Urban Tap is located in Shadyside which is a neighborhood that's on the east end of Pittsburgh. It's known for their upscale shops and boutiques. It is also becoming more popular with millennials moving to the area.
I was in town visiting my sister and brother in law for the weekend and Urban Tap is one of their favorite places to eat so we stopped in Friday afternoon for lunch. It was fairly empty so we're able to get seated right away. It's very spacious with plenty of seating available. One of my favorite details about this place were their stools they have at the bar and also at the long "picnic" like tables. They are attached by a metal bar that you're able to swing in and out which makes for easy maneuvering.
They have quite a wide selection of beers on tap that is all listed on the wall behind the bar. You can't miss it as it takes up pretty much the whole wall. The items on their food menu are pretty unique. They have certain items that you won't find at another place.. i.e. Collard Green Eggrolls and Duck and Waffles. I got the Lemongrass Pork Bahn Mi with a side of the herb fries. This is definitely unlike the Bahn Mi that you'd usually get at a regular Vietnamese restaurant but that's to be expected. The pork was nice and tender, and paired with the veggies, it was very flavorful. The only downfall was the bread was a bit too hard for my liking. No big deal though and definitely wouldn't mind coming back the next time I'm in town!
