It might seem odd that there’s a bar underneath one of the largest freshman dorms on Pitt’s campus, but according to J.B. Brunton, a manager at Hemingway’s Cafe, the bar most likely pre-existed the Litchfield Towers above it.
Hemingway’s Cafe announced last Friday that it will reopen March 31, with modified hours to account for the state’s current 11 p.m. curfew on alcohol sales. The reopening comes more than a year after the bar, located on Forbes Avenue, initially closed on March 14, 2020.
