Pittsburgh Trip

[Spur08 384]

I'll be at UPMC getting some CME credits this weekend. What places should I hit up for dinners?

i'm sure that dinners at the places up the duquense incline suck, but you definitely want to have a drink on the patio of one of them if the weather cooperates. 

primanti brothers makes a tasty sandwich.

William Penn Tavern is solid. Good wings.

I had a good time at the South Side bars in my early 20s.

I love Pittsburgh smash american eagle hoes

 

Primanti us the only place I could drink at 8am and not feel bad. Also I think a good wing place was called Fat Heads. I was really drunk during my time there sorry

Deluca’s Diner and Pamela’s are both great spots for breakfast. Near Primanti’s in the strip district.

Meat & Potatoes is downtown, and a solid place for dinner. Great bar too.

Was pleasantly surprised how beautiful of a city Pittsburgh is.  I was a bit meh on Primanti's, go if you want to say that you went, otherwise I'd skip it. I need to make another trip to PNC next summer.

Yeah and pretty cool coming from the west out of the tunnel for the first time.

Church Brew Works is a pretty cool brewery. There is also a rum distillery close by - Maggie's Farm Rum Distillery.

I feel the same about Primanti's. Pretty good sandwich, but wouldn't eat there again. Worth checking out though.

2013 WVU game we had such a good time we returned in 2015. That said in 2015 we also planned in a Steelers game on Sunday (got to see John Football right before he was out of the league get his ass kicked by Ben).

Ate at Meat and Potatoes that Sunday night. Great place. Solid bone marrow.

Yes, Primanti's was vastly overrated, imo.

I had brunch at The Commoner last summer. It was pretty good, and the bloody mary saved me from my brutal hangover.
