Foggy Goggle

Went here this past Saterday night with some friends to drink /​have fun.
Foggle Goggle is big, it has 3 bars so there is never a long wait for drinks.
It’s a ski resort bar so of course it isn’t going to be the cheapest around, but you can get a 16oz can of beer for $ 4, Mixed drinks for $ 5.
They have a DJ at night and the crowd was fun.

There is no hurry to be waited on nor is there any interest to keep patrons in the bar. When the ski lift shuts down at 9pm, no matter how many customers are in the bar, the bartenders give last call and begin to push people out. Food seems to be frozen and heated up. Eek!

On a busy weekend don’t expect your food to take less than 45 minutes to be ready. The food is pretty darn decent but if you want to get back on the slopes, it is not at all timely. Too many patrons for far too few servers.
Update: because my meal took so long and wasn’t complete when I got it (and took 10 minutes to get the missing portion) they didn’t charge me. I appreciate that kind of service. Good work. Goggle Defogger is AMAZING.

Went with a large group of friends and our experience was underwhelming.
It took awhile for our food to arrive. And when it did, it arrived inconsistently. Some people had their meals 10 minutes or more before the last people to receive theirs. The only consistency was that everyone’s food was slightly cold or lukewarm. I got the Groomer and the bun was so old and crunchy, it might as well have been a cracker. The meat was OK, but — again — it wasn’t hot. My fries were cold and I had to ask the waitress for some fresh ones.
Many people in my group chose not to finish their meals. It wasn’t terrible, but it wasn’t good by any measure. And for the price, it was nowhere near worth it. The only positive was the service. Our waitress was kind, friendly, and helpful.
Unfortunately for her and us, the entire meal was brought down by the incompetencies of the kitchen. A real shame since I was looking forward to enjoying it.

I love this place! Food is great and they have a bar! What more do you need? Can’t recall what I had but I’ve been there several times and always been happy. :)

It was good, a couple of friends wanted to go ski and do ice stuff, me and my African self will go find a spot and go eat and drink. I walked around and found this place located in the Seven Springs ski resort, the wings were good and the drinks were decent and strong. prices were a little up there, but its a captured audience one has no choice. Good place, albeit crowded i presume this time of year.

This is more of a review for the «Foggy Brews» that recently opened adjacent to the Foggy Goggle. Foggy Brews is attempting to say they are a craft beer bar. DON’T be fooled. The beer is mostly Goose Island, Full Sail and Red Hook — all are owned by A-​B (Budweiser). It is a disgrace to the area. They have a choice to carry Rivertowne (they have two of their beers only), Full Pint, Helltown, East End –all great local beers– and they have all Bud products.

It took over an hour to get our food 20+ minutes for a bar drink and the kids glasses were empty for 15+ minutes. What’s worse is the manager was «too busy to talk with us». The server sections are simply too big preventing them from providing the best service available. And at the premium prices… Every experience at a resort should be top notch. Unfortunately, that is not the case here. Also, it’s worth noting that foggy «brews» is highly lacking selection of craft brews. If you’re a mainstream bear drinker… You’ll probably be content. I don’t consider Sam Adams and goose Island worthy of «brews». That said, the bison burger was delicious.

We had a great time, good atmosphere, good music from a dj. Bartender was super nice (even though we are ravens fans). Nachos were HUGE and tasty. We also ordered a turkey sandwich on a pretzel bun which wasn’t anything fancy. Portions were big and beer selection was vast. Nice, clean joint.

5 stars for atmosphere. 3 stars for food. 4 stars for portion sizes.
1 star for beer. Served in 8 ounce cups. I wouldn’t have ordered a beer on principle alone.
The place is huge. I went on a Sunday night, and there was an awesome DJ inside, and another one outside. The music was good. Everyone was friendly. And they have a fireplace.

