50 Best Bars near Carnegie

“Good Food, Awesome Staff, the amount of pictures of the owner was a touch I found odd, and something called "CumbBurger" had me laughing.Extra star given to offset Karen's one star because she brought in a party of 8 when they were already busy.This place is small, I would never try to bring more than 6 people at once, even then you would need 2 tables.Cumb, you seem like a fun guy, maybe even fun enough to bring in more business by just being there to talk to, but it kind of felt like a museum dedicated to your accomplishments.Keep living life to the max, I'd definitely come back.“

“Found this place, coming from out of town. The food was absolutely fantastic. And the atmosphere was really cool. Right out of a movie set. Just don't see much like this up in Canada. Thanks for feeding and hosting us!“

“Fun little neighborhood bar!“

“A group of 8 went to celebrate Galentine's. The service was amazing. They checked on us frequently to make everything was good. They played birthday song for someone else and notice we sang and were wishing happy birthday to someone at our table. Boom they brought the hat, a dessert and played the music again for us. We had a memorable evening. Esther was our wait staff I believe. Thank you for taking care of us. Thank you for making our Valentine's fabulous!“

“We’ve been going to Elly’s since we moved here a few years back and it’s a true testament to we need more women owned businesses. The food is killer. The staff is fantastic. The atmosphere has something for everyone. Their food is moderately priced for good portions, and they have amazing specials - $5 happy hour menu and $10 rotating entree special. They just added some new food to the menu with turkey handhelds, weekend breakfast, and Lenten specials on Fridays. I’m ready to come back and try it all. Support local - eat Elly’s.“

“Tonight we ate at the Urban Tap. Our server Jenna was not only delightful. She was on top of every order both drinks and food. Clearing the table quickly. Filling drinks. And very personable to speak with. I would not only recommend this place to anyone. I would recommend her specifically as your server if possible.“

“These folks are doing some fantastic work with their cocktails. Great flavors, great creativity. Staff is also fantastic. Enjoyed my brief conversations with them around current menu and my particular off-menu order.
5/5 would cuss respectfully at the bartender again.“

“Good food. Excellent hamburger“

“Such a fun venue with lots of exciting shows! I've been for the recession pop party in May and we're headed to the Taylor Swift party tonight. The hot dogs are delicious (they have lots of specialty dogs with various toppings!) and the drinks are absolutely phenomenal. The people who work there are great, I accidentally deleted the email with my tickets and Mariah emailed me very shortly afterwards and got me taken care of! It is clear that Bottlerocket takes pride in their shows and their contributions to Pittsburgh culture! We can't wait for even more fun events in the future!!! 🩵🩵“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Super fun and welcoming atmosphere!! Everyone is lovely, the cocktails are creative and delicious, the food is great, AND the patio out back is awesome!“

“Excellent fish, great top-shelf drinks and volunteers that can’t be beat. We try to make them all!“

“They had a really tasty chicken and jalapeno dumpling soup as a special. I think its nice when places do weekly specials and mix it up especially when they turn out as well as this one had.

Nice place, can get a little cooped up when its crowded and busy, but I think they have an upstairs for reservations or parties, maybe.“

“My husband and my mom threw me a 40th birthday party at The Monkey Bar. We had the huge porch to ourselves, wonderful wait staff, and the management was great to work with! Highly recommend looking into this place for events - truly perfect evening!!“

“Reliable neighborhood bar with great bartenders. Fridays during lent they have a semi-limited fryer menu because they are selling so much fish because it's a great deal, quick & good. Its beer battered & fried. Its pretty large. For take out, ask for the bun to be on the side and to not salt your fries or put the salt seasoning on the side (they can be a little salty but if you have a beer in hand, you're good to go).“

“Came here on a sister date and was not disappointed! Free parking which is an extra plus! The decor for Halloween was great! Definitely added spice to the atmosphere! Angela, the owner, is great, super friendly and personable! I had the Carmel apple pie cocktail and pumpkin spice White Russian and they both were tasty drinks! They also decorate for the holidays so I will be back to check it out! Highly recommend on checking this tap house out!“

“Great bar, especially on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday nights“

“I ❤️ this place!!! The staff is wonderful, the owner is super friendly, and the cooks make amazing food! Plus, they have a pool table, darts, and a great selection of beer and spirits! Highly recommend!“

“Hysyde is a good time! Food is good. Drinks are good. Bartenders are attentive...and the music sets a good tone. I haven't been out in a while and I had a great time.“

“Best spot everrrrrrrrrrrrr“

“Excellent wings and terrific service. They have some unique flavors that other places do not have. Their fresh cut fries are excellent.“

“Cash-only with ATM inside. Fun grungie bar, great for music and a nice punk vibe. Got to witness the debut of a metal band 🤘

Pool table in the back with friendly folks to rotate in with.

