    Riesling. Yum.
    Brenda W.

    Pittsburgh has so many music venues. I really am impressed. And this little cozy, intimate setting is superb. "Intimate" is the word described over and over in other's Yelp reviews and that is the most appropriate description. Came here to see the band "The Accidentals" after first seeing them this summer at the Three Rivers Festival downtown. They were billed with Jake Allen and Rising Regina as the first acts. For 12.00 each plus service fees my husband and I got to enjoy 3 acts and 3 hours of music in a quaint setting. Doors opened at 7pm with the first act playing at 8pm. We arrived at 7:30pm and promptly parked right outside the door with our great car karma, I kid you not. What a fantastic start. Then, upon opening the door, there were 2 seats left in the entire place at the bar. Again, fantastic, in a space with about 10 chairs at the bar, some with backs, some not (ours not). Then, there's an open space and after that some tables and chairs but not all that many. Our spot at the bar was perfect for viewing the band with no heads in front of us with people standing for most of the entire show. Sweet! They have a decent wine/beer/cocktail menu and several dining options. We had already eaten so just partook of some glasses of wine. The only downsides to give this a 4 vs. a 5 star rating was the fact that 1) my first glass of wine was served in an extremely dirty rimmed glass -- so dirty that the bartender should have noticed before I, or rather, my husband did and after my first sip. Eww... 2) mid-way through the last act's performance, the bartenders were nowhere to be found for quite a length of time. I ended up asking the front door ticket-taker about that so we could pay our tab before the rush at the end of the show. It all worked out and the venue for a small concert is ideal! But, be sure to get there early so you won't have to stand the whole time!

    I have come to this little cozy venue twice now. The first time was to see a band I know and it was fun but the place is only set to hold 50 people comfortably if that and it was packed. This last time we went was nice. We got a cozy little table and ordered food. My friend got the chicken sandwich which he said was delicious. I ordered the four cheese pizza which wasn't bad and size of the pizza was awesome for the price it was. Then we got the cheese plate as an appetizer which was tasty but way over priced and there wasn't much on the plate at all. Now as for the crowd and music It was fantastic! We had a blast they were so much fun to watch and very interactive with the everyone. Reason I gave this place 3 starts was our table was wobbly and off center when we sat our drinks/food down the table would tilt. The cheese plate was way over priced. Other then that the staff and atmosphere was great!

    Nice stage and fun for small town bands. The gentleman helping get all the musical instruments together was very helpful and informative. Nice tap beer selection! And a lot of bottles as well. However it did take us 30 minutes to get our pizza, but it was delicious, light, and absolutely homemade!

    I've been to hundreds of concerts across the country and I'm attempting to write a review of every venue to assist my concert going troubadours. Elizabeth Cook - August 7, 2016 One of my favorite venues in Pittsburgh. It reminds me a lot of the Bluebird in Nashville - very intimate, urban lounge setting, great sound. I have intimacy issues, so sometimes a little too close to the artist. The staff has always been friendly and the prices seem about right. My only grip is they don't seem to use social media correctly to promote shows. I often don't hear about shows until they are sold out or passed.

    Great place to watch a show. Ticket prices are reasonable. Seating is limited with approx 10 tables that may seat 30-40 people. Also approx 10 seats at the bar but standing room otherwise. Definitely get there early if you want to have a seat. Full bar. Food and drink service was quick. It was packed when we went and everyone's tabs screwed up so I would just get my own drinks from the bar next time. I was a little unsure of how the food would be since it's bar food, but it was actually pretty good. The four cheese pizza was larger than I expected and was very flavorful so I highly recommend it. The bathrooms could use a touch up.

    Do they have open mic night? If so, when?

    Not that I am aware of & also they are sadly supposedly closing their doors at the end of December 2024 with shows scheduled nightly until December 30.

    3.5 stars. The Finch is a rooftop bar and restaurant that is named after the Joseph S. Finch &…read moreCompany's distillery that was located in the building in the late 1800s. The bar serves cocktails, wines, beers, and mocktails. For dinner and late-night bites, the restaurant focuses mostly on small plates and shareables, including charcuterie, chicken wings, pizzetta, steak, and salmon. They also have a Sunday brunch that serves lox bagel, shrimp and grits, French toast, mimosa, bloody Mary, etcetera. My husband and I ate one lunch here. The best aspect of The Finch was its beautiful views of downtown Pittsburgh's skyscrapers, Monongahela River, and subway trains. The foods and drink were a mixture of quality, and my husband called them "garbage" (eek!). Here are my ratings for them. Berry Mint Spritz - 4 stars - This mocktail (I could have ordered it with alcohol to turn it into a cocktail) contained strawberries, mint, lemon, syrup, and soda water. All of the flavor had settled on the bottom of the glass, so I could have used a straw to mix the drink, but I did enjoy the flavors. Summer Crab Cakes - 2 stars - I received two crab cakes, and they were some of the worst crab cakes that I have ever received anywhere. They contained too much breading and too little meat. I did not even like the flavor of the cherry tomatoes on the side. I usually love crab cakes, but with these ones, I could take only a couple of bites, and then I had the waitress throw away the rest. Hawaiian Pizzetta - 4 stars - This small pizza consisted of four slices that had cheese but no gooey cheese-pull. Other toppings were BBQ sauce drizzle, pineapple, ham, and red pepper. I thought that it tasted good. Ember Steak Skewers - 4 stars - My husband said that the steak was not the highest quality. At least the chunks of steak, peppers, onions, and mushroom (we counted one piece of mushroom!) were marinated and seasoned nicely. The total cost for this one mocktail, three foods, and one soda was $79 *plus* a 3% credit-card surcharge, tax, and a minimum tip of 18%. We asked the waitress for a receipt, but she did not bring us one, so we walked up to her to ask for it again, and we did receive it.

The atmosphere alone is worth a visit. The drinks are definitely crafted with care and have a lot of complexity, but with only two bartenders working, it took quite a while to get ours. Not the place to go if you want quick service or are grabbing a drink before another event. My biggest downside is the price point--most cocktails are around $17. They're good, but at that price I can really only justify having one. Note: They do not have food, just snacks like peanuts. Overall, amazing ambiance and well-made drinks, just expect slower service and a higher bill.

Super cool entrance and fun comfortable lounge upstairs. It's a fantastic place to go as an intimate group. But it's kind of small to take a group of more than 4 friends. Cocktails were made surprisingly quick even on a busy night. Everything is just really great about this place. Except for maybe the price lol but at least you're getting what you pay for in a good way
