Things to do in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (PA): The Best Fun Activities & Games
Pittsburgh has been remade and reimagined. Think 24 miles of riverfront trails, beautiful parks and historic attractions. Home to 90 neighborhoods, the ‘Burgh feels authentic and unpretentious. No visit is complete without a trip to the Strip District or PNC Park, a ride up the Duquesne Incline or a stop at The Andy Warhol Museum. Architecture buffs love Pittsburgh for the amazing downtown buildings. Hollywood producers, do, too—the city has even been called the “Hollywood of the East."

There were five of us that took on the Dr. Stein’s Laboratory. We solved all the very clever puzzles that kept us thinking. I can’t tell you much about the puzzles other than we escaped with 50 seconds to spare! Located in an old building, another reason why Pittsburgh Escape Room is notable. Special thanks to the staff who were engaging and put on the extra special touches ala mad scientist.

Amazing time. This was the second painting with a twist, but first time at this facility. Simple instructions and everyone was able to add their individual touch. A group actually even showed up late and the instructor was able to help them catch up while helping the rest. I would 100% recommend if you want to do something fun and relaxing

I was so impressed with the warm, inviting atmosphere of Colony Cafe. Not only were the cats friendly, playful, and of course, adorable, but the staff members were also extremely kind and informative. We had such a nice time relaxing, playing with the fur babies, and watching the city from the stunning windows. The cafe has lots of places to sit and a large variety of toys to help interact with the cats. Since they are able to house so many, you'll find a variety of feline personalities from snuggly to playful and everything in between, making a visit perfect for a calming rest or some more active entertainment, depending on your mood. We found the cost to be well worth it for an hour and really appreciated the venue's mission to ease the burden of local shelters and help cats in need find forever homes. Colony cafe was sparkling clean, too. I have mild allergies and did not run into any issues. Even if you haven't been around cats much before, this would still be lots of fun. Perfect for newbies or long-term cat lovers! Also, if Licorice is there, give her a love for me! You might just find one of these babies leaves a pawprint on your heart. <3

This was a fun place to visit, the decor was entertaining, the entire first floor resembled a pinball machine floor. We did also enjoy a coffee. The only negative as to be expected on a Saturday night in Lawrenceville was the trouble parking. Neat place, five stars.
