I meandered into Dr. Tumblety’s on a whimsy and was absolutely blown away. First I was welcomed with an introduction to the stores namesake and then given a tour of a few up and coming additions including a beautiful distillery and a speakeasy called The Storyville Lounge. The speakeasy was incredibly curated with beautiful vintage decor meticulously collected. I enjoyed their Sazerac and felt transported into a different time. This is an absolutely unique and welcoming hidden gem that deserves the main stage in Pittsburgh

What a delightfully bizarre little boutique and bar / performance space. Fun stuff to buy and browse, great drinks at the back room bar!

This is a great one-of-a-kind store. The speakeasy in back is incredible. Staff is delightful. Can't wait to see the distillery.

Step into an old timey emporium to peruse books, candles, and a variety of mercantile wares. If youre lucky enough to attend an event via the secret door you'll come upon a 1900s style bar decked in lush reds and copper. Fantastic space. Rumor has it they're expanding!

Such a wonderful store! Authentic and alluring - in all the best ways. Also reasonable! Better than any of the shops they are inspired by from New Orleans, in fact. And the back room, The Speakeasy, is absolutely breathtaking- the real deal!!

Super friendly staff. If you're new they will tell you who Dr. Tumblety was. While there she told of some awesome changes happening to the store including #speakeasy and a lounge that is to die for. They have products from all over the place but a heavy Nola influence. The story itself is a must stop on any list if you're going through Pittsburgh and especially if you live in Pittsburgh.

Really awesome spot, with a super cool vibe, some really awesome vintage merchandise and delicious drinks and friendly staff.... When you walk in those doors you feel like you're transported to a different place and time.

This is one of the most interesting shops in Pittsburgh. If you're in to 'odd shops' and a vintage vibe this place is precisely on point. Their inventory is well-curated and the staff can tell you interesting stories about nearly every item. Bonus: it's in an enclave of other interesting shops and great places to eat. And, it puts you in the vicinity of the best views of any city in the US. I've added this to my short list of top spots to take friends and family when they come to town.Edit to update: This place just blows my mind. Visited again today and there is a straight up spider proudly sharing his space with them. For a month now. They've named him. This place is truly inspired by unexplained but thoroughly enjoyable forces. The regular array of carefully curated collections present as well, but the spider stole the show. Love it.

This place is truly magical. I've been here a number of times for incredible shows with beautiful performers and wonderful people. The crowd is always so friendly with one another, and the owners are often checking on people and right in there helping their incredible staff keep things running smoothly. I absolutely adore this place and it feels amazing to be part of a show here. They also have a really cool shop and one of the owner even crochets and hand makes a lot of the items. It's a must visit location in Pittsburgh!

This is such a cool little shop and event space! I have been here multiple times now for different events as well as for picking up the perfect gifts for friends that you won’t find anywhere else and I can’t say enough good things. The space is adorable with amazing attention to detail - You almost forget that you’re in Pittsburgh. The staff is not only knowledgeable but extremely friendly and kind. And the events are so much fun with awesome drinks and service! If you are ever in the area, this is a must visit! Or if you are ever in need of a unique event space, this is it! And if you haven’t been here yet, you’re missing out.

This place is hands down one of the most unique shops in Pittsburgh. You will not find anything like it in the 412. The owners/workers are some of the nicest home grown people you will ever meet. The shop has so many cool/unique things. I found myself doing several laps, finding something new each time. If you are planning a small event, please check out the lounge in the back. Can’t find it inside? Maybe pull on a secrete book from the spooky shelves and see what awaits you ;) ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE

I love coming into Dr. Tumblety’s. I pretty regularly stock up on colognes and beard oils here, because they carry some absolutely great stuff (that I OFTEN am complimented on)! I’ve also bought many a gift here, as the selection is always interesting and varied and I can always find something someone will like. I’ve also had the pleasure of attending a few events in the Storyville Lounge space, and they have always exceeded expectations in ambiance, professionalism, hospitality, and most of all, fun. The staff are above all class acts, and Pittsburgh natives bringing about something unique and incredible to the neighborhood. I’ll be planning my own event here soon, I’m sure!

Such a unique space and a hidden gem in Pittsburgh! This is by far one of my favorite shops to buy gifts from for my family and friends and they're always a hit.I loved the shop and vibe so much that I also attended an event here and it was a blast. The cocktails were delicious, the decor and furniture made for such a perfect and picturesque evening. We will definitely be back!
