Arboretum
Nature & Parks

Located in Morgantown, West Virginia, the Core Arboretum spans 91 acres of forest and floodplain. Managed by West Virginia University, this natural escape offers over 3 miles of walking trails through a pristine Appalachian forest landscape. Visitors can explore native plant species and diverse wildlife while enjoying various difficulty levels suitable for casual walkers to serious hikers. The arboretum is also home to the Adventure WV Outdoor Education Center, which provides aerial adventure activities like the Zip-Line Canopy Tour.
What a lovely spot for an early spring wildflower walk. We visited at mid-day on a Friday. Although the parking lot is small, there were plenty of available spaces. It was a chilly day but the steep walk kept us warm. Many of the earliest wildflowers were out in the sunshine along with a napping red-tailed hawk.

Great hiking and scenery here! Love that you can feel like you’re out in the middle of nowhere when you’re right in the center of it all. They have done a lot of work keeping these trails up and labeling trees, etc. I sincerely appreciate that most people have refrained from trashing up the area, too. It appears very well-kept in the areas I’ve explored and everyone I’ve come across on the trails has been friendly.

What a gem! Filled with spring ephemerals and native trees and shrubs. Expect/prepare for some steep sections of trail. Many mature trees along the trail are labeled. Thank you to the staff and volunteers that are stewards of the arboretum and trails. Hope to return.

Really enjoyed my brief visit to the WVU Core Arboretum. I drove by a couple times during a work trip and stopped in one evening when I had some time. Great place for a walk or even a hike. There are some easy, wide trails and there there are some others that are steep with loose footing. The bottom near the river gets really soggy, but certainly worth going. Some trails definitely need a little TLC but I think the rain has washed them out. The parking lot is tiny, so you may have to park elsewhere and walk over. Overall, great and can’t wait to come back again.
Andrew — Google review
This little hidden gem will get anyone interesting in taking a walk in the woods. Multiple different trails to transport you into a forest in the middle of the city... Each trail has it own difficulty level. I would be prepared for mud, tree root, and hills on most of them. A good shoe is a must and don't forget the bug spray. There is so much to take in... the beauty of the trees, the peacefulness or the scenery, and the wildlife that comes out of no where. The trails are well marked and a few places to sit and relax along the way. There is an amphitheater that holds different types of shows, sitting there on the hill. Access to the walking trails is just off the road and it's easy in and easy to get out of.

WOW!! So glad to have stopped here while passing through Morgantown. I wanted to find a good place to get some hiking done and I’m really glad I stopped here. Paths are well marked and maintained with little to no litter left behind. Around the cliffs there are areas where one can go off the path and climb, nearer to rocks, but I highly recommend only hikers in good health with a climbing aid (walking staff, hiking poles) attempt this. There are many signs imploring hikers to stay on the marked paths. I would love to bring a bike and go on the bicycling paths. There are separate paths for cycling and hiking which I appreciate for safety. I enjoyed the couple of hours I spent here and hope to be able to come back!! Thank you to the university for keeping such a beautiful place open and free for people like me, just passing through and needing to stretch my legs and have lunch outside.

My fiancé is WVU generational alumni. A few years ago, after moving back to the East Coast, we started to attend one football game a year. The stadium is super clean; food is decent and the price for concessions is extremely affordable compared to other stadiums. So much fun. High entertainment. We love our little annual tradition on visiting the beautiful campus and stadium.

According to the college basketball reference, North Carolina has a better SRS and SOS than West Virginia. North Carolina is hands down the better team, get over it. Indiana would get in before West Virginia did, West Virginia is not a good team, they are okay. Win more games if you want to be in the NCAA tournament.

