“A group of 4 of us stopped here for dinner and ended up coming back later for a little pool. A great local spot that was very convenient and friendly. There was a lot of food options and everything we ordered tasted great. I had the meatball sandwich with pierogies as a side. The staff at the bar and table were very nice and very helpful - it turned into a legendary night.“
“Highly recommended!!!! The super, fresh and crispy fish and chips would be enough for 5 stars. But there was also the excellent service, the delightful and caring owner and the atmosphere in this historic restored stone house. We sat by the fireplace which was also something special.“
“Neighborhood Pub We end up here time & time again even though we don't live in the neighborhood. It's a great spot to beat the summer heat or cozy up on a cold, rainy Pittsburgh evening to enjoy your friends' company, a game on tv (they have the ticket & offer football specials), or chat with the friendly bartenders. It's so cozy & comfortable. This adorable Irish pub is one of our favorites in Pittsburgh because it not only offers a great Guinness or Black & Tan for my husband to enjoy, they also have a great cocktail menu including their classics and seasonal features! Recently I've even had some great Mocktails here. COCKTAILS Scarlet Coat: paddy's Irish whiskey, angostura bitters, orgeat, lemon, aquafaba foam - a bitter vegan riff on a whiskey sour Irish Serpent: reposado tequila, st. germain elderflower liqueur, yellow chartreuse, orange bitters, lemon twist - unique & tasty Red & Green Mojito: mint, lime juice, strawberry purée, sugar, rum, club - tastes like summer! MOCKTAILS Peach Cobbler Marg (w/ zero proof tequila) - not only beautiful, but also delish. Great flavors for fall. Maple Whiskey Sour (w/ zero proof bourbon) - the faux bourbon flavor was just a tad too smoky for me, but this would be so good with real whiskey We always have a great time here. It's super relaxed with chill staff & is a great place to escape your worries after a long day or even to kick off the weekend! Check them out in the Lawrenceville neighborhood if you're looking for a pub in Pittsburgh.“
“Was very disappointed in the meat lover's Flatbread. It tasted like tomato paste for the sauce and the meat has no flavor. It was plain. I suggest to anyone don't get it. My fiancée had thier Italian hoagie which he felt bad and gave me half of his sandwich to eat. The bartender did ask if I liked it. I did let him know about the pizza not being too good. He just looked and didn't say anything and walked away. I'll still come here. But that flat bread has to go. I don't even see how that one is on the menu! Everything else so far I tasted from there is good.“

“NGL this grilled cheese - cheese burg combo was a dream. If you ever thought to yourself, "this burger could use a grilled cheese," "this grilled cheese could use a burger" or never thought any of those in your life but love GOUD cheesy food- this one is for you. The Texas toast (don't know if that's what it was but that's what it felt like) was buttered to the gawds above. Ruggers knows the CTS (cheese to sando) ratio and went above and beyond the call of duty. The burg patty was flavorful itself and held its own up next to the overflowing cheese mountain that surrounded it. The fries were a perfectly salted addition to the sando. It was as mouthwateringly delicious as it looks and #GOUDapproved from all angles over here. Mondays are also taco night so you gotta pick up a few tacos SIGNATURE! Grilled Cheeseburgher Our 3 cheese grilled cheese sandwich with American, Mozzarella, and Swiss. But with a burgher patty in the middle. Substitute our Banzo Burgher patty to make it vegetarian. $11“
“This is one of those places where absolutely everything on the menu is delicious. In my opinion, the best wings in Pittsburgh! You must try the Candy Pepper ? . Be aware, this is a smoking establishment, so, if that bothers you... Other highlights are the Butter Steak and the loaded fries! Yummmmmmm!Parking: Parking is on street, but this is just above a small park area with plenty of spots since no houses.Kid-friendliness: Not Kid friendly. 21+“
“So, I wish I could give the Loft, specifically, seven or eight stars. Great environment, great bartenders (Paul is just the nicest guy in the world, honestly). A great karaoke night every Monday. And I actually came here to say this: someone stole a six pack of beer I had bought, and ERIN, the gm, just insisted on replacing it, even though it had nothing to do with their establishment. I thought that was incredibly cool, and I think this place, mgmt and bartenders, will take care of you no matter what.“
