Your guide to navigating the 570 food and drink scene…
The 570 City Guide is your comprehensive editorial resource for discovering where to eat, drink, and explore across the 570 area code, from Scranton to Wilkes-Barre and beyond.
Rather than treating restaurants, breweries, and bars as isolated listings, we look at cities as living food scenes, places with personality, momentum, and context. Each city guide brings together our most relevant coverage for that location, curated editorially and updated as the scene evolves.
This is where to start if you want to understand where to eat, drink, and spend your time in a specific part of the 570.
How to Use the City Guide
Each city page serves as a hub, pulling together multiple types of coverage in one place, including:
- Top 10 lists and editorial rankings
- Featured restaurant, brewery, and winery stories
- Notable openings, releases, and seasonal moments
- Events or limited-run concepts worth planning around
City-specific guides will be linked here as they are published.
City guides are not directories, and they are not exhaustive. They’re editorially curated, built around quality, relevance, and what actually matters in each location right now.
Cities We Cover
The 570 area code spans Northeastern and Central Pennsylvania, and our city coverage reflects that full footprint.
We’re rolling out city guides deliberately, starting with places where we’ve built meaningful coverage and expanding as the scene and our reporting grow.
Current city guides include:
- Scranton
- Wilkes-Barre
- Pittston
Additional cities will be added over time as coverage deepens across the region.
What Makes These Guides Different
Every city guide on 570andDown.com is shaped by the same editorial standards that guide the rest of the site:
- Coverage is earned, not paid
- Listings are curated, not promotional
- Context matters as much as rankings
- Not every place is for everyone — and that’s okay
Our goal isn’t to tell you everywhere you could go. It’s to highlight the places and moments that define a city’s food and drink identity.
For Readers and for Local Businesses
If you’re a reader, the City Guide helps you quickly get oriented: what’s established, what’s new, and what’s worth your attention.
If you’re a restaurant, brewery, or winery, city guides reflect how we think about scenes as a whole, not just individual spots. If you have legitimate food or drink news that contributes to your local scene, you can share it with our editorial team through our submission page.
