We stopped in around 6:30 on Friday for some drinks and snacks. The salt and vinegar chicken basket (strips and fries) was the perfect thing to share. The place looked great and the outside area looked cool, but was not open. Lots of big TVs and great bar stools - comfy with a back - but no bar foot rail or hooks under the bar for purses. The bar is really big and there are booths and high top tables in the bar area, with nice, big bathrooms downstairs. We’ll definitely go back - seems like a good place to watch a game.

I walked in to the Derby and I was taken by surprise by the aesthetics. Kate instantly greeted me asking what I wanted to drink. I told her and she quickly delivered with no hesitation. I instantly recognized her from The Flats and was super excited to be reunited. She’s efficient and prompt delivering excellent service to the patrons as always.

Went to the Derby on opening night and it did not disappoint! From the outdoor area, drink, multi level bars, everything was top notch. Not to mention the DJ was amazing! The Derby is just what Pittsburgh night life needed. Can't wait to go back when my friend comes back to Pittsburgh in December for her birthday. Great job guys!

They knew what they were doing when they brought this spot to Lawrenceville? I loved the change of vibes from the first floor to the second, giving you an option to sit & chat with friends or to be loud, sing & dance. The outdoor area also was beautiful, not to mention the third floor for private parties! The dj played great music, staff/owners are all great people, drinks were delicious, I didn't yet get the chance to try out the food but everything I saw coming out looked delicious so I'm very excited to go back and check out their menu! Highly recommend!

Just checked out the new spot on Butler Street, and wow, it’s exactly what the area needed! This place has brought such an incredible vibe to the neighborhood—think energizing, lively, and just plain fun. It’s quickly becoming the weekend hangout for anyone looking to unwind or catch a game with friends.

The atmosphere is spot-on for sports fans, with big screens perfectly set up so you can see the action from pretty much any angle. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just there for the energy, this spot makes watching the game a total experience.

And I have to give a shoutout to Angel, one of the bartenders who truly elevates the night. Angel is amazing—not only is she super attentive, but her positive energy just lights up the room. She makes everyone feel welcome and adds so much to the fun vibe here. Honestly, between the exciting ambiance and Angel’s warm energy, this place is bound to become a local favorite.

It has a neat vibe and an upstairs. There is a bar and a backdoor enclosed outdoor bar which is cool! I like the black theme.

I updated my review to be five stars, because they don’t sllow smoking!

Visited on a Saturday night, had food and drinks downstairs, and everything was excellent! You could tell the mozzarella sticks were hand breaded and not frozen- delicious! Our server Kylie was so friendly and attentive. We went upstairs when the DJ started and had so much fun! Definitely would go back! A great addition to Lawrenceville

Went to check out this new place on Saturday and had a great time. Kate the bartender was very personable. Timmy and Josh were also great. Prices were fair and the environment was comfortable and easy going. Will definitely be back.

I came here to visit a friend. I live in NYC and this place was on par with Manhattan drinks. The food was good and atmosphere was great. I went to many places on this trip and this was one of the best in Pittsburgh.

Wonderful. A new it spot. Honestly it’s priced well for Lawrenceville. Kate the bartender made great drinks and was working so hard while still being attentive and social with everyone. I will be back and would recommend. 10/10.
