I really wanted to love this Pittsburgh institution. After all, we used to live in Bloomfield, my sister in law is Polish, and I have a healthy love and respect for the pierogi. Not to mention haluski and kielbasa. And beer. And halupki.
So...we stopped at Bloomfield Bridge Tavern last Tuesday night after I taught an evening class. The place was dead silent, which was a bit odd. Honestly, I'm a beer person. I like places that have a nice selection on tap. And BBT was a definite disappointment in that regard. The food was okay, but honestly? I'd rather get my fill of Polish deliciousness from S&D in the Strip. I guess I just expected more.
The one thing that deserves 4 stars was the service. Our waitress was attentive and brought my water and our beers promptly. It may be worth revisiting on weekend night to give this local institution another shot.
