Allegheny Coffee & Tea Exchange
Start with a warm coffee and tea at Allegheny Coffee & Tea Exchange. It is open from 09:00 to 16:00, so you have plenty of time to browse their brewing supplies and grab a drink before the sun starts to set.
16:47
Walk to Point State Park (The Point) to find your spot. The park is located at the confluence of the rivers. Arrive early enough to settle in and watch the golden light begin to hit the water as the sun sets toward the WSW.
18:02
Head to Redbeard's On Sixth for a post-sunset drink. This sports bar is located just across the Clemente bridge from PNC Park, making it a convenient and popular spot for locals to unwind after enjoying the view.
Local tip
The walk from the coffee shop to the park takes about 14 minutes, and the park to the bar is another 15 minutes. The timing allows you to see the transition from golden hour to full sunset without rushing.
