Downtown location, parking in the back. Rough and tumble college bar look. Well worn floors and tables. Not a lot on tap. A verage beer, good service. Dead on a Sunday evening.

I spent a semester at WVU and this was our go to spot, so it is hard for me to rate objectively and not based on nostalgia. The food is good, they have decent beer, and the atmosphere is great for a small college town.

Very much college town brewpub vibe. Indie music playing, staff standing around chatting when the bathroom is out of paper towels at opening, etc. They did at least try to pay attention to bar patrons, somewhat. Beer selection was a bunch of hazies and highly flavored kettle sours. I got a Belgian style blonde, and it was ok. Food tasted good, but it came out cold; sure sign that servers weren't paying attention.

The burgers here are delicious. Beer selection is pretty good, and service is friendly enough. The crowd was on the young side during my visit. Overall it's worth a shot if in Morgantown. Note: there is an inexpensive parking garage just across the street.

Super cool location with a great vibe! Stopped in on my way from California to Maryland. Friendly place, with decent beers on tap (got their British Isles Pale Ale). Of course, this was pre-Covid but worth checking out if you're in the area.

Stopped here to try a quick flight on my most recent road trip. The place is in a bit of a congested area of town but was able to find a back alley parking lot to park in for the time I was there. The vibe is decent, it's dim lit inside. The brewing area is near part of the dining area which is cool to see. The service was very friendly. The selection is decent but nothing super crazy. I hadn't tried any food but definitely thought about it.

It’s open at noon on Sundays, but they can’t serve beer until 1PM due to the blue laws. I had a good luch while I was waiting. The menu is basically pub fare, but it is quite good. I had a killer Scotch Ale n’ Onion soup as a starter. Followed that up with a bratwurst with kraut on a great roll. Excellent fries on the side. The place itself is set in a really old building. Lots of old dark wood, with brick in some areas. It has a nice charm. And my server was very attentive. Definitely worth a visit.

Been here a few times. The burgers are fantastic. Always a good selection of beers. The Saison is my favorite. I see the Big XII IPA has a high rating but I haven't tried it yet. Convenient in downtown Morgantown with a separate bar side/restaurant side. Steer clear of the peanut butter beer unless you absolutely love peanut butter flavored anything. Other than that, they usually have some clever, unique offerings.
