| - If there was ever a restaurant that personified Pittsburgh, it would certainly be Bigham Tavern. Tucked away on Mount Washington on the corner of Bigham St and Virginia Ave, this is certainly a stop worth making.
The atmosphere here oozes that, "hometown-feel-good" kind of vibe, which is only amplified by the wonderfully attentive and friendly staff. Upon walking in, you have the option to sit at the large wrap around bar, or take a seat in one of their several booths and tables. There truly is not a bad seat in the house!
With regard to the menu:
Bigham is infamous for their Wednesday wing night! Also affectionally referred to as Wingsday, the wings are served as flats&drums, or boneless if that's your kind of thing. Yuengling is on special for $3 and wings are $0.50. Very reasonably priced, given the national chicken wing shortage (yes, that's seriously a thing). There's also a wide variety of sauces to choose from, Cluckin' Hot being my absolute favorite (Yes, it is indeed Cluckin' Hot) and Jackal coming in second (think, hot honey mustard). In addition, BT is also known for their mac and cheese, which is well worth whatever amount of calories are in it! The mac and cheese can be served several different ways, and is always brought out in a toasty skillet with a fluffy pretzel bread stick to complete for dipping, yum! You cannot go wrong choosing anything on the menu.
Living in the Pittsburgh area, you see several restaurants come and go. Brigham Tavern is one of those places that has become a PGH fixture, and for good reason!
