Winghart’s Burger & Whiskey Bar

Friendly service and pleasant atmosphere, considering its located in the mall. Food taste was okay, but portions were disappointing. Just a burger, not that big. Don’t like it when I order a full meal but leave hungry.

Probably my biggest issue with this place is that it sports a fancy name, but it’s a really a dive bar. That being said, it has everything that you look for in a dive bar: inexpensive, tasty, greasy food (french fries… on a salad!) and a great, inexpensive beer selection. If I find myself in the unfortunate situation of being in Monroeville again, I’ll be back.

We tried Wingharts for the first time a couple of days ago and loved it! This was the first time Ive been to any Wingharts location, and I’ll definitely be going back. I got the Dockworker Burger and my husband got the Shipwreck burger (at the suggestion of the Bartender) and we both loved them! Ive said in one of my previous reviews that I’m not much of a burger fan, which is still true, but when you try a place thats known for their burgers, I feel like you have to at least try one once. and I was happy I did! In my opinion, this place takes priority over Primanti’s and Sharp Edge. yes I said it. The fries are great and I LOVE that everything is fresh and made in house. seriously an A+ move in my book.
Our Bartender, Rick, was awesome. He gave us some honest suggestions when we inquired about menu items, and he clearly knew his stuff. He was super friendly and gave us awesome service. When we first came in and sat down, he said to us «I’ve never seen you guys here before, are you new to the area?». SERIOUSLY LOVED THAT. We’ll definitely be going back to sit at the bar, if for no other reason than because this guy was on point, and we loved it.
The only thing that was disappointing to me was that there were no signature whiskey drinks or specials. They advertise that they’re a Burger and Whiskey Bar, but there’s absolutely nothing that draws me in to order any kind of whiskey drink. I asked if they have any specialty drinks, and all of them were Vodka based drinks. in a whiskey bar? Didn’t like that, but it didn’t bother me enough to give them less than 5 stars and to keep me from going back. Although I’d love to see some whiskey specials next time I’m there!

Bartender wasn’t very friendly. Met up with coworkers for some drinks after work and the place was dead. Acted like we were bothering him by ordering drinks. After ordering a 2^nd round, he spilled a full beer on myself and another. Offered a quick apology and tossed a rag for us to wipe down then forgot about it. Could have cared less. The 3 start rating is about right considering the only thing good was the food. Unimpressive amount off available beers to drink and pricey. Highly unlikely we will frequent this establishment again.

So we wet to this winghart’s after trying the one in Greensburg, It is night an day. The one in Greensurg was terrible. The one in Monroeville was 100 times better. The staff is fantastic. They are friendly, courteous and will do anything they can to make your visit a pleasant one. We had a few of the new drinks including the pink panther and the blue popsicle and they were yummy and a fair price. Our food was good yet a bit salty. It’s a nice place to relax with friends shoot some pool or darts and have a few drinks after diner. It would be neat to have some more adult type games like corn hole or other things such as that. We will defiantly make the 30 min drive from Greensburg just to go to this one. I like the low lighting, but the «paintings» on the walls are quite interesting. I think a little better décor could go a long way.

This site doesn’t compare with quality, ambiance or service with the Market Square and Carson Street locations. Don’t waste your time at this one.

Had a great experience dining here. Only giving 4 stars because of the décor was very lacking. The most important part the food. My burger was excellent! Cooked perfectly medium rare. I had the Market Square. The bacon was crisp, the mushrooms were cooked but not soggy. The cheese was great, but mot enough of it. Was a little disappointed that fries cost extra. We did get fries with beer cheese on them. The fries are hand cut and taste great. The beer cheese was not great. Definitely lacking the Midwestern flare I am used to.

As I look over the reviews from this business I can’t believe what I see. I’ve been here multiple times, and always had a good experience. Monroeville is SUCH better then the Greensburg location. The staff, to me is way better. The food we need to remember, is bar food. This isn’t a grand resultant. It’s a bar. So the food, from that standpoint, is delicious. Their seasoned fries are really good and you get A TON of them. Their wings are good and I’ve had a couple chicken sandwiches before that were also good. But you have to try the funnel cake for desert!!! So yummy! Id come just for desert! Their happy house is super good too, try that out first to see if this place is for you.

