Upon entering this 'Burgh hot spot, you may be surprised to learn it looks absolutely nothing like an old fire station. Thanks to faux-antique couches, oversized ottomans draped in velvet, a dim red glow, video projections of old-school films and large painted murals on the walls, you may be surprised to learn you're still in the 'Burgh at all. A laid-back crowd of good-looking young professionals, trendy social butterflies and hip-hop fans makes this spot a welcome exception in a town where sports bars and cheesy techno music are the norm. The lounge serves up a tasty little menu of hors d'oeuvres, including the 'Burgh-inspired Crispy Pierogi Napoleon and kielbasa-and-sauerkraut spring rolls. Happy Hour specials run every day from 6 to 8PM, and the friendly bartenders are always willing to try out their new specialty drinks on a few lucky patrons. Located on Penn Avenue, away from the cluster of high-profile clubs in the Strip District, this lush little lounge is here to stay.
