After three decades, Redbeard’s Sports Bar & Grill on Shiloh Street in Mt. Washington is closing.
Owner Len Semplice announced on social media that the establishment’s last day of operation will be Dec. 21.
“This is a sad day,” the post said. “The Mt. Washington community has been our family, and we have grown together over the years.”
Semplice said on Facebook on Dec. 12 that he wants 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.”
Redbeard’s second location, which opened on Sixth Street in March 2013 in the Cultural District, Downtown will remain open.
According to the post, this will be a semi-retirement for Semplice, who was not available at either location and did not return an email requesting an interview with TribLive.
“Hope to see yinz all dahn town!” Semplice wrote.