The first time I came here was on my girlfriends 21^st birthday and I have been there a couple times since. The beer selection is pretty good and the burgers are good too. The wings are just okay although they have some very interesting sauces you won’t find at most places.
The building feels a little too big but the bar itself is a good size. I’m not sure what this was before Wingharts but the artwork feels out of place but maybe that’s the intention.
A little pricey and they don’t have Pitchers makes this place just mediocre but if you want a Late Night bar that doesn’t have smoking or are looking for a drink after visiting the attached mall this isn’t a bad option. Nothing special and everyone hates that feeling you get when you pay too much for what you think you received.

I’ve been to Wingharts multiple times. As a Whiskey girl, I love their various selection and the Bartenders are usually fantastic; great personality, knowledgeable, and extremely service oriented. The food is well priced and for being fresh made usually comes out quickly and tastes fantastic.
I went yesterday and was absolutely disappointed. I ordered beer cheese and bacon fries. The fries came out lukewarm and the beer cheese was congealed and cold. My Grandpa Style Pierogies were extremely salty! I got through one before I couldn’t eat anymore.
Considering how good the food usually is, I was very disappointed. I do plan on returning as I hope this was a one-​time bad experience.

Chicken dip was great… wings tasted very odd like their funnel cakes. The hostess was AMAZING! Our server was fair, and left us hanging at the end. Never addressed our concern about the odd tasting wings.

Wow, this place is terrible! The food is not even comparable to the original location, the place just kinda feels like they succeeded with south side and became cocky. Over priced and simply bad food.
I ordered what I always get in south side, which is the «Denny bleu burger» (I think that’s it’s name), med rare and paid the upcharge of $ 2 for bacon.
It came out dry as hell and quite possibly well done. The «bacon» that was a $ 2 up charge was bacon bits and the smallest amount you could ever imagine.
I asked the waiter if there was bacon on it and he argued with me that there was and there was a lot. I have no problem paying $ 2 for bacon, but come on now, put it on it.
Next thing that happened was the obnoxiously dressed manager arguing with me about the bacon.
Later I received more bacon bits and the manager was so proud to tell me he took 15% off my bill, which totaled $ 1.80. Just laughable.
The décor is hideous, it looks like an old family restaurant like the ground round with «cool”/“edgy» art all over. Makes no sense.
Wingharts, get your shit together.

I was not overly impressed. I really wanted to like it. Overpriced. Ten bucks for an average tasting burger, and it doesnt even come with fries.

I have been to this place three times now and I have to say that the burgers are fantastic! Quite frankly, the reason for the three star rating is because of the price.
I just went here two days ago for lunch and ordered a hamburger with two toppings, french fries and a Diet Coke and the price came to $ 17.50. With tip I’m at $ 21. Pretty expensive for a lunch don’t you think? The moral of the story is Monroeville Is a big town with lots of places to eat. I’m most likely going to pick somewhere else from now on.

What a place. Came in slightly before 10. Asked if I could order food. Server says yes. I sit down, bartender brings me a placemat and says «hurry up and order». I say I need a menu. He says «we are keeping the kitchen open for you, so hurry up». Them he walks away. Still no menu. I’ll never, ever come here again. Too many nice people in the world for me to tolerate jerks like this.

Average ho-​hum.
Setting is nice enough. Menu selections are pretty blah. I actually thought the menus set on our table were placemats instead of menus. My bad. Looked over both sides and I just wasn’t entirely in the mood for the offerings. Yeah, I know it has «burger» in the name of the restaurant but even those just weren’t jumpin’ off the menu at me. So, basically the offerings are burgers, wings, pizza, a few soups, and salads. It’s just that maybe a few enticing pictures of said items would have gotten me in the mood.
I ended up ordering some wings. What is there to say about wings, really?
I would have ordered a salad to go with it but they were too expensive (and, it turns out, really big). So I ordered the tatonka chicken dip which is served warm with pita bread. It was the best part of the meal.

I’ve visited the Original Winghart’s location in Market Square numerous times and consider Winghart’s to being the finest burgers in the ‘Burgh, with Burgatory being a close second,
After my first visit to Monroeville location — I’m guessing they’ve ironed out some of the issues that spawned negative reviews soon after opening, as my experience was everything I expected to be.
Beautiful day, so I ate outside. Had Colin’s Orangutan and the Shipwreck Burger. Burger came out cooked medium-​rare as requested. Both lettuce wrapped for me.
Service from both the hostess and my server Krishna (sp?) was attentive, genuine, and actually possessed some personality. That being said, I’m not high-​maintenance like most seem to be when eating out. Bring my food, keep my glass full, and perhaps smile occasionally.
As far the people complaining about kid’s menus etc…
Um…it’s called Winghart’s Burger and WHISKEY bar — does this sound like a place FOR kids?
Newsflash to people with kids — the world does not need to conform to your every beck and call. Some people actually want to go somewhere and enjoy a meal without your screaming, unsupervised, and whiny spawn running around causing mayhem.
What does being located at a mall have to do with families and/​or kids anyway?
Is Victoria Secret for kids? Spencers? R-​rated movies at the theater?
If you want a kid’s menu, go to Applebees.
Reminds me of the people asking for Vegan/​Veg. options at MEAT & Potatoes…
Ok. Rant over.
Looking forward to my next visit.

