funny thing about AMPD, i didnt know which restaurants were in their group, but they are literally all the bars/restaurants which are independently the worst places in the city. the fact it's the same people is just icing, but my god they're scam artists

Really need to rephrase this post as “Worst bars in Pittsburgh that aren’t AMPD Bars.”

Had to look up what AMPD was. Not sure about the bars, but the restaurants suck.

Foxtail is trash, Local is mediocre at best, and Penn Society is way overpriced but I actually kind of like Standard Market. Can't really say anything about the other places they own.

I'm relatively new to Pittsburgh and this is the first time hearing about the AMPD group. Briefly looking at their website, they don't look bad/sketchy... What's wrong with AMPD?

Everything. Literally everything. Bad food overpriced drink, falling apart buildings. Terrible employment practices. The guys running it are grifters who know how to polish a turd well but that’s about it. They make their stuff look ok and then everything of substance is the lowest possible quality.

Iiiiiinteresting. I had to google them, no idea all those places are related. Makes sense. Though I did do decently once at Local while waiting for a show at Club Cafe.

Worst bars in Pittsburgh (saw this on the Cleveland subreddit)
