Also fondly known as The Squirrel Cage by its regulars.

This storied establishment is home to Pittsburgh's oldest known still-running, still-licensed elevator. Which is to say "dumb-waiter." That aside this serves as a watering hole for a diverse crowd with a high concentration of academic types.

Tuesdays are "Game Nights" when people play board games. They have a large, but not necessarily impressively so, selection of micro and import bottled beers. Their juke box is home to many classic rock gems.
