About Monk's Bar

Monk's Bar is a cozy and intimate spot, nestled in the Northside of Pittsburgh. It is known as the smallest licensed bar in Pennsylvania, comfortably seating 10 people in a snug arrangement. Housed in The Priory hotel, a former monastery that once served as a library and vault, the bar offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The bartender, Michael, is recognized for his friendly personality and expertly crafted drinks, including a standout dirty martini and an interesting specialty cocktail selection. Guests can enjoy unique drinks, such as the carajilo, a delightful mix of cold brew coffee and rum topped with whipped cream. This hidden gem is worth visiting for a unique and memorable experience.

We each enjoyed a newly created pumpkin cocktail, which was delicious, and on our second round, my husband tried the monktini, which he loved, and I got to be a Guinea pig for a new cocktail that Micheal was developing. It was a s'mores cocktail, and came with a side of 3 s'mores. The best and most fun part...read full review

We discovered another one of Pittsburgh’s Northside gems tonight. Great cocktail menu, cozy atmosphere, and excellent service. Thank you, Rachel!
