Popular sports bar on Pittsburgh’s Mount Washington closing after 30 years

Redbeards in Mount Washington

PITTSBURGH — A popular sports bar on Pittsburgh’s Mount Washington will be shutting its doors after 30 years.

Redbeard’s Sports Bar & Grill said it has decided to not renew its lease and will be closing permanently.

“This is a sad day,” owner Len Semplice said. “The Mount Washington community has been our family, and we have grown together over the years. I want to thank all our loyal customers from the mount and all-around Western Pa. as well as the hundreds of tourists that made that ride up the incline to enjoy our locally-owned establishment whether it was to watch their favorite sports team play or enjoying dinner and drinks while listening to acoustics on the patio. This is called semi-retirement.”

Redbeard’s location in the Cultural District will remain open.
