It's sad, but not surprising. Being a small business owner is usually a thankless job, and you don't get nearly as much support (and free marketing) as the bigger outfits. Pittsburgh is a closed off community when it comes to restaurants and retail in a lot of ways, and cult followings are often not enough to keep these places going. It's a damn popularity contest out there and as much as we don't want to admit it (and as cool as this sub is), for the most part, we're a basic bitch city 🤷