The Foggy Goggle was… ok. I may not have had such high expectations if they didn’t claim to be the «Best Ski Bar on the East Coast!». but they did. Which leads me to wonder… if they are, infact, the best ski bar on the east coast, what exact;y does that say about the rest of them… yikes. Anyway, after a long day of snowboarding, we decided to grab a bite and drink or 2 before heading home, and it was a quick and convenient stop. The food wasn’t bad, but the menu is so small, that when I asked our server what she recommended, she literally named all 10 or so items on the menu. the bar ONLY offers beer and different varieties of bloody mary’s, so if you’re not a vodka or beer drinker, I guess you’re out of luck (this is when ordering from a table… not sure if there are more options if you’re actually sitting AT the bar). The service was decent– not great, but not horrible (I asked if we could get the penguins game on the tv near us, and our server told me «yeah you can just go change it»…what?).
I will say, the view is great. You have an awesome view of the slopes from almost anywhere you sit, so that’s a plus.
All in all, we were satisfied and full when we left, and not totally bummed about anything. we did expect a little more from the seemingly self proclaimed Best Ski Bar on the East Coast (I just can’t get over that, if you didn’t notice), but it wasn’t a total let down.

Staying at Seven Springs for the weekend, I patronized the Foggy Goggle FAR too often, both for lunch and at night. It’s about what you’d expect. A fine bar with normal prices and standard bar food.
For lunch, the Foggy Goggle has a nice atmosphere with large wooden tables and plenty of TVs. The service was also shockingly good, friendly and VERY fast. Food-​wise, the sandwiches are all very mediocre. They come out lightning fast, since they are all pre-​cooked and re-​heated. I had the turkey sandwich («The Foggy Goggle») and the grilled chicken. Both were very edible, but not much more.
The portions are very large. I have never seen more french fries with one sandwich ever in my life, so splitting an app and a sandwich may be a good idea. The wings were good (and very saucy), and the nachos didn’t seem particularly gourmet, but they were GIANT. The «full-​size» order is served on a pizza tray.
As a bar, the Foggy Goggle has a diverse and Pittsburgh-​y crowd. Drinks are priced about what you’d expect. Since the room is giant, there’s plenty of space to grab a table or check out the sketchy dance floor in the center.
Last call is before 1 AM, which is kinda lame, but it works out well if you want to go to bed anyways after a long day of skiing but don’t want to admit it to your friends…

As long as you skip the food the Foggy Goggle is a pretty awesome bar in the winter. It’s part of the Seven Springs Resort but don’t worry parking is free and you don’t have to be skiing or anything, just come on in. The bar is lined with windows overlooking the slopes and the interior is all wooden and rustic feeling yet it’s clean and modern, it’s really beautiful. You can grab a table, high top, grab a seat at the bar, or even a table outside on the deck. Beers aren’t dirt cheap but they’re not a rip off either. I could have used a proper pint glass instead of the plastic cup but other than that it was nice and cold and fresh.
5 stars for the atmosphere, 3.5 stars as a bar, 2 stars for the food.

The Wagner Burger — precooked, rubbery, «beef?» patty. Actually severely disappointing. I can’t think of a worse burger that I’ve tried to eat. Ever. The waitress was friendly and service was quick. Too quick, actually. It’s bad news when your burger comes out in less time than it would take to microwave it. I can’t stress how much I recommend you avoid this burger. You have been warned.
I’m told that by boarding-buddy’s meal was not so bad.

My goggles were foggy.
The place was very busy and had a great view of all the skiers are their descent. I kind of felt like I was in the «Hot Dog» movie ;-P
A few things set this place apart from other establishments. The service was really good. We had almost zero wait time even though the place was very busy.
They have a Bloody Mary bar… They serve a base bloody mary from the bar. They have all the seasoning, hot sauces, pickles, celery, olives, etc… where you can load up your drink. I had fun making my «franken-​mary» drinks!
It was a Saturday night and the music was very good — Country /​Southern Rock was their theme. The band was very good and the place had a great vibe.
Overall:
Price: Very reasonable — please note beersand drinks are served in plastic cups. (Draft Beers).
Service: Awesome — Our waitress was on her game.
Atmosphere: Lodge setting, large bar, live music, and lots of happy people.
If you are looking to do something fun for a weekend — you should check out Seven Springs. It was fun!
