The Red Ring is certainly a welcome addition to the Uptown and Duquesne Campus area. The place is clean, has lots of seating, and is not pricey.
PROS: Great pub food. Diverse menu with salads, wraps, burgers, tons of appetizers, and vegetarian friendly items.
CONS: This place can get extremely packed for a Pens pre-game session leaving you to feel absolutely ignored by the bar staff who are overwhelmed with the volume of patrons. Service during non-game times is also a bit inconsistent.
