Kelly's Korner

It's a hockey night in Pittsburgh! If you are looking for a true Pittsburgh hockey bar, look no further than Kelly's Korner. It’s the kind of bar where you will make new friends while watching a hockey game and screaming at the TV. If there is a hockey game on and you have no interest in hockey, please go somewhere else. You will be annoyed by the screaming hockey fans and they will be annoyed by you. It is just a vicious circle of annoyance.

About the bar: It is a small Irish bar in the Pittsburgh vein of Irish bars (which means that it has some ugly green shamrock stuff up). It’s pretty much exactly what you would expect. It’s pretty tiny, is cash only and there is smoking. It’s a neighborhood bar where you watch hockey, as opposed to a sports bar. The drinks are pretty cheap and they are served with indifference to non-regulars. However, we did see much love between the bartender and some of the permanent fixtures there. The regulars even seem to help make sure everyone is taken care of, which creates a nice vibe.

The only other thing we will say is that we are happy there is not a “Kozy” in between Kelly's and Korner. We once accidentally rented a racist cabin in Deep Creek with a name like “Kozy Kottage Kabin.” We did not think much of it until we found the KKK section of the guest book. It definitely gave a different feel to our lakeside cabin and we felt super weird about it. Then we got drunk. It’s called coping. At any rate, we’re hoping Kelly’s Korner doesn’t have the same issue.
