Mitchell's has upped its game adding a 24 tap system, with 20 rotating crafts. The prices are reasonable for a downtown establishment and a great place to go if you are parking and walking to an event at Consol, or hopping the T to HeinzField or PNCPark. They also hired a new chef, he is formerly of the urban tap, and brought a new and inventive menu with him. The classics that Mitchell's was famous for are still here but the menu compliments the changes they made that the front of the house. One final note. The bar area is non-smoking during the day (great for business lunch or happy hour ) but becomes smoker friendly later in the evening. Highly recommend Mitchell's read more

Top self restaurant. Lunch is off the charts. If your a genuine Pittsburgher this is where you belong. Try it out you will see. Tell them Big Bubba sent you. read more

Mitchell's Pub - American Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

I recently had my wedding shower at Mitchell's Restaurant in their upstairs banquet room. I would 100% recommend others to use Mitchell's for their next event. We worked with Gina who was extremely nice and professional! They were flexible on the layout of the room, food selection, and bar selection. Also, the cost was very reasonable. On the day of our event the food was delicious, the drinks were great, and Gina was there to make sure everything ran smoothly. Planning a wedding can be challenging, but having the wedding shower at Mitchell's was a true joy! I have attached some pictures from the shower. read more

See all

Okay... normally I like Mitchell's- but today they had the Corn Beef and Cabbage/Potato special for St. Patrick's Day. Well the cabbage and potato were just boiled with no flavor and the corn beef was lunch meat probably cooked again-now has lost all flavor. I was so disappointment. And I hate spending money on food that just is not good. Sorry. Thank goodness I had hot sauce and pepper. read more

Best cheesesteak in town. The bread is baked fresh and delivered everyday specifically for the cheesesteaks. The meat is to die for, thinly sliced right off the eye of round and then fried up in its own fat. Tell them to lightly toast the bread and you'll have a foodgasm. read more

I usually leave my office at 1PM daily for lunch with a few friends dubbed the "lunch crew" and we often frequent Mitchells. When you walk upstairs to the main dining room, nothing jumps out at you except for standard, basic, run of the mill. Typical cafeteria chairs and tables. One day the "lunch crew" was looking for a burger and we gave the "MitchBurger" a try. Needless to say we have never ordered anything else since. In the basics of a good burger and sandwich, this burger hits all of the basics, with a few problems that they have since changed. Let me breakdown the construction of such. A few pros and cons. Cons. They used to put the lettuce on the very bottom, which with a hot burger would make the lettuce wilt and become slimy. And thats it for the cons. The Pros. The burger itself is not frozen or pre formed. It has that rustic hand made look. The bacon is thick and crispy and the pepper jack cheese provides a nice heat and texture. The onions are red and sliced into thin rings. I opt for no tomato. And then they add this magical "mitch sauce" consisting of a hot sauce / ranch blend. Just a filling burger that hits all of the right notes. Downsides to the Mitchells experience are small but are important in any restaurant review. When you ask for a water with lemon, ask for extra extra lemons because the portion provided are extremely small. The french fries included with sandwiches can be hit or miss depending on how under or over cooked they are. Other then that, we are able to always get in and out and back to work on time feeling very satisfied! read more

Quick service.. Decent food.. Ok price..

Mitchells is my favorite place to go downtown! The food is great and the staff is AMAZING! You cannot beat the hospitality!

Went here between sessions of the NCAA basketball tournament for a quick dinner. Upon entering was told to go upstairs to dining room where a limited one page game day sandwich menu was presented. My friend ordered the fish sandwich which looked ample but not big by pittsburgh standards. I ordered the fried shrimp and they brought out 7 teeny little breaded frozen shrimp not even worthy of being called an appetizer. Major disappointment as the place was full by the time we got our food, which made sending them back and waiting for another selection impossible. This place needs an overhaul... Went back downstairs and saw people enjoying full chicken dinners... Where were they on our menu??? I wont eat here again read more

Great place to go on st Patrick's parade day! Good food, family friendly. A little pricy but worth the food and really nice waiting staff as well read more

