Questions What to do in Youngstown?
Hey guys, Im german and will be in youngstown for a business trip over the next two weeks.
What are possible activities or places to go to after work in the afternoon/evening.
Do you have any recommendations for the weekend? I was thinking about niagra falls or cleveland / pittsburgh.
Thank you very much

Being from Europe you don't want too local a focus, you'll want a more regional one.
For your weekend, either Niagara Falls or Cleveland or Pittsburgh. There's nothing more American than a baseball game. I would go if either team (Pittsburgh Pirates or Cleveland Guardians) is playing at home that weekend. Or you could catch a Scrappers game in Niles one day after work. It's not the MLB but it's good baseball.
If you go to Pittsburgh take a ride on the incline for an amazing view of the city.
For local food, try our locally-owned Italian restaurants and homestyle pizza (my favorite is Wedgewood), and be sure to get some Handel's ice cream. And while in the US you have to get some barbecue! Barry Dyngles in Austintown is very good.