Nestled in Evansdale, Black Bear Burritos is a vibrant spot that perfectly blends delicious Mexican cuisine with an eclectic atmosphere. This casual eatery not only serves up massive burritos, quesadillas, and wraps but also features live music nearly every night, making it a lively local hangout. Diners can unleash their creativity by customizing their meals with an array of unique ingredients like kiwi salsa and garlic potatoes.
Stopped for lunch and had the Thai Bowl Game. It was absolutely amazing ♥️! New Trail Spring Lager on tap was suggested by the bartender. Hit the spot. Attentive, friendly service. Had a spacious outdoor seating area.
Debby M — Google review
Salads were great. Everything was fresh and the meat was super flavorful as well as being very tender. They're a bit expensive, but they're pretty damn big and the customization options are wild. They did forget my second dressing with one of my salads, though. :( Edit: I came back to try some of their other items. Just as the salads were, everything was fresh, juicy, and had so much flavor. The burrito was a solid size and the quesadilla was so stuffed that it was no longer a handheld food, haha. The kiwi salsa was definitely interesting too. It was good, but I think it would be a really great salad dressing rather than as a dip for chips and such. I would have liked to increase my rating to a 5, but once again, they forgot an item with my order.
John — Google review
Atmosphere – ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Very open and clean space with plenty of seating. The layout is comfortable, with a casual vibe and a full bar. Clean bathrooms and a relaxed setting make it a great place to hang out or grab a laid-back meal. Service – ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A bit confusing at first—there’s no hostess, and the large open space can leave first-timers unsure of how to order. There is a sign suggesting to grab a menu, but they weren’t easy to spot. Thankfully, an employee noticed we looked new and stepped in to explain the ordering process. He handed us menus, told us to grab a seat, and explained we could order at the counter when ready. That helpful guidance definitely saved the experience and bumped the score up. Food – ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We started with a chicken and cheese quesadilla—no frills, just the basics, with rice on the side. It came with chips and salsa, and the salsa in particular was fresh and flavorful. The quesadilla was large, well-prepared, and filling. I also had the Camarones Diaz Tacos—served on two grilled corn tortillas with smoked Gouda cheese, sriracha refried beans, light rice, lettuce mix, grilled Spanish onions, pickled jalapeños, marinated grilled chicken, and green goddess sauce. You can choose between chicken, steak, or shrimp. There’s definitely a lot going on in these tacos, but the blend of flavors worked surprisingly well. It’s a bit of a messy dish—definitely a “good messy”—but everything tasted fresh and came together nicely. ⸻ Final Verdict: Black Bear Burritos delivers a cool vibe, solid service (especially if you’re new), and fresh, creative food. Some menu items are stacked with ingredients, but they manage to make it all work. Worth a visit if you’re in Morgantown and in the mood for something a little different!

Fast Casual and Delicious! I’ve enjoyed Black Bear for many years, but this was my first experience at the Evansdale location. This place was popping for 5pm on a rainy Friday. I love the large spacious dining room. Very clean, too. We ordered a Irie Member burrito and a the Cannonbowl Run. Both delicious with the burrito on the spicy side. We added queso and guacamole with chips which are both great options with generous portions. You get your money’s worth. This place is a great value. I ordered a margarita but I’d opt for a beer next time. They have a great beer selection. I would visit again and again.

New American restaurant
Table 9 is a bright and contemporary restaurant in Morgantown, offering New American cuisine along with a selection of wine, craft beer, and cocktails. What sets it apart is its deck seating that provides a romantic view of the Monongahela River. The restaurant prides itself on using farm-fresh ingredients from local farmers to create unique dishes, accommodating various dietary restrictions with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options.
Certainly one of the better "nice" places to eat in Morgantown. Absolutely great outdoor seating, especially on a nice sunny day. Delicious food, good prices on salads, sandwiches, and appetizers. Entrees are more expensive and totally worth it. Minus 1 star for the indoor table texture, they were kind of waxy/sticky and in need of a refresh.

Beautiful restaurant along the river. Inventive dishes that were very tasty! Drinks were good too. They accidentally brought out the wrong drink but quickly fixed it (though took a while to come in the first place but we weren’t in a rush so not a problem).

The food was great!! Spent a decent amount of time here and enjoyed the river. The only thing I have to mention is all the spiders, because they were everywhere. Above you, below you, crawling next to you and on the back of your chair. Huge huge spiders. Obviously this is on the patio but I went inside to get away from them for a second and I saw one on the ceiling inside. Maybe I’m the only one with an issue but I definitely will not be sitting outside again at this place.

The atmosphere was awesome, laid back and comfortable. The overhead fans kept the warmth from the pizza fire dispersed nicely but let an enveloping warmth to the atmosphere. We ordered the spinach dip and pizza with pepperoni and sausage. The artichoke dip had a heavy garlic spice which was delightful and added a nice flavor. The crust of the pizza crust was fresh and crisp and the toppings were of equal taste. If we’re in the area again we’ll def make the stop again!

I stopped in here in a Thursday evening for a bite to eat while traveling. I sat at the bar. There was no wait for a seat there but there was a little bit of a delay with ordering. The bartender seemed to be a bit overwhelmed so I waited a few minutes for a menu and then a few more for a drink and then a few more to order food. He was very apologetic to the few of us sitting at the bar. They had two sour beers on the menu but both kegs had kicked so I had an IPA. I ordered an apple butter pulled chicken sandwich. I waited a bit for that to come out. There was a lot of chicken. It was ok. It came with a bag of Miss Vickie’s chips. It was similar to a sandwich that would would get from a bbq joint. There was a live band inside near the bar. They sounded good. The atmosphere was casual. They have an outdoor patio that was packed and I believe it was the weekend of the college’s graduation so they at be were busier than usual but this was my first time here so not sure. There was a very tiny parking lot that was full so I parked near the walking trail that runs along the patio and back of the building. That was a metered parking lot using Parkmobile and I crossed a small walking bridge on the trail to get to the building. Prices were reasonable. Overall it was an ok visit.

