Death Comes Lifting brings inclusive workouts, sick merch to Allentown's corridor of horror

Death Comes Lifting opened its first physical location on Feb. 4 to a crowd of tattooed, band-shirt-wearing visitors. The dark-walled interior is a far cry from your typical CrossFit or Orangetheory location, and founder Zak Bellante says that's by design — this is a gym by and for the misfits.

The Open Road: Pittsburgh’s First Alcohol-Free Bottle Shop Launches in Allentown

Although you can find smatterings of alcohol-free beverages in bottle shops around town, The Open Road is the first retail business in Pittsburgh fully dedicated to selling nonalcoholic drinks. Owner Mel Babitz stocks the shelves of her Allentown storefront, which opened late last month, with a dizzying array of bottles that mimic traditional spirits, wines and beer, minus the boozy parts. There are functional drinks spiked with botanicals such as kava and ginkgo biloba and simply-just-delightful-to-drink fizzy lifters, too.

Grin And Bear It: A New Bakery And Eatery In Mount Oliver Will Make Your Stomach Growl

With the help of RE360,  'Brown Bear Bread Cafe hopes to find success in the historical storefront with pastries and parties.' The location of the storefront on Brownsville Rd is nestled in the heart of the Mt. Oliver business district and is a part of the ongoing revitalization of the neighborhood.

The team at Brown Bread Bread Cafe are here to break the cycle. They got the keys from RE360 on May 9 and opened for business on June 3. '

Allentown Chose a New Style — It Went Goth

The Hilltop neighborhood has embraced its status as Pittsburgh’s slightly spooky territory, and it seems to be paying off. 



Call it goth, if you grew up in the ’90s, or metal if you’re a bit older. Up and down Warrington Avenue, an array of businesses underline the aesthetic. Among them: The Weeping Glass, a can’t-miss “Oddities & Curiosities” shop; metal-themed vegan eatery Onion Maiden; Dr. Tumblety’s “time-inspired specialty shop” with a secret speakeasy — pictured above — in the back (open for events only for now); the neighborhood’s anchor, Black Forge Coffee House; and decidedly cool nail salon Goodbye Lulu.

After having to skip a year due to COVID-19 pandemic, the Hilltop with the Lid Off festival is returning this year with more festivities than before.

Bottlerocket Social Hall wants to spark a comedy scene in Allentown
