Wheeling Island Hotel-Casino-Racetrack is a vibrant destination that perfectly blends the excitement of gaming with comfortable accommodations. While I didn't personally stay at the hotel, my brother had an exhilarating experience at the casino, where he enjoyed a rollercoaster of wins and losses. The friendly staff and helpful dealers made his first time playing Craps enjoyable and stress-free.
Great variety of games. It wasn't super busy when we went on a late Sunday night, so it was easy to find a seat at the slot machines I like to play. The slots were giving and taking pretty well, but came out with a little extra in the end. The complementary drink machine is a great addition to the visit. I just wish they weren't out of the raspberry tea I like, on that specific day, but not a big deal. Enjoyed my visit and will return sometime soon!

Casino is nice. They seem to be expanding and doing some work so I’ll be interested in seeing how that goes. I love greyhounds and highly recommend adopting one from there if you get a chance. They are terrific low maintenance pets and great companions. Slot machines were good and we were able to play a long time and the drinks were very reasonably priced. It’s in a bit of an odd location but a lot of fun

I am here in one of there rooms right now. I would suggest spending the night in the local area and take an Uber to bring you to the casino. We paid way too much money for this room. It is just a standard room. It was supposed to be a riverview, which you can barely see the river. There is one big bath towel, the rest are a child's sized. They give us one little bottle of shampoo, body wash, and conditioner for a couple. No place to hang a towel or washcloth. The room has a gross smell to it. The ice machine was broke. A coffee bar was on the 3rd floor, which we are on the fifth. We went to get coffee, no creamer, and barely any coffee left. This is the only thing you will receive free. Not worth the almost 400.00 I spent for a room. Never again!

We went to Wheeling Island on our first girls trip reunion with childhood friends. Two of us are experienced with casinos and 2 were not. I think now we have 4 Wheeling Island fans. The buffet was absolutely amazing. The slots were plenty and had most of my favorites and the dog races reminded me of trips there with my dad so many years ago. We had so much fun that we are making it an annual trip.

Always a blast and there are a wide variety of games and machines. Staff are very helpful. The atmosphere is very beautiful and comfortable. I think my favorite part about it honestly is the beautiful waterfall and the escalator is pretty badass too. Definitely be prepared to spend money tho… as for parking there is tons of parking. Also features an expensive buffet and hotel which I’ve never attended yet. Environment is very clean and for the most part people leave u alone and let u do ur thang. Valet parking is available

This has to be one of the absolute worst casinos that I been to. The layout is very strange. The selection and variety of games here is terrible. Anyone who believes Wheeling Island Casino has a good variety must have never been to any other casino. The payouts are disgustingly bad. $20 bet with a $1 denomination and only winning less than $100 feels like theft. Anyone who knows anything about slots knows that is practically unheard of. $1400 lost with not even being able to come close to even getting half of my money back. All of the jackpots are very, very low. Maybe this place is just for small spenders and low betters. I will say, the Friday buffet was very good. I have certainly walked out of casinos down money before, but never an experience like this without being able to win a single reasonable bonus. Thankfully I live over an hour away from this location so there will most likely never be a reasonable reason for me to return. Staff, however, were accommodating when I was setting up my first time player at this location. I always wait at least 24 hours to leave a bad review to see if my mood and outlook has changed, but it hasn’t.

Im not even sure how this place affords to leave the lights on, wait there not on. Its the darkest casino I have visited. Lots of the machines are off dont waste your time driving here its a ghost town, nothing worth seeing here, they havent even tried to make this place worth your time. Very disappointed. Get with the program offer people the crab legs again, some good music or at least turn the games on. When you offer people willing to come nothing there going to find somewhere else to spend there money.

Kiosk only when ordering food. It was a very bad program. Food was precooked and cold. Rooms lack basics like coffee,fridge and microwave. You have to fight for coffee in the morning on one floor. Service was very 🥶 cold. Was better before the remodeling.

