Always a great time with top notch simplistic eats. A good place for friends to gather and surprisingly great for kiddos too! The food is so simple yet always delicious. A great spot for the picky eater people in your life, and foodies alike! The service is always fantastic as well. The last time I was there I got to meet Rachel Ann Bovier and also eat thanksgiving dinner on a hotdog, so that's what I call a 10/10 experience. read more

Such a fun atmosphere (they do great holiday decor). I really enjoy their mozzarella sticks and the burger is good too. Service is fast and friendly. Definitely a good neighborhood bar. read more

OMG the SMASH BURGERS. Look no further. They are definitely legit. It's not fair to the rest of Pgh that the two best smash burgers IMO are like 5 mins apart from each other. The other place has a better burger but this place has better sauces but neither are really too much better than the other. I also got a specialty drink that i sadly didn't not the name of but it was just an excellent alcoholic sweet tea that I referred to as a "spicy turners". The wife's mule was proper, and the staff were great. This place went all out decorating for Halloween even putting a red carpet style sash over name; dubbbing Red's "Bad" News. The pricing of everything was great too. It wasn't cheap which nothing good ever is anymore, but it was definitely a perfect bang for your buck situation. 10 outa 10 would smash that patty again. read more

Red's Good News - A proper smash burger. Of the highest order of smash. - Sports Bars Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

This is the best smash burger / burger I've had! Impossibly crispy edges , delicious sauces (all available at a little stand you can fix for yourself), wonderful fries, insanely delicious chicken tenders. Love this place. Really nice bartender too on Sundays when we tend to go. read more

Discovered this establishment through Yelp! I scrolled through some reviews/pics immediately decided this is where we had to check out. Located in Brookline,just out the city of Pittsburgh. As we approached noticed the outside seating, open roll up garage door style and a crowd, all good signs. The decor is handmade pop culture artwork. We were told you place your orders at the bar so we decided on the smash burgers & fries. A condiment bar is located between the bar & kitchen full of homemade sauces. Get the white Lightning sauce,amazing! Glad we decided to check this place out! Highly recommended!!!! read more

We had a great time at Red's. Not only do they have great food but a killer tap list of both local beers and more. The staff is extremely friendly. There is outdoor seating which make it a great place to hang in the summer. They also have a secret peep hole out front that you MUST check out. Trust me read more

Great spot! Lots of friendly people. Cute vibes and the perfect neighborhood watering hole.

Moonlit is in my neighborhood so we most often land there for smashburgers. But we've been meaning to try Red's Good News for a while and I wish we hadn't waited so long. Burgers were smashy, tasty, and not at all greasy. Bonus: happy hour prices were great ($6 burgers on weekdays). The atmosphere of this place is great; little neighborhood place, charming inside, friendly staff, and you can play a board game, watch a game on tv, drop by for dinner, or just hang with friends. There were solo patrons in there reading a book, on a laptop, and just having a drink. It was comfy like that. Burgers are neck and neck with Moonlit, which is a good thing (less greasy actually) but Moonlit fries probably edge out Red's for me. Food menu is small, which I like--what they do, they do well. This place is great--burgers A+, fries B, my Fizzy Arnold A, and prices A+. Can't wait go back. Solid 4.5 stars and I'm rounding up! read more

I've been to Red's a few times - once before the pandemic (which is when I took my review's pictures) and twice after being vaccinated earlier this year. Fortunately the insanity that was 2020 didn't take this new(er) business down. I think they even took the time to do some general construction and remodeling in the building last year, because the place looks great! While eating anywhere other than my own home feels pretty weird right now, Red's has been a great place to take that first step and "get back out" into the world a little bit. My general impressions of this place haven't changed since I first visited last year. This is a great and cozy little bar - the beer and drink options are solid (and include local beers and local liquors), the "tiny but mighty" menu is very tasty, and the staff are attentive and kind. It makes for a great experience all around. In addition to their indoor seating, they've currently set up three large picnic tables on the sidewalk for diners; they also now have a large window seating area. I've chosen to sit in these two spots with friends during my visits since the indoor area has been packed during my visits. While that's good news for Red's, I'm just not ready to be in close proximity to strangers again! Final thoughts: I highly recommend Red's if you're looking for a local spot to grab a bite to eat or enjoy a drink. The menu isn't the largest one out there, but what they do serve - a burger, chicken tenders, mozzarella sticks, and other bar staples - is very good. Plus, the beer and cider options are pretty good, and everything is served up by a great team that will bring things to you quickly and check on you throughout your visit. 10/10, will be back again! read more

Red's Good News is by far a local gem in Brookline. I've gone countless times and every time is just as good as the time before. They have some creative cocktails that rotate seasonally as well as a great beer selection that are all priced very well! However what keeps me coming back is bar food and atmosphere. Their menu might be limited, however what they have on it is amazing! Their burgers are phenomenal, their fried zucchini is perfect, and the seasoned fries are always crispy. They also have a sauce bar with homemade bbq sauce, ranch, and more to just add to the meal! read more

The food and drinks are definitely make me coming back. Depends on the day, the menu is great all around. Drinks from well to local brews are always nice. This location is most attractive, definitely something else in October which was very beautifully themed as "Red's Bad News" with a bannered over the front of the establishment. It is currently festive and bright, I just wanted everyone to enjoy what it looks like at closing time. I wasn't able to see the floor when I walked in but it was a very merry time. Thanks for keeping me coming back! read more