Wish I could give a 4.5 ⭐️ Service was good! All my questions were answered and server was very helpful! Wait time was excellent! The pizza ( Fire on the Mountain) was REALLY delicious as was the beer cheese and chips! The house salad was not great. For the $8 price of a small, I was really disappointed that it was wilted and soggy. It was a nice size though just not very fresh. Will definitely be back as I loved everything else.

Absolutely delicious pizza!! We also ordered a flight of margaritas which were delish-but maybe just a smidge too much ice. But flavors (lime, lime jalapeño and berry) were just amazing!!! Two house salads also complimented our meals-the ranch was thick creamy and tasted homemade. Salad were decent sized portions. The pizza was hot and perfect. We dined outside. I appreciate the ambiance inside, but it was a tiny bit dark. I do love what they were doing with the light theme (copper) but it just didn’t play out with effective lighting. Cool touch-but too dark. Great service. The beer dolly sods was an absolute bust- definitely not tasty! I felt like it was a beer you had to chew-but order the margaritas and you’ll be happy!

This is for the Morgantown by the river location. Wait time from door to table was very short. Sat outside in a corner table. Basically forgotten about while tables full of locals celebrating homecoming got served. Both beers I had were sub par. Some of the worst beers I have had at a microbrewery. The blonde and the amber 🤮. Couldn't finish the amber. Flatbread pizzas were decent. But my daughter, who has never not eaten a chicken nugget/tender, couldn't eat her order of dino nuggets. Nothing ruins a day trip like a poor dining experience.

We waited 15-20 minutes to get our drink order taken. Not even like the waiter didnt know we were there since the girl that sat us ended up being the one to take our order. We then waited close to an hour to get our food. The place wasn't busy either, maybe 4 other tables and two waiters. We'd also ordered fries and never got them so we asked nicely if they could be comped from the bill. Instead of taking them off the bill the waitress came over with a box of cold fries and threw them on our table when we were leaving. We hadn't said anything rude or confrontational but we could see her walking across the restaurant staring at us and cursing under breath. The food was fine, though I had received an obviously frozen burger. There were only 4 of us, there was no reason we should have waited that long especially since it wasn't busy. Waitress didnt talk to us at all even when taking our orders. She was unnecessarily rude and went to other people to complain about us. We were quiet and respectful even after she threw the fries at us.

Good beer, good bartender. Food was ok. Hubby got fried chicken & I got the K-BBQ. Chicken was good. K-BBQ was quite unpalatable-just tasted like under-spiced old meat that had been sitting around a while. Wound up just sharing my hubby's meal & eating my side salad. Have worked many years in the food industry-just feel a small gesture would have been nice-comp me a beer, give me even $3 off my meal since all I had was a small side salad but, still was charged full price when I only took 1 bite of my sandwich. Bartender did ask if I wanted something else; I just didn't at that point because unsure if I would like it. The place was clean, decent selection-but, probably wouldn't go back.

Visiting from out of state and a friend recommended Sargasso. The first look at the menu and I was ready to leave due to lack of choices. The choices offered looked good so decided to stay. Glad we did. Ordered the special of the night-linguini with pesto sauce. Husband had the chicken. We both said first bite was amazing! Full of flavor. Meals prepared by one chef. Friend says he goes there because of the chef. We now know why. Prices are a little high but wow, what a great place for date night or anything special. What a treat.

Definitely has gone downhill as time has gone by. Lack luster food with terrible service. The presentation of food is great but the taste of things or quality have been disappointing. They do have some occasional amazing different dishes but mostly just over priced.

Very cute place with wonderful food. They have a limited lunch menu that is delicious. I would recommend maybe a half a sandwich and soup/salad deal. The BLT and tuna melt were amazing!

We came in for Thanksgiving, as they were doing a buffet, and we had people in from out of town. The food was really good and the service was almost perfect. We had 4 kids with us (2 under a year), and they were great with the kids. It was a little pricey per person, but it was a holiday, so totally understandable. Our issue with service was that since it was a buffet, our plates should've been cleared, but we had a stack of them constantly. The other issue was when our server came to ask about our bill. He basically made us feel like he wanted us to hurry up and leave. He told us, "Are you ready for the bill so you can go?" It was a little rude, so we all packed up to head out. Other than that, it was a good meal and we look forward to going back for a good meal.

We live about an hour away and drove to Sargasso to meet friends from Morgantown. The food was great, I had the pork chop and my wife had the crab cakes. We also had some charcutier and cheese boards for appetizers. There was 7 of us and we also enjoyed some very good red wine. Along those lines, they had a very nice wine selection to choose from. Our waiter, Jack, did a fantastic job. He was very attentive and despite having a rambunctious group, he didn't make a single mistake. Definitely recommend.