Arenas & Stadiums
WesBanco Arena is a vibrant sports arena located along the banks of the Ohio River in downtown Wheeling, West Virginia. It has been a popular destination for various events and is currently home to the Wheeling Nailers Hockey Organization. The arena hosts a range of activities, from ECHL hockey games to indoor football matches and even special events like performances by the Harlem Globetrotters. Visitors praise the stadium for its cleanliness, excellent seating arrangements, and overall fan-friendly atmosphere.
This is a really nice stadium with a great fan base! The bathrooms were really clean, and the seating was set up to where there wasn't a bad seat in the house! This was my first time coming to this stadium and watching the Wheeling Nailers. It was a great home opener win, and the game was super exciting! I'm used to going to the Pittsburgh penguins game, but the way this game was and intermissions are ran, you really feel like you're part of the team as opposed to another person in the crowd. I was engaged from start to finish from the music played to the way the intermissions include the crowd, I really enjoyed my experience here and will most definitely be returning for another Nailers game! It is family friendly, and the crowd doesn't get out of hand even with them selling alcohol there. It was worth the hour drive to see this team play, and I look forward to returning!
Melanie P — Google review
WesBanco Arena offers a solid event experience with a few notable pros and cons. On the positive side, the seating layout ensures excellent views of the action from nearly every seat in the stadium, making it easy to enjoy the event. However, there are a few areas for improvement. The lack of cup holders in the seating area can be inconvenient, especially for those juggling drinks and snacks. Additionally, the seats themselves offer limited legroom, which might make longer events less comfortable for taller attendees. The most significant downside, though, is the post-event parking situation. Exiting the parking garage was chaotic, with no personnel directing traffic. This led to long delays and frustration for many attendees. A more organized approach to managing traffic flow would make a significant difference. Overall, while the arena has its strengths, addressing these logistical and comfort issues would enhance the overall experience.

Fun atmosphere older building with renovations outside. Super garage next door. Good selection of local favorite foods plus chain food chik-fil-a. Pepsi products. Some seating seems odd for hockey at least. Great crowd. For sensory sensitive very very loud acoustics.

What fun, small arena but nice as you can see everything going on. The bathrooms were always clean and food in drinks in close proximity. Saw the Miners play, box office staff were super friendly and helpful in choosing my seats.
Yvonne F — Google review
Sat pretty close to the stage, on folding chairs. It was extremely tight, especially when all the seats were filled. I could easily imagine situation turning dangerous because of how the seats were connected and everyone was so packed in. Also, the sound of the arena wasn't great for a concert. I gave 2 stars because the refreshments were cheap and the employees friendly.
E.A. P — Google review
Very nice arena, went for a nailers hockey game. Family friendly and lots of fun. Great good options. Clean and lots of history on display. They really get the crowd involved and make it a fun experience.
Savannah P — Google review
I've been to multiple wheeling nailers games and I have never had a bad experience.you do have to buy tickets outside and then go in, they do have a wheelchair accessible entrance but there are multiple flights of stairs once you get in and I believe that there are no ramps. The arena itself is very clean and organized and I have never got lost. They also have multiple score boards so you can see the score easily. Also the very back row seats are cheaper and I actually prefer them because you can get a good view and they do have bars where you can drink and watch the game. There is also plenty of parking outside and if you ever get a chance I highly recommend a hockey game for a family or personal experience. I guarantee you will have fun!

Later Alligator, located at 2145 Market Street in Wheeling, West Virginia, is a trendy bar and restaurant known for its cozy atmosphere and delicious food. The menu offers a variety of options including soups, salads, sandwiches, and the real highlight - a wide selection of crepes ranging from sweet to savory. The quaint room with brick accents and art on the walls provides a laid-back setting to enjoy your meal or grab drinks with friends.
I’ve been coming here for about five years, and it’s still one of my favorite places to go in Wheeling. It’s a unique spot with great service and delicious food. Their curry sauce is one of the best I’ve ever had. I usually get the Over-the-Edge tacos, but honestly, everything on the menu is good. The restaurant has a great vibe and really cool décor. They also have outdoor seating, and it’s a great place whether you’re dining in or taking food to go—I’ve done both, and it’s always a great experience. Even the bathroom is decorated in a fun and unique way, with license plates from all over the country. I’ve added some pictures so you can check it out!

My initial impression of the restaurant wasn’t great, but it grew on me a little. When I entered, it took a while to get seated, and the interior felt somewhat small. However, the unique decor was definitely a positive aspect. I ordered a lemon drop cocktail, but it had very little alcohol and tasted more like water—so I didn’t order a second one. For my entrée, I chose the Wallie because of the many options available. I was thoroughly impressed and ended up finishing the entire dish. It was a fantastic recommendation from my waitress.

