Hop Farm
Despite the name, not everything here is a mouth-puckering hop-fest. They have normal beers too. ;-)
Coughlin's Law
Celebrate making it to the halfway point in the year with a Mt. Washington run at Coughlin's Law.
Dancing Gnome
What dances do you think gnomes prefer? Salsa? Tango? Polka? Square dancing? Maybe they know at the Dancing Gnome.
Moonlit Burgers (Garfield)
There’s a new place where Primanti’s used to be in Garfield. I guess Moonlit Burgers is taking off!
City Works
Hope you had a great Memorial Day. Celebrate the official start of the summer downtown at City Works.
Bigham Street Tavern
We heard it loud and clear: “More Mt. Washington!” So, we’re headed back up the hill.
Industry Public House
Cinco de Mayo! At Industry! We intentionally avoided all Mexican restaurants! Because we’re not idiots!
Park Place Pub
Park Place Pub was named after the second most expensive square on the Monopoly board. (Not really. I make stuff up sometimes.)
Steel Mill Saloon
New place! Enjoy a spring run up on the top of Mt. Washington. (“Enjoy” is a subjective term.)
The Yard
The NFL Draft is about a week away, let’s scout our game plan before the crowds descend in Market Square.
Scratch & Co.
We’ll see your McArdle, and raise you one Pig Hill. It’s been a long time since we’ve been to Scratch.
Esquina Cantina
The artist formerly known as Round Corner Cantina. (We are on a bit of a Tex-Mex streak, aren’t we? We’ll change that up next week.)
Mad Mex (Shadyside)
It’s St. Patrick’s Day, so we shall celebrate in that most traditional of venues… a Mexican restaurant.
Piper's Pub
Last week at a German place. This week we go British at Piper’s Pub. Blimey!
Max's Allegheny Tavern
We haven’t been to Max’s in a while. Be cool with the player piano, OK? Don’t overdo it. We don’t want to get kicked out.
Ruggers Pub
If you’re already missing football, maybe consider rugby at Ruggers Pub. All the violence, less padding.
Monterey Pub
A new place for the running group (I think). Cozy winter run on the North Side.
William Penn Tavern
An old Pittsburgh bar in a new-ish (depending on how long you’ve lived here) location.
La Cantina
New place, by request! We can celebrate Dia de los Reyes! (And enjoy the Oakland calm while the students are still away.)
Mike's Beer Bar
Time for the holiday lights run! Don’t miss Santa and elves playing baseball at PNC Park - just across from Mike’s Beer Bar.
Aslin Beer Company
You can check out the newly installed Pittsburgh Walk of Fame on your route to/from Aslin!
Two Frays
Whoops! Let’s try that again. We’ll go to a place that’s actually still open. Two Frays.
Cupka's Cafe 2
It’s Thanksgiving week. I’m thankful that at least some things in Pittsburgh haven’t changed, like Chupka's 2.
Federal Galley
Are you one of those people having nightmares about being trapped in a mall? Don’t worry. Federal Galley is next to the building that used to be a mall.
