My wife and I came to National Public House, nestled in downtown Leechburg on a Saturday night in January. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place has a new/rustic feel if that makes sense. It is homey, but new and clean[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We had a seat in the back by a big fire place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was fast, effective, and friendly. Kenzie did a great job taking care of us. We started out with calamari. It was good, but not much different from other calamari I have had. It came with a mayo based sauce as well as a sweet Thai chili. My wife had the Shroomer, which was a portabella based burger. She really enjoyed it. I had the walleye. It was on a bed of risotto with broccoli and mushrooms. The walleye was blackened. It was a delicious dish. It was listed as "Riverfish" meal on the menu Overall, a fun night with really good food. read more

Every now and then it feels good mingling with the country folk. Took a ride out to Leechburg with the family to check out the national public house. It's 2026. I judge a restaurant based on the amount of exposed brick they have on the inside. This place has tons of it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very nice decor. Very old school yet modern.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The appetizers were fantastic. We got the loaded hush puppies and the lobster crab dip. For the entrées we had pasta, French onion burger, and a chicken sandwich. The pasta and the chicken sandwich were excellent, but the burger was just average. Our server was great and the food came out super quick. Definitely a spot we will return to! read more

First of all the food was delicious, all of it was great, service was was good but seemed a little understaffed. My steak was over cooked but it was Saturday night, I enjoyed the zucchini and mashed .. I will definitely go back . read more

I have been here a few times and it seems as though the plates are hit and miss. The problem is seasoning most of the time. Some times you get food so bland you must use salt and pepper. Burgers are def the go to in places like this. read more

Met my friend during her lunch break and it was a nice experience. The food was good and the people were kind. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lunch is just on the bar side and it was full on a Friday afternoon so plan accordingly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Had the mushroom burger and shared the pretzel.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Nothing better than sitting fireside with a glow at the unique and very cool national public house in the little town of Leechburg.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The hostess was our first warm hello and she was more than happy to take our annual bd pics in the beautiful staircase. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The bar was busy on a Friday night and we enjoyed a beverage.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] From there Erika took over the fun evening with her friendly professional and extra special service for my birthday celebration. She was outstanding making sure we were not rushed and times it perfectly. The calamari appetizer was served hot which we love and was excellent. Two nice sauces with it. I also had a small side salad which was fresh with the homemade ranch dressing. Yummy. My halibut was delicious with fingerling potatoes and zucchini crispy julienne style and light sauce went well with a nice Chardonnay and my guy's filet was perfectly done and was as tender as could be. Leftovers are in the fridge. Cheesecake with berries and a cup of their best coffee topped off the night. Erika was more than willing to take our fireplace pics to capture the warmth. Always my annual bd celebration and highly recommended to all. Parking lot is right beside the pub. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Fine dining with a trendy neighborhood vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Wish it was in our neighborhood but always worth the trip. read more

The food was good, but average. Had the crab sandwich - bland with two very, very small pieces of sun dried tomatoes. It's terrible when you are paying a more than fair price for food and they skimp on the small things. Also the container for the aioli was barely half full for an order of fries. Very sad. The drink pours are seriously skimpy. Service average. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The building is beautiful, the decor is okay, kind of a cold decor and definitely not cozy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Very good experience,waitress Erica was very helpful pleasant and made sure to visit us several times to make sure everything was good. Quality of food was top notch. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The dining room and barroom are nicely decorated and inviting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

The food was just ok...my brother was here awhile back and ordered the same dish today and he said that's it was not nearly as good. My mom said the #1 pasta "had no taste". She had to smother it in Parmesan. My burger was salty and small for $15. The onion rings were . This was my first and last trip to this place. read more

Very much enjoyed a special occasion lunch today! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great atmosphere and service![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Sun of a Peach Salad and Brussels app were delicious and unique. Salmon wrap and chips also a culinary treat! read more

This place is well on their way. I don't know how long it's been here but if it weren't for Yelp and GPS we wouldn't have heard about it and we didn't see a sign outside. The place is so cool looking inside. A wartime history buffs dream. The food was pretty good. Great cauliflower soup! I'd pass on the chips but the big pretzel was a table wide hit. It was maybe not as big as I'd like for 8$ but very tasty and not deep fried. We enjoyed the specials and the chai tea cocktails were really good. Our server was so friendly and very patient with our many questions. The desserts were also delicious. I hope they start doing events. read more

