“I have eaten at Mike's about 10 times since moving here a couple of months ago. It is definately a neighborhood bar. They have the best cheese burger and made from scratch fries that I have found so here so far. The beer has been cold every time and the food and drinks prices are decent. The bartenders are friendly. It is a non smoking bar with an outside deck. I would recommend it to anybody looking for a neighborhood place to eat, drink and watch the game.“
“Went for wing night. I've seen and heard that their wings tend to be over cooked. In our experience, only 2 of 30 wings were over cooked, and we didn't even mind. The wings were perfectly cooked. I recommend the Hot sauce. It isn't very hot. It's a great traditional hot wing sauce.They also do a fried shrimp dish with the shrimp tossed in the wing sauce of your choice. We chose the garlic parm. It was fantastic.They don't seat you so come prepared to figure it out. And maybe come early. It was very busy. Parking was easy though.“
“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.“
“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.“
“The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The food was cooked well and so delicious! The parking lot was full so we thought we might have trouble getting a table but they had tables available so don't let the full parking lot keep you from stopping in.“
“Great neighborhood gem here. If you have a hankering for a Pittsburgh style fish sandwich, this is the place to visit if you pass by.Friendly folks, warm atmosphere, and great beers and outstanding fish sandwiches.Ordered two fish sandwiches three quarters pound of fish on each sandwich(you will not be hungry after eating those of these) and there’s definitely enough left over for a third. Served steaming hot, crisp batter, and tender fish on a fresh hoagie bun. Tartar sauce was very tasty as well - with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle, and yes a strong dash of hot sauce. Definitely got my fried fish fix (5 out of 5). If were to provide any critique maybe the bun could have been toasted a bit more to hold up to the condiments - however, while a bit challenging to manage eating like a sandwich, entire time I was eating the sandwich I had a big smile on my face. Will be back again for the fish!!! …. And maybe the sample a few other things. ( the pictures do not accurately capture the size and make it look a bit smaller that it actually is )Outstanding beer selection, see picture for the entire menu - I sampled the Troeg’s Grand Cacao Stout and was happy I did.Highly recommend this place. If you are passing by this neighborhood definitely check it out.“
“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+“

“Fun little southside bar. I usually go for trivia on Wednesdays and it's always a great time. Only complaint is it's a very small bar and doesn't have a lot of seating.All of the food I've tried has been good also. I highly recommend trying the wings.“
“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.“
“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!“
“If your looking for a white glove establishment with Valet parking this place is not for you. If your want a meal that taste better than Mom's this is it. I had a full rack of ribs, with the hash brown potatoes, the salad was fresh with beets, black olives, cukes, tomatoes, and the home made Rasberry Dressing was like (wow i want to take a gallon home)“
“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 looking for a new place to take the fam for my dad's birthday and stumbled across this place after a little research. It's a little outside of downtown Pittsburgh which is what we wanted because navigating and parking was easy ?As soon as I walked in I loved the atmosphere. Super cool place and hadn't seen anything like it before. It gave a super cool vibe. I also put in a reservation for 11 and we ended up in a private room - didn't ask for it - but more than appreciated that we were kind of closed off in our own space ?Our server was really friendly and on top of everything...giving us details on specials, super on point with service in general, and overall gave an awesome experience. I wish I remembered his name to give a shout-out because I like to give credit where credit is due ?I ordered a full meal here - I will say the clam chowder was ok...not bad but nothing spectacular but I'm still giving 5 stars for everything else I stated above and the rest of the food I ordered. I also got shrimp wontons, which I wish I took a picture cause they were unique and texture was on point and flavor, especially the sauce was great. My main course was there cottage pie, their spin off shepherds pie but with a super flavorful gravy and shaved ribeye with mashed potatoes on top. Everyone at the table wanted it as soon as it arrived and it was awesome! I got a slice of chocolate cake to go which was also really good too ?I'd definitely come back for the atmosphere and to try more of their menu options because I don't think I'd be disappointed - Thank you for a great evening especially on my dad's birthday ?“
“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“
