Well, Hello!

We’re Five Little Pigs. If you’ve found yourself here you’ll likely know we’re a charming little neighbourhood bar & restaurant, and that we delight in serving people thoughtful, seasonal & locally-sourced food and drink.

What you might not know, is how we came about:

Two of the three founding piggies own and run The Keep, Wallingford’s much loved gin & craft-beer bar, which opened its doors way back in 2016. A pandemic has since seen Rob & Sam transform it (albeit temporarily) into the most exciting off-licence you could hope to find yourself in, still specialising in the best of local, original, and spectacular beer, wine and spirits. 

As fate would have it, new Wallingford resident and local restaurateur Aimee had found her way in there before it closed its doors to enthusiastic gin drinkers. A friendship blossomed, and a dream was born… and after a (frankly, astoundingly) successful crowdfunding campaign, a sizeable renovation project, and a few inevitable hurdles, Five Little Pigs is opening on May 21st and we can’t wait to ply you with food and drink.

Why call it Five Little Pigs you ask? The name is partly taken from a Victorian nursery rhyme and an Agatha Christie novel. Agatha Christie was a long-time resident of Wallingford living at nearby Winterbrook House and we are very proud of our town’s history and heritage. We also just liked the way it sounded!

 Oink, Oink!
