An awesome Scottish pub which offers great comfort food. Their wide variety of imported beer and craft IPAs is another reason to visit.
Go to Point Brugge cafe. Try a Belgian beer while you wait to be seated. Order the Moules and Frites and don't feel bad asking for extra crusty bread at the end.

It's not really as much of a museum as you'd think. It's pretty much just a regular McDonalds with some Big Mac artifacts. It's still pretty neat to see though.
Old school Ice cream parlor and the chocolate castle decorated for the holidays are cool. Great place to take kids

Tickets from either incline work at either incline! So use one to go up and one to go down and enjoy the view on the walk down Grandview Avenue!
The best Sichuan cuisine in Pittsburgh at the moment. Reminds me of fond memories of Hot Kitchen on the LES in NYC. The Chengdu Beef is sublime. The Snow Pea Leaves are a rare treat.
Came for the pinball, stayed for the hip atmosphere and delicious cafe drinks!
A true Pittsburgh gem. Every pinball game you can imagine or have ever played. A testament to the passion and care of those who run it.
You don't have to pay until you exit, so you can probably technically ride round-trip for free (up and back without getting off).
This place is one of a kind. You can buy all kinds of games for your game room and there are certain times you can pay a flat fee and play all the games of your childhood. www.pinballperfection.com
Worth it to buy the monthly pass. There’s retro consoles, VR, pinball, board games, traditional arcade games, etc. It’s all here. Plus really good shakes too. My fav is the Picard.
Great hot dogs. I had two. One was Chicago styled and the other was more barbecue styled. Tasted great with the casing. I enjoyed Pittsburgh and Pennsylvanian craft beers. Good stuff.
Bring cash tips for the bar, and be ready to sweat your ass off to incredible underground house and techno. Everyone from local deejays to the biggest in Berlin. Craziest dance floor vibe in the city.

Some of the best homemade cards you can find. Interesting things to browse and some very funny posters and pictures to admire or purchase. Really neat place.

Pittsburgh is known for its rich Polish heritage, which is why a visit isn't complete without a stop to Pierogies Plus. See why this restaurant has been voted "Pittsburgh's Best Pierogi."
A friend from China took me here originally, and said it was the most authentic she's found in Pittsburgh. Order from the Sichuan menu, not the "American" one!

Beautiful alley, efficiently filled with over 30 lanes. Very well-maintained and super friendly staff!
I had the grilled chicken tacos (one of the few options if you don't eat spicy) and the others had Korean tacos and ceviche - they were all delicious. Try Korean only if you can handle a 7-8/10 🔥🔥🔥
The family who owns and operates Wigle is fantastic. They provide awesome tours and host wonderful events! As in individual or visitor take a tour. As an organization partner with them!

This scenic overlook, which provides a breathtaking view of Downtown and the Golden Triangle, is also home to many of Pittsburgh’s most elegant restaurants, unique shops and memorable places.
A must-do in the Strip Distrcit. Locally known as Penn Mac. Fine Italian grocery with 400 cheeses. Meet "Dear Heart," a local celeb--she's the cheese monger & calls everyone she waits on dear heart.
Sunday brunch can't be beat. The ambiance is amazing and a great place to bring out of town guests
Maz uni and bat. Mr Rogers and king Friday make this a worthy trip. If you like the Steelers it's a must. A tad pricey should be like ten bucks
There is a farmer's market every Thursday from late spring until early autumn. It's open mid-morning to mid-afternoon, but get there early for the best selection.
The server recommended the yellow fin tuna and it turned out to be amazingly good. I got the port one with a side of Brussel sprouts (the best b sprouts I have ever had). So definitely recomm this :)
It was good before; it's even better now. Immense selection, knowledgable staff, but it's the used games and loaner program that puts it over the top. One of the best.
Best Christmas tradition. Amazing old style toys, ornaments and collectibles.
Not as big as it's predecessor, "Groovy", but the owner is as nice as could be, has extremely reasonable prices, and even stayed open late so we could see everything. Highly recommend stopping there!
Check this place out on Thursdays and Fridays for some excellent games! Great group of people that show up topped off by an amazing staff!

Favorite sandwich is California Tuna rare, beet salad instead of slaw. Favorite sushi is the sweet seas platter with scallops.

Best view in the city. Skip the other Grandview Ave restaurants. Altius is more delicious and amazing than all the others.
Best place for tea!!! Great prices and large variety. Margaret is very knowledgable!!
Lots of heart in their small, original dishes. The Halusky is excellent, as are the French fries, and if they have it, the New England Clam Chowder is incredible.
Cool cooperative bookstore for your progressive reads need. A snugly place, they've got lots of rad new and used books (esp. from small prints) to dive into. Good cups of tea and java too.
Came here on a late Saturday afternoon. LOVE the atmosphere and food was good. Service was exceptional. Definitely coming back - draft beer list one of best we've seen in Pittsburgh.
Best Burgers ever!!!! Milkshakes are out of this world! And they have the best sangria on the planet!! And for all the beer snobs, an excellent selection of craft beer on draft!

Excellent downtown hotel in old bank. Super friendly staff, abundant food and drink perks, pool and hot tub, spacious roof deck. Don’t miss the old vault doors preserved on the first floor.

Lots beer on tap, theirs and from other craft brewers. Also ciders & meads.

The stuffed chicken was good. Can't wait to come back and try the fried & the meatloaf
Beautiful interior, amazing food, and attentive, friendly service. Perfect place for a date or special event. Korean BBQ sandwich, rock shrimp, sushi! Can’t wait to go back.
Tasty Korean fast casual spot with very pleasant leafy green decor. Bulgogi, KFC, and sides were all delish and staff was friendly.
Chilled peas are amazing. All food is good but a bit pricey. Their brews however are awesome and very reasonably priced. See the upstairs living wall!
This is by far the best ice cream in the area. Pink champagne is the best sherbet. Cherry is the best ice. Peanut butter parfait is the best ice cream. Everything is good. You won't be disappointed.
Excellent food selection and taste, good selection of beers on the tap wall. When not in the mood for beer the cocktails are delicious

Papaya salads are a highlight of the menu, but the curry puffs, fried tofu, fried tilapia, laab, and Kua Mee were also terrific. Also, they have a full bar, and good rotating draft selection.
A place that everyone should visit. A Pittsburgh oddity that is truly different. Mr. Arm, your host, is that kid in school you always knew would be a mortician or taxidermist or serial killer!!
The owl event was really cool, as was the experience of waking right up to a variety of tropical birds... Be sure to listen to the kookaburra, it had me cracking up.

Black Yoga Merch, Altar and the Bull patches, Poison Apple Printshop & so much more! The spooky centric products by local artists and small businesses encouraged my wallet to open. I'll visit again!
All Polish food and gifts. I have never had a bad pierogi kielbasa or golabki here. The Polish stuff is really great too!
Fine French cuisine at the amazing Nemacolin Woodlands Resort. This is a serious dining experience. For a bit more casual time try their famous Sunday Brunch!
This is pretty standard American-Chinese fare, but at a higher level of quality and service than the vast majority of places. Popular for lunch, pretty bleak at dinner (as is to be expected downtown).

Holy hell, rare chuletas de cordero (lamb chops) a la plancha are phenomenal
Korean market near the ends of the Strip. On weekends, come for the BBQ and Korean styled pancakes. The smell is amazing.