I can't think of a more Pittsburgh bar and restaurant than Mitchell's it's the oldest in Pittsburgh and one of the best. Drinks are reasonably price and food is great. Don't even get me started on the atmosphere there, they really know how to make you feel at home. If you're unsure of what to get just ask Matt and he will tell you all you need to know. I don't know how else to get you there just stop reading and go already read more

Walked in with high expectations, and certainly was not disappointed. Waiter was kind and attentive. Got the mushroom burger cooked medium. If you like your burger anything under or over medium well, just ask and they will do it. Burger was fantastic and would highly recommend. Also got beer braised buffalo wings, and loved them, but they were $8, which is kind of expensive, but not to bad. Definitely recommend it, and give it a solid 5 stars. read more

Mitchell's has improved so much I've r the last few years. The food is no longer diner quality and is very good. The specials are always appetizing. The beer selection is very good. Sara, the bartender who serves my lunch and beer is outstanding. Grilled chicken needs some work but overall this place gets a thumbs up. Oh, the cheese sticks are killer. read more

Been coming to Mitchell's for almost 20 years, and the service has been a consistent exceptional over the years, and I'm sure it was good for the eighty before that. The staff and customers are almost like a family, always make you feel welcome. As busy as they get sometime they always treat the customers great!! And what a great meal at lunch!! Try the Sparta burger!!! Or the hot turkey!! Total awesomeness, and the bar is open till 2AM Monday - Saturday, not many places in town do that!!! read more

Definitely one of the better spots in Pittsburgh if your looking for a nice hearty meal. Staff is very friendly, management know their stuff and they just got a new 24 tap system so there's a great selection of beers. Would recommend this place to any out of towner. read more

Joe is absolutely amazing. Love coming here after a hard day at work and unwinding. Makes you feel like family.

Excellent service and excellent food. Had one of the original dishes turkey and it was amazing. We will be going back.

Several experiences later, I've decided to share my opinion about Mitchell's. From their friendly service to their delicious/reasonably priced meals, Mitchell's is a unique spot that's too often overlooked. For every mood and every palette, there's a meal and a beverage to go along with it here. I highly recommend anyone to grab a bite to eat at Mitchell's - read more

I don't get downtown often but when I do I always stop in Mitchell's for a Mitchburger or whatever awesome specials they have that day. Matt Mitchell is one of my best friends growing up so my opinion may be a little biased but I can tell you that he and his Father Jim are more passionate about what they do then anyone I know. Anyone that knows the Mitchell family will tell you that they are non-stop workers. All Matt has talked about since we were little has been Mitchell's and all his projects and plans for the future. I feel like they're the last true family business left downtown. The atmosphere there is something you can't just create yourself. They pour their heart and soul into that place and put in more hours working than I think is even healthy. Jim Mitchell is the absolute man and if you ever stop in, ask for him and I'm sure you'll end up finding something in common and hearing some crazy stories for an hour while you have lunch. Matt is definitely his father's son and is the same way. It's been awesome knowing them all these years and watching their business grow. Bottom line this place is great and I hope they keep going for another 100 years! read more

Gotta say if you are on a journey of family restaurants mitchells should be your main destination. Had the pleasure of meeting the owner and his son while I had my lunch and they are very delightful people. They also have an outstanding night cook!!!!!! Whatever they got goin on in the kitchen day and night you can never go wrong I'll be returning a hundred more years. read more

Mitchell's is my favorite spot downtown!! The staff is courteous, friendly and will always make you feel welcome. It has an energetic atmosphere on game days as well as a lively crowd for their special events (HIGHLY recommend their quizzo on Thursdays). It is located within walking distance from the arena, making it perfect for pre/post game cocktails. I would put Mitchell's up against any of the downtown bar. Ask for Sarah and tell her that Scott & Pavel sent you! :) read more

Thank god they are finally closed for business. The food was horrible. Place wasn't that clean.

Great place for lunch and happy hour. Food is always delicious and you can't beat the daily specials.

We had our work Christmas party there last night and it was fantastic! We have the upstairs reserved with a food buffet all set up. The food was excellent and the staff was great. Everyone was laughing, smiling and having a great time! Would definitely recommend having more parties there!! read more

Don't miss the Thursday Night Happy Hour, $2 off craft beers. Still would be nice to have a food selection.

