Came here on a Friday night for fish and chips. Lucky for us it was the weekend before St Patrick's Day so there was live music and a ton of people. We walked to the bar and grabbed two seats just as people were leaving. Hubby enjoyed fish and chips. I devoured their Lamb Stew. The best! Had a couple Guinness beers and a Harp. read more

This was definitely a dive bar vibe which was to be expected. It was dark and dungy with sticky floors and bar tops. There was live music with local talent and a busy vibe. I only ordered a beverage so cannot speak to the food they served. Definitely a great spot for late night drink. read more

This world has way too many "Irish" bars in it. If you're in the mood for a fantastic take on an Irish bar located in the United States, I highly recommend Mullaney's Harp and Fiddle. A proper plane to get us, outstanding live music, and an authentic vibe. Is it Irish? No. But you're in Pittsburgh, so what would you expect? Stop by with a good attitude and you'll be repaid in spades. A true neighborhood bar with a laid-back atmosphere and everything that a true neighborhood Irish bar would come with back on the Emerald Isle. read more

If you're in Pittsburgh's Strip District, Mullaney's Harp & Fiddle is a must-visit! This neighborhood Irish pub is the perfect spot to bring friends together. And they're now open on Sundays, showing live soccer and football games! They also started serving- The Irish Roll! It's a fresh roll stuffed with Irish bangers, bacon, white pudding, hash browns, and a fried egg. On the side, they serve beans, a sauce, and fresh-cut pub fries! The vibe here is amazing, all the staff makes you feel at home!!!! & --Irish dancing classes every Tuesday, and live music on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. They have indoor and outdoor seating on their deck!!! read more

super cocktails and the ruben egg rolls are on point! i e missed the live music but service and atmosphere can't be beat!

A fun little Irish bar in the strip. I stopped in this week to grab dinner and I tried their shepherds pie. It has a little different twist on it, I'm used to it not having melted cheese on it, and the potatoes being a bit more whipped, but the cheese was very sparingly used and had these crispy onion bits on it too. I loved it, highly recommend! read more

Mullaney's Harp & Fiddle does it right! The Irish breakfast roll was SO good. It's authentic, hearty, and a huge portion. Perfect comfort food and such a great way to spend the weekend. We came down for Sunday brunch and to catch the Steelers game... giant screen inside for the game, plus a sweet patio outside to soak up the last of the summer sun. Excellent service. Definitely worth the visit! read more

Started Friday night with dinner to check out location the day before St. Patrick's Day. Very busy place and like everywhere now-a-days short on staff. Our food took a long time to be delivered as our waitress forgot to place our order in the kitchen. But things happen and we were fine on waiting. Came back the next day for St. Paddy's Day event. Staff did a good job on servicing a lot of people. Good place to hang on St. Paddy's Day. read more

Stopped for a quick beer - And boy was it a good one. An older established crowd in a low ceiling, darker environment with an older gentleman singing Van Morrison with a guitar with an occasional violin. Fantastic for a pint of Guinness. Cant even imagine how fun this place is on St Pattys!! read more

Good Guinness, good atmosphere, and live music 5+ days a week. It wants me to reach 85 characters...so this is the extra it needs to let me post my review. read more

Came in on a Sunday before an away Steeler's game and was blown away by the Irish Breakfast roll. It was deliciously washed down with a Harp Irish Lager. The service was also friendly and speedy. I hope they can keep up the Sunday tradition! read more

I had somewhat of an odd experience at Harp & Fiddle this past weekend. I had only ever previously gone on St Patrick's Day, so we walked in expecting the same lively atmosphere. Instead, it was almost completely sit down restaurant ambiance with no music playing & no socializing outside of people's individual tables. There's not necessarily anything wrong with that, but it just wasn't at all what we were expecting. The beer was fine, but there wasn't anything really special about the choices. Bar service was also fine, and I saw waitresses checking in on the tables. Given the awkwardness we felt when we walked in, however, I don't think I'll be back. There are plenty of other spots on the strip that have a more fun atmosphere (if that's what you're looking for). Food: N/A Drinks: B- Service: B Ambiance: D+ read more

Very impressed with my dinner I had the bangers and mash was probably the top 3 best things I've ever ate in my life

