In town for a week, what shops should I hit?

Hi Pittsburgh folks -

I'll be in town (again) next week for work, just wondering what shops are worth taking a look at while I'm there. I'm staying downtown so probably would need to taxi/Uber.

Thanks!
Larry

p.s. I'm pretty sure there's a way I could have worked a "yinz" into that question.

Well I guess that depends on what you consider to be taxi/uber distance! Lol. The two main stores in the area, are Aqua World and The Reef Gallery. Both worth taking a look at and the Reef Gallery just got a new shipment of livestock in yesterday I believe. From town I would say that they're 15-20 minutes (Aqua World) and probably around 40(the Reef gallery).

If you wanted to go on a trip out to Mercer, a little over an hour away there's a really good store out there as well called "Coral Cave" in Mercer PA. It would also give you an excuse to stop at the grove city outlets!

yeah... Honestly there really isn't much that I would consider taxi/Uber worthy. Aquaworld is more like 15min from downtown. Reef Gallery (where I work) is half an hour. If you are from Denver I don't know what more you would be looking for...
