This South Side pub is inspired by the British Isles, making it the best sports bar in Pittsburgh for soccer fans. With an extensive food and bar menu, there is bound to be something for everyone at this popular watering hole. One of the things that separate Piper's Pub from other spots in the area is the massive selection of scotch they have to choose from, with approximately 100 different varieties from around the world. To fully embrace the Piper's theme, we suggest trying the classic Shepherd's Pie with an Imperial Pint (which is priced at under $6). For a fun, yet classy feel, Piper's is a true find that gives sports bars a good name. Hours: Monday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.; Sunday, 9 a.m. to 10 p.m.
