About

Tilden is Pittsburgh's after-hours club, open every night from midnight to 3:30 am, including 365 days a year. Located above the 941 Saloon, it's a members only venue that draws a mixed gay and straight crowd ready to keep dancing after other bars close. Reviews are split: some love the late-night option and energetic DJ, while others find it pricey and cramped.

The party here is for night owls who want to extend their night. You'll need to become a member (details on the website) and arrive before 3 am. The crowd leans 20s and 30s, and during Pride weekend it's absolutely packed. Just know the drinks aren't cheap and the space can feel claustrophobic.

Located in downtown Pittsburgh, above the 941 Saloon on a busy nightlife strip.

From the community

“Loved it”

Sure, it's not the cheapest option for drinking (there are no drink specials), but it's located downtown, open after other bars close, and it's not some sketchy bring-your-own-bottle spot. They typically have a great DJ and it's an enjoyable place. The crowd is a cool mix of everyone. If I want to party all night, this is where I go.

“AVOID”

Terrible, terrible, terrible. Why would anyone pay for a membership to an after-hours bar where you can't even get a drink before they close, especially when it's not even because the place is busy? Absolutely awful.

“It's a 'SKIP IT' for Me”

You either love it or hate it. For me, it's way overpriced and not worth the effort. If you want to go for after-hours, you have to buy a membership, then you only have about 20 minutes to wait in a huge line to get drinks before last call. Save yourself the trouble: go home after 2 a.m. It's not worth the money or dealing with the drunk crowd of twinks and their girlfriends.

“Shitty and cheesy hole in the wall club/bar”

Unfortunately, it's one of the few after-hours spots for the queer community in Pittsburgh. I had a bad experience there one night after going many times before. I was treated very unfairly, probably just because I'm Black. You can only hope that people like that change or the bar closes entirely. Besides that, I always thought the DJs were bad and the place feels claustrophobic.