“We stopped for dinner 430ish on a Friday, the place was very clean and friendly. The menu was a specialized menu with a bunch of customer recommended #1s, it was very hard to choose what meals we would be selecting off the menu due to the whole menu was packed with excellent dinner choices. I settled for the Meatloaf special off the house special board (Amazing), and my wife chose the Chicken Picata (Amazing), these are two of most recommended dinner choices by the house and a few friends of ours. We both ordered the House Merlot with dinner which was a good choice on our part (perfect) along with the wine the house places a large flip top bottle of ice cold water on your table for you to drink at your will. Paired with our meals were a side of mashed potatoes and cooked carrots with a side salad (all were perfect). If all of this amazing meal wasn't enough, we had to order the Zattola homemade ice cream over the house made brownie for dessert... everything was way to good to not finish... We left this place absolutely stuffed, and pleasantly pleased with our experience... one side note I would have to say if you chose to go there, please have a conversation with your servers and staff, we spoke to an older gentlemen who I still don't believe he is in his 70s, he was one the most kind, and personable staff I've ever encountered at a restaurant, he made us feel like family and like he knew us for ever, he stated how the food is prepared and the history of the recipes, you could tell he absolutely loves this place along with the owners and he firmly believes in the quality this place provides. The food was definitely enough for us to go back, but just having the small interactions with the gentleman makes me feel that we will absolutely go back... Im sure anyone who has been to this place and has interacted with this gentlemen could probably attest to what I'm saying, as he spoke to everyone... the world needs more people like him in it!!! Well done Zattolas well done!!!“
“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. .“
“Awesome place to hang out. Everyone is super nice, the bar area is clean, kitchen immaculate, bathrooms private and clean as well. The food is reasonably priced, very good and the bartenders are really sweet. I like the atmosphere. Varied age groups and everyone is cool with each other. The lounge area has 2 nice regulation pool tables. Nice DJ area with ample dance floor. Darts are there for those wanting to play as well. Plenty of parking. Easy to find. Not suitable for anyone under 21.“
“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“
“I've only been her twice for lent fish sandwiches so I can't rate anything else. Talk good meal. Crisp fries and a nice piece of fish. Not overly greasy. The staff was really nice. The dining room is unassuming but bright and clean. I'm interested to try other food here.“
“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.“
“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!“
“The quintessential Soccer pub with great beers, whisky and English food. Love that they have vegetarian friendly options that actually taste like good vegetables and aren't just meat substitutes.Vegetarian options: Shepardless pie, Sunday veggie boxty“
“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.“
“Wow. Just wow.I saw this place by accident while looking on maps. I was really interested in the menu and made the trip into the area just to stop by here. I couldn’t have been happier.The ambiance of the entire place is beautiful. Gold everywhere.I ordered so many things off the menu and I was so happy with each one. The pretzel? Astounding. Smash burger? Off the charts. Pizza? I couldn’t stop eating it. Their brews? Perfect.Highly recommend stopping by here and checking the place out. For a bite or for a brew. Especially if they have a band.“
“Good food, friendly staff and patrons. Great specials. Don’t mob this place cause then I won’t have anywhere to sit. A bit dated on the inside and thankful for it, not everywhere needs that ugly new age warehouse look. Something truly comfortable about this“
“Stopped by here on a whim and didn't disappoint. Staff are inviting, funny, and friendly. The wings are NOT fried and are essentially oven baked in a pizza oven. The char is perfect on them and cooked nicely. French fries are fresh cut and not frozen from a bag. Charge you a $1 for dipping sauce for wings which was fine because it's a large cup and not skimpy. I got Genetal Jake's and Origjal hot. Flavor of both was delicious. Next time I'll get a little bit hotter as their pretty mild, at least to me. General Jake's was good, seems like it may have a soy sauce base? I personally like soy sauce so NBD. They do have wing night on Tues with .75 bone in wings. Also there's 8 beer coolers to choose from if your thirsty and 2 on tap. All in all, enjoyed all of it.“
“Great ambience! Felt like we were sitting in a pub in Ireland. Menu is somewhat limited, and if you aren't a beer drinker, seemed like your only choice is hard alcohol drinks or soft drinks. Food that we ordered were appetizers and they were delicious!“
“Gianna was my waitress and she was fast and efficient! I got the pub salad with mesulin gorgonzola red onions marinated tomatoes and the protein was grilled chicken with a lemon vinaigrette.. WOW was this good ❤️ I was also in a bit of a hurry so I only ate half. That's where Gianna sprang into action. She had everything at my table in minutes. She was great and so was my salad that I ate later that evening. I will be back and do highly recommend!!“
