So, my wife and I go out for wings weekly after work. We alternate between a couple of places. Until last week, it was Wings, Suds & Spuds alternating with QSL in Robinson. Well QSL suddenly (even to their management) shut down last week, as the building was sold.
Looking for suggestions in the Moon/Robinson area with good wings to take home after a couple of drinks while waiting for our order to be ready.
Amaze me. Please.
The Hangar used to have really good wings, but I haven't been there in almost 10 years.
Didn't even think of the Hangar. For some reason, I almost never do, no matter what I'm trying to think of.
Lol I forget that place even exists until I'm heading down Flaugherty Run to go someplace. Is it any good?
Like Seejay, I also have not been there in years but it used to have quality bar food. It's still the same owners so I doubt that has changed.
Patrick's Pub is that way too, I haven't had their wings in years but used to be good.
Sidelines in Sewickley or Wiggy’s in Crafton (this one’s more of a takeout spot though)
Can confirm the wings at sidelines are pretty good and it’s a great area to walk around for a date too
If you don't mind traveling across the river Bridgetown Taphouse has great wings and drinks. Also some of the best fried pickles I've had around the area.
The Steel Shaker and the Jailhouse in Coraopolis have okay wings. The Jailhouse is just a pretty entertaining environment if you and your wife are into people-watching and/or dive bars.
My personal favorite, though it’s a bit of a trek for you, is Sidelines in Millvale. Their dry rubs are phenomenal.
No particular reason, but I've always worried about getting, say, hepatitis at the jailhouse. Haven't thought about the Steel Shaker since it was whatever 4-names-ago.
And, yeah, Millvale is rather out-of-the-way for take-out on the way home from work. (Moon & Beaver Co to McKees Rocks)
I’m not saying you WON’T get hepatitis there, but life is all risk-taking.
Try bronze hood
Patrick's Pub in Moon. And their fries are delicious too. I like the hot raspberry wings.
Not quite Robinson but Fireside Inn on rt. 60 has great wings if you don’t mind a dive bar. Drinks are cheap and strong!
Not Robinson, but not far from it.
Cole's Pub in Imperial, right on Route 30
Edit: Also not Moon/Robinson but close by.
Yes! I forgot about Coles Pub. I used to love their wings.

Wings,Suds and Spuds on University
That's already in the rotation. Good suggestion, tho. Still wish they'd gotten the land from the former rub-n-tug (now an empty lot) next door for more parking.
The Hangar has good wings!
For a less traditional wing I like the whole Jamaican jerk wings at Bahama Breeze. They are part of the happy hour specials from 4-6 weekdays.
Big Shot Bob's but I don't know if they have alcohol.
a stretch, but Bigham Tavern on Mt Wash can be pretty good. next time you are in town and want some of the best around, tho, go to Wm Penn Tavern (now in Lawrenceville)
The Tav’s on Butler St. now?!?!?!
What’s Rattner thinking?!?! 😧
Wasn’t his decision, blame Henne for giving them the boot. Mostly sad for Shady, tho, as it proves to be a boon for Rat and the Tav. Butler St didn’t have anything like it, not down where they are anyway. And it’s still the same great place and great people. He actually played the hand he was dealt like a boss, who would expect anything less
Ah… landlords, good to hear. Not saying Larryville isn’t a good location, esp from what I read these days. But the Tav holds a special place in my heart, I couldn’t imagine it anywhere else.
Good on Him for playing the hand well…
(Shout out to Pompa, Wayne, Fulton & JG! 😎)
Lol bet we’re friends in real life
I bet we are… killed me when I went home last and saw Village Pizza at the OTHER end of Walnut! (R.I.P.)
😏
It’s not even there anymore. It’s not anywhere. That was for sure a big loss to Shady too
Geez… Jack & Pauly gone too. 🤦🏻♂️
For Moon/Robinson, there's always the Buffalo Wild Wings over at The Pointe (in front of Home Depot).

Mad Mex has surprisingly good wings.