This was a great find on the first night of our weekend in Wheeling - it might be one of the best dinners I've had. There was a bit of a wait to get in, but down the street was a little Friday evening festival so we spent the time listening to the music and window shopping. My husband and I split 2 savory crepes (the Crepe Escape, and the Crepe Shoot) and one sweet crepe (Blueberry Hill). I would be hard pressed to pick between the two crepes, the flavors on both were amazing. For the sweet Crepe we substituted honey instead of maple syrup because I am not a maple fan - it was absolutely amazing. The whipped cream was not too sweet and was a great compliment to the brie and blueberries. Delicious. We will definitely be back!

This market has a lot of history in the city. You’ll find a combination of small businesses between food and crafts as well as homemade goods for sale. It has a unique blend of an open-air market, though it’s all under roof and behind glass except for businesses with window panes that open to outside. It is non-smoking, and there are several seating areas as well as restrooms.

Jacqui A — Google review
We love this place. It’s wonderful to mix well thought out grocery items with locally grown produce. The added art and curated goods are lovely too. It’s truly a wonderful place that communicates well with their patrons and has a genuine interest in providing groceries and items their customers want. The market skews toward more healthy, organic, and locally produced items which is a huge positive and should be applauded. But with that comes less wholesale and large box purchase options that bring prices down, so it’s a more expensive way to shop for groceries and something our family can’t afford to do very often despite wanting to support this fabulous place. We hope to continue to try and visit the Wheeling Centre Market for local produce, gift items, and more as we can! More people should visit and purchase great items from the Wheeling Centre Market and that may help ensure affordable prices alongside great products for all and support a place that is thoughtful and intentional with the curation of their products.

Went on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Most of the street shops were closed which was disappointing. Centre Market itself was also pretty disappointing. First off it was filthy, the dining tables appeared to be left dirty from 1979, the floor was so nasty my Service Dog wouldn't lay under the table and I didn't make her!! We had lunch at Colemans Fish Market. Another loser!! It too was filthy, the floor had not been cleaned in weeks!! They had not been open long so no excuse for that. Coleman food was worse than the appearance of the establishment. 18.75$$ for 2 greasy fish sandwiches on smashed, stale, wonder bread.. Really Colemans?? We ended up trashing that nasty lunch!! I will not be back!!

Pizza restaurant
Vocelli Pizza, an East Coast-based chain, offers a delectable selection of artisanal pizzas and Italian sandwiches and salads. Renowned for its exceptional quality, their thin-crust pizzas boast a slightly crispy bottom and well-balanced sauce. Adorned with small pepperoni that transform into delightful crispy bowls, this pizza is nothing short of awesome. Not only is the taste phenomenal, but the prices are also affordable.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ THANK YOU to Vocelli’s Pizza in Wheeling for being the real MVP of our birthday party! Not only did they hook us up with a sweet discount, but the pizza was so good it practically disappeared the moment we opened the boxes. I’m convinced they put magic in the crust. The staff was super friendly and didn’t even judge how much pizza we ordered. 10/10 would party (and eat) with them again. Use them for your next get together! You won’t regret it. ❤️🍕🎉

We were so very proud to offer Vocelli Pizza from Wheeling WV to our guests this evening at Benwood Pool. Everyone loved it. It was a successful and fun-filled event. They delivered 13 large pizzas, breadsticks and Cannolis which made it easier for us. Can’t thank them enough for the friendly service and truly delicious home style pizza. We give them 2 thumbs up and highly recommend to give them a try…you won’t be disappointed. We’ll be using them again! Compliments to the Chefs!! 🍕🥰

We ordered an order of alfredo and a large cheese pizza. I'm a member of the rewards program and have ordered pizza here for a long time, and part of why we like it here is that the staff is generally nice and the pizza is so yummy and very cheesy. We noticed the pizza we received was definitely smaller than usual, and very bare. You could see more tomato sauce and bubbles than you could see cheese. We measured it with a ruler and it was 12" in some spots, 13" in other spots. Large pizzas are supposed to be 14". It was given to us in an xl box, but the tape measure showed it didn't even measure up to a large. Maybe if it was otherwise stellar and cheesy like normal vocellis, we would have shrugged and been ok with it, but it was so dry and scarce with cheese, that we tried calling the restaurant. We spoke to a lady and told her what happened and then asked to speak to the manager, and then they hung up the phone. We called back multiple times immediately and they would not pick up. We drove all the way down there, and the manager told us that we are "seeing it wrong because it's in an xl box." We told him we measured it, but he didn't care and ignored us. We also told him that this is much less cheese than normal. Again - this pizza was only like 50% covered by cheese. He said "that's the normal cheese that we always put on" and then when we asked "well can we have some more, because this is never what our pizzas from here look like," he grabbed a handful of cheese with his hand, threw it on our now-cold pizza, closed the box, and said "look now you have EXTRA CHEESE" and scoffed at us. Super unprofessional and honestly really disappointing, because we have always had good experiences here, but now we'll just go somewhere else and have others do the same because the staff couldn't even be remotely respectful. We are not stuck up Karens by any means, some of us literally used to work in pizza shops, and just honestly wanted them to remake it, but they treated us like they thought we were idiots for asking. It was embarrassing. I have pictures of the pizza with a tape measure for size, and I have pictures of what it looked like when the manager angrily threw cheese on the pizza and gave it back to us raw.

