Right next to the old Egyptian Theater on Hollywood Blvd., this classic diner has been restored to its former glory. Huell is joined by the new owner, members from the LA Conservancy, Hollywood Heritage, as well as a few old timers - who remember it from way back when. Hollywood really is making a comeback.

My grandfather's first job when he came here to America in the 1920's was @ "The Pig & Whistle." I am so happy that it's still going strong!!! ❤️⏳🐷🌈

@@huey555k I think it’s now closed and again was sold. They took off the name too. Sucks. Places like this shouldn’t be torn down, it’s history.

Urban Archeology. I like that. So true. I love the Micelis gentlemen, so interesting and fun. Thank goodness he saved everything or would have gone to the dump!!

It was recently gutted by moron Jose Cueva and turned into a crappy new restaurant.

@orcinus6802 2 года назад

The name Pig ‘n Whistle was a clever homonym play on the Old English words “piggin,” which is a wooden bucket, and “wassail,” which is mulled cider, so phonetically the name means “Bucket of Mulled Cider” in Old English.

They had a “Pig N’ Whistle In Sebastian, Florida. I lived there from 2004-2008

@racheldelgado5646 5 лет назад

Fabulous finds. Hope to visit this restaurant on my next visit.

Used to go there when i visited a buddy who lived off Las Palmas around 2005..Very good looking staff.. Waitress told me most of the staff were looking to get into movies or tv..Big shock

Probably named by a Brit . Pig and Whistle is a UK pub name from 1800s, like Dog and Duck , Cat & Custard Pot , Bull and Spectacles etc

RIP. On the other hand, the Italian restaurant Miceli’s (that seemed a LOT more interesting and authentic anyway) is still going as of January 2024.

7:23 whatever happened to this man? We need someone today that's willing to preserve the memory of the Pig 'n Whistle!

The 1933 Group helped bring The Formosa back to its original glory after it was ruined by some 30-year old developers. Maybe one day ...

The table Cloths were the same in Sebastian, Fl OMG!

@megalon916 2 года назад

New owners started demolishing /renovating without a permit - and despite a stop work order from the city. Bye bye Pig n' Whistle and hello Cantina Tempo.

@Tony.Technics.1200s 8 месяцев назад

Wow, that sucks.....hope the pizza place at least is still there.

@BODEGA1940 Год назад

Unforturnately it is completely gone now.

The Pig N’ Whistle Located In Sebastian, Fl. Was nothing to brag about though. I ate there several times. What was it than? So out of my realm...Corruption NO DOUBT!
