Dave & Buster's Bound For The Block At Northway

The popular restaurant and games chain should be a significant addition to the mall.

ROSS TOWNSHIP, PA - Pittsburgh is about to get a second Dave & Buster’s restaurant and arcade. A new one is expected to open next year in The Block at Northway.

The new Dave & Buster’s will open in the old Dick’s sporting goods space, KDKA-TV reported.

Dave & Buster’s should be a key component of the reinvention of Pennsylvania’s first enclosed mall. Akron-based LRC Realty, which purchased the struggling mall at the intersection of McKnight Road and Babcock Boulevard in 2012, has been aggressively attempting to redevelop the site.
