The Polite Pig Restaurant

On April 10, 2017, The Polite Pig in Town Center at Disney Springs™ at Walt Disney World® Resort opens. The newest concept for award-winning Orlando Chefs James and Julie Petrakis. This husband-wife team, also own The Ravenous Pig and Swine & Sons in Winter Park and Cask & Larder at Orlando International Airport, and are opening this newest concept with James Petrakis’ brother Brian.

The Polite Pig features “modern barbecue” in an open kitchen, with Southern sides like a tomato and watermelon salad, mac and cheese or smoked corn with lime butter. They also include a sauce bar with seven different ways to top barbeque dishes, from Layla’s Sweet to Fresno Hot Sauce. In addition, the Polite Pig also serves a solid selection of craft beers and cocktails and features a bourbon bar with more than 50 selections, from small batch bourbons to a Pappy Van Winkle 23-Year Family Reserve.

The restaurant has 190 seats, and the décor pays homage to the beloved swine of The Polite Pig, as well as antiquity. Whimsical pigs on various adventures can be seen throughout the space and rustic touches are used as custom featured art pieces. Finally, large faded graphics also adorn the main wall of the space adding to the feel of the long-time family run business.
