Great vegan options - Edit
Many vegan pub food options. The seitan wings were great, they even have a vegan ranch to go with it. They use the seitan for sandwiches and wraps too. Vegan cheese would easily trick a non vegan. The toys and fries are seasoned well and crispy. #Veganuary

Best pub for vegans in south side - Edit
Where to begin! This place is great in so many ways; a legendary spot, with fantastic food, cheap drinks, and a good vibe. Will split up the review into three sections:
Read moreThe Food
Vegan options are extensive, and the whole staff knows what the word means and will look out for you. For apps/snacks, seitan wings are quite good - the $5 small order is plenty, “melting pot” sauce recommended. They have several sandwiches including a seitan wing wrap with peppers and onions (ask for sauce in the wrap), a house made garbanzo bean burger (very good) and a “vegan ribeye” (seitan sandwich on toasted bread, also very good). All sandwiches are ~$10 and include a side. They also have a weekly special, which is always available in a vegan version. Food can take a while during dinner time on weekend nights, so order right away.
The Drinks
The name of the game here is cheap drinks in quantity - this is a pub, not a cocktail bar. The Cowboy is a 24oz PBR and a shot of whiskey for $5 every day, and they have several other $5-$6 boilermakers and $3 bombs - check the online menu. Specials are frequent as well. Good draft list, with both macros and craft - check the brewery of the month to save $. Prices overall are excellent - most beers are $5 or less, 24oz pbr is $3, you get the idea.
The Vibe
Ruggers is more laid-back and adult oriented than most spots on Carson St - being a couple blocks off the main strip, the energy is much less hectic than the more youth-oriented establishments South Side is known for. They do card consistently, especially on weekends, so don’t forget your ID! There are TVs and they will show rugby and pgh sports, although not as many as you’d find at most Carson St establishments. There is some outdoor seating out back, but seating can be an issue during trivia night (Wednesday) and weekend nights. Trivia night here is good and competitive, with better questions than other spots in south side (e.g. Smoking Joe’s - great spot otherwise though). They take credit cards. Big rugby matches (finals, six nations, World Cup) will draw a crowd, so arrive early - check their website to see when they open.
