| - I tend to come to Hal's often. Its off of McKnight road, one of the better bars in the North Hills-ish area in my opinion, better than the Fox and Hound at least in my opinion. Its a small place, dark in atmosphere, mostly a sports bar but also a place where you can make reservations to sit down and eat. I usually come here to start the night and watch the Pens or Pitt games before heading out for the night. Its a good place to watch a game, has lots of nice flat screen TV's.
Their food menu is pretty bar generic with good wings, a hefty build your own burger, pizza, and they do have some steaks, calamari, and roast beef type stuff on their dinner menu if you want a heartier meal. I really come here though to suck down the Garlic Parmesan wings. Probably the 2nd best wing I have had in my many wing travels. I usually prefer hot wings but their hot wings just consist of Franks Red Hot Sauce which is kind of generic for me, but the Garlic Parmesan are out of this world. Trust me, you'll want to lick the drippings out of your dish after eating them.
There are about 8 beers on draft, mostly the basics, but they have a wide range of bottles to choose from. Also they have a ton of liquor if that's your thing. I've had some really strong drinks made here, mostly around 5$ for a mix drink and I wasn't complaining due to how nicely made they were.
I was here last Saturday with a group of about 8 people who made reservations for 7:30 and the place was still pretty packed around midnight when we all left. I've never really had bad service here at all, and especially this night when it was pretty crowded and with such a big party we were all satisfied with how fast our drinks were filled and how good the food tasted.
Hal is usually the big tall guy standing at the end of the bar kinda watching over things. He's a good guy.
