The baristas are craftspeople that are kind, cheerful, and it's fun to converse with them.

Excellent eats for everyone. Ask to sit in the garden when it's not cold, it's beautiful. I recommend their mango-chicken salad, but it's excellent for vegans and vegetarians.

Called "Federal Galley" on map apps. A unique place for drinks and food. 5 restaurants in one space. Something for everyone, with a great bar and a great outdoor space for a good hang. In the evening the sunset is beautiful to watch!

Solid burger place. They have the vegan burger too, which I recommend! A good place to hit up before or after a game, or after a long run.

Great beer and good food. Very reasonably priced, outdoor seating for warm days. Open late, and a good hang to meet people. A good spot before or after a game. Great for a post-run beer, then you can walk back home and nurse sore muscles.

This place is a diamond in the rough. Most Pittsburghers don't even know about this place. What it lacks in looks on the outside it MORE than makes up in taste once you're inside.

This is a MUST try! Call for a reservation, but if they're booked, don't worry, just show up and if you hang for 10 minutes you can get a table or sit at the bar. It is worth it! It's a bit pricey for tacos, but the splurge is worth it.

Vegetarian/Vegan? This place is fantastic! Omnivore? You won't even realize it's vegetarian or vegan. Upscale/Elevated cuisine at a really excellent price point. I recommend the chef's table if you call or make some reservations. It not, it's still a fantastic meal! Great for a date, or something special.

Drinks & Nightlife

A neighborhood staple. This authentic, decades-old, Irish bar is THE place to go if you want some good bar food, to watch the game, to meet up with some people. It's like your own personal "Cheers" studio setup in real life.

If you're into an authentic bar like Moe's Tavern that hasn't changed in decades - this is your place. No frilly cocktails or fried Brussels sprouts here. Just a bar that will have you convinced you walked in to a time warp to 1972.
