Small, cramped dancefloor. Weird, uncomfortable "bully who pretends to be your friend" type vibes from the more active of the two bartenders on staff. At one point in the night he got angry and screamed at a guy who asked for a drink - for interrupting his attempt to hit on one of the other patrons, a woman who looked scared and was clearly not feeling the bartender's untoward expressions of lust. Actual event I went there for wasn't horrible, but was very crowded with limited table/seating real estate leaving attendees to stand around awkwardly. Main advantage is the cheap drinks, but this is very much a South Side bar with all the baggage that entails. Might like it better on another, future visit. read more

Pretty good dive bar. I came in here on a Saturday night. Wasn't too crowded as compared to some of the other places. It definitely has that dicey feel, which is perfectly fine. The bartender was nice and fast. He made some pretty good drinks and answered a few of my out towner questions. The cup o noodles for $4 is pretty funny. Looked like they used to have real food, decal on the window touts cheeseburgers, but now it's just a bar. That's totally fine. It was a nice spot to drink and watch the games. read more

It's a frat bar where for $10 on Monday, a little person named "Manboy" (sidenote: do not google image his name on a work computer, learn from my mistakes) comes down a pole, walks on the bar in a costume, and pours shots down your throat. Nothing in your wildest dreams, could be more messed up than this. They even sell Manboy bobbleheads. Did you notice I called him a "little person"? That's because I'm a sensitive person. The rest of the peeps in here for "midget madness" are not. Hey, I'm only a foot taller and I gots some T Rex arms and the last thing I want to do for employment is shove a nozzle of jager down some screaming frat boys throat and pretend to enjoy that sh**. To be honest, judging by the look on his face I think he might want to go postal and torch the place. I could only tolerate this place for one drink. I'll give them kudos for the impressive drafts on tap, a diverse tequila selection, but I had to run out of there before they got the idea I could be "Womengirl" behind the bar. read more

I only ran into this place to use the bathroom. Had to show my ID before i walked in though. Standard Procedure! i walked in and immediately everyone stared at me like ii didn't belong there. A bunch of folks all sitting at the bar. Most of the seats were taken and it was pretty dark and crummy in their. No decorations only beer signs. i believe they had specials on beer and drinks but from the looks of the place thats all they had to offer. When i walked into the ladies room I was immediately turned off. 1. No lock on the bathroom door 2. Only 1 toilet 3. No door on the stall So let me tell you how this went. I walked into the bathroom and closed the door behind me. I went to lock it after noticing that there was only one toilet in the bathroom. To the left was the sink and paper towels. The only thing separating the toilet from the sink was a measly shower curtain hung by zip ties!! I mean really...zip ties. They couldn't even buy real shower curtain rings. When i tried to slide the curtain shut i had to move it inch by inch because it was too tightly hung. Seeing that there is only one toilet and the few people who saw me go inside the stall, i figured i would have my privacy but of course that didn't happen. 30 seconds into my curtain pulling. Two drunk women stumble in loud and laughing meanwhile leaving the door to the girls room open. Did i mention the bathroom is right next to the bar!! So i had to announce to them i was using the toilet, God forbid they open the curtain!!. They were laughing and taking pictures while i'm praying that they leave soon or just don't pull the curtain back. I've never had such a uncomfortable experience using the bathroom in my life. This is what it must feel like to be a prison inmate. No privacy, no respect and no doors!! read more

My sister, who lives in NYC was in town for the weekend. We had dinner at Ibiza's and did a show at the City Theater. But really, how do you impress someone who lives in the heart of Manhatten? Stop into Casey's during Midget Madness, that's how! read more

Casey's Draft House - Midget Madness - Wine Bars Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

See all

The best bar in Southside in my personal opinion. Want to dance your heart out, there's the upstairs. Want to have a chill time drinking and playing pool, you have the downstairs. The bouncer and bartenders are always so kind and make me want to come back. The drinks aren't overpriced and are made well. I will be a Casey's fan until I die. read more

This place is open, and they don't have kahlua nor cream to make a White Russian. That's expected at a bar like this, but it was still disappointing. More than likely won't go back. Also confused why this place is listed as closed on yelp. Cause it's open now read more

I avoid Casey's on midget nights, but go for the great happy hour. By great happy hour, I mean cheap beer at a dark smoky bar. As an added bonus, the bartender lets you know when happy hour is about to end, so you can get one last beer in at the cheap price. The first 5 times I went here, they were playing Family Guy on all their TVs. This is a dedicated bar. If you're in the mood for a microbrew or import, Casey's also has a surprisingly large selection of drafts. For the thrifty conscious, you can often find an unadvertised special by looking at the hand-printed signs below the taps for the beers that they're cycling out soon. Last time I was there, they had a $3 Great Lakes draft. Overall, go for the specials, but don't expect high-class here. read more

Party like a rock star? Pssshhheesssh! I say party like a little person! -2 stars for the smoking that kills the vibe. Yuck 3 stars for the nice bartenders and the fun environment! read more