The beer I saw recently through the window was an astoundingly beautiful milky yellow IPA. I did eat here once, and for some reason I wasn't super impressed with the food, but they have gone through some menu changes and I hope to return one day soon. It used to be related to Twisted Thistle. read more

This is an amazing place to eat in Leechburg! This so good I went two days in a row to grab carry out lunch! The grilled chicken sandwich is the best one that I have ever eaten. I ordered it as a carry out and the service was fast and hot! I plan to go again to eat in as the ambiance is wonderful and in a great location with plenty of nearby parking. The burgers are also superb! Do... not... miss...this hidden gem! It's a must stop. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant has plenty of space and would be a great place for a bridal/baby shower or other group gathering.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Food is amazing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The decor is outstanding.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Nice addition to Leechburg. I have cons: Drink pours are very skimpy for the prices! Remember we are in Leechburg, guys. The other con is staffing, not very attentive & they keep disappearing read more

Everything I've had here is really good. I'm a chicken Marsala fanatic and order it every time it's on a menu. This had great flavor. It came with some fried brussel sprouts which I found to be a little too greasy to be the side with this dish. I'd definitely get it again but maybe substitute the Brussels sprouts with something else. The service is always great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I love the building and decor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's a restaurant that I recommend to everyone looking for a good place. read more

This was a highly anticipated dinner due to the high reviews, but unfortunately was a disappointment. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service was very good, ambiance was very nice, but food quality was lacking[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . Salmon portion was small for the price, and was overcooked. Green beans seemed a bit old, as they were late season, and not cleaned well as there were stems on three beans. Mashed potatoes were great. Adding a small side salad was very expensive. With no bread included. Meal was a very poor value. Longhorn Steakhouse a much better option. read more

My wife and I have wanted to try this local establishment. We went there when it was the Twisted Thistle and we enjoyed the experience. So we went to NPH with a great hope for a nice experience at a new place. Overall, it was.....just....ok. As far as the ambiance, it's still a lovely, cozy, warm place with lots of dark wood tones and tin ceilings. It's inviting to be sure. We were greeted warmly and our server was very nice. We ordered drinks, cab sav for Lisa and a Manhattan for me. Both arrived in good time and we both enjoyed them. Our appetizer was the ahi-tuna nachos. Well crafted with great tasing aioli and nicely fried wontons...a tad light with the amount of tuna, but it was also prepared well. For dinner, Lisa ordered a salad with salmon. Not a side salad, mind you...a 'dinner' salad. Sadly, it was portioned as a side salad. And the vinaigrette was not good at all. Seemed to have corn or tapioca starch added since it was lumpy and not at all appetizing. The greens were average and the salmon was well prepared. So if you're going to offer a 'not' side salad with salmon at that price and on the small size, you really have to knock that out of the park....but it was below average. I ordered the Blackened mahi with fries. Because of some problem in the kitchen, it came out about 15 minutes after my wife got her dinner. It was served on a metal tray and not a plate. No problem. How was the taste? The flavors of the sandwich were well crafted and I give a thumbs up for the combo of great flavors and textures. The mahi was seasoned well. The baguette was not the bread choice I would have made. It was a well made roll, but a bit too chewy for that type of sandwich. And the bread was about 25% larger than the mahi inside. The fries were disappointing. Not at all crispy and a bit too dark for me. We did not order dessert. 2 additional notes....our table wobbled badly and we both wished for more non-meat options on the menu...but these are not at all dealbreakers. So we're glad we went and wish them well. We could see coming again for drinks and that wonderful ahi tuna nacho (or maybe other appetizers) but probably not for dinner. read more

Filet is absolutely amazing! Would highly recommend. They cooked it perfectly and it was seasoned very well. Service was very kind and tentative. [[HIGHLIGHT]]And the building is clean kept and aesthetic[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

We went on a busy Friday night. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was crowded with holiday folks and very loud.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was good. The classic pub burger and beet salad were delicious! The wedge salad was tasty but way too large and challenging to eat due to it's enormous size so it is definitely shareable. We may go back but probably not for dinner on the weekend. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's just too hard to have a conversation with the noise level.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

This place is somewhat far from the Pittsburgh area but is a nice hidden jem. The inside ambience reminds me of New England bars and has a Cheers kind of vibe with a fireplace. The drinks were great and the food was amazing! Everything on the menu seemed delicious and everyone in the group enjoyed their meal. The pork belly was very crispy on the outside and juicy in the inside; I'd recommend it! read more

