If you love a classic steakhouse — the kind that has been open for 35 years, sticks to what it does best, has branding you know and trust, and is part of the fabric of the neighborhood – then Hog’s Breath Café Ipswich is for you. And even if a steakhouse isn’t your usual ‘go to’ kind of place, you might just find this well-loved, locally owned and operated restaurant is also right up your alley.
With a menu that’s continually evolving to keep up to date with current dining trends (think fresh new flavours; new salad ideas; share plates; craft beers and out of this world cocktails) and that also offers great tasting food for those of us with dietary restrictions or preferences, Hog’s Breath Ipswich still celebrates what makes it best – great steaks! And at Hog’s, the jewel in the crown of their extensive list of steak options is their 18-hour slow cooked Prime Rib.
This steak is unique to Hog’s Breath. Simply put, it’s the best a steak can get, cooked long and slow before being seared on a flame grill to meet your personal specifications (although the restaurant manager says that medium-rare is always the way to go!). This is the steak, customers fawn over. It is tender and flavoursome, and together with Hog’s world famous ‘curly fries’ – served hot, and crispy, has turned Hog’s Breath Café Ipswich from a classic restaurant, into a local monument!
And just like their food, the welcome you get at Hog’s Breath Café Ipswich is guaranteed to be warm and genuine.
The servers are attentive and friendly; the food and drinks are good and plentiful; and while Hog’s Breath has always been the place to turn birthdays, anniversaries, promotions and graduations etc. into real celebrations, it’s also a place that fills your belly.
