Back in the day some of the restaurants had a sign beside their legendary cole-slaw topped burger stating “our number 2 seller”.

If you asked “what’s the number one seller?” they’d hand you a 16oz Iron City Light—on the house.

Hahaha. I fell for that the first time I went there, at the original location down in the Strip district. They didn’t give me an Iron City for free though.

Never cared much for their food. Sandwiches are too dry, but the prices were always pretty good. Sorry to hear this, I probably frequent Primanti Bros’ at least 2-4 times a year. No more.

One of my favorite Primanti Bros’ trivia questions: Who is at the center of the mural painted on the wall of the original location? The mural consists of famous Pittsburgh athletes and people. Who is the largest figure in the center of the mural? Answer: Bruno Sammartino.
