Things do to in and around Pittsburgh during your visit:

If you’d like…

*An amazing view
Ride up the incline to have a cocktail or dinner at one of Mt. Washington’s beautiful
restaurants.

*A great beer in a cool venue
Head over to Church Brew Works. Both the beer and authentic stained glass
windows are awesome. Food is good too!

*To support local CMU students
Stop by the Conflict Kitchen. Carnegie Mellon Students are the driving force behind
this quick food stop. Every few months they feature different foods and (non
alcoholic) drinks from a country whose ideals conflict with the US. Other notables in
the area (East Liberty‐ish): Whole Foods, Trader Joes, Target and Home Depot.

*Vegetarian home cooked brunch in an eclectic setting
The historic South Side is home to the fun little antique shop/diner (see below). You
may be sharing a table with a local family who could give you’re their insights.

*Shop at some really unique family businesses.
The strip district is Pittsburgh’s “wholesale” district (think homemade tofu and
imported pasta) and tasty food carts in. (Please note, this is best visited Saturday
am).

* Trail run or walk in the woods, or watch dogs playing the dog area
Head over to Frick Park. There are many entrances to this park, making it accessible
from many neighborhoods. You may catch a resident there with his family, running
her daily route, playing a game of flag football with the program or walking the dog
with a couples matched significant other.
