The Warren Bar & Burrow

If I lived in Pittsburgh, the Warren would be my go-to bar. The vibe is distinctly millennial, from the emphasis on bourbon to the selection of music (alt rock, so I knew the lyrics to pretty much every song). The sushi is shockingly good for a bar that looks like you should veer towards "pub grub". The staples like flatbreads are solid options though. Portions are generous but not ridiculous. Beyond bourbon, you'll find a wide enough array of beer; I like to see local craft breweries represented so well. Whether you're in a nice suit or a cozy sweater, you won't feel out of place. It's the popular kind of spot that's busy even on a random wintry Tuesday night so expect service to be a bit slower than you might expect. Still, major ups to Johnnie, who brought our food and drinks as fast as the kitchen and bar could make them. She gave nice recs for the rest of our time here as well.

Justin the bartender was awesome. I had him make drinks of his choice and he came up with some delicious bourbon based cocktails. He has his own concoctions that are great! We were in town on vacation and looked for a small local bar with local vibes. This place was perfect, even being downtown in a tourist area. Highly recommend stopping in for a drink or two. Thanks Justin, Cheers!

Traveled into Pittsburgh for a Steelers game and the Warren Bar and Burrow had great reviews, so we decided to visit. This bar was great! The cocktail list was extensive and we enjoyed many from the list. The bourbon and whiskey list had many offerings with all the favorites. The food was top notch for a bar. They have sushi! We had 3 rolls squid salad with our drinks. Very good quality of prep and presentation. The rest of the menu looked great and I wish we had more visits to try everything. The bartenders and wait staff were very friendly and attentive which made it very friendly. Lastly, the music rotation was awesome. ‘80’s, ‘90’s, ‘00’s alt/pop was lively and fun. The high ratings are well deserved.

Absolutely love The Warren! The bartenders are always knowledgeable and able to make my favorite cocktails. Can get crowded on the weekends but it only adds to the atmosphere. This bar is a weekly staple for my friends and I, and I would definitely suggest people looking for a fun environment but still have a great cocktail come here!
