Things To Do
Pamela's | P&G Diner
A Pittsburgh breakfast staple! Don’t miss the famous Banana Chocolate Chip Hotcakes — thin, buttery, and absolutely life-changing.
Page's
Page’s Dairy Mart is a Pittsburgh classic! 🍦 A local favorite since the 1950s, it’s the perfect spot for soft serve, sundaes, and over-the-top milkshakes. We’ve spent many warm evenings here sharing cones and milkshakes—it’s one of those places that just feels like summer.
Primanti Bros. Restaurant and Bar
An iconic Pittsburgh must! Their legendary sandwiches come stacked with fries and slaw right on the bread — messy, huge, and 100% worth it. Stop by the nearby Strip District terminal after for some local shopping!
Silk Elephant
Silk Elephant is our favorite Thai spot in our favorite Jewish neighborhood — Squirrel Hill! Owned by some of Jake’s former swimmers, it’s always felt like family. It was often our lunch date spot back when Jake worked at the JCC, so it holds a special place in our story.
Mediterra Cafe Lawrenceville
One of our favorite spots for a cozy brunch date! We love grabbing coffee and pastries here — it’s our go-to for a slow morning together.
Ginza Japanese Restaurant
Our sushi obsession is real—and this spot quickly became our go-to. The best sushi in the ’Burgh, no contest!
Strip District
A Pittsburgh favorite of ours for browsing local shops and small businesses — from quirky boutiques to specialty markets, it’s the best place to pick up something unique and local.