Went here for a PaintNite Pittsburgh with some coworkers. Great location for the event (had the upstairs reserved with the upstairs bar just for the painters), but the downstairs non-smoking section was extremely small and cramped and the service was very poor (very slow for the 4 tables she was tending to, messed up our checks twice, told us they had things then didn't, never asked how things were, etc.). NEVER DO THE TACO TUESDAYS OR 3$ MARGARITA SPECIAL. The taco shells were so stale they were disgusting, the meat had no seasoning/dressing. I wouldn't expect a great taco for $1, but taco bell would be a better choice. So if their other food options are anything like it- I HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND. I wouldn't expect a great margarita for $3 either, but there was not a drop of alcohol in it- pure mixer/sour. Before ordering it, I asked the waitress how they were and she cued some girls sitting at the table next to us, they tried being nice in their response of "eh they're pretty weak". Another coworker tried a burger instead (better choice), but for the price for it to not include a side- not worth it, plain jane burger. Overall, I do not recommend. read more

Food was good, but you can make no exceptions to the menu. Simple things like provolone cheese in the chicken wrap instead of cheddar. Or a hard yolk instead of a runny yolk on the farmhouse burger. Disappointed. Won't return. read more

Awesome food! Corn chowder was delish. Smoky ranch dressing was superb. Very nice people, great service and the vibe of of old-fashiony games was cool read more

Went for lunch while visiting Pittsburgh and had the Greek salad with salmon. It was delicious! Amazing selection of beer on tap. Even better was the friendliness of the staff. I will definitely come back next time I'm in Pittsburgh. read more

Great place! We drove all the way from Baltimore just to come to Mitchell's for one night. Sarah and the support staff will always make sure u have a great time. :) read more

Great food awesome oldies music! Prices are not too low but affordable. There is smoking allowed but that does not bother me so no points taken there. If you are downtown and want a drink and great american lunch go here you wont leave hungry. I have had the turkey dinner and was delicious and I was stuffed. The burgers and fries are awesome! read more

So my coworkers talked me into going here again, but this is very last time I will ever spend my money in this place. They charge for every little thing. Everything is a la carte. And the service lacks. You cannot get a refill unless you bug the heck out of your waitress. And even then, they begrudgingly do it. Nickel and dime you to death. Luke warm food. Luke warm service. Never again. The food, though barely warm enough to stomach, is, at best, ok. They have apparently been in business for over 100 years. How they've maintained any business now a days is beyond me. Spend your money and your precious free time from work elsewhere. read more

Very good service. Very good prices. Food was very good value. Nice after work location with friendly staff and non-sketch patrons. Will go there again. Tons of craft beer choices and awesome happy hour rituals. read more

For the second consecutive time I went there for lunch, we waited for our food until we were late to return to work. Both times our meals were free, but the meal they gave us was wildly incorrect. Missing ingredients and sides or just straight up the wrong entrée. And it's not like we had special orders or allergies. Wonderful service and employees, but do not go here for lunch. The food is ok, but not worth the hassle. read more

Cafeteria quality food for restaurant style prices. Seriously, I feel like I'm back in elementary or middle school every time I eat here. I will never voluntarily eat here, but will only go if someone forces me into it. read more

I ordered the Mitchburger today for lunch by recommendation by my manager. It was a bit more spicy than I thought it would be but still great! When I got upstairs it was pretty busy and I was afraid that my wait would be long. But the service was fast and attentive without being overbearing. I was very pleased by my experience and will certainly visit again! read more

I did not pack my lunch today and decided to eat at Mitchell's. I am a vegetarian and I ordered the Roasted Vegetable Wrap with a side of mashed potatoes - no gravy. When I brought my meal back to my desk at work (which only is a 3 minute walk from Mitchell's). The wrap was soggy, and filled with grease. I had to wrap the sandwich with paper towels to absorb the grease. There was too much cheese and the vegetables were overly cooked. The texture and the tasted of the mashed potatoes were odd. The mashed potatoes tastes like the cook mixed instant mashed potatoes with canned diced potatoes. The waitress was very nice and was proud of being a Michelle's employee. I will not be dining there any more read more
