Are you ready for the fake palm trees, christmas lights, and a stuffed parrot holding a Corona? Then this place is for you- great margarita specials (ignoring the fact that they're kind of like drinking 7-11 Slurpies) and the best 80's music on Wednesdays. Come with a group of friends for a great time- definitely a switch from the more 'upscale' locales in the city. And a well-appreciated one.

A remarkable way to view the city, known for the aesthetic appeal of the night skyline. Great views of the two relatively new stadiums are also ensured and are of particular note on game nights. A nice group outing can be provided here, though about 3 hours is plenty of cruising the picturesque three rivers.

though the location leaves a bit to be desired. Having a wide selection of savory and sweet crepes, perfect for dessert or an out of the ordinary dining experience. Seating is rather limited however, so expect a line and arrive a bit earlier than the posted closing times as sometimes it may be so backed up.

Situated in the greenery of Western Pennsylvania, this well known site is truly the epitome of his goals of naturalistic architecture. Built on the cusp of a waterfall, it seems to complement the natural scenery around it, as opposed to overcome. Tours are well worth the money, though picture-taking is only allowed outside.

Locately conveniently on the corner of Forbes and North Craig, this is a nice spot for those with an antipathy to Starbucks. Often sporting notices for local bands, political meetings, and other assorted events you won't find advertised elsewhere. Be sure to try the granola, it's fabulous, as is most of the vegetarian fare. A nice place to spend the afternoon whiling away the hours studying, doing a crossword, or taking advantage of the wireless connection.

While certainly a crowded location with cramped quarters and a line out the door, the half price 22 oz margaritas of a whole slew of flavors certainly makes up for it. The food is your average northeastern version of Mexican, but still fairly tasty. Be sure to check out the happy hours on Friday from 4:30-6:30 and take a special glance at the signs designating the bathroom. A word of caution: they are now fairly strict on IDs, so don't try a fake here.

Dave and Andy's has been around for ages and is a local favorite. Rated among the top 10 ice cream places in the country by USA Today magazine, the flavors change on a daily basis, and all of the ice cream is home made. Well worth the line often extending out the door on a hot summer day.

but not much else. I worry this is what happened to the CMU students who could not get through premed. Rumors of pregnancy tests for anyone who walks in, as well as STD panels and a diagnosis of mono for everything from rashes to acute stomach pain run rampant- and while I am sure these are exaggerated, only visit health services as a matter of convience, not dire need. Appointment hours are limited, as well as often quite late when you actually manage to get one.

This little jewelry store located on Walnut Street, a prominent shopping area, is a gem. They have an often one of a kind selection for competitive prices, but the real draw is the personable staff. If you come to frequent the store, they will often remember you and suggest something just your style. Sometimes random discounts accompany that personal service.