Great beer specials and fast service at the bar. Menu is very hard to read on the wall opposite of the bar, but food is solid.“

“Four points has quickly moved into our favorite brewery to visit in the city. We haven’t had a beer we don’t like and the bartenders have been incredible each time, so kind! Also have appreciated that they’ve been family friendly. Being newly postpartum, you hope to find spaces you used to enjoy that still work for your family - and they have been nothing short of amazing in making us feel we belong. Great atmosphere, beer, and music - can’t go wrong!“

“Wanted to make sure I wrote this review bc of my amazing experience. First, to get this out of the way… really cool vibe, great beers at great prices, and a great spot for local music. I went recently to see Sacred Monsters who were in town from Philly. It was the lead singer, KP’s birthday and we wanted to do something special for her. Long story short, Toy is amazing. Not only did she help with the surprise but she… on her own… ordered cupcakes for KP since I couldn’t find a cake that met her dietary restrictions. She was so helpful and enthusiastic about helping. I can’t wait to go back.“

“Bishops is the classic local place to go, where strangers feel like family! TV’s for watching sports, TouchTunes for good music, great food and always consistent and full bar! Great service where you’ll be treated with the best local hospitality. Right off the highway in a convenient location“

“Great food and atmosphere!!“

“Such an iconic Pittsburgh bar. Always something going on here, especially live music. Had the smoked wings which were a 10/10. The bartenders are awesome. There's a TV mounted on the wall so the people at the bar can watch the show, nice. Had a blast. Place was packed. Also, the biggest urinal in Pennsylvania.“

“My husband and I had our wedding rehearsal dinner here since it is where we had a our first date. They were so accommodating and even helped us to move locations last minute due to weather. The drinks were delicious, as always, and the staff was so kind.“

“Service/Food is great. Wings are killer. Really nice feel to the place with TVs as far as the eyes can see. Perfect ballgame bar.“

“OMG where to I start!!! This place was AMAZING! Food was great. Drinks are strong! Bartenders are super cute and the
Security is top-tier. I came into town for the Buffalo Bills vs Pittsburgh Steelers game and this place will always be a stop for me in Pittsburgh. MUST TRY!!!“

“We had a rental place down on Sycamore and we stopped here for a evening of libations and pool table fun 🤩 the bartender was great and the drinks and service were excellent. Don’t hesitate to stop here a great Pittsburgh Bar. We stopped here several more times during our stay. Also good bar food. A cash only establishment“

“I recently rented out the goldmark for my 30th birthday and it was nothing short of awesome!! The bartenders, Jill and Lindsay, were so kind, attentive and helpful!! The drinks were amazing, the DJ was great (Dr. Dap), the location was top notch, the atmosphere was a total vibe. The communication with the owners on what we needed, when we needed it, any helpful tips, was all phenomenal. I would highly recommend!! THANK YOU!“

“Great bartender Great wings“

“Great neighborhood bar since 1939“

“Varied music genre’s and groups; other activities as well such as karioke, thoughtful owners, expanding food menues based on recommendations and concerned about the surrounding community regarding noise a debris created by some late night customers. Pizza coming to the menue this week!!“

“Just started going to the Theme a couple of weeks ago. We were looking for a change of pace and more for our money. The Theme did not disappoint, great drink specials & daily specials. Food is great especially the sandwiches and pizza.“

“Awesome dive bar, cute decor. Bar staff is friendly and added custom touches to our drinks! Juke box with excellent music crankin’. We didn’t have the opportunity to eat - but definitely recommend the drinks!!

Parking: Parking can be a little tricky, fold in your mirrors.“

“Great bar and awesome staff! Fun, different, and super welcoming — really a bar for everyone. Drinks are made with fresh-squeezed orange and lime juice, which is such a nice touch. Good mix of music and a great vibe overall. My sisters and I were visiting Pittsburgh for the first time and ended up here two nights in a row. We would’ve gone the third night, but it was Sunday and they were closed. Total hidden gem!“

“Very welcoming place. Great food and good prices!“

“We got the Lent special and I am allergic to fish (not shellfish) and they opened a new fryer to cook my food separate. Nowhere has ever done that for me. We will be back!“

Located within Carrick, this bar is steeped in local history and community spirit. The ambiance at Sophie's Saloon is reminiscent of the classic neighborhood bar, familiar faces, a cozy setting, and a sense of community that makes everyone feel like a regular.“