After a lack luster first time at this location, I decided to give this place another chance and had a great experience. My group of 5 was seated promptly during lunch time on Sunday and the service was impeccable from top to bottom. Our server was extremely prompt, knowledgeable, and friendly without being fake. She was extremely attentive to not only our table, but her entire section which was full. This was way different than the first time I was here when there were about 3 tables full in the place and none of the waitstaff seemed concerned about waiting on them.
We had all sorts of apps – Garbage fries, Tatonka Chicken Dip, chili, fries and beer cheese and they were all received well. Everyone was in love with the pita that went with the chicken dip.
We also had a variety of burgers and sandwiches (Shipwreck Burger, Matolla Burger, some burger with Jame’O sauce, and a Pittsburgh cheesesteak). All of the burgers came out great, but we had to send the sandwich back because it was dried out. After a quick swap, it was made fresh and my nephew chowed down graciously.
I’ll be back to get the Shipwreck again for sure!

I was excited to go here after the post about them having really good wings and indeed they were pretty good. The environment was no different than the place before which was a let down. Not much to stare at, everything was mostly green and black. I did however enjoy the music. They must have had Ray Charles on Pandora cause he was all I heard that night, him and a little Amy Winehouse. RIP.
When we entered there were very few people seated. Only 3 at the bar and maybe 4 tables. That’s pretty bad considering this place can hold about 200 on a busy night. She took our drink orders quickly and then we decided on wings. I chose the aioli truffle and my babe chose the garlic and balsamic. After 10 minutes she said our wings would be out shortly and we ordered our main dish. Their pizza prices weren’t bad so we decided on the Trip to Greece pizza. It has artichoke spread, kalamata olives, tomatoes and artichokes.
After another 10 minutes of waiting our wings finally came out. They were hot so I was glad to know they hadn’t been sitting under the heat lamp. Mine were saucy and delicious but i kind of lost interest in them after the 3^rd wing. I guess that sauce is only good if it’s eaten sparingly. My hubby liked his wings too but by the time they reached the table the sauce they drizzled on them had dried up on the wing. he had to request more sauce which was rather spicy and tasted neither like balsamic or garlic to me but he’s not picky when it comes to food and flavor.
it took our pizza a whole 20 minutes to come out after we finished the wings. Our waitress said someone had ordered 10 pizzas before we made our order. Really? On a Wednesday night? Funny that the table across from us received there pizza before us even though we ordered ours way before they did. What a riff! Once our pizza actually arrived it was just ok. The crust was so thin it was like biting into a napkin. Not crispy thin like coal fired pizza but like one that was pulled from the oven too quick.
Even though our waitress was friendly our experience took way too long to enjoy given it was only a Wednesday and no crowd was in the Restaurant. I could only imagine how bad the service would be if i showed up with a party of people. I doubt i’ll return here. If I do, it’ll be for take out only!

I never had a chance to try Winghart’s until now. I was happy to hear that they were coming to fill the former Houlihan’s location. The family and I decided to give them a try this last Friday. The place was pretty dead other the bar. Once inside the hostess greeted us and seated us at a booth.
About ten minutes later our waitress came to take our drink orders. She brought our drinks and disappeared for another ten minutes. Once she return we all ordered. My wife had the Cordon Blanc Sandwich. (Chicken, ham, cheese, spinach and red onions.) Our daughter had the Pepperoni Rolls and I had the Market Square Burger (Bacon, mushrooms, and gruyère cheese covered in honey mustard dressing.) While we were waiting for our food the manager came around and asked everyone how their food was but, didn’t ask us as we didn’t have our food yet. Good thing our food was fine as he never came back around.
My burger was delicious. My wife and daughter enjoyed their food as well. I also ordered the Mother Marys Poutin Fries for us all to share. They were just okay. The gravy on them had a weird taste. Almost like too much gravy master or something. I don’t know.
My two biggest complaints are that there is no kids menu (You are located in a mall and families do go to the mall so add a kids menu damnit!) and the service could be better. They did just open so I will give them another try to get it right.
