Bishop's Corner Cafe - Pittsburgh

Tried this place for the first time tonight and it was such a fun, neighborhood vibe. Cool bartender, lots of regulars, and tbh the best aperol spritz I've had. Will definitely be back.

Ham Bean soup to die for! Served with a side of thick, soft buttered bread. It was all that, trust me. We started with zucchini strips which was a generous serving and an equally generous side of very flavorful marinara. Hubs had the Pork Chop Special: one chop side of potatoes and some very colorful, super flavorful Corn Black Bean Salad. I had to steal some of the latter and it was very yummy. I also had the Caesar Salad. Meh, it was ok. Also served with the thick, soft buttered bread. The place is small, only a handful of tables. The parking lot is a challenge, small and packed. The service is great and the food is fabulous home style cooking, served hot. If you're sick of the chain eatery experience and looking for a great casual meal, this is it!

I was little torn about writing this review, as I hate to talk bad about small businesses, but I came here for lunch a few weeks ago, and from my vantage point at the bar, I could see into the kitchen, and watched the cook make my food, and I could see that she never washed the produce that went on my Italian Sub. I saw lettuce and tomatoes that went straight from the plastic packaging, to the knife for slicing, and then onto my food. It grossed me out, as those things should've been washed before prepping. Also, I overheard one of the employees say they needed to purchase some meatballs from one of the food service companies, so that means they are not freshly made, but frozen. My lunch was O.K., but it wasn't the same Bishop's Hoagie that I used to eat here back in the day, when this place still sold ice cream, those hoagies were awesome. So, sad to say, no cheers for this place, which is unfortunate, because I wanted to try the turtle soup one day, but I most likely won't be coming back.

Duuuuuuuude, what an awesome place!!! I had been here a few times when it was the American Cafe, and I really enjoyed it, but now it's on another level. It's been spruced up a bit and the food is top notch. We came here and they were short staffed and their cook called in sick, so their menu was limited. We had a BBQ chicken pizza and stuffed peppers, and both were Fantastic! The lady wasn't comfortable grilling chicken so she used chicken tenders instead and it was awesome! The stuffed peppers were served with buttered Italian bread and in a bowl with plenty of sauce for dipping. Charlie, the bartender, was great, and their prices are very reasonable! Will definitely be back!

This place is a small corner cafe off of Campbell's run. I've passed it for years never went in. The other week, I gave it a shot. I got an order of Wings, onion ring, had a yuengling while I waited. First; the beer was so cheap good Lord! The wings were good sized and delicious, onion rings were generous for the price, it was awesome!! Remember this is a bar, so expect bar food but being that it is if you live nearby this is a solid stop. Price and quality is good!
