(Pittsburgh, PA) Primanti Bros. has now closed two of its Pittsburgh-area locations permanently, citing a “shift in consumer behavior” over the past few years. A Primanti Bros. spokesperson confirmed to WTAE about the closures yesterday. However, those locations will become new restaurants. The Monroeville location will be opening as a Thorn Hill Tap-House and the North Versailles location will become Smash Pub, a sister restaurant to The Smash Shack on Pittsburgh’s North Side.