My wife and I went to celebrate our anniversary, having read some good reviews but not having gone here since it was the Twisted Thistle. We were met by an extremely pleasant hostess who showed us to a table for two in an alcove by the front window. Kennedy was our server and she could absolutely not have more pleasant and attentive during our meal. I enjoyed the salmon and my wife had the short rib stuffed ravioli. Both were excellent. We finished off our meal with cannoli cake dessert and coffee. What a wonderful anniversary dinner. We will be back! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Excellent food and really cool vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We told our kids it was haunted lol.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We always over order so that we have leftovers to take home. read more

Just a great addition to the Leechburg area. Nice place to snag a real cocktail. I like the atmosphere and the bartender was efficient and nice. I cannot comment on the food as snuck in a bit before dinner just to have a drink. read more

The food was great. We had the loaded hush puppies and the pretzel. But the cocktails were super expensive. Twice the local average.

We stopped by here around 1:30 on a Monday and it was not very crowded. The space used to be a hotel and the dining room was rustic yet classy, with large windows looking out onto the street. The menu is simple but everything on it looked good. I had the blackened chicken pasta and it was excellent. The pasta was cooked to a tee and creamy, and the chicken had a delicious crust and was tender. Our waitress was prompt and friendly and explained a little of the history of the building when I asked. The prices felt appropriate and the dishes are filling. Based on my experience here I would absolutely recommend it, even if it's a bit of a drive! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Lovely place. Good ambience, great staff - so helpful and friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food was out of this world. We had the loaded hush puppies, ribeye steak, and crab cakes. I also tried faro for the first time - delicious! This was our first visit. We'll definitely be back! read more

This is a beautiful building that has seen restaurants come and go in the past few years. I am glad to see new ownership, with a previous successful track record, renovate the space and bring delicious meals to the area. The service is attentive and the cocktail and beer list is impressive. They are promoting weekly specials in addition to their solid menu and they don't hesitate to try something new. The steak sandwich is delicious and their homemade chips are crisped to perfection. It's so nice to see a new place in Leechburg that has the ability to serve top quality cocktails and entrees. Be sure to try the waygu strip steak if it's offered! read more

My sister and I stopped for a late lunch/early dinner on a Wednesday. Service was excellent and friendly. The food was amazing! Everything fresh and hot. I had the blackened Mahi Mahi with fries. The blackening was flavorful without being too salty. The bun was fresh and the seasoning was delicious. My sister had the salmon and a side salad with balsamic dressing. She loved the salmon and the basalmic was homemade and the best I've ever had. We had the black cherry gelato for dessert. The ambiance is beautiful. Altogether 5 stars. read more

I wrote a detailed review but then said to myself 'why bother'.... First time in this building. It's nice. Just wasn't particularly impressed with the flavor of the food & appetizers. We tried a lot. The "sister" restaurant BOTL is phenomenal. This place, not so much. I'd recommend getting Scott from BOTL (savant chef) to consult & rescue. Hoping for success. We will give it time to work out the kinks... the key word is FLAVOR. read more

Fabulous dinner last night! A friend and I enjoyed the New Orleans-style Shrimp appetizer, Wedge Salad & Steakhouse Pasta. The Mount Fishtail Sauvignon Blanc was quite beautiful as well. read more

Great find thanks n a special community. The NPH is a unique restaurant with a unique style. The service from when you enter until you leave was fabulous! Not hovering but friendly and engaging. Started with three hors d'oeuvres. the Brussel sprouts, flat bread and the chips.The Brussel sprouts were amazing and the flat bread could have been a meal by itself. Tasty and a good size, should Have stopped there. But as expected ordered another beer to have with the Pub Burger. Great tasting and the onion straws were like icing on the cake. Burger was cooked perfectly and the aioli really compliments the burger. Definitely will be back tp check out their other entrees (the beet salad was well received by a few in the party). If you find yourself close make the turn and stop by. read more

Went there for an early dinner. We ordered two martinis that were supposed to have stuffed olives. No stuffed olives. Ordered the filet diner medium rare. Way overcooked. No flavor. Very disappointed in the meal.. Server was very nice and pleasant and never asked how our food was. Everyone was disappointed in the food for the price. The place is beautiful was there when it was the Twisted Thistle and I am disappointed in the current... Hopefully they will do better. I wish them well and not for us... read more

We had a party of 10, with reservations. Once ordered, we waited 3 HOURS for our dinner. By the time it got there, the pasta was hard, cold and clumpy; the scallops were rotted to the point that they smelled like strong ammonia. The place has potential; but not with the current management. I'm giving 1 star because they, at least, had running water. read more
