2/12/2012 This isn’t just the best sports bar in Morgantown, it’s the best bar, period. They have dozens of TVs, they get every college basketball and football game, and they get every pro sports game too. Twenty ounce draft domestic beers are $2 every day, and only $1 on Sunday nights and Tuesdays. No...

12/12/2011 I am SO excited about a cupcake shop! I stopped by randomly one day and it was packed!  Sadly, they only have a small amount of cupcakes available at one time, but the two types that I tried were delicious – Pumpkin Spice (favorite) Rocky Road.  The cake was moist and the frosting...

1/24/2011 5 Check-ins Here Pizza Al’s is a city landmark. Just as Al himself is. I’m a young twenty-something, and I’ve been getting my pizza from Al all my life (he used to run another place down the street called Pizzeria Italia before opening Pizza Al’s). Al himself is pretty much a stereotype. He’s...

2/22/2009 4 photos 4 Check-ins Here Gene’s has been a fixture in Morgantown since 1944.  Cheap beer, good times, loyal regulars and hot dogs are the mainstays of this town landmark.  I come back here every time I visit home (sometimes it’s my first stop).   There is no other bar in Morgantown quite...

3/24/2011 2 photos Let’s add another place to the list “Restaurants I wish we would’ve had when I lived in Morgantown”. I remember this being some beat up take out Chinese place when I was in school so when my friend told me Lavender Cafe had taken it’s place, I wasn’t expecting that much....

5/9/2011 We followed the signs off of I79 on a whim and it was worth the detour. Friendly staff, plenty of samples and choices. I was driving so I couldn’t try everything I wanted to. Many of their wines were sweeter than I care for, so I tried a couple of their dry reds...

9/8/2008 3 photos WVU Basketball…home of Jerry West, Hot Rod Hundley, Mike Gansey, Joe Alexander and who can forget Kevin Pittsnogle. When West Virginia sucked at basketball, this place was pretty beat. The student section has always been rowdy but not until around 2003 was the Coliseum able to start selling all 14,000 seats,...

10/8/2011 Food was good. Spice level was perfect. Nice interior and atmosphere. Those things would normally give this place a 4 star rating. BUT… service was pathetic. After sitting for 15 minutes w/o a server stopping by to take drink orders (or even bring water), we had to flag down a server. 10 minutes...
