The Commoner is everything but ordinary. At the core of this Downtown Pittsburgh restaurant are traditional American dishes with a hint of the unusual. A kitchen that excels at fusing modern flourishes with traditional comforts is complemented by the colorful décor, which pays homage to Pittsburgh’s industrial background. The culinary team offers a genuine, regionally-focused, ingredient-driven menu to go along with a wide variety of regional beers and artisan spirits to complete the atmosphere of an American tavern. Seasonal menus at The Commoner give traditional comfort foods a contemporary twist.

The act of sitting down to a beautiful meal and some genuinely good drinks elevates an ordinary get-together to a special occasion. That is the guiding principle behind a recently renovated semi-private dining area at The Commoner. Groups of up to 20 people will find themselves in their own little hangouts to relax and indulge next to the main dining room. The knowledgeable staff is available to assist you with every aspect of planning your event, including creating a delectable menu with upgraded comfort cuisine favorites and a wide choice of wines, beers, and cocktails.

The Commoner serves wines, draft beers, and cocktails. Mocktails are available on the dinner menu, like the Shogun Spritz, which is made with yuzu, lime, orange blossom, hibiscus, and soda.
