Every year thousands of people flock to PNC Park with the hope that the Buccos will revisit their 1979 glory, and these fans bring along their  cravings for the flavors of the North Shore and surrounding areas.

There are actually over 30 designated Sustainable Pittsburgh Restaurants within a 2-mile radius of the park that not only serve up delicious foods and tasty drinks, but are also working hard to build vibrant communities and a healthy environment. So, no matter who you are high-fiving during the game, here are some places that will delight anyone who raises the Jolly Roger.

Taking the kiddos?

• Chateau Cafe & Cakery: Cracker Jack and cotton candy pale in comparison to  their delicious home-baked treats.
• Bluebird Kitchen: Have something fresh and homemade on your walk to the park.
• Millie’s Homemade Ice Cream: Celebrate victory (or comfort feelings of defeat) with an all-natural cone.

Going with your foodie friends?

• Legends Eatery: A bit of a walk from the park, but this classic Italian staple is well worth the trip.
• Eleven: Seasonal dishes and a great wine list add to the enjoyment of any game.
• Kaya: The game may be on the banks of the Allegheny, but a meal here will transport you to a tropical destination.

Heading over with the work gang after 5PM?

• Fl.2: An upscale place to grab a bite or a cocktail before or after the game.