My girl dragged me here last night while we were visiting Pittsburgh...At first I was a bit skeptical, but after 5 mins of chit chatting we had a great time...even came back after dinner. Only downfall...stools made me feel drunk/topsy turvy...and we missed Midget night, hahaha Inexpenisve alcohol and great bartenders make the world a much happier place! read more

Great tequila bar Upstairs, just past the midget's Tiny little home. read more

We stopped in here to get out of the cold for a minute. The bartender was very friendly even though he was about to do the shift change. The drink prices were reasonable and the beer was cold. He tried really hard to find the game we requested even though we figured out later it was not available on their subscription. It was a cool bar that will definitely make the list of places to stop again. read more

Hands down, worst service in the city of Pittsburgh. The female bartender was the rudest person I've encountered in this city, and I was shocked at how drunk she was at around 9PM. My friend bought a round of 4 beers, she kept all his change, and when he asked for a portion of it back (still leaving her more than the appropriate $1/drink) she told him to "f&@! Off!". Literally awful. I see that others have already complained about her behavior in their reviews, I can't believe she is still employed. I will never, ever go back. I suppose she is one of the many reasons I rarely visit the South Side. I'll stick to my own neighborhood from now on. #northsideisthebestside read more

Midget Madness. Need I say more?? On Monday and Saturday nights they have a midget that goes up and down the bar pouring shots down your throat. Several costume changes are involved. Its maybe one of the best things I've ever seen. They've got a great beer selection and a few TVs that we found useful for football watching. But really, who can pay attention to a TV when you have a manboy running around?!? read more

My favorite dive Smoky and filthy, avoid if you're on a date read more

On the behest of a business associate, I stopped into Casey's to see "the show". One thing that I'm not used to, is smoking in bars (not a Casey's thing, a Pittsburgh thing). They stopped this in most places on the east coast years ago, and I forgot what it's like to come home smelling like an ash tray. The real reason we came was to see what they call midget madness. Basically a little person gets up on the bar, walking down it and pouring shots into peoples mouths. Wrong on so many levels, but still entertaining. Only stayed for about 45 minutes. Not somewhere I would hang on the regular. read more

on monday's, casey's has a "little person" that sits on a loft above the bar. for $10 you can buy the entire bar a shot... when i say a shot - i mean the little person then slides down a fireman's pole onto the bar, grabs a bottle of pre-mixed shots and runs up and down the bar pouring a shots into everyone's mouths. insensitive? sure. demeaning? of course. so weird you can't help but go once? absolutely. read more

Listen I've been in every bar in the south side be have been drinking down here for years. I can say without a doubt that Casey's has hands down the best TP on Carson read more

What a relief it is to find somewhere with a classic cheeseburger that isnt topped with a bunch of fancy/weird cheeses meats and vegetables. Far too often these days I encounter burgers that are way too "busy" with toppings for their own good. Not at Caseys. They serve a GREAT traditional style cheeseburger. Thinner yet properly sized patties that are juicy on the inside and slightly charred on the outside. American cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles, and onion. Thats the way cheeseburgers are supposed to be cooked. The price is right too. A double cheeseburger and 3 bottles of beer and I got out of there for under 15 bucks (during happy hour). 5 stars for the cheeseburger and 4 for the bar. Highly recommend checking this place out. read more

A frat bar with the novelty of a midget that pours shots. You go in, get your shot from a little person, and leave. This place is only ideal for the quick stop, or once you're already too intoxicated to care. read more

This place is colossally fucked up. I'm almost ashamed to say how much I liked it when I went. But lets be honest here. Good cheap beer and spectacle that doesn't quit. Be sure to check it out on Mardi Gras. Holy eff. pure super-awesome evil. read more

Worst place I've ever been in Pittsburgh, lived here all my life terrible staff and lots of bad attitude here don't waist your Money or time here!!! read more

Only thing going for this bar is the little person that comes out and feeds people shots. Otherwise, typical bar that allows smoking.

Friends took us to Carson St during a visit and this was my favorite. Best bar on the street! Welcoming, reasonable prices, great selection of beer and whiskey! Was too packed and wasn't pretentious, just a cool hole in the wall bar. Came in for a drink and ended up staying most of the night! read more

Great bar on the south side to grab a quick beer. Usually, if i plan on eating at Fatheads, i like to leave my reservation and walk next door to casey's until our table is ready. The beer is always cold and the bartender is always cool. I've never seen the "little person" but i'm told it's awesome. This is a Must Stop. read more

Casey's is a pittsburgh legend. They are famous for midget madness and having incredibly cheap drinks. Always an interesting atmosphere at Casey's. They don't offer food, but they do allow u to order out from the many neighboring restaurants. read more

This place can be hit or miss, depending on the night. When I went in September on a Saturday night it was a miss. Drink specials were not as advertised on their website, and there was no midget. Very disappointing. read more

Very cheap happy hour prices. Last night it was $1.50 domestic bottles. Almost as cheap as getting drunk at home. Very nice bartender. Good time. read more
