Southern Tier Brewery Pittsburgh: Reviews & Ratings

A little bit on the disappointing side. My Philly Cheesesteak was good, but it was mostly bread and not a lot of meat. Way too expensive for what I got. If you took all of that meat for the full sandwich and put it on half of the bun, it would have been decent. My wife said her BLT was ok, but nothing to write home about.

I know I went after a pirates game so I know why it took a long time to get my dinner, but I had to have my 3rd choice. Their handheld computers grayed out things they were out of. Multiple items completely sold out on Sunday afternoon of a holiday weekend. The food itself was very good and the beers were interesting and refreshing. The brewery doesn't have the ability for craft cans and there are some decent TVs all in 2 areas showing the same things. Go, enjoy, sit outside and watch the sports schedule

Our server Katey was great and super sweet. She was thoughtful and fantastic with our kids. Food was hot and delicious. We brought our dog and they have cute little cooling doggy beds. They brought water right away for Pancake (our dog). I had the purple lime on tap, and was juicy and refreshing ona warm summer night. Highly recommend for a family and dog friendly place.

-Waitress was awesome, didn’t catch her name sadly. -New hand breaded tenders were so tender with a perfectly light, crisp batter. Came with two house made sauces. White BBQ just seemed like mayo. Honey mustard was real good, almost exactly like CFA’s HM (darker, bit more mustard zing) -Cheesesteak was good. Beer cheese, cooked onions, good roll. Philly style for sure. Chips were good, not too hard like most places -Didn’t try the pastrami but it looked amazing, uploaded a pic to show. -Definitely will be back.

Really cool atmosphere and vibes. It was my first visit here. There was live music and corn hole. The servers were really nice and helpful. I ordered chicken tenders, which I didn't realize were to share and it was a very large order! I got the Nashville dipping sauce, I expected it to be hotter but it was still delicious. My husband got smoked wings at the recommendation of a friend, and fries. Both really good! There is a good selection of craft beers and variety of liquor.

Needed to get out of the heat, walked in, and greeted right away and seated. Service from Kathy was awesome. She went above and beyond what is needed from a waitress. Kids friendly, have to recommend the fried pickles as an appetizer as the whole family loved them. Wife and son had the classic cheeseburger and fries, and both said it was delicious. I had the island tacos. Taste was amazing. Tried a couple of different beers between me, and the wife wasn't disappointed with any. Would definitely recommend trying is in the area.

My favorite brewery on Earth...but unfortunately, living in NoVA, I do not live close to either the NY mother ship or satellite location in Pittsburgh. That all changed this week with a quick stop in the latter town, and I got to try my fave ST beers ON DRAFT, finally! They were awesome as always, but I wasn't prepared for how good the food was...don't miss the brisket tacos! Service is impeccable, too, and our incredible server Katey was supremely helpful and friendly! Please make time to visit ST Brewery in Pittsburgh...definitely worth your while!
