this schedule and make the dinner happen even though they had (I believe) 11 other weddings on the same day! Parker delivered the food himself and stayed to serve without additional compensation. The food was excellent and the dinner guest were extremely complimentary. Overall, everything was fantastic!
