Butterjoint is a comfy bar and restaurant located in North Oakland. Our welcoming and eclectic atmosphere is appropriate for almost any occasion - whether it be meeting a friend for a drink, celebrating an important event, or relaxing after work. Our menu is a mixture of familiar Pittsburgh foods (think pierogies, hamburgers, French fries) and French bistro classics (beef tartare, raclette, mussels), and seasonal classics that come and go throughout the year. We put care into our vegetarian dishes too, including making our own tempeh, falafel, and veggie patties from scratch. Menu items change frequently--usually every day--and reflect many long-standing relationships we have with farms and breweries in our region. In addition to reservations, we also have a thirty seat bar that is first come, first serve. We don’t know exactly how old the bar is, but it’s at least seventy years old (probably older) and very cozy. Our friendly bartenders are here to make something you like.

A Legacy of DistinctionGrace Stone Mansion (formerly Greystone Manor) was built in the early 1900s by E.H. Reid, on the site of the original First Presbyterian Church. Constructed with stone repurposed from the church’s foundation, the home was designed as a lasting statement of presence, craftsmanship, and stature within the community. What began as a private residence would go on to become one of Scottdale’s most distinctive architectural landmarks.
