Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Pittsburgh is, without a doubt, a city that likes to eat. If on-campus dining becomes a bore, a student has a plethora of off-campus dining choices, offering a variety of cuisine, from American to Middle Eastern. Duquesne’s students often take advantage of the campus’s convenient location to dine downtown, in the South Side, and in the surrounding suburbs.

Among Duquesne students there are many favorite off-campus dining spots, including the ever-expanding Waterfront in Homestead. Here you will find numerous eateries from national fast food chains to elegant sit-down restaurants to the home-style cooking of Eat ‘n Park. One should definitely visit one of the many Primanti Brothers locations throughout the area. Their sandwiches have made our city famous.

South Craig St. Is THE BEST in Pittsburgh!

If you need good Off-Campus dining, go to South Craig St. It's right by the Carnegie museum and has at least a dozen great places to eat. I think there's two coffee shops, a Subway, a sit-down grill restaurant, a great middle eastern place, a cupcake shop, an awesome Asian restaurant called Lulu's Noodles, an organic/ethically raised food restaurant, a crepe shop, a frozen yogurt shop, and more. I'm not kidding you, this street alone is loaded with great places to eat. Oakland has tons of other amazing places including a Pittsburgh must: The Orignal Hotdog Factory. Really, if you want good, affordable off-campus food, just take a bus to Oakland!

Better Than on Campus

Off campus dining, being in the city, provides a lot of options. Put Milano's number in your phone, because they are open until 3 or 4 am, so that's what everyone orders (usually under the influence of alcohol, so if you pass out before you get your pizza and pay, they blacklist you). Milano's is close to campus and has a college deal for the students ($10 get you a large pizza and free drink) and is of course really good. Cheesecake factory is also really popular, usually for birthdays. Being close to downtown, there are a lot of options there (Chipotle, Noodles & Co., Dunkin' Donuts, etc.), plus there is South Side (Pita Pit, Pretzel Factory, Milkshake Factory, etc.). You definitely won't get bored with off-campus dining options
