Discover Scranton
Scranton is known for its long history in industry, attracting many Irish, German and Italian immigrants to work in its steel factories and railroads over the years. The community is well known for the Steamtown National Historic Site, which is open year-round and served by food trucks in the summer. The descendants of the immigrants that shaped Scranton have opened many upscale and casual restaurants, featuring Irish specialties such as Dubliner cheese, smoked salmon, or trout and roast mutton. Irish pubs are also popular throughout the area. Try tall glasses of chilled stout accompanied by soda bread or wheaten bread. The area's Italian influence is also well-represented in upscale restaurants offering specialties including baccalà alla lucana and frìttuli.