Seafood market
Coleman's Fish Market in Wheeling is a popular spot known for its giant fish sandwich. The casual establishment often has long lines, especially for the famous fish sandwich, which is served battered on white bread. If you're looking for other dishes, there's a shorter special line available. The restaurant offers quick service and impresses visitors with its hot and fresh sandwiches, along with piping hot fries. It's a must-visit destination in Wheeling for delicious seafood fare.
Simple and delicious freshly fried fish sandwich - don't forget to order tartar sauce! The market selections look delicious as well along with the other market vendors. Coleman's is a must stop when we pass through Wheeling.

I finally made it out to Coleman's. I had the fish sandwich, deviled crab, and clam boat. They were very good and made the trip definitely worthwhile.
John W — Google review
Coleman's is absolutely INSANE for the price. Definitely follow the advice of others + order your fish sandwich with the bread on the side so it stays crispier + allows you to keep some for later munchies. 🤭 The alligator soup was okay, but I don't think I'd get it again. Ditto on the cole slaw. Sweet + not super memorable for me. Mac + cheese was very soft in texture, but the taste was on point. I couldn't stop eating it. Would get the mac again. 👍 Fries were a solid side too. The deviled crab had a lot of filler/flavors, but it tasted pretty good. It's worth splitting with someone or getting for yourself for later. All-in-all, Coleman's is definitely worth a stop if you find yourself anywhere in the area. 💯💯💯

I don't normally eat sea food but my aunt tricked me into eating here and honestly it was super good. Everything was fresh and hot and super delicious. The environment is so friendly as well.

Coleman’s Fish Market is hands down one of the best spots in Wheeling, WV! Their fresh fish sandwiches and hometown service are unbeatable.

A must-visit whether you live here or are just passing through!

Love this place as they always have a great selection of fresh seafood. I'm not crazy about their fish sandwich though. The white fish is good and they are not at all stingy on tgeirportions, but their breading is very lacking in flavor. Pretty bland but my husband, like thousands of others, loves it. The building is absolutely adorable. It really draws you in. There are other food stands in the building as well and I am dying to try one of them sometime. An absolute must for your fresh seafood needs, such as cioppino.

The venue also boasts pool tables and multiple large-screen TVs for sports enthusiasts. Families will appreciate the variety on offer; from hearty grilled chicken dinners to tasty burgers and fries.
Without a doubt, River City is the best place to see a show in Wheeling, West Virginia. A stunning multipurpose venue, complete with fantastic food, a large drink selection, great concert sound and the BEST bands that the Ohio Valley has to offer. Also a great place to grab a drink before and after a Wheeling Nailers Hockey game being just a half block away from Wesbanco Arena.

Food was great. Service was not. I wouldn't even consider them that busy, but waited 30 minutes for a drink. If this were the first time, it wouldn't be a big deal, but it's consistent here, unfortunately. Always the last choice when I'm in Wheeling for a game, and that won't be changing tonight.

Food isn’t good anymore, it’s just your local frozen bar food now. My wife was served rice that was hard enough to break your teeth. The steak I had didn’t taste fresh and was chewy. My daughters fish basket was just frozen fish tenders and the coleslaw tastes like it came out of a tub. The service really sucked as well, our waitress was completely absent even to where the kitchen had to bring our food out at first to the wrong table. It wasn’t busy either, so there wasn’t a good excuse. Aside from this, the bar is still legit and the bartenders are really great. Overall, I just hate seeing a once fantastic restaurant in downtown Wheeling on such a steep decline. I hope they can reinvent themselves.

