My husband and I took a tour here and had a blast. Our tour guide was so outgoing and made it interesting. We got to sample 5-6 samples plus try one of their signature drinks. They have a nice outdoor seating area that is dog friendly. Great place to visit during a hit summer day. I definitely recommend doing a tour. Great history.
Nice bright building with quaint outdoor area. I got the Cinnamon Toast Punch which was excellent! My husband ordered an Old Fashioned - one of the classic cocktails Wigle refers to regularly - and the bartender had to Google it to make it and unfortunately it did not turn out well. They replaced the drink for free which we absolutely appreciated... However, my husband ordered a Mint Julep and it was an entirely different color and taste than the Mint Julep our other friend ordered just moments before. We have always enjoyed the main Wigle location and hope the drink consistency will continue to improve at the Barrelhouse.
A beautiful space with an amazing staff. Everyone is really knowledgeable and helpful. They make finding a new favorite drink really easy. This was their first summer open, Im excited to see all of the events and stuff they have there going forward!
Not open to the public now.
Visited here for the music festival that was using this location for the show. Awesome small garden. Would love to visit just for the vibes of the place sometime.
Went to the Barrel House for a networking event and the staff was awesome and helpful! The team is really active in the local community and non-profits, which is super refreshing.The craft whiskeys also taste amazing and I am patiently waiting for their next release of their bourbon.Also got an informative tour about the history of the distillery and the aging process. Had a ton of fun and definitely will be back soon.
Wigle has the best local distilled Pennsylvania Rye. You can also sample several other spirits that they offer. Which are also exceptionally good. You can try samples of their spirits before purchasing or have them make you a cocktail. The people are always helpful & knowledgeable of not only Wigle products but local history.
We had been to the distillery in the strip district, so we stopped here. No food. Limited seating inside. It was a sunny hot day and we sat outside. Otherwise, we wouldnt have stopped. Very limited parking.
Staff is great! Very friendly, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable! Mixed drinks are flavorful and well-crafted. Some really awesome whiskeys and bourbons coming down the pike. Be aware - the barrelhouse is not climate-controlled, so dress appropriately for the weather.
I was actually very underwhelmed by the finished products I sampled, although the ideas behind em are good.If they would just spend a little more time and energy on fully refining the product before bottling then I think we will have an excellent Distillery right here in the city of Pittsburgh. But for right now, the alcohol taste really out ways everything else and whatever concoction you are trying to drink. Just a shade better than bad moonshine.
Great tour guide with lots of interesting info! Very informative & my husband loved bottling his own whiskey! Well worth the tour & time!
The venue is mostly outdoors with live entertainment and is dog friendly. Parking is a bit of an issue, you just have to be creative. As for wigles products, they have an extensive line of amazing whiskeys, Bourbons, etc. You really should have a DD.
Unbelievable whiskeys in the tasting room. Great charitable event selling the best Christmas trees Ive ever bought. A Pittsburgh treasure.
Great spirits, fun atmosphere and there is usually live music. I cannot recommend the tour highly enough. There is plenty of parking down at their ciderhouse which is not too far of a walk (and also a must visit)
Great atmosphere, very friendly& fun staff, and awesome drinks. Really enjoyed the G&T. We were there during Deutschtown Music Festival
Its a nice spot for sure. But, Ive unfortunately never enjoyed their cocktails much. They tend to be too sweet. However, they do serve beer on tap, so thats good.
Amazing whiskey and whiskey cocktails. Had a band there also. Was a great time.
I visit Pittsburgh frequently with my wife and usually some friends. Our last trip was the first time we checked out the Wigle Whiskey garden and I was thoroughly impressed. We always visit breweries, wineries and distilleries and this was definitely my favorite one yet. We were greeted by an extremely friendly gentleman ( I wish I could remember his name) who gave us the history of what Wigle was about, which made the experience all the more great. I love how they gave the place a contemporary feel, which added to the experience since I usually think of a distillery as old or antique in design. Even if their whiskey was terrible I feel like I would have still bought some just based on the incredible experience I had. However, that was not the case and their whiskey is amazing. They have a multitude of flavors that would excite any pallet, and I will certainly be returning there for more. I highly recommend this place, and it is a must see for anyone who visits Pittsburgh.
Great outdoor space with fun cocktails, food trucks and live music. Great tour where you can fill a bottle right from a cask.
Wigles barrel house is always an enjoyable time. It has a laid-back atmosphere and wonderful outdoor seating. Occasionally there will be a food truck or live band playing as well. The only downside is it is hard to find parking.
Lovely staff. Great cocktails. Saw good live music. Leave extra time to find parking.
Always a fun time, with great staff and interesting food trucks. The only drawback is how early they close - because they are a working site, and the distillery crew starts third shift.
