41 Best Pubs in Pittsburgh

“Fabulous dinner, unique menu, we had Fried Green Tomato Sandwich, Guinness Roast Beef, Fish and Chips, and Salmon, then shared the Bread pudding, all was excellent!“

“I had some good food and good beer. Location is nice (good parking) and all comes with it. Great people to talk to and I'm from 70+ miles away.“

“Not the same as it was, but the new owner is passionate and the staff is top notch. I miss some of the charm of the old vibe, but the Pub is in the hands of someone who appears to care about the place, while following her own vision. Still one of the best spots to grab a Guinness, eat a little (good) pub food and share a good conversation.“

“Can’t wait to go back. One of my favorites places in Pittsburgh“

“Best spot everrrrrrrrrrrrr“

“Great neighborhood bar since 1939“

“Dive bar vibe - Dark & Vintage. They're hot cheese balls were pretty good. They were not the best cheese curds that I have ever had, but they were decent. If you like your cheese curds extra cheesy, these are for you. We also got 2 burgers were which were extremely large, & cooked well done which wasn't very good. The fries were subpar and the chips were just plain generic ruffle chips -not made in house or anything. I would have loved another option to not have a side. This place was not super expensive which was cool but probably wouldn't come here again.“

“Mikes beer bar has great food and great service. He is a big supporter of our veteran organization. His servers are great .“

“I ate before arriving, so I didn’t have any of the food. But the kitchen was pumping out orders the entire time I was there. Drinks were generous with alcohol. Bartender was nice. Atmosphere was light, like I came with one friend felt like I knew everyone else I encountered. Good music choices were made on the jukebox. I enjoyed myself.“

“Haven't gone in years, turns out new owner, got the honey jalapeño boneless wings & were great. Bartender was nice and even enjoyed a chat with the manager on accident, nice people, good food, good experience. Got yelled at for smelling like smoke but you'll have that“

“Wonderful staff, amazing food, and a family friendly dinner spot. We try make it to Jamisons at least once a month. It's worth our 30 minute drive.“

“Great place to grab a Guinness and a hot dog and watch Arsenal! Friendly staff and great atmosphere.“

“If you want an authentic Irish experience, this is the place. Great service. Great music. And, of course, best pour of Guinness in the city. Don’t sleep on the Harp!“

“Lots of Bacon on the BLT, real Nieghboor good bar“

“This is the bar everyone wants to go to, it was packed out both times I went there, I ended up leaving the second time because there was no where to sit(at the bar). But the wings I had were super spicy and tasty, the service was good for how busy they were and the beer was flowing.“

“Great food. I reccomend it for the german cuisine. Gotta try the saurbrauten, but my fave is the kielbasa“

“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.“

“One of my favorites in the city!“

“Absolutely love this neighborhood gem on the North Side! Mike and Jason always make you feel right at home with their friendly vibes and top-notch service. The drinks are fantastic, but the hospitality is even better. If you're looking for a cozy pub with great people and a welcoming atmosphere, this is the spot“

“Love the new look! Nicely done 👍 the drinks are fun and the menu 😋 Hawaiian food!! Some dishes I never had and well made. The food is provided on plastic plates however it’s a bar. Totally understandable. Fun. Great selections of beer. Great music. The staff is kind. The food didn’t take long and the prices are right. Parking can be tricky. You just have to get lucky. But totally worth it. Love the roof top. Took my HS son for lunch and then another time for dinner with friends. They can also host private events, something to consider. Not handicap friendly. If you can definitely check it out. Kids okay during the day, I wouldn’t do evenings. Gets crowded and more of a bar scene.“

“Old school authentic neighborhood cafe with full bar. Adorable Greek owner, a talker *love it*, entertained us with life experiences, cafe history, three owners over 91 years…award winning foods…the gyro, the spicy sicilian, and the Spartan (the hubby had this, fabulous), each one, separately, winners of first place, three years in a row. This was our first trip to Pitts and our very first stop. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! The food! The welcoming company! felt so at home, far from home♥️Thank you!“

“Unique and fun overall experience. Food was good but a little overpriced for what I got - shrimp and lobster Mac and cheese for $35 was overpriced for what was delivered, but it was still good. They’ve done a good job overall and glad to see a beautiful church repurposed. As a Christian, I was unsure of the concept and felt a little uneasy about the beer brewing stuff being at the altar, but overall glad the building is being repurposed and not torn down, and still highlighting the beautiful architecture.“

“Friendly, fun environment.“

“Would highly recommend. Fantastic service, friendly staff, fun atmosphere and amazing plus creative food and drink.“

“Was in a real predicament when caterer for daughters wedding did not show up, these folks did not hesitate when I called to provide me as much as they could quickly. The chicken was delicious, the guests said they were glad the other place did not show up😁they truly helped me salvage the night. Class act and awesome food.“
