Who doesn't love a great discount? Naturally, the Black Friday to Cyber Monday shopping weekend presents a wealth of shopping opportunities with discounted prices.
Naturally, Pittsburgh businesses and attractions are getting in on the Black Friday celebration as well.
So in this one, we thought we would share some of the best deals that we see popping up on our feeds to help you get the most out of exploring the city. From annual memberships and season passes to special releases at area breweries and distilleries, we've found some gems!
- Notes: The following is a quick summary of some of our favorite deals we have found so far. Black Friday deals tend to come out on an on-going basis and we will be updating this article over time as we find more- so check back in the lead up to (and on) Black Friday for the most up-to-date set of deals. Additional terms and conditions may apply that are not included in our summary, please read deals in full prior to purchasing. Some discounts may be available now, while other promotions may only occur on Black Friday or Cyber Monday.
- Although we're not offering a Black Friday special on our new book in 2025, we'd love it if you picked up a copy of The Pittsburgh Guidebook if you're doing any shopping as well!

Our first book, The Pittsburgh Guidebook: 175 Things to Do in Pittsburgh, is on sale now!

Special Releases at Area Breweries
Area breweries tend not to do sales for Black Friday but often do special releases to mark the special day. So if you want to take a break with a great brew, you are unlikely to find much else of the year, it is a good day to hit a favorite.
Some specials we've seen in the works include:
- Eleventh Hour Brewing will re-release their anniversary beer, Burn Your Suit, with flavored variants this Black Friday. This may be your last chance to try this one until next September!
- Dancing Gnome typically offers a release of rare beers on Black Friday, and will be having a Makers Market in 2025 too.
- Late Addition in the North Side will be releasing a barrel aged stout.
Special Releases and Prices at Area Distilleries
Many Pittsburgh distilleries are also getting in on Black Friday deals, and we have seen some gems like the following:
- Maggie's Farm Rum typically always has a Black Friday special release at 8 pm on Thanksgiving evening. Although details are not announced just yet for 2025, we hope for a Queens Share and other picks as usual!
- Liberty Pole Spirits in Washington, PA, will be releasing three barrel-finished whiskeys at their store on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving.
All-Clad Seconds Sale December 5th and 6th
Local high-end cookware producer, All-Clad, hosts an annual seconds sale at the Washington County Fairgrounds the first weekend in December. Seconds from this brand normally have minor blemishes or scratches made during production and are sold at incredibly discounted prices. We have bought all of our cookware from this one and absolutely love it!
In 2025, the All-Clad Seconds Sale will take place on December 5th and 6th at the fairgrounds at 2151 N Main St in Washington, PA.
Discounted Pittsburgh Photography by Carla Cardello
One of our favorite local photographers, Carla Cardello, is offering a couple Black Friday sales this holiday season through Cyber Monday for 20% off select prints.
So if you want to support a local Pittsburgh photographer and pick up some great art, this one is for you!
Richard DeShantz Black and Gold Membership Cards (and Bonus Gift Card Balance)
The Richard DeShantz Restaurant Group, with member restaurants Gi-Jin, Tako, Golden Gai, and more, is offering a membership club for 2026 on Black Friday. The aptly named Gold Club and Black Club is one part pre-loaded gift card (funds are available on the card to use next year) and one part reward system (with discounts on your bill, early reservation access on select dates, and more).
At this time, we don't know the details just yet, but we know a placeholder is up on their website for some form of promo all the same.
