It is by reservation only, which is done online and you pay online ahead of time as well, which makes for enjoyable experience the day of, not worrying about the check, tip, etc. You get unlimited tea, and there are hot and iced varieties. I started with the mango passion fruit green tea and then finished the experience with the iced raspberry hibiscus -- you can switch it up as much as you want. The savories consisted of a red pepper quiche, spinach artichoke cups, cucumber Boursin sandwiches and almond chicken salad croissants. The standard tea includes one scone per person and I highly recommend ordering extra -- they're phenomenal and are served with strawberry jam and clotted cream. Our desserts were a raspberry lemon pound cake, chocolate and vanilla macarons and a vanilla custard in a pie crust cup with a fresh raspberry on top. Everything was amazing and they rotate menus seasonally. Children are permitted but it's the same menu and price for them, just FYI. I'll definitely return and recommend to others for special occasions or no occasion at all.

The building is well kept, the staff are kind, and the food is absolutely delicious. If you plan to dine here, be sure to make a reservation on their website! When you are seated, you get to choose from a list of hot, cold, caffeinated and non-caffeinated tea. Your waitress will bring your table milk, sugar, and your own little tea pot with hot water that is the perfect size for two cups of tea. The set menu includes savory and sweet items. The first course items on the bottom plate are a cucumber sandwich, quiche, pesto artichoke pastry, and a chicken salad croissant with an almond crust. The middle layer is a plain scone which is paired with strawberry jam and a whipped cream. The top plate holds the dessert portion. This included a sweet pastry, chocolate mousse cup, and orange cranberry bread. The bread flavor changes throughout the year. The Johnston House also hosts events like bridal showers and baby showers. This is a venue where alcohol is not permitted, so it is perfect for a relaxed, intimate event. I can not wait to be back for my sisters baby shower in a couple months!

She worked with us to reschedule our 2020 wedding to 2021 and helped us figure out all the steps through planning and implementing our ceremony and reception. She even ran out for more wine when our guests blazed through our original stock! Location wise, the WBU is very close to the city, so we were able to get convenient hotel blocks at North Shore hotels that made it easy for our out of town guests to see Pittsburgh. Our party hard guests had an easy time getting Ubers to / from the venue because of how close it was to downtown. There is plenty of parking as well, including parking close to ADA ramps. Natasha's bar tending staff were also friendly and kept the good vibes going all night. Their help with tear down and clean up made the end of the night easy and stress free. The venue itself was perfect for our vintage inspired wedding. The ballroom has a classic Americana vibe and an awesome bar. The private green room for getting ready was so useful. Our guests loved how unique the ballroom was - and they loved being able to try drinks from the brewery downstairs as well. The venue has so much authentic Pittsburgh charm. We really wanted a venue with a personality that would shine and be part of the decor itself, and the WBU did exactly that.

It's a missed opportunity to not have a professional interior decorator come in there and pick some finishes that can't be found in Home Depot. It was definitely not selected by a professional (sorry, I'm in the industry and these things stand out). This place has such potential because the windows and light of this venue can't be beat. The landscaping and area outside are just stunning. There were a few issues I had with this place, which is why I went elsewhere. Adam was very secretive about the food vendors. My cousin is a professional event planner who also spoke with Adam (in her own course of doing business) and said the pitch Greystone Fields gives is not the norm. I didn't know it was odd until afterwards. Potential caterers are not supposed to be a secret. It was pitched like this was all inclusive, but it's no different than any other place with a competent event coordinator. They coordinate the vendors. I'm glad we kept looking. I think someone could have a perfectly nice, traditional wedding reception here and save themselves a lot of aggravation in planning.

From there, you enter the restaurant and are greeted by the hostess. There seemed to be several different dining areas--an upstairs area, a room off to the side, and another dining room down a few steps. The lower dining room is also ADA accessible. I don't drink alcohol, so I was happy to see that they had a few mocktail options. We started with the heirloom tomato salad and OMG. This was genuinely one of the best things I've ever tasted. The peaches, basil sorbet, tomatoes, and that bite of vinegar were SO complementary. Every bite had something going on. I ate the entire thing myself and didn't even offer any to my husband, which probably says more than anything else I could write about it. We also tried the mushrooms, smoked olives, and grilled peaches. My husband really enjoyed the mushrooms and peaches. I was more indifferent toward those dishes--they were perfectly fine, but the tomato salad was such a standout that nothing else we had to start came close for me. For my entrée, I ordered the smoked cod rigatoni. This one unfortunately wasn't my favorite. It was fine, but there was an oddly gamey flavor to it that I couldn't quite put my finger on. I love smoked flavors, so I don't think it was simply the smokiness--there was just something about the flavor that didn't work for me. My husband ordered the halibut and absolutely loved it. For dessert, we shared the banana PB&J, and my husband also ordered an affogato. Interestingly, they used chocolate syrup in the affogato, which he had never had before, so that was a fun and unexpected twist. Overall, Hyeholde is absolutely worth experiencing at least once. The setting is beautiful and unlike almost anywhere else in Pittsburgh, the service and atmosphere make dinner feel like an occasion, and that heirloom tomato salad alone is something I'll be thinking about for a long time. Not every dish was a home run for me, but the ones that were really stood out.
