Experience Details

On our Secret Food Tour: Pittsburgh, you’ll explore the beating heart

of Steel City—Downtown Pittsburgh.


Our experienced guides will lead you on a vibrant journey through the

rich history, diverse culture, and thriving food scene of Pittsburgh’s

bustling downtown neighborhood. Along the way, you'll indulge in

classic comfort foods, iconic local specialties, and modern takes on

beloved regional flavors. As you enjoy each dish, you’ll discover how

we evolved from an industrial powerhouse into a dynamic, food-loving

city with a deep appreciation for its working-class roots and

immigrant influences. Downtown Pittsburgh is a place where history and

innovation collide. From the towering glass skyscrapers with historic

charm to our unexpected love for pickles, this tour will take you

beyond the obvious and into the true flavors of "The 'Burgh".