Harp and Fiddle, is an old school Irish pub located in the Strip District. They serve some typical Irish pub food and Guinness is always on tap. I first came here several years ago with friends to enjoy the live band. Since then I hadn't been back until just this past year. They typically have live entertainment on Friday's and Saturdays, which is a big draw for me. We came here on the day of the St Patrick's day parade around 11:30 am. Nothing will quite prepare you for a day of day drinking like going to Harp and Fiddle on parade day. We were early enough that there wasn't too many people yet in the tent. They were charging $10 cash to get in the door. I don't mind paying a door fee but they did not advertise this and of course it was cash only, so SOL if you are a card carrier such as myself. Go find an ATM There was a cash bar inside the tent over the deck where one band was set up and inside was a packed sea of people you couldn't maneuver around if you were lathered in oil. I was thinking we were in trouble when arrives a lovely server who kept us supplied with the motor oil the rest our stay, and she took cards! I would recommend stopping here, most especially on a weekend to check out a band and have a cold Guinness. Fun times to be had at an old Irish pub. read more

Service: Pleasant and helpful Ambiance: Cool bar area with patio seating available as well. Themed nicely and generally a cool place inside Food: It was okay, I really expected to it be better based on everything else about the place. Short rib sandwich was okay, Reuben was okay, fish and chips also just okay. The shepherd's pie was good, and that will be my move going forward there Overall: A cool place to go in The Strip district with pride in what they do. Shepherd's pie appears to be the play read more

The Bartender Declan the Irish spelling (Deaglan) is the Rudest most ignorant Bartender I have ever met in my Life. I went there on Tuesday night to see the Irish Band. The First time I have ever been to this Bar/Restaurant, and the Bartender Refused to Serve me because I did not Tip every Beer I normally Tip 20% or more at the end of the night. I had my empty glass on the edge of the Bar and he walked past me 4 times, and I said excuse me may I have a Beer. He said and I quote "I only Serve people who Tip" There was a couple sitting next to me from Detroit Michigan visiting Pittsburgh, and the Gentleman looked at me in Shock and said I have been to a lot of Bars and I have never heard a Bartender treat a Customer that way! The Server Ashley, who was a Sweetheart got me my Beer when she was behind the Bar getting Beverages for her Tables. I WILL NEVER GO BACK TO THIS PLACE AS LONG AS DECLAN IS BARTENDING!!! read more

This was a good Irish bar. Guinness was served wonderfully. Had a good menu of Irish food. I like the shepherds pie. I was surprised Pittsburgh did not have more Irish bars. But, this one made up for that. I understand they have live Irish music. We were not interested in that and we're glad the band was not playing because we wanted to have some mild conversation. We would definitely return here again. read more

2.5. The restaurant is conveniently located at the farther end of the Strip. However, because of the new businesses nearby, parking is a big issue. This was my first visit. The interior is small and decorated like you would expect an Irish bar. We arrived before the musician started. Even before the music started it was pretty loud inside. I expected a better beer selection. The table beside us got fish and chips and it looked good, so I opted for that. The chips were decent, but I'm sorry to say the fish was bad, it was a greasy mess. There was a light, coating of breading in the outside, but it was greasy and the fish inside fell apart and was greasy. I just didn't like the fish. Oh and I don't notice it until it was too late, but they have a cash and a charge fee on the bill. I'm so used to throwing down my card to pay and realized after they ran it through that I was charged $2 more to pay by card. read more

Awesome spot. Great people, good music and delicious Guinness One of my favorite in Pittsburgh.

Still awesome! The best Irish bar in the Burgh and they have real English darts!!!! Irish country dancing on Tuesdays is great fun. The menu is much smaller since Covid, but the food is always delicious and the service is warm and welcoming! read more

Typical Irish bar that you would find in New York City. Stopped in Friday night. They had live music, and the band was very good (I didn't catch their name). Sat at the bar. The female bartender liked to banter and kept the Guinness flowing. My pint was never empty for long. Had the Shepherd's Pie. It was tasty. Woke up the next day a bit gassy.....Could have been from the Shepherd's Pie.....Or perhaps it was the many pints of Guinness? No matter. Still had a good time. read more

The food is amazing! The staff are the nicest people you will ever meet! 10/10 would recommend.

Got the Reuben and it was just okay. Everyone else got other dishes, best looking was the fish and chips. Might go back and try something else, but for the most part just okay. read more

Exceptional food, drinks, staff and atmosphere in the Irish jewel of the 'Burgh! The must-stop for Irish themed recreation and music. There's always something going on. Toss some darts, watch a soccer match, sip a Guinness, maybe a wee drop of Dew...but no matter what you're going to have a great time. The rainbow stops here...where's that leprechaun!? read more

Came here because it was recommended from a friend. I only stopped in for drinks but wasn't impressed. They didn't even have cherries for the whiskey drink I ordered. The bar was sticky & felt old & run down inside. Service was mediocre & I felt uncomfortable not being "a local" read more

Great food, awesome atmosphere and the waitstaff was the friendliest in the area! It was an awesome Irish Pub experience. 100% recommend.

