The Tiki Bar Reddit Can’t Stop Talking About. Plus, Yemeni Coffee & RIP Bryant Street

Downtown's new tiki bar has a volcano, a sunken fire pit, and a drink menu that admits it was made with AI. Host Megan Harris and interim newsletter editor Laura Tsutsui get into whether Spork Island Trading Company is worth your time and money. In other food news: Badamo's is bringing its signature sandwiches to Dormont, a kosher market is coming to the old Rite Aid in Squirrel Hill, and a Yemeni coffee chain is opening its largest location in the country Downtown. Plus, we say goodbye to Bryant Street Tavern, Mary’s Vine, and the Original Pittsburgh Winery. But fear not! We still have some pretty great spots to grab a glass of wine.  Got a patio we should know about? Call or text us at our EAT OUTSIDE HOTLINE 412-212-8893!
