How the Eat guide works
Greensburg Times
How the Greensburg Times Eat guide is written, which sources it uses, and how a listing is updated.
What the guide is
Eat is the Greensburg Times list of places to eat in Westmoreland County. It is for someone who wants an address, the hours, and the street. It is not a score.
The guide has nine downtown districts. Each one is a walkable set of blocks drawn by Greensburg Times. A district is not the whole town, and Route 30 is not a district.
- Downtown Greensburg
- Downtown Latrobe
- Ligonier
- Irwin
- Scottdale
- Mt. Pleasant
- Jeannette
- Vandergrift
- New Kensington & West Newton
What gets listed
A place can be a restaurant, a bar that serves food, a brewery, a cafe, a bakery, a food truck, or another spot whose business is food. A drink-only bar stays off the guide. So does a grocery that does not serve meals.
On a district page, places are grouped by the street we filed them on. A listing shows the address and the hours we have. It shows a phone, website, or menu when the business publishes one. A food truck shows a service area or dated stops. Those stops are a schedule, not a live location.
Where the facts come from
We use official public sources: a town or county page, a license record, or the business's own site. Greensburg Times writes the listing in our own words from those sources.
We do not paste text from Yelp, Google, a delivery app, or another news outlet. A published listing shows the day a person last checked it. That day means someone compared the page with the sources. It does not mean every line is still true tonight.
How a listing is updated
A new place stays in draft until a person checks it. Drafts are not on the public site.
An owner can claim a listing. We approve a claim after a short video call with Greensburg Times. A verified owner can then correct hours and specials. A change to the name, the address, or the description is reviewed before it goes on the page.
If a listing is wrong, use the corrections form. We read what you send. Sending it does not by itself change the page.
A special is shown only between its start and its end. When that window closes, it comes off the page.
What the guide does not do
There are no star ratings, no reviews, and no paid place in the list. We do not charge a business to move it up. We also do not promise that a search engine or an assistant will cite a page.
Check with the business before you go. Hours change.
