    I've been to Two Frays twice in the past few weeks so I'm going to consolidate both visits into one review. Both times, I sat outside on their patio during my visit. They have seating inside as well. I placed my order at the bar and then found somewhere to sit. In addition to regular beer, they have n/an options and arsenal cider. The staff have always been super friendly when I've done. They don't serve food but there are eateries nearby that you can order food and bring it/have it delivered to Two Frays. Both times, the vibes were nice and chill. Definitely a great hangout spot right in the heart of Garfield.

    Two Frays is a great spot in Garfield. They're super neighborhood oriented and dog friendly. They always have a variety of beers and are well-known for their Nonalcoholic offerings. Not only do they brew NA beer, but they have NA cocktails and ginger beer available. The outside area is cute and has fire pits and a covered pavilion. This trip I had the Schwartzbier Terminator Tinkerbell which is a perfect winter lager and Jen's lil Cuties which was porter conditioned in chocolate and orange candies. It was sweet, but I enjoyed this twist on a more classic porter. We recently attended trivia here too which was fun. They always have great events, feature local artists, and occasionally have food trucks/vendors. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable.

    Small, hipster, locally owned brewery. My favorite thing about Two Frays is their mod Monday a.k.a. non-alcoholic Mondays where they only sell non-alcoholic drinks. I have been sober for 22 months and I haven't seen a business do anything like this. The vibes are great. The workers are great. I've met so many friends here. They have an outdoor patio and free board games for guest to enjoy. Highly recommend checking it out.

    I went to an event here that clabed w Pittsburgh Social Health. This place has a really cool vibe. They change out their art work monthly w new artists & their drinks are so good. While they dont serve food they let you bring in anything you want . Def a cool place

    I love the Bloomfield/Garfield/East Liberty area, but this place disappointed in every category to be honest. It definitely isn't of my favorite breweries in Pittsburgh and there are a lot, but mainly because it has zero character whatsoever. The atmosphere seems stuffy which is odd considering where it's at plus it's a brewery, but nobody seemed to be having fun, just drinking beer like it's a job they hate. Truth! I love the building itself and the beer garden is cool, but the inside is very hospital like with zero charm or any coolness level and we didn't see anyone smiling or having fun. Odd! So we left after a flight and a beer and cider. The layout is just off and the way the bar is laid out causes confusion when people were walking in and trying to order beer. The people who waited on us weren't super welcoming or friendly either. The beers are just okay and nothing to rant and/or rave about. Will I go back the next time I am in the area, maybe! I believe everyone deserves a chance for redemption.

    Awesome Hefe!

    Excellent brewery offering a great selection of beers no matter what your tastes may be. The space is bright, beautiful, and welcoming both indoors and outside garden. Two Frays are owned by a husband and wife couple that generously pour their passion out in pints for the local community. Please stop by and check them out! You won't regret it :)

    Nice local place offering (non)alcoholic drinks with indoor and outdoor seating. Knowledgeable and friendly bartender! Dog friendly. Reasonable prices. When we were wrapping up, there were artists setting up tables for what looked like a craft fair, which suggests Two Frays is well integrated into the community.

    This place has been on my list of stops for sometime since they opened. It's on the east of the city where I do not adventure too often. I'm happy I was able to stop by finally. Easy to locate with GPS, parking on the street only. Small brewery for seating inside but wasn't crowded which made it work. Plus they have a nice spacious outside deck area to sit. It rained so thankfully they had seating under a roof. They do not offer flights, but they will do 5 oz pours for 4-6 beers. I did 4 (5) oz pours of the two hazy ipa's, french lager and red ale. They were all tasty but my favorite was the LG2P Hazy. They have chips, but I noticed people leaving and picking up food from around the corner as it appeared to be some type of pizza shop nearby. The setup inside is nice and reminds me of an ice cream shop but better with craft beers available. This marks the 94th micro-brewery that I've visited in the Pittsburgh region. Only 7 more to go and I've been to everyone of them. :) Cheers!!!

    Small pours on a tray as opposed to flights. So far so tasty! Great place to sketch or read. Family/ neighborhood vibe. Ahhhh...

    Really nice place with an outdoor patio. Multiple small pours in lieu of flights. Nearby pizza joints & friendly staff.

    dog friendly in outdoor patio. Only Sparkling wine options plus seasonal cocktail pours in addition to their rotating brews on draft. Unfortunately on the day we went, they were out of their most popular brews and out of the cocktails. They allow food brought in from nearby eateries. Very friendly service. Ambiance is more of a hipster vibe. Interesting. Just not for us.

    My friend had booked this place for her birthday party! It was a fun night! Every beer we had was really good. They also had good non alcoholic options. Music was really good and the service was on point. They allow you to bring your own food! There is a covered patio and inside seating. Overall, I'd say a great place for pre-drinks!

    I recommend the IPAs. They rotate so there is always something new. Neighborhood haunt with good lighting and clean floors.

    Like most breweries, they are heavy on IPAs, but that is the big trend so I can't hold it against them.

    Food, yes! Service, absolutely yes!…read moreAmbiance, needs a bit more gnome-ness! 10/10 Parking yes, but Uber, Lyft better for everyone!

    No complaints about Blue Sparrow. The food was amazing and so accommodating.

My girl friends and I came after four years of me wanting to come here. I love Gravel Grinder and live close to an OTB so heard of Dancing Gnome from that. Finally made our way there and well, make sure you do not bring young kids. My friend had an 18 month old with us and as she was BUYING a beer from them, the guy who worked there asked if she "could keep the screaming to a minimum." An eighteen month old!!! And Mother's Day is tomorrow, nice. He said that they had to draw a line somewhere and he wasn't kidding. The 18 month old was not running around screaming crying all day. We were outside having the kids play and when my friend was buying a beer he got a bit fussy and was told to keep it to a minimum. Needless to say, we will NOT be coming back. If you have small children, I would not suggest this place. Super disappointing. I've always hyped their beer and place up and now I can't support it. We ended up going to Grist House and it was a WAY better vibe and WAY busier...I wonder why. I should have known when their sign said no dogs allowed.

    Nice. A decent range of beer styles to cover a wide range of preferences. Some lower alcohol…read moreoptions. This is part of the Hazelwood Brew House complex, which means there's enough space that things don't seem too loud or too over-full. I went on a Saturday afternoon and absolutely enjoyed the beer. There are food options available in the same facility, but they are offered separately from any of the breweries. As best as I can tell, parking is all on the street, but it wasn't hard to find a reasonable spot right out back. In terms of service, I have no complaints. It doesn't take much to keep an eye on the level of my pint glass while I do some reading, but the bar tender felt responsive, asked if I wanted another just moments before I finished my first pint. I didn't get the impression that the she was a beer nerd, but she was absolutely very helpful and attentive. In any case, I highly recommend checking out the whole complex.

    Located in the Hazelwood Brew House, you can purchase beers on the lower level or in the tap room…read moreon the 3rd floor. We opted for the two room and the air conditioning. Super friendly and you can sample the beers - they even encourage you to sample before deciding on a pour. We each tasted a few then ordered a flight of three: El Hefe Esta Loco (my favorite), East Coast Haze (his favorite out of all 3 breweries today) and Blonde Ambition. The beers were all refreshing and flavorful. I also tasted the confluence (a must try in Pittsburgh) and it's great if you are looking for a lighter beer.
