Scranton, Pennsylvania Travel Guide
Where to stay, how to get around, what to eat, and everything else you need to plan your trip.
City Overview
Scranton is a mid-sized Pennsylvania city of about 76,000 people that punches above its weight for sports hosting. Known nationally as the setting for The Office, this former coal mining hub has reinvented itself as a tournament destination with solid facilities and affordable accommodations. The city sits in the heart of the Pocono Mountains region, giving visiting teams easy access to both urban amenities and outdoor recreation.
The sports scene here is surprisingly robust for a city this size. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (Yankees Triple-A affiliate) baseball draws crowds to PNC Field, while youth and amateur tournaments fill weekends at complexes throughout the metro area. The city has that authentic small-town Pennsylvania feel – unpretentious, hardworking, and sports-crazy – without the big city hassles or prices.
Getting Around
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton International Airport (AVP) is your closest option, about 20 minutes south of downtown, though it's limited to a few carriers. Most teams fly into Newark or Philadelphia and drive – both are roughly 2 hours away. Interstate 81 runs right through the city north-south, while Interstate 380 connects east toward the Poconos and I-80.
You'll want rental cars here. Uber and Lyft exist but can be spotty, especially for larger groups or multiple stops. The County of Lackawanna Transit System (COLTS) runs local buses, but they're not practical for tournament schedules. Most sports venues are 10-25 minutes from downtown hotels, and parking is generally free and abundant – a nice change from bigger cities.
Where to Stay
Downtown Scranton offers the most hotel options and puts you near restaurants and attractions, though you'll drive to most sports venues. The Hilton Scranton & Conference Center and Hampton Inn & Suites Scranton downtown are solid team-friendly choices with parking and breakfast.
For sports-focused stays, consider Dickson City (north of downtown) near the Viewmont Mall area – close to several sports complexes and loaded with chain hotels like Holiday Inn Express, Fairfield Inn, and Hampton Inn. The Moosic area puts you near PNC Field if you're in town for RailRiders games. Clarks Summit, just north of the city, offers newer hotels and easy highway access to venues throughout the region.
Sports & Recreation
PNC Field in Moosic is the crown jewel – a beautiful 10,000-seat ballpark that hosts the RailRiders and numerous tournaments. Marywood University and University of Scranton both have quality facilities that host youth and adult tournaments year-round. The Toyota SportsPlex in nearby Wilkes-Barre handles a lot of basketball and volleyball action.
Soccer teams should know about McDade Park, which has multiple fields and hosts regional tournaments. Riverside Park covers baseball and softball with several diamonds. The area also sees plenty of wrestling, track, and swimming events at local high schools like Scranton High School and West Scranton High School. Ice hockey and figure skating happen at Toyota SportsPlex and Revolution Ice Centre in Pittston.
Things to Do
You can't visit Scranton without acknowledging The Office connection. The Electric City Trolley Museum downtown runs tours, and you'll spot filming locations throughout the city. Steamtown National Historic Site is genuinely cool – a working railroad museum with train rides and exhibits that actually engage kids and adults.
For active teams with time to kill, Montage Mountain offers skiing in winter and an adventure park with zip lines and mountain coasting in warmer months. Lake Scranton provides a nice walking trail around the reservoir. Nay Aug Park has hiking trails, a small zoo, and waterfalls that photograph well for team social media. The Lackawanna Coal Mine Tour in nearby McDade Park takes you 300 feet underground – unique experience that teams remember.
Food & Drink
Scranton takes its food seriously, especially pizza and Italian-American classics. Sabatini's downtown serves massive portions of solid Italian fare perfect for team dinners. Cooper's Seafood House is a local institution known for fresh seafood and steaks. For pizza, Revello's Pizza and Maroni's Brick Oven & Brewing Co. both deliver quality pies that can feed hungry teams.
Quick team meals are easy with plenty of chain options, especially around Dickson City where you'll find Chipotle, Panera, Five Guys, and more clustered near the mall. Coney Island Lunch downtown is famous for Texas wieners – small hot dogs with a distinctive meat sauce that's pure local culture. The Bog Turtle Tavern offers elevated pub food with good vegetarian options. Don't miss trying pierogies – this area does them right at places like Adezzo or even gas station delis.
Shopping & Entertainment
The Shoppes at Montage in Moosic offers big-box shopping with Target, Dick's Sporting Goods, and restaurants like Texas Roadhouse – good for team dinners. Viewmont Mall in Dickson City is your traditional indoor mall with department stores and a food court. The Marketplace at Steamtown downtown has local shops and eateries in a renovated historic building.
For team entertainment, Regal Dickson City and Circle Drive-In Theatre (seasonal) handle movies. Laser Tag of NEPA in Dickson City works for team bonding, as does Bowlerland Lanes for old-school bowling. Mohegan Sun Pocono in nearby Wilkes-Barre has restaurants, gaming, and entertainment for adult groups. Downtown Scranton's small but developing arts district around Penn Avenue offers local bars and live music venues.
Weather & Packing
Scranton gets all four seasons with typical Northeast weather patterns. Summers (June-August) are warm and humid with highs in the 70s-80s, perfect for outdoor tournaments but pack rain gear – afternoon thunderstorms are common. Fall brings beautiful foliage and comfortable temperatures but can be unpredictable – layer up. Winters are cold and snowy with temperatures often below freezing, so pack serious cold-weather gear for outdoor sports.
Spring tournaments can be tricky – it might be 45 degrees and rainy or 70 degrees and sunny. Pack layers and waterproof jackets regardless of season. Many venues have both indoor and outdoor facilities, so bring appropriate gear for both. Peak tournament season runs March through November, with summer weekends booking up fastest. Winter indoor tournaments are popular but less crowded.
Local Tips
Parking downtown is mostly metered during business hours but free evenings and weekends – perfect for tournament schedules. Most sports complexes and hotels offer free parking. Gas up before tournaments – stations near sports venues can be sparse. Download ParkMobile for downtown parking, though you probably won't need it much.
Local grocery chains Gerrity's and Weis are good for team snacks and drinks – cheaper than hotel convenience stores. Sheetz gas stations are everywhere and serve decent fast food 24/7, plus they're a regional obsession worth experiencing. Traffic isn't bad by big-city standards, but allow extra time during University of Scranton events or RailRiders games. The locals are generally friendly and helpful – don't hesitate to ask for directions or restaurant recommendations.
