One of a kind store. Like 80 vendors with a wide variety locally hand crafted pieces. From paintings to hand crafted jewelry to crochet to gallery level canvas paintings. Locally crafted soaps, Pittsburgh souvenirs and hand painted gift bags.This store has everything you need and more. Especially for the holiday season. I went during their Wrap It Up! Craft show and got $8 candles, postcards and a wreath for my grandma. They had a hot cocoa bar and a sweet young gentleman wrapped everything for me at their gift wrap station.Amazing overall!! Corner of Stebbin and Brookline, 826 Brookline Blvd.

Im so excited I found this store! This place is awesome and welcoming. I met the owner, Tom on my first visit and he was super nice. AND they are dog friendly!! The items inside are beautiful and unique, perfect for that person who is difficult to buy for or who appreciates hand-craftsmanship. I really liked this one booth called Enid Enchanted. I will definitely be returning for some one-of-a-kind items!!!

The store has lots of beautiful & creative unique all handmade goodies. From small trinkets, paintings, puzzles, gift bags and greeting cards to chocolates, cookies, honey and much more. Great place for any craft and art enthusiast as well tourists looking for a one of a kind keepsake or gift. Lots of different vendors of all ages. Great place to go and support small businesses and crafters.

I love browsing around and marveling at the creativity and skill on display! The range of products is terrific and there is truly something for everyone. I also love the commitment to supporting inclusive causes within our community. I have a little stockpile of my own art and I’m working on getting up the nerve to try being a vendor.

Really wish this store would do a MUCH better job with cleaning their sidewalks, especially the sloping side street, Stebbins. It *is* their responsibility, not to mention how rude & inconsiderate the ownership is towards myself, running my practice above this business. I'm sure the wares are fine, and the artists & crafters who labor for merchandise deserve better, but when the posted sign on the door reads, "Dogs Welcome, People Tolerated", take it both literally and seriously.

I loved going here to explore the options for my business to be capable to vend my products out of a store front. The place was so nice, the people were pleasant, the store set up was neat and tidy to have so many business owners and their products all selling in one place.

Great store. Around 100 different vendors with a wide variety of gift items, many of which are hand crafted by local artists and crafters. There are so many one of a kind items made by hand, ranging from paintings to hand crafted jewelry to crochet to a lamp made of antlers and beer bottles. Locally crafted soaps, artistic maps of local neighborhoods, and so much more.Don't let the plain exterior fool you. This is a store with amazing gifts for friends and family, or even for yourself.It's on Penn Avenue, just off the 31st St. Bridge. Free parking available in the lot.**Full disclosure, I liked it so much that I recently got my wife a booth there for her hand crafted crochet animals (included among the photos).

My doggo and I stopped by on a Tuesday afternoon during their yappy hour. My pup received a treat, and we walked around the pet friendly store. We purchased some really great treats that Quincy loved and a new toy that she actually hasn't destroyed yet! Absolutely love this store!!

I had a fantastic experience here shopping for Christmas! The guy that was there was very very helpful and I found the perfect grinch wreath for my house. I will definitely be returning for other occasions and for future gift needs. They have a great variety of all different items. Very nice shop.

This place is so unique! One of my favorite spots on the strip. The gentleman working was so kind and helpful and even guided us to other local spots and food joints. I believe over 80 vendors have their items in this spot so there is something unique for everyone. Very beautifully hand crafted cups, jewelry, wreaths and so much more. There are extra rooms with even more stuff to see tucked away. Would be great for holiday shopping or if you just want to find something unique. Pleasant experience I hope to see this business thrive and expand!

I saw an ad on Facebook for this store and was surprised that I had never heard of it before. I went down to check it out with the idea of becoming a "pop-up" vendor for one of their events. When I got there it was much bigger inside than I anticipated, with 80-90 vendors. I like that it was spacious with extra rooms to be found off to the side. There's a good variety of goods with some really talented crafters and artists. It was a weekend and I got to meet the owner that first visit and learned of his support for things like animal support groups (Paws Across Pittsburgh), kids in the arts, and women in general. I noticed that he greeted every customer and asked them if it was their first time, and where they heard of his shop...and then he left them alone to shop. This was all so appealing to me that I became a vendor there myself. I am rating my experience with Steel City Craft Emporium from that first visit as a customer, although my rating as a now associated vendor would also be five stars!
