Primanti Bros is a fine spot if you want the gimmicky heavy meat sandwich they're going to throw in front of you. There's nothing special or nuanced about it. If you're going for the tourist attraction, then absolutely go for it. You won't be wowed but you'll leave there satiated and feeling like you've checked something off the list. Nothing wrong with that - every experience doesn't need to be something magical. I wente ther after a Chiefs loss in December several years ago, drunk and whatever, and it was completely enjoyable if not very average. |

I go there once a twice a year for work. My office is technically there though I work from home in KC.
Typically I stay in the Market Square area which is just across the river from the stadium and is a good place to stay. There’s a Primanti’s on the Square, but as has been said, it’s ultimately just a touristy sandwich place. I may have built my expectations too high as I’d seen it on some sandwiches you have to try before you die kind of show back about 15 years ago and had been wanting to try it ever since. Finally got to a few years ago, and it was fine. I haven’t made a point of visiting there my last couple trips if that’s any indicator. If you like Thai, Nicky’s is solid and walkable if you are thinking about staying at the Renaissance. Sounds like we’ll be just missing each other. I’ll be getting in the evening of the 15th. I wish I’d known the Royals were in town, I might’ve came a day early. Instead I set up my flight so I can watch the Chiefs play the Bengals from Midway in Chicago. |