Owner's a pal of mine so i'm biased but the place is honestly the bee's knees. Killer grub, reasonable prices, always great staff, and the vibe is always right. read more

A nice neighborhood spot for good drinks, good food, and great company. This casual bar has indoor and outdoor seating that you seat yourself when you arrive. To get a menu or service you need to go to the bar, but the bartenders are good at getting to you quickly. Both the beer and food menus are limited, but they still cover a wide range of flavors and preferences. I ordered the pink lemonade cider and cheeseburger, which were delicious. The drink was refreshing on a hot summer day, with a balanced flavor of sweet and slight sour tang. The cheeseburger came with caramelized onions, cheddar cheese and bbq sauce on top. It was a smash burger, which I love, and packed with flavor. They have a self-serve sauce station in the back with buffalo sauce, bbq, ketchup, ranch, mustard, mayo, and lightning sauce to add to your burger or dip your fries in. I highly recommend ordering the seasoned fries, they're perfectly sized for sharing and come out freshly crisp. Looking forward to coming back with friends, as the atmosphere is great for relaxing and everyone is in a good mood! read more

Love the look and feel of this place, though a bit loud - FYI in case your peeps are sensitive. Seat yourself, order at the bar. DIY water and condiments. We both had the signature burgers sooo good! The fries weren't our fave but that's ok. To each their own. I just had a soda, and he some beers. We will definitely be back to try more!! read more

What an amazing price and quality. For fried zucchini at a dice bar you might think it would be bad. Howrver- it was some of the best I've ever had! Also their homemade sauces? To die for! read more

Loved this place! Great happy hour specials. Love the yinzer drinks and vibe. Food was great-fresh and delicious. Definitely will be back!

We love Red's! Another of the small businesses cropping up in this part of the city that is giving us hope for the future of our neighborhood. A great spot to have a beer outside, bring your pup, play a board game. Their burger is great and they have a great rotating selection of drinks. read more

Is this for real or a mirage? An amazing dive bar with great drinks AND food that's good for couples AND families?! Go home, Red, you're hallucinating. Stumbled into Red's in the midst of street fest and staff insisted they could accommodate all five adults and four kids from 9-5 years old, and they delivered. We ate some of everything and drank a lot of good beers. Service was fast and friendly. Great spot, jealous of locals who get to enjoy the good news. read more

Loved this bar. It's an unpretentious neighborhood bar with great food and a good selection of local craft brews. Very reasonable prices.

Great little spot with good drinks, a few decent beers on tap and tasty food options. We had the tender sandwich and burger, both options were a hit and they had many good sauces to try with your meal. Ended up adding on the seasoned fries which was a good decision as they were delicious. The staff was friendly and fast. Check this place out! read more

Holy smokes! Drinks wise, this is a very straightforward local spot, with some nice specialities, but also all of the old reliable options. The theme here is fun and gives it a fun feel, as opposed to just some other hole in the wall... But the food! Was not expecting this little menu to pack such a massive punch! I had the salad with chicken, apple, pecans, and more.. it was to die for, and the fried zucchini was a perfect side to share. I'm craving the meal right now! read more

Good food, good drinks! It was a bit noisy and service was a bit slow but I will definitely go back at not peak hours and try it again.

This place has been open for awhile and I drive by all the time, wanting to stop. The set up of the place is very open with lots of seating. There are picnic tables outside along with seating at a garage door style window on nice days. Inside there's bar seating, hi-tops and regular tables. Prices on everything were extremely reasonable. They have a nice selection of drafts and cans with a smaller menu, but everything we had was so good. The Red's Goodburger was delicious. They have a sauce station where you help yourself to the sauces for sandwiches and fries, which we liked because we could use a s much or as little as we wanted. Lucas, the owner, was very welcoming and checked on us multiple times to make sure everything was okay. For the app, being a Brashear grad, I had to get the Brashear cheese bites just for fun. It's a great addition to the Brookline neighborhood with a lot of foot traffic since it is right on Brookline Boulevard. read more

Reds is the best. I love their smash burgers. The place is decorated so cute just love being there. I hate that I have to go to the bar every time I need a drink though. I really wish they would get a waitress read more

I came here with a group on a Saturday night. We visited pretty late, so they weren't serving food, but as soon as we sat down the gentleman working was nice enough to bring us a bowl of pretzels. They had a great drink and beer menu and they had water that was self-serve (I love that). The best part of this bar was the back- they had an old school box tv with a VHS player and VHS tapes. We all got to sit down and play a movie while enjoying a beer. What's better than that? I found a brunch menu and it looked awesome. I can't wait to visit for brunch soon! read more

Reds is a nice little bar right on Brookline Blvd. very impressed with the friendliness of the bartenders and the wait staff. Nothing fancy inside. Small menu but great food. Lived in Brookline my whole life and the previous names to the bar was zippys and Kenny's. They were dirty bars Was hesitant to try red but what a surprise. read more

Great happy hour and Burgers! The outside seating is also great. We stopped in as a last minute dinner option. We were very pleased.
