About

Anything and everything Pittsburgh, honestly listed.

Pittsburgh Spotlight is a local guide to Allegheny County built from public data: a map you can actually browse, a guide for every neighborhood and town, and The Deal Curtain, a Thursday email that keeps the deals for subscribers.

What we stand for

Real data first

Listings come from Allegheny County food facility permits (updated October 2026). A few hundred more come from OpenStreetMap (© OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL) and are marked unverified until a permit confirms them. If we don't know something, we say "not listed yet" instead of guessing. How complete is the map?

Labeled money

Sponsored and Featured spots are always labeled, and paying never changes a list.

Owners in their own words

Spotlight stories quote owners as written. We don't invent details or quotes.

Deals for subscribers

Deals live in the email only, which keeps them worth having for readers and businesses.
