Saturday night around 10pm there was a three alarm fire in Pittsburgh, and it took out one of my all-time favorite places, The Harris Grill in Shadyside. You can read it for yourself in the Trib here. The Harris Grill used to have FREE Bacon night every Tuesday night. I wrote a story about it along time ago, you can read it here.
The owners say they are going to rebuild which I think is a great idea. In the meantime I hope another local bar starts offering up free bacon. I am not saying I want a replacement bacon night, because nothing will ever compare to Harris Grill, but free bacon would make the pain easier.
I was going to go to bacon night last week but had to cancel. Now I wish I did because it would have been the last bacon night, ever!
RIP!!!
What a great place to grab a beer and some bacon. It will be missed!
Damn it! I never got to go and we were just talking about that last night.
Weird.
Thanks so much for all of your kind words; the support means a lot right now. Check our website for details about the new, improved, bigger, better, stronger, faster Harris Grill!

Thanks for taking the time to comment! I enjoyed your bacon night and I can’t wait to its return.
I will be checking out your website and posting updates here.
A loss for the Bacon Nation!
