What a hidden gem in Squirrel Hill!
I don't typically frequent Squirrel Hill because I find it out of the way and not that exciting of a spot to grab drinks in. A friend suggested we hit up Hidden Harbor on a Saturday night around 6 pm. The place was PACKED when we arrived. There was a short wait for a table so we decided to find a seat at the bar. A friendly bartender greeted us right as we sat down - this is corny but I love that the staff wears Hawaiian shirts. Our bartender was super knowledgeable about the drinks (all their tiki-style drinks have a ridiculous amount of ingredients so it's a toss up to choose one), he recommended the rum barrel as I wanted something strong but without an intense rum taste. The drink was delicious, and definitely strong. After the rum barrel I opted for a Tecate as the tiki drinks are kind of pricey to have multiple.
After having a drink or two, we ordered the nachos with pork. They were good, but nothing out of this world. Probably wouldn't get them again. Moral of the story - Hidden Harbor is cool for a yummy cocktail but not really a place you stay for hours.
