Hidden Gem in Sharpsburg! Incredible Smash Burgers & Custom Cornbread Magic…read more ​If you're hunting for a phenomenal local spot with incredible food, amazing energy, and owners who make you feel like family the second you walk through the door, you need to check out The Brinery in Sharpsburg. We stopped in to celebrate National Cheeseburger Day, and let me tell you--it did not disappoint! ​The meal kicked off right with their crunchy shoestring fries, which hit that exact standard of crispy, golden perfection we look for. ​Here is how the main event shaped up: ​The Burger: I went with the Signature Smash Burger with the House Sauce. Absolute perfection. The edges had that incredible, lacy crisp while keeping the meat juicy, and that house sauce tied the whole flavor profile together seamlessly. ​The Gluten-Free Win: My wife ordered the Wings, and a massive shoutout to the kitchen here--they make them gluten-free using potato starch! Finding spots that safely and deliciously accommodate gluten-free cravings is always a huge win. ​Now, let's talk about the grand finale. They were out of their famous peach cobbler cornbread, but instead of just calling it a night, the owner spontaneously whipped up a fresh batch of coffee cake cornbread on the spot... and it was AMAZING!! That level of hospitality and on-the-fly culinary creativity is next-level. ​ The Verdict ​The owners are exceptionally welcoming and friendly, and the overall vibe inside the shop is just fantastic. Outstanding food, great energy, and a true Sharpsburg standout. That box is definitely checked, but I'll definitely be back again soon to try out one of their weekly specialty burgers!

Thankfully our waiter brought over a small fan to put in the middle of the table which kept flies off of our food.

But - I found myself over by Ross Park Mall and was starving, so I decided to give it a go. After finding a parking place in this bizarre parking lot, I popped in. The greeting from a very cheery team was so nice! I was checking out the El Jefe bowl when a really friendly employee offered me a tiny cup with some of the bowl's adobo-spiced chicken with its yummy cilantro lime dressing. Sold!! I thoroughly enjoyed my bowl -- the black bean, charred corn, avocado - YUM! I'd opt out of the tortilla chips. They do NOT reheat well, and who needs the added calories!! Definitely planning a return visit!

We would have loved to sit out on the patio but it was just way too HOT outside. The restaurant is located in a historic building. Taylor was our waitress and did a great job walking us through the menu. Of course, we start with (10) wings, dry seasoning style with bourbon honey and BBQ bourbon sauces on the side. The only thing that was disappointing was the baby carrot -go the extra mile and prepare carrot sticks! We also ordered the Pitt Bull pizza topped with bacon, cup pepperoni, and crumbled sausage, it was excellent. Definitely looking forward to coming back to try more pizza options and hopefully enjoying the patio next time!

The fresh tastes, unique parings, it all just hit the spot. We started out with a ton of appetizers, pulled pork nachos, with beer cheese, crispy calamari and a delicious Spanish octopus. I definitely recommend trying all of these! Their beer cheese was so good, I was legitimately jealous when the lady at the table next to us got their giant soft pretzel, and it came with the cheese. Definitely getting that next time! Matt got the iberico special, a beautiful pork steak with a peach corn salsa and saffron rice. I opted for the steak frites, a perfectly cooked picanha cut with shoe string fries. Think your favorite burger places fries, and add a ton of bougie. This is a great spot, nicely decorated, and the staff is genuinely friendly. The noise level wasn't bad either, even for a Saturday night. We will definitely be back.

I don't know what was in it that made it slightly spicy, but any concerns I had about it being dry were silly. It was so tasty! He also ordered the BLT wrap with hot chicken, which was really good - but the hot in hot chicken was no joke, it was spicy! He also ordered the burrata marinara with grass fed beef meatballs, and carbonara with fried chicken. I was stuffed after my wrap, but he said everything else was really good and you better believe we have leftovers for later!

Situated on North Park lake right next to the kayak livery with ample parking in the park, this is an ideal place to cool off and get some sustenance after your park activities.

Good selection of craft and mass produced beer choices as well as other cocktails. Some interesting appetizers like spring rolls and house dip with chips as well as pretzel sticks and beer cheese. Main menu includes salads, burgers and sandwiches. The ranch is house made so don't forget a side for your fries!

There can be a wait during the lunch and dinner hours, but it's worth it. The first impressions are amazing. The inside is small but nicely decorated. Your eyes want to dart around and take in all of the elements that surround you. On our last visit, I was surprised by a bike hidden up in a ceiling nook I had never seen before. The whole restaurant has a breathtaking view of the man-made lake at North Park. Be sure to sit outside so you can take in as much of the view as possible. The atmosphere is abuzz with activity: there are runners taking on the 5-mile loop around the lake, there are kayakers and stand-up paddle boarders setting off to explore the far reaches of the lake, and there are birds and turtles and fish livin' their best life. My family and I have found our favorites on the menu: the Bike Lane BLT and the Chimichurri Chicken Bowl. Both are really good, but we tend to lean toward the BLT. It's just so unique! The kids' meals also come with a cute little surprise: the plate is a frisbee that they get to take home. How cool is that? North Park is easily one of my favorite places in Pittsburgh, and this is just another reason why.
