    Beer on tap menu
    Christina W.

    Large local brewery with a restaurant and outdoor play area. We came on a busy Friday night for dinner and they seated us right away out back on the deck under the giant umbrellas. We sampled a couple beers and chose a German lagger and an IPA. Then ordered a cheesesteak sandwich with kettle chips. Only part not enjoyable was the bread (too dry).

    The food was delicious, the inside is spacious and modern, and the servers are very kind. We will be back! Yum!!

    Spoonwood has been a beloved spot of ours for beee and food for a few years now. One of my favorite things about this place is they have so many different styles of beer, and they all seem to be incredible. Truly, something for every beer drinker! Their pizzas are out of this world, as well as their smoked meats. Large portions and great food! I suggest the cornbread muffin as a side.

    I stopped in for a drink between appointments and was not disappointed. It was 3pm on a Friday afternoon, so it was not busy but started to get busier after 4pm. Our server was quick and attentive. The ambiance was relaxed and a good decision for a Friday afternoon.

    Tucked away in Bethel Park, this place is perfect for sitting outside, grabbing a few drinks and some good eats. Stopped here while in the area, based off other reviews and we really liked it. Services was great, forgot to capture our two cocktails but we tried the spoonwood spritz and the pink pony (seasonal I think) and they were really tasty, not too strong and a good size. Food wise, the pizza was the star of the show. Tomato vodka sauce with some mozzarella hit the spot, plus the crust was light and airy but had that crunch and chew that made it perfect. On the other hand, the kickin chicken was dry and didn't have any distinct flavor to it. The slaw was ok but that's all you really tasted, the Sriracha dusting provided little flavor or spice and the mayo was hardly noticeable. Overall, definitely wanting to go back and try another more of their pizzas and a few drinks while the weather is nice enough to sit on their patio.

    We had a great dinner at Spoonwood. We all enjoyed our meals and the beer is very good! I started with a strawberry cream ale called shortcake. Next, I tried ballistic pickle. It was a cucumber sour and was very tasty. For dinner, I had the smoked meatloaf and it was very good. The service was good and this is a great venue. Lots of room both inside and outside. It's got a great bar. You should go!

    Amber lager

    Came here while visiting family in the area. Large, open area with a bunch of high tables. I got the pierogi plate and an amber lager. Both were quite good.

    My philosophy continues that you can't be a brewery and have good beer AND food. This food was average. The chicken reminds me of crock pot chicken, bland, cooked in too much liquid, and tasted slightly old... The pizza was good, again the chicken was eh, but overall the flavors of this were good. The beer was cold and refreshing. Service was fine- we came at an off time so we're seated quickly. The space is big and they have nice outdoor seating, covered for the winter right now. Overall a decent spot if you're in the area!

    I've been to Spoonwood before for apps and dinner and really enjoyed myself. However, we visited for brunch this morning and were pretty disappointed. The potatoes were completely bland and very mushy, and the coffee was quite bad. The biscuits & gravy and avocado toast were good, but we'll probably stick to snacks/dinner here if we visit again.

    Brunch pizza

    Spoonwood is one of my most visited local businesses. I am a big fan of many of their beers, their collaborations with other local businesses to create them (example: my constant favorite here, Cold Drip City, is infused with a dark roast from Allegheny Coffee & Tea), and their wood-fired pizzas are reliably excellent. My favorite is Pretty Fly for a White Pie. With garlic oil, cherry tomatoes, basil and cheese, you just can't go wrong. I've had lots of other menu items including salads, soups and the falafel that are also consistently good; I'm a vegetarian but my family likes items from their smoker like baby back ribs. I like sitting on their outdoor patio, which they have screened in for the cooler weather. That's helpful in giving them more space, too. (Note that even during summer, the outdoor patio is not dog-friendly. There are occasional dog nights on another part of the lawn! Follow their socials to know when.) Recently we came on the weekend during brunch, which was a different experience. There is a specific brunch menu and that is all you can order from during that time. I tried a brunch pizza, since I'm a big fan of the pizzas here. It was able to be customized to my liking (holding the meat) but I found it just a little dry. My companion got a brunch burger that included an egg. I might try one of the sweeter brunch choices next time. The savory seemed like a better idea if I wanted to try some beers, which I did as there were new autumn ones on the menu. That's one of the best reasons to keep coming back, the constantly rotating beer selection. Get a flight of minis to try as many as possible.

    Gross pickle

    It's all gone south. Store bought generic chips on both the appetizer & main. Greasy gloppy artichoke dip with nary an artichoke lol. Chef Boyardee pizza sauce on a pizza with bad basil and was it cooked in the pizza oven? It was worse than a take and bake, we just left it behind. Chèvre chicken sandwich with a half teaspoon of chèvre, not caramelized - caramelized onions, rubbery chicken. Even the pickle was bad! Aperol spritz missing Prosecco? It seemed like a half shot of aperol in soda water. I hate complaining because covid made it all bad, but no one even seemed to notice or care.

    Veggie omelette
    Maureen R.

    I've eaten here more times than I can count but this was my first time for brunch. And let me say, dang was it delicious! I met my girlfriends here on a Sunday. We got there right at 10 for opening and there were several people already there. The place continued to get busier as the morning went one. Everyone started with drinks. I had the Irish cream coffee, it was perfectly made and had quite the kick! I honestly couldn't make up my mind on what to eat but the veggie omelette had stout glazed onions in it and I couldn't resist. I've had them on pizza before and they are phenomenal so I knew it would be good. It also had roasted red peppers and feta cheese. It was so simple but one of the tastiest omelette's I've ever had. Others had the eggs Benedict, or avocado toast and eggs. Everyone loved their meals. They also had breakfast pizza, which I want to try next time. Oh and our server was just lovely. She was so patient as we took what felt like forever to place our orders.

    I mean always awesome but I heated this up three different times and it tasted just as good as it…read moredid fresh out of the box.

    Let me say that Pizza Lupo is my favorite Pittsburgh Pizza. I know Fiori's won some competition,…read moreand I have had Fiori's pizza, and it cannot beat Lupo. Our favorite is the Drunk Meatball: that homemade vodka pizza sauce, and their homemade meatballs, along with the rosettes of ricotta cheese is amazing. Lupo has a wonderful char to the crust and the undercarriage is slightly crispy. The second favorite is the 10th Ward pizza: the combination of meats, peppers, and ricotta makes it amazing. The challenge we have had with Lupo there isn't a place it eat inside, and it takes 20 mins for us to get home, so we have lost some of the warmth and the crust isn't quite as crispy; enter Coven Brewing. We go to Coven and get a beer, we have placed our order with Lupo and we will walk down, get our pizza, walk back and demolish it. Coven has some great beer, especially if you like IPAs; Lupo has Pittsburgh's best pizza; I cannot think of a better pairing. The service at Pizza Lupo is great, they are kind even when their phone is ringing off the hook. Our last time I was getting busy signals because calls were coming in so fast. Somehow they maintain the ability to get a pie out the door in under an hour. When we go there, there are boxes stacked high and they have a steady stream of people entering and leaving, never do I hear a complaint.