Great tour, wish it was more clear about pouring your own bottle at the end of it.
Great place to hang out. Try some Whiskey and Cider. Families, Dogs, and Groups are welcome and the Food Trucks are awesome
Very nice selection is whiskeys, great cocktails, kewl space, what more could you ask for? I had to stop in for the Afterglow whiskey (with ginger) after trying it at the airport 👌
A super chill place with board games and tonight they had Spork Pit Food Truck which was OUTSTANDING. Pets encouraged but must stay in the Whiskey Garden. :)
They are great good drinks the Pittsburgh bourbon was fantastic want a bottle for sure
Awesome space. Parking can be rough but if you dont mind walking its not too big a deal. As with anything Wigle does, its quality.
Learn the history of whiskey and get to taste what they are working on, during their tour. And get one of the cocktails in whiskey garden they are unique and delicious.
This place is great, they always have events and music going on. Drinks are superb. They have an outdoor area with oversized Jenga and cornhole. Distillery tour is worth it. However due to the location parking may be difficult.
Best spirits and cocktails in Pittsburgh! Amazing whiskey, bourbon, and unique spirits made with partnerships with local breweries. Food trucks at the Barrelhouse on the weekends.
Nice open setting thats dog friendly. Parking is a little tricky but the drinks are good and theres usually a good food truck on site.
Great outdoor area with stage for live performances. They always have different activites and events in line. Sunday Funday for beer and a shot of a nicely paired whisky!
Amazing tour and good whiskey. Great way to spend an afternoon or evening. Bar and out door seating is great for conversation with friends.
Not only is the place itself super chill (and dog-friendly), the drinks are great too. The cocktail selection is perfect, they have beer on tap, and you can even sample any of their liquor. My fav is definitely the barrel rested ginever. Also, my server, Maranda, was great!
Awesome little bar and agreat outdoor patio for hanging out during the spring/summer. And cant forget about the whiskey and other spirits. Top notch stuff!
Went for a private function. Great whiskeys to sample and a beautiful outdoor patio/lawn. Greta place to host a party.
It was good we went for the lobster truck and drinks
Excellent selection of local whiskeys in a laid-back setting off the beaten path.
Great whiskey and atmosphere. Would be nice to mix up the menu a bit and also make the cocktails at the time of order.
I have been a big fan of the Strip District location for a while now and now can add the Barrelhouse as a regular stop. The setting is very relaxing with great cocktails and a good selection of food trucks on the weekend.
Not much of a whiskey drinker but thw atmosphere is cool
Good, tasty cocktails. Went during the deutschtown music fest and had a great time!!
Good place located a little away from Pittsburgh downtown. Whiskey is really worth the price.
Rambo and Bekky are always super helpful and knowledgeable. I love the atmosphere and ofcourse the whiskey is delicious.
Nice atmosphere, good drinks and music.
Great atmosphere and better cocktails. Loved that its local! Parking can be iffy though...
Great cocktails but hard to get to without driving.
Good tour, great whisky. Good thing to do for a couple.
Annual stop during Deutchtown weekend. Fun place.
This place will really bring out how cool your grandpa is. (see my attached photo)
Delicious drinks and a fun and clean atmosphere!
Awesome place in the most random of locations, but gives it great ambiance.
This is a really nice outdoor spot with a simple stage. Similar to the setup of Bayardstown, though a little smaller and newer.
I wanted to like this place more than I did. Its a nice outdoor space but get here early because seating fills up quickly.Their spirits are all good, but their cocktails were disappointing. Their take on classic cocktails like a mojito, dark & stormy and others are flat out bad. For their mojito they use honey instead of cane sugar or simple syrup to sweeten it. You wouldnt think it would make that big of a difference, but it really does. The mojito also seemed to have almost no carbonation and lacked much rum or mint flavor. It was a similar story for people who got the dark & stormy. Ive also tried different cocktails at their distillery in the strip district and those were disappointing as well.The positive is that it is a nice outdoor space with corn hole and live music. Their spirits themselves are actually very good (especially the gin and the whiskey aged in tequila barrels) .However, its in an isolated location with limited parking and not much else in the immediate area. I like the idea of what it could be but the drinks were so bad that I likely wont return.
Great place, great drinks, just wish parking was a little easier
Great bar, except not in a good area.
Great craft cocktails with awesome outdoor space.
Wonderful outdoor space with ample seating and some of the best spirits that you can get for your money in PGH. Trust me! Youll be back.
A great place to sit outside and enjoy a good cocktail!
Wags and whiskey dog friendly place
Here for the Christmas tree sale. Great cocktails, friendly service!
Great spirits and atmosphere. Very small pours and drinks
Great outdoor space, fun selection of cocktails
Good whisky distilled locally
