Ugh. Why change a good thing?
I haven't been to bites and brews in a few years and actually didn't know they renovated since I don't live in Shadyside so we went in thinking we could get the same pizza that we loved before.
Fail.
Bites and Brews went "hip" (I felt like they were more of a dive bar before - which I loved). While the pizza is okay, it's overpriced, small and very limited vs what they used to have. I loved their huge pies with sundried tomato, runny egg and bacon. But obviously they replaced those with trendy brussel sprout pizza. Their tacos did not look satisfying either. I will say the gnocchi tots were awesome and their beer selection is pretty good.. although they were out of half the items we asked for.
Overall, we won't be back.
