The first Pig Stand restaurant opened in Dallas in 1921. There was no dining room. Instead, the world's first curb service began. Folks drove up and were greeted by waiters who took their orders, brought them their food, and enabled them to eat in their vehicles. Shortly thereafter, the Pig Stand introduced the drive-through window, allowing customers to drive up, purchase food from the convenience of their cars, and go about their business. During the 1920s, Pig Stands opened in San Antonio, Houston, Beaumont, and other locations coast to coast. The chain reached its peak in the 1930s with about 130 Pig Stands, mostly in Texas and California—including Hollywood! In its initial years, the Pig Stand pioneered several food items: Texas toast, deep-fried onion rings, and the country-fried steak sandwich. The Pig Sandwich has been an item on the Pig Stand menu since the beginning. Not only was the Pig Stand the first restaurant to offer curbside and drive-through service, it was also among the first to use fluorescent lighting, neon signs, and air conditioning. The last Pig Stand located in San Antonio was sold to a developer and closed in 2023.
