FÍOR PUB GAELACH.
As an Irishman who travels the world I have to say this is the first Irish bar I have encountered where the barman spoke perfect Irish with a lovely Connemara blas! I dropped in for a quick view and
stayed about 5 hours. This bar is uniquely Irish and not one of those characterless franchises. Indeed, it is more Irish than most of the bars at home!
The clientele and staff were the friendliest I have encountered in Pittsburgh. It was the first good 'feed' of guinness I had for months and it was perfect. The shepherds pie was perfect and nearly as good as 'me mother' made at home!
This bar has been a gem to find.…
Just OK. The owner Dave was simply not friendly. The food was just OK. The band that was there was amazing and the bar set up is pretty good. It has kind of a locals only feel to it and it wasnt very warm or welcoming.…
Disappointing for 'Irish' Pub. This place seems to be going even further downhill since the first time I visited 5 years ago. The menu has dwindled and no longer carries staple Irish appetizers, and drinks & food are horribly overpriced. A whiskey sour with cheap whiskey passes as a $5.00 drink. Three pieces of fried mozzarella are $9.25. The wait staff and bartenders are mostly indifferent. Unfortunately the atmosphere every time I've visited has been cold. Apparently they feel that an Irish pub consists of serving Guinness and scheduling a band named "Corned Beef & Curry." But if you're visiting from a city with a strong Irish cultural element, you will be very disappointed with this pub.…
Mixed bag. Some Great, some not so good..
They have some great items on the menu. Cuban sandwich is bomb, better than Kaya's cuban. They have a bad habit of removing menu items that are good. At one point they had a great pulled pork
sandwich, and a bbq quesadilla, both of which are history. The irish food is average.
The drinks are a bit overpriced for a place that also serves food.
Like the menu, the waitstaff is a mixed bag. Some days you get waited on hand and foot, and others it might take 20-30 minutes to get your first drink (in a nearly empty place mind you).
Take note of their entertainment schedule... At all costs avoid karaoke night... its a bunch of 40 year olds singing bad songs from the 70's.
Their happy hour is very generous, offering FREE WINGS AND SUBS with the drinks. You can get a decent meal along with your liquor 5:00 every day....
The liquor selection is slightly above average. Its a good place to hang out and talk with friends casually. I usually don't start my night out with friends saying "I'm going to the harp", but somehow It ends up being the least evil choice along the way and we have a decent time there.
They get a bonus star because they stayed open during last year's great flood when the electricity went out and kept me and my co-workers dry and drunk for the hours that we had no where to go to.…
Best for beer and music. Very popular local music venue. Nice Irish/American Pub atmosphere. Friendly service. Food is generally pretty ordinary.
