Poetry Lounge

Love this place. An intimate, trendy, hipster dive, with vinyl spinning and great live music.

I absolutely love Poetry Lounge. Literally everything about it from the decor...amazing homage paid to so many local and national folks alike.Mural by the famous local artist Rick Bach.Love that you can attend poetry readings, open mics, book launchings, deejay nights, live band karaoke, live bands, art shows, and so much more entertainment-wise.THE STAFF ABD OWNERS ARE SOME OF THE MOST INCREDIBLE HUMAN BEINGS ON THE PLANET!!!Light food menu, can't beat a hot dog and chips for $5.Let's talk cocktails...On par if not better than the likes of high-end cocktail bars you'd expect in NYC, London, or Chicago.Carefully curated, liquid works of art. Support local business.

Great love music, friendly bartender, creative strong cocktails. Drinks to suit a wide range of budgets and tastes.

I had the pleasure of visiting Poetry Lounge, which has been open for just about a week now. It's located in the old Happy Days and Whispers Nest spot, and stepping inside was like a trip down memory lane as the interior hasn't changed much. It was wonderful to see the record collection and the stereo for playing vinyl music still in place.One notable change is the impressive selection of crafted mixed drinks. I had the Sangrita, a delightful tomato-citrus blend with Joven mezcal, served in separate glasses for a unique sipping experience. According to the mixologist, Sean, it's a traditional Mexican drink, and I absolutely loved it! Poetry Lounge offers plenty of other drink options to cater to everyone's tastes. The Long Island Iced Tea was also a standout choice. The bartender/mixologist demonstrated their skill by crafting each drink to perfection, including a fantastic Sazerac Rye, a traditional New Orleans style drink.While they don't currently offer food, I was pleased to learn that it's planned for the next couple of weeks. I'm definitely looking forward to revisiting Poetry Lounge to explore more of their drink menu.

Randomly stop in after leaving another bar up the street. Absolutely loved the vibe of this bar. Very interesting list special cocktails. I would definitely go back.

Great local bar in Millvale! Good drafts. Good cocktails. Great music. Great crowd. Great bartending staff! Highly recommended!

We do recommend this business. The drink of the mind is like a litmus. Walrus. Flexibility and selection are beyond expectation. I got
