    The restaurant closed at 5 p.m. Monday, October 5, 2020 after 29 years. The company was outbid on the building’s lease. Employees were offered jobs at one of the other restaurants. I remember the one in Jeannette, we would eat in the car and take a strawberry pie home for later. The old days when there were car hops....

      I knew this location was there for quite a while, I just couldn't remember for how long. 29 years is a great run for any restaurant location, but that's the problem with these strip plazas. Most businesses don't own the land their building is sitting on. I used to go to this location back in the late 2010s when my partner worked over that way. Glad to see its being brought back to life.

    "Edgewood Towne Centre" is actually in BOTH Edgewood and Swissvale. Funny Part is the OFFICE building is in Swissvale, So when it was a manufacturing site (Union Switch & Signal division of Westinghouse Air-Brake Company) Edgewood took a nice chunk of taxes but were "fine" with the whole thing being known as the "Swissvale plant", But when the shopping center came along "Edgewood" it is! (Even the parts LIKE the Eat 'N Park) are physically IN Swissvale. Then too, the "Fox Chapel" (Waterworks) Eat 'N Park is NOT in Fox Chapel... It's in Pittsburgh (City proper).

    Eat-n-Puke. Eat-n-Park used to be the apex of Pittsburgh cuisine. Even this Eat-n-Park started after their prime. Everytime we would go in there, they would rush us out for their next party. Edgewood Town Center was built on the old Union Switch & Signal sight. Giant Eagles replaced a Shop-n-Save store in Swissvale. My sister used to work in the Dollar Tree. There used to be a Phar More that was replaced by a Busy Beaver. Last time I visited home, I saw the entire Pittsburgh area is going to pot.
    You're lucky the Edgewood police weren't around. They are fanatics there!

    Eat N Park restaurants were really cool back in the day. But they have not kept up with the competition. Last few years a lot of good restaurants have come into western Pennsylvania. Sort of how Giant Eagle is facing fierce competition now that they never had to worry about before. I still miss their Smiley Cookies though. :)
