Editorial Review for Foster's – by Brandy Brubaker
The Scene
A grand piano and multiple paintings of legendary singers and instrumentalists greet customers who step inside this atypical hotel bar. A spacious room with an elevated stage, Foster's hosts local musicians on Sunday nights while the rest of the week, patrons often stop by to catch sports games on the big screen television. Whether the TV is on or off, multiple chandeliers--augmented by track lighting--infuse the space (with its handsome wooden bar) with a pleasingly upbeat glow.
The Draw
The Sunday night sessions are what keep locals and college students coming back. Often Pitt professors provide the tunes and undergraduate crowds but whenever you go, a hip blend of casually cool Pittsburghers from all walks of life will be sipping well-mixed drinks that are meant to be sipped, not chugged. This is a place for hanging out, not getting drunk. So get in a mellow mood.
