Fanattics is the friendliest bar in Squirrel Hill. The bartenders make it a point to know your name and remember you after your first time visiting. It is not a superficial friendliness either, I've only been there three times but I feel like I've known everyone who hangs out at Fanattics for a long time. The patrons are just as friendly as the staff. Within five minutes of sitting down I had people telling me their life stories.
Most people who hang out here are in their mid twenties to early thirties and hang around the pool table or just chill out at the bar and watch some random game on the television.
Fanattics probably has the best drink specials in Squirrel Hill. Every day has some beer for 1.50 and Tuesday nights is $3 micro and import night. They also have food specials every night but I have never tried the fare offered here but it looks like standard bar food choices.
If you are looking for a friendly, low-key night try Fanattics and you won't be disappointed.