“The Bulldog is an all around lovely experience. The food- absolte 10/10. Staff 10/10. Drinks 10/10. I'd like to keep this a secret but it's too good to not share. Not to mention, the owner is a gem and deserves every bit of the business.“
“Reserved deck area for a meeting/working dinner. Meal was very enjoyable. So much more I want to try on the menu, so will go back. Not the best meeting space, though. Lots of noise echo and not all of the wall plugs were working for chargers. But that won't keep me from eating there again. Food was delish!!“
“Was in town over the weekend for the Steelers game and wanted to check out places I’ve never been.I knew when I walked in the door and the bartender was wearing a Pumpkinhead shirt I had found what I was looking for.This will be a must stop whenever I’m in Pittsburgh and next time I’ll make sure to come hungry. Menu sounded bomb!“
“I’m traveling from Oregon and stopped by for drinks and food. This is an amazing establish. Reviews don’t do justice. Highly highly recommend stopping by for a quick sip and bite. Everyone was really kind to me. As a solo traveler I wasn’t sure what I would get into. I got a simple shrimp in the basket and it was SO GOOD. Omg. I can go on and on about Squirrel Hill Cafe. From Oregon to Pittsburgh, put this one on your list to check out“
“This place was beautifully redone from previous bar. I love the layout and all the selection of alcohol. Got the smash burger and friend got bision was perfect and we loved it. Prices are good as well. Thank you for fast and friendly service. .“
“Super confusing at first having two very similar menus next door to eachother. Then while eating realized one spot is a chippie and the other a pub The scotch egg was great. I'd prefer a soft yolk but have only had one like that once in 25 years. So more that happily accepted. Bangers and mash were in fact banging. I'd definitely eat here again“
“Was there for a private party of nineteen people. Had the back room.Had the two piece fried cod with fries and salad. The cod was cooked perfectly and the fries were good. Wife had broiled cod with haluski..both were excellent.The server was also excellent. One server for the party. She was on the ball and never had to wait for a beverage refill. The only negative would be only one pasta on the menu.Would definitely recommend and will return.“
“Our first time here and it was great! A really fantastic beer selection, for starters. The food was so much better quality than the average restaurant/pub. Comfort food can sometimes be so basic and generic but the food here was REALLY impressive, fresh, perfectly seasoned and tasty. We'd go back in a second if we didn't live so far. Oh and the service was really good! Friendly and attentive.“
“have always had fun here.No one ever stole my money. it's a Pittsburgh thing you go to the bar when you leave your money on the bar no one ever stole my stuff perhaps people that I think that happened to them maybe they drink more than one drink good place good music Good Company“
“This is Highland Park's only remaining bar, with Sports TVs. I hope the local beer drinking, sports watching public keeps this East End Institution in businessParking: If you are willing to walk, within 2 blocks you will find a spot. Don't Block Driveways!“
“What a fun little spot to stop in for a drink before & after an event. We dropped by for the 1st time b4 the Pens game (& after if course). The owner Jimmy was so gracious, so friendly to talk with. The crowd wasn't too bad (we even started taking to a few other PENs fans, that was nice) , the food was really good. So if you're looking for a good place to hang out, grab a bite & a drink be sure to stop at Shale's. I know I'll definitely be back.“
“Burgers were outstanding! Juicy and cooked exactly as requested. I had the Yinzer with an egg on top. Friendly, helpful server was eager to customize the burger however you want. Fries were great too. Large selection of tap and bottled beers.Parking: Good number of free off street parking spots.“
“The epitome of a great pub experience! From its inviting ambiance to the extensive drink selection, it's a haven for socializing. The staff's friendliness and expertise elevate the atmosphere. With live music adding to the vibe, it's the perfect spot for a memorable night out. “
