Prior to our wedding we had a gathering of many of our closest friends (many Pittsburghers) at Bubs. They did a wonderful job reserving a space for us and provided awesome service. Everything was incredible and our wedding weekend was off to as great a start as we could have imagined!
This place is great. Huge beer selection, food was filling and delicious. We were here for a big event, but servers were still super attentive and food came out quickly and hot.
Their wings are amazing! Definitely try one of their tots platter (I got the Philly and it was amazing!) Staff was great! Everyone was friendly and really fast!
Perfect Sunday, especially if you are a Steelers fan. Great atmosphere, friendly patrons, and friendly rivals (if you dare to come in with anything but Steelers gear). Great service!
Bub's is a cool spot in downtown PB. I've been there multiple times, but i went there recently and enjoyed the whole experience. My server, Brittney, was 10/10 & very nice. Great ambiance and service was great?
Food great as always. But what was even better was the consistent service from Andrea. She always has a small and never forgets to check in on her tables.Hard to find not only good service but consistent service these days.You must try their tater tots!
Delicious wings, no doubt. Also a fun atmosphere for afternoon hang outs. Fun games for groups inside. Great waiting staff, attentive and good customer service.
We stopped by for dinner and few drinks on Monday - gotta say I loved the fun atmosphere, humorous approach, excellent and friendly service and great food. We got the steakums, some wings and a tater tots skillet as that what’s was recommended, and so pleased we did. We got 2 of the 21 wings they offer , and I absolutely want to go back to try more flavors. Steakums was cooked a perfect medium rare!!
Wings are great, but they used to be twice the size for way less money. Love the wings but will probably never eat there again. 18.25 for ten small wings is ridiculous.
Great wings! Had the buffalo garlic and spicy bbq. Surprised I liked the spicy bbq even more. Expensive but all wings are right now due to supply chain issues

Yikes! This is more of a public warning. A server at this establishment insisted on holding onto my credit card because we wanted to order 3 sandwiches and 3 waters. Her excuse was that there has been a problem with dash and dine. I told her I was not comfortable with her holding onto my card for this reason. She refused service if we did not comply. I am a diabetic and needed to eat. I offered to pay for the food in advance. She refused. We have been enjoying Bub’s for years now and thought this must be a new policy. My son had to give her his card just so we could order food. Not alcohol. Just food. Between this sketchy new policy and the incredibly rude security guard at the entrance, I left a bad review. I then updated my review when the owner nor the manager would respond to my complaint. Only then did the manager Beth Wrightsman finally respond. She failed to talk about their supposed policy of holding a patrons credit card hostage in order to eat there. She clearly didn’t care one iota about that. What she did was flip the script on me and made it all about me and the words I used in my review. She was non apologetic for our horrible experience and infact was very arrogant and belligerent. After some research, I learned that this is NOT their policy. This server lied. And her manager Beth covered for her by gaslighting me. Perhaps to thwart any potential lawsuits or bad press. Nonetheless, I would also learn that other reviews included credit card fraud too. As well as profiling. Seems to be a consistent problem there. Beth Wrightsman has a history of failing to respond to accusations of credit card theft as anyone can see on Yelp. What she does respond to are complaints about straws. Very Bizzare. She’s worried about the turtles while her customers are worried about having their bank accounts emptied, and or being discriminated against. In the end she said I was banned while my husband and son were welcomed. Maturity is not her strong suit. Professionalism is sorely lacking. Straight up bonkers. On a side note, threatening to ban me is null. I would never set foot in an establishment where I am profiled, discriminated against and vulnerable to credit card theft from their employees. In conclusion, we paid in cash because there was no way I was giving this server my credit card. So glad we didn’t! I never got a receipt either. Shady shady shady. There are so many other great places to eat in Pacific Beach, but if you’re going to eat there, I advise you to look at the bill carefully, pay in cash and get a receipt.
I went in for a fun St paddy’s night and had the worst service. To start off with we were seated at a table that had not been cleaned, and it took about 20 minutes to get cleared. We ordered a simple vodka soda, and were served drinks that were not what we ordered. When we told them the mistake, they then brought us the correct drink. However when the bill came we were charged for the drinks we didn’t order and they were unwilling to refund us the amount for the drinks we never ordered, which came to about $40. Our server, Jay, was unwilling to help us and I will never go back. I will never recommend this place due to my experience tonight.
They grill their wings. Although we prefer ours fried, you may not. If you're looking for a different spin on chicken wings, try them out. Service was awesome! Never had an empty glass even though the beers were going down quick. Come try GIANT Connect 4.
Food was great and reasonably priced. Games for adults to play. We went early because of kids. Kids shouldn't really be there after 7PM. Great place for a Steelers fan.
Great place to hang out with friends.The nicest staff ever.Great food, I recommend the Montreal Steakums or the Cobb Salad if you decide to visit this bar.Huge supporter of the Steelers so you can imagine how crowded it gets when they have a game.They also have small events everyweek like the bachelor/bachelorette every Mondays and trivia games every Tuesdays.This is just an overall great place to hang with friends or to make friends at the bar too.
