The Boston Beanery is a pretty famous local restaurant in and around Morgantown, WV. In some ways, the Beanery is synonymous with Morgantown and WVU. People talk about the Beanery and love to grab food and drinks there while they’re in town. The High Street location in this review is the original location that has spawned a pretty successful regional chain of six locations in West Virginia, Pennsylvania and Virginia.
The Boston Beanery is modeled in tribute of the pubs of old town Boston. This being the original location and at the mercy of a constant barrage of college kids, signs of wear are showing all around. The place feels small, cramped, and frankly a little dingy. But…also frankly…all that contributes to a certain irresistible charm.
I’ve enjoyed each of my visits and I’ve almost always been happy with my meals. The menu is vast and sure to please anyone. But enough about the place…what about the wings, you may ask. Well….you saw the “almost always” a few sentences ago, right? The wings I had on this night were not up to par with the rest of the Beaneries quality menu…and more importantly…they were no where close to what a good wing should be! What went wrong?