I may have come here on a bad night but I would strongly not recommend this place. It's a quick pub but our dinner took over 2 hours. We waited 45 minutes for the server to take our orders (she kept saying she'd be right back). And my biggest regret is not asking for my money back for my burnt filet mignon. I had to cut the "seared" outside off to make it taste like anything other than charcoal. I will say that their fresh bread is delicious and warm but that's unfortunately where I have to leave this review. I've heard this is a great brunch place, but our 8:00 Friday dinner was terrible. read more

I have been here many times. It is an awesome local dive bar in the strip district of Pittsburgh. My most recent visit there was live music and we had a few beers. I've had their food before and it is delicious. The best weekend here is St. Patrick's day they make it a huge festival and add a tent to the back patio. I'm never disappointed here. I recommend this place if you're in the area. read more

I haven't been here in years and probably why I've never Yelped about this place. I guess at one point you could say I was sort of a regular because my ex-husband is a musician who performed here a lot. I've definitely missed what I would consider to be the closest thing Pittsburgh has to a real Irish pub. Stopped in yesterday (March 15th, the start of St. Pat's weekend) for dinner right after work. Arrived just after 5 pm and there was already a crowd but not packed yet. I imagine that probably changed around 7ish. I love that not much is different. Still serving great Irish pours and whiskeys, Friday live acoustic music and the food. Still pretty solid fare. We shared the shepherds pie which is one of my favorites because the seasonings are spot on and the mashed potatoes are light, fluffy and super tasty. Prices are good and so is the service. I wish it hadn't taken me so long to get back. Now that it's back on my radar I'll frequent more often. Cheers. read more

I've been to the Harp a handful of times over the years, but I've only eaten there twice. Once was quite a few years ago and the second time was this past weekend. The first time I went, I got fish & chips, and I was so unimpressed that it's the primary reason that I refused to eat there since. BUT this past weekend, my wife ordered the fish & chips and wow...awesome! I would definitely order them going forward. It's a huge piece of fish, though, so be prepared. I'm not sure what changed, but I'm glad it's improved. I opted for the blackened tilapia sandwich, which was also really good...and larger than I expected. My only complaint was that it seemed like a lot of roll even for the entire filet being on there. The creole mustard/mayo was good, but I used it sparingly. The side of chips (fries) were good and had that typical hand-cut taste. We also ordered the mussels for our appetizer and they were really good. The Smithwick's broth was a different take on what we'd usually get our mussels steamed in and was delicious, and the mussels tasted fresh. Overall, the vibe at the Harp is fun. Their large dining area has a dining hall feeling, which doesn't work for me when it's not busy and you sit down to eat, but it's good for their live music nights (which they have plenty of). I prefer sitting in the smaller bar area. The bartenders are always really nice and there's a nice neighborhood bar feeling when you're up there. I'd say my only real semi-complaint is their limited whiskey options. If you're there for a Guinness, you're going to be happy, but if you want some whiskey, the limited list of Irish whiskeys may be underwhelming. We were told that they're working on making an actual list and adding to it, and there were some perfectly fine options, but you'll be disappointed if you want something even a little adventurous, like a Connemara or something. Regardless, it's a nice, laid back option in the Strip, and if you're in the mood for some fish & chips you're really limited to two excellent options in town: Piper's Pub or the Harp & Fiddle. read more

The food and service are always solid at the Harp and Fiddle. I've been there in small and large groups and everyone has always been happy. The pretzel sticks and Reuben are two of my favs. They also have an excellent selection at the bar and offer live music some days. I also appreciate that at my most recent visit they were following all local mask and health dept ordinances! read more

I was here recently for a baby shower. I thought it was an interesting place to hold the event so I was a bit apprehensive. I was here one time before when my partner played a music show so I was like, hmm for a baby shower? But I just went with it. We got in and the lower part of the restaurant was where the babyshower was. So people could still walk through and go to the bar but we had the bottom basically to ourselves. Now I will say that since the restaurant part was right by the door everyone who was going to the bar had to walk through the party. Not a huge deal but kinda an inconvenience. A few times people were like is it open or can I come through. It just was slightly distracting. But the space was open and fun. The kids at the party got to play on the stage. And they seemed to like that. It wasn't baby friendly so much but it's a bar so I didn't expect it to be. The snacks we got to try were a meat, cheese, and veggie tray as well as chicken nuggets and meatballs. The food wasn't bad. I will say the chicken was pretty good and I ate my fair share. I wish there were more veggies, those went really fast. But that was more of an order problem than a representation of the place. The meatballs also weren't bad. I don't know if I would say pick this place for a party like this, but it worked. And if you are ok with it then go with it. The only question I have, do they have ADA compliant bathrooms? Because the bathrooms that we were told to use were in the basement down steep steps. That might be a point to also consider. Other than that, I like it here for drinks and music but might think twice about a baby shower party here. read more
