Pittsburgh's Strip District

The Strip District is packed with fun things to do for guests who are coming in from out of town. That's why we chose hotels located in close proximity to the area! Although you aren't fully in downtown Pittsburgh, you get the same vibe. We have put together a list of some of the most talked about activities and restaurants nearby.

Primanti Bros. Restaurant and Bar

46 18th St, Pittsburgh, PA 15222, USA
(412) 263-2142

If you have never been to Pittsburgh and experienced a Primanti's sandwich, you are missing out. This is one of the places Pittsburgh is best known for! You'll see why fries on sandwiches and salads are symbolic of Pittsburgh.

Pamela's Diner

60 21st St, Pittsburgh, PA 15222, USA
(412) 281-6366

If you are looking for a good brunch spot, Pamela's is your best bet. If you ask Lizzie, you NEED to get crepes, but if you ask Bradley, he'll probably tell you to steer clear of crepes lol.

Puttshack - Pittsburgh

1729 Smallman St, Pittsburgh, PA 15222, USA
(412) 900-7888

Guests who are coming for a few extra nights and want a fun activity should check out the Puttshack in the Strip District. It's fairly new to Pittsburgh, but the reviews have been great, and it gives you something to do besides eat or shop!

Senator John Heinz History Center

1212 Smallman St, Pittsburgh, PA 15222, USA
(412) 454-6000

If you enjoy learning about history like Bradley, stop by Heinz History Center and learn about all things Pittsburgh in a six-floor exhibit!

The North Shore

PNC Park & Acrisure Stadium

The North Shore is known for hosting both the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Pittsburgh Steelers. Although it's not baseball season, we think PNC Park is the most beautiful stadium in baseball and still worth seeing! You may also be able to catch the Pitt Panthers at Acrisure Stadium or the Pittsburgh Steelers!

The Andy Warhol Museum

117 Sandusky St, Pittsburgh, PA, 15212

Did you know Andy Warhol was born and raised here in Pittsburgh, PA? The Andy Warhol Museum is a must if you are interested in art and the life of Andy Warhol.

Carnegie Science Center

1 Allegheny Ave, Pittsburgh, PA 15212, USA
(412) 237-3400

For the science nerds (like us)! Kill some time at Carnegie Science Center!

Nightlife

The North Shore has plenty of bars within walking distance of each other. Here's a few: Shorty's, McFadden's, BURN by Rocky Patel, Bar Louie, and Jason Aldean's.

Elsewhere in Pittsburgh

If you feel like venturing out of the Strip District, there are plenty of other sites to see and places to go, including some of our favorites below:

Washington Incline or Monongahela Incline

You can either take the Monongahela Incline or Duquesne Incline to the top of Mount Washington and get an amazing view of Pittsburgh. If you take the Monongahela Incline, be sure to check out the 218 Grandview overlook. If you take the Duquesne Incline, check out the Washington overlook.

Market Square

Pittsburgh, PA 15222, USA

Market Square is full of restaurants, shops, and markets. If you are wanting to walk around and just pop into places, this is a good place to go. Given the time of year that our wedding takes place, you might even get lucky and see some holiday decorations going up (and a huge Christmas tree).

Point State Park Fountain

601 Commonwealth Pl, Pittsburgh, PA 15222, USA
(412) 565-2850

The Point is infamous in Pittsburgh as the point where the 3 rivers meet (Monongahela, Allegheny, and Ohio). It's a beautiful spot to take pictures and get a view of some of the major stadiums and skyscrapers.
