Overview

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".
