There's a special place in my heart for The Livermore. Known for its deliciously creative libations and subdued atmosphere, The Livermore is a great spot for drinks whenever you get that "I need a drink" feeling. Located in the heart of Pittsburgh's East Liberty neighborhood, The Livermore attracts a diverse crowd, but generally millenials that don't mind spending $10+ on a crafted drink. The liquor selection is diverse and (for the most part) the bartenders are well versed in making anything your heart desires. Tell them a color and a scent and they'll often make you something that's pretty spot on. I'd feel better if I were able to give 3 1/2 stars because I've notice a huge shift (a negative shift) in the skills and professionalism of some new bartenders. Colin, a former bartender, and another or two have left and have been replaced by not so great individuals. Allie (blonde) remains and is super awesome, friendly and makes stellar drinks. Livermore, can you please clone Allie and lose some of the newbies? I'll continue to go here and take my out of town guests, but I really hope some of the bartenders improve their professionalism behind the counter.
