| - Gastropub? Umm, no.
Sports bar? Eh, not in the traditional sense.
Local watering hole that serves very good food, has an amazing beer selection and enough televisions to watch any of the local black and gold teams? Yes!
I needed somewhere to stop halfway between OH and MD and Monroeville seemed just right, especially to watch the Steelers game so close to the city. But I had no idea where to go until Yelp saved me again with Dad's Pub & Grub.
There's nothing fancy about it, but please refer to what I said above: an unexpected but amazing list of Winter lagers on draft and a menu of wings, dogs and burgers that had me scratching my head. This dilemma was compounded when I saw the couple's order next to me, which included the Yinzer Dog covered with two strips of bacon, homemade mac & cheese and cheese sauce. Uh yeah, a definite heavenly WTH moment for my enormous appetite. But did I succumb and order it? No, because apparently I'm an idiot.
Well, actually I got something very similar instead: the Yinzer Burger, topped with the exact same stuff. And yes, it was as frickin' awesome as it read and looked! I'd definitely get it or that monster dog again in a second. Oh, and it apparently came with fries too, but with the tasty burger and awesome brews keeping my divided attention, I don't even remember them. I'll just say they were good too. 4.5 Stars.
