Piper's Pub

Pittsburgh's original soccer bar since 1999, Piper's Pub is where the city's soccer culture took root.

Home to Pittsburgh Spurs, the official Tottenham Hotspur supporters club. After closing during COVID in 2021, Piper's reopened for limited weekend service with a bare-bones brunch of boxtys, scotch eggs, and sausage rolls alongside local brewery cans.

The Pitch on Butler

Born from Piper's Pub DNA, The Pitch on Butler opened on Boxing Day 2023 when Piper's veteran Bryan Muha and partner Mercedes Farrell transformed the former No Names Pub into Lawrenceville's dedicated soccer bar. A 40-tap system pours local and imported craft beers alongside a full kitchen serving smashburgers. The outdoor patio with a big screen is the summer sweet spot for afternoon matches, while the spacious indoor bar with multiple TVs handles the packed Saturday morning EPL slate. Live entertainment on the small stage rounds out evenings.
