An excellent 'American' diner. Great spot for breakfast. Super-friendly staff & owner!

We went for lunch and the soup of the day was very good which it usually is and the BLT was good as well but not the best I've ever had but the quantity was very feeling. Service is super nice and willing to give some good input on the menu. It is very homey inside and it makes you feel link your going to grandmas for lunch. read more

Cute place Great food Got the Mediterranean scramble bowl special Will return when in the area again read more

Pittsburgh friendly great value good food, everybody older than me for a change felt great

This place not only serves a delicious meal, but a little joy and comfort in a home like atmosphere. If you're lucky, you might even get to meet the restaurant's namesake lovingly cooking away in the kitchen. If you're fortunate enough to stop in Carnegie, then your day will be made. Whether you're going with a group or alone, you'll feel right at home. The regulars add a little extra spark too. They're a community that helps to make you feel welcomed and at home too. To put it simply- it's good home cooking with character. (Open on Sunday's too.) read more

If you want breakfast and or lunch this is your old fashioned place. The food is amazing as is the service but definitely no frills. Hidden in the heart of Carnegie and brings pleasant surprises to your taste buds. read more

If you are looking for a small time family place for a traditional breakfast, this is the place. I was happy with my bacon & eggs and atmosphere. But I don't mind duct tape on bar stools. Good folks and basic food. I will be back when I am in Pittsburgh. Place was filled with local read more

What a dump! Service was super slow and food was terrible. I swear they only make 1 order at a time, no multitasking here folks. When we finally got our food, mine was wrong. This might be okay for the locals to hang out, which is what it mostly seemed like. I would highly recommend moving on to a better place if considering this joint. Ugh read more

Really great dining experience. Quality takes time. Spinach feta omelet generously filled with feta. Banana walnut pancakes yummy huge serving took half home. read more

This is a great little place with great food at very reasonable prices. I had a grilled chicken sandwich and a bowl of vegetable beef soup and both were outstanding. My wife had the cheese steak hoagie and fries which she also found delicious. This was our first time there and we will definitely be back. read more

Love barb, she's hilarious. Her food is cheap but good ! Homemade everything , I love this place :) if in Carnegie ,definitely stop there and enjoy home cooked food. The place has a ton of personality, be sure to try the soups and desserts ! Those are personally my favorites ! Enjoy! read more

Wow. It takes a LOT for me to give 1 star, especially to a small, mom & Pop place. Bottom line: GO ELSEWHERE. I ordered a mushroom omet, halfway through, I put on my readers and discovered what I kept tasting and feeling was hair. And it clearly wasn't mine, or the server's. I showed this to the server and asked her for a slice of pumpkin cheesecake which was on their specials board. She said they didn't have any. I said just charge me for half an omelet and coffee.The manager did so grudgingly. Also, there's a $5 minimum for a charge/debit card. I paid $5 for half a sub-par omelet, and a cup of coffee. I won't return;I recommend that you go elsewhere. Anywhere else., that doesn't serve hair on food, and flat, not fluffy, omelets. read more

I have never been here, but I have been touched by their kindness and generosity. I have friends in Pittsburg, PA that are home bound. They made a call to the restaurant to order their anniversary meal. Not only did Barb's deliver their meal, but took out much needed supplies to my friends. I am overwhelmed with gratitude at their gift of kindness, both of their time and meals! I cannot wait to come up and actually met these lovely people. Doanna Daniel, Texas read more

Barb's Country Junction gets a 5 star rating for me because it is truly everything that a Pittsburgh restaurant should be. In addition to being the apple of my nostalgia's eye, it is also the constant thought of my tummy when I'm hungry on the weekends. Barb's breakfasts cannot be beat, but truly any meal you get there you won't regret. Everything is made to order, with fair portions, and great prices. My recommendation is a breakfast sandwich on a bagel and a coffee. There's nothing better than drinking from a cup that could have come from your grandma's kitchen. I know that Gab N Eat is nearby, and Barb's can be a little weird get to with the strange traffic pattern but this really is a gem of Carnegie that you've gotta try! read more

My first time going to Barb's Country Junction and I really wanted to like this place, I really did...however, I didn't. The food was decent, some was above average and some below but it was overall decent. I got pancakes, bacon and eggs. The pancakes were really good and fluffy, the home fries were simply okay and the eggs were not cooked well. My son had a burger and it was good. The coffee at this place was brewed to perfection which a appreciate. I would give the food 3/5. The service was subpar for sure. While our waitress was a really nice girl, she wasn't on top of anything at all. Had to ask for coffee refills, had to ask for silverware, for napkins...etc. She got the order messed up and so on. I give the service 2/5. The inside of the place had some country charm as you'd expect but want particularly cleanly. It also had a leaky roof in several places which had buckets collecting the water. A customer even tripped over the buckets and fell. I give the interior 2/5. The prices were decent. I fed my whole family breakfast (3 of us) for $23. I give the prices 3/5. So in summary, you can get okay food here for a rather cheap price but it is not a great place to dine in by any means. There are better diners in the area that I will patronize in the future rather than Barb's. read more

There is nothing here that stands out. The best you get is mediocre, and with so many good places around, I have given up on them. How hard is it to buy good bread or other foods, instead of buying the cheapest stuff you can buy? read more

This is a great place to eat and everyone is so friendly. I live right down the street from here but unfortunately, I have only gone a once. Trust me, I will go here more often. The food is great, prices are low, and the staff are friendly. My cousin and I wanted a place to eat and catch up and this was perfect place. I will go here more often. read more

Never very busy. Food is great but sometimes takes a bit longer than other places, worth the wait though!

We go to Barb's every weekend and have for the past 3 years. The food is great, the prices are better, and the coffee is the best! Try the barb wire omlette or the chocolate chip pancakes! read more

Been going to Barb's every Saturday for years now. Prices are low, coffee's great, portions are good, and the Barbwire omelet's a treat. It can sometimes take a bit to get your order if the place is busy, but that's because Barb seems to always be there doing the cooking herself, and she makes sure it's done right. It's never bothered me, personally. I just relax and enjoy the bright and open atmosphere, maybe read a little while I sip that damned good coffee. My only complaint is that there were a few times where I ran her out of sweet n' low for the coffee, but even then, she help scour the place for a few pink packets for my Nth cup of coffee that day. I recommend a Barbwire omelet with wheat toast, coffee, and a water. Or a number one. Both are great. read more

My husband and I tried this place for the first time today. It was easy to find and no problems with parking. It's "Seat Yourself", but there were no signs stating this, so we stood there looking like fools for a minute. It took awhile for the waitress to acknowledge us and I'm guessing that this was Barb. She apologized and said that one of her workers called off today. No big deal and her apology was appreciated. She came back with our drinks, dropped them off, and left again. We didn't see her for another 20 minutes. Ultimately, we were there for 30 minutes before she took our order. This was aggravating to me. I don't mind waiting for my food if I know it's going to be awesome and they're making it with love, but come on now. We ordered the hot pepper omelette/home fries/ toast and chocolate chip pancakes/sausage. The food was alright, really nothing special. A new waitress ended up taking care of us and she was much more attentive. We may or may not go back. read more

Great little place. Treats you like a local.Eaten here 3 times a week for a month. Same overtime. Barb is always here.

If you want a good old fashioned american breakfast, here's the place to go. You know when you wake up on saturday and sunday and want someone to cook you breakfast and you can only think of two places and one of them is Pamela's with their long lines and the other is Deluca's in the strip with longer lines and no parking? Well, Barb's is the place you should be thinking of. The food is just simple, traditional food. I've only ever had breakfast there but it was quite good. read more
