The R Bar’s motto is «Rock With Your Friends» — That’s what we do. Music, 45 nights a week, Tues — Acoustic Open Stage w/​Tom Lagi & Katie Simone. Weds — Electric Open Stage w/​Craig King and friends — 08:30 both nites. Fri and Sat — The best bands in Pgh 09:30 — Sunday, The Midnite Horns, Jazz/​Funk/​Blues etc. Excellent! 7PM start.

NO COVER EVER! We are a friendly Bar, and a fun place to spend the evening and hear some great Pittsburgh music — as well as a few National Acts and some Care –ee okee thrown in. Reasonably priced drinks — NO Food, but best Pizza in Dormont right next door and an ATM across the street.

We are on The Corner of Blues and Rock and Roll!

Keepin It Live In Dormont.

Please Stop In and say Hello!!,

Gary and Debi!

History

Established in 2009.

This Bar had been in this location for approximately 40 years under two previous owners.

Debi and I purchased the Bar in 2009, re-​named it The R Bar and started Rockin!

Initially, we had food. This proved to be logistically a problem when we started our real love — The Music.

Being a Musician myself, I was able to rely on my many friendships in the Pittsburgh music scene to get us started with some great entertainers. Then by word of mouth from the Bands, we built what we have now. The best music venue in the South Hills — and getting better every day — Blues, Rock, Jazz, and Funk.
