Pittsburgh: Guided Secret Food Tour

Pittsburgh: Guided Secret Food Tour

We'll begin in majestic Point State Park, the apex of the Golden Triangle, where the Monongahela and Allegheny Rivers meet to form the Ohio River. First, you'll sample our famous pepperoni roll—a bite originally popularized by local coal miners for its portability. Next, you'll warm up with a bowl of an iconic Italian-American comfort food, often served in Pittsburgh’s old-school restaurants. As we stroll through the neighborhood, you'll hear how our Cultural District has transformed into a dynamic arts and entertainment scene and learn about The Three Sisters. Then, it's time to indulge in a very special version of our most famous sandwich, stacked high with all the fixings—Yinz guys hungry yet?! Of course, no visit to Pittsburgh would be complete without paying tribute to Picklesburgh or the furries! Finally, you'll discover just why Pennsylvanians love chocolate so much at a shop that has been family-owned since 1913. As with all our tours, there's also our delicious Secret Dish!