We were looking for some food about 130 PM on Wednesday afternoon. We walked into an almost empty dining room ( there was only one person eating at a High-top table. It looked like a couple employees were at the far end of the area. We. Peered around the corner and stood at the front entrance a bit. It was as if we were invisible.. no one around.... webpage said you were open, but evidence does not support. Good service needs to be managed, bad service happens all by itself.

Nestled in the heart of Downtown Wheeling, Sarah’s On Main is a charming coffee shop that has quickly become a favorite for locals and visitors alike. This delightful spot offers an array of scrumptious lunch options, many of which cater to plant-based diets. Diners can indulge in a variety of vegan and vegetarian dishes such as the refreshing harvest salad, mouthwatering sundried tomato and pesto pizza, or an assortment of delectable breakfast pastries.
Stopped by for breakfast and couldn't have been happier. The French toast was amazing, the breakfast brioche sandwich top notch. There is a bread magician here. The coffee and atmosphere was great as well. By the time we left the queue for coffee and yesterday goodness was present but moving along.

What a fabulously adorable place with amazing fresh dishes! First three items on the lunch menu sounded perfect, so along with trying all of them, had to add a blueberry cheese danish too. Everything was delicious and made perfectly.

Sarah’s On Main is such a wonderful spot! The food is delicious — the sweet potato hash with chorizo was amazing, and the Quiche Lorraine was fluffy, dense, and perfect. The lavender coffee was such a unique and comforting touch. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and Sarah herself is so kind and sweet, which makes the whole experience even better. Truly a place that makes you feel at home while enjoying a special meal.

I love this place. I don’t even consider myself a salad person but oh my gosh their salads are so good on every occasion I’ve had them that I crave them. Genuinely delicious food. My only small complain is that sometimes the espresso (I usually get a cappuccino or latte) is hit or miss. Maybe it depends on who makes it. Overall I really love this place and employees are very nice. I like spending time in there.

Seeing how high this establishment is rated, I made the 180 mile round trip to Sarah's On Main with pretty high expectations. Regretfully, I just don't understand what all the hype is about. I will say I've never had French toast in the form of sliced breadsticks before, and I appreciate the attempt at a unique take on the dish. The appreciation ended though when the dull knife provided couldn't cut through about half of the French toast because it was so tough even after soaking in an entire container of maple syrup for a while. The egg was just your ordinary egg with no seasoning whatsoever, which left the three little sausage links as the sole redeeming part of the meal. At least the wait staff were all friendly and the quaint establishment was in a nice part of town with ample street parking.

Sarah’s On Main was recommended to us by a real estate agent while looking for coffee and breakfast when first in town. He mentioned the homemade bread was incredible. We have since been multiple times and always leave fully impressed by the food, service, and atmosphere. We’ve enjoyed pastries, sandwiches and lunch specials. You really can’t go wrong with any order here. And the coffee is easily one of the best in town. Love the outdoor garden with mural and back yard area. Would be grateful for more gluten free options and longer hours but completely understand the costs and staff challenges associated with both.

Oglebay Resort is a versatile destination that offers various accommodations, including a spa, 30-acre zoo, and pools. The resort boasts a rich history and is located on top of a hill with stunning views. It features different room categories like the west wing and lake view, connected internally. With spacious conference halls, multiple restaurants, a spa, and shops on-site. Guests can enjoy the convenience of having everything they need within the property.
Our recent stay at Oglebay Resort was great! The entire staff was quite friendly and our room (#W215) was spotless and well equipped. The food was exceptional, as was the wait staff (including the omelet lady). This is a great place to stay any time of the year; we will definitely return.

Overall, we liked it. We stayed in the Byrd Wing in the Lodge and it was very dated. The toilet was so close to the bath tub and carpet in the bathroom areas aren't the most sanitary. Super confusing layout and honestly, not very kid friendly. No kids menus at any of the restaurants or highchairs/kids cups. We went down to the lake for the Fall Nights and beware there is zero lightening on the walking path down. We used our phone flashlights. Cars do fly around so be very alert! This place is nice for adults, kids I would take elsewhere next time. Also, no fridge or microwaves in rooms. Ice machines and most vending machines did not work properly. Staff was very friendly though! I think the property just needs a good upkeep/overhaul.

First time at Oglebay and won't be my last. Great, very spacious room with inside and outside access which I love. Plenty of amenities and super friendly staff. The fig and pig pizza at Skyline was worth the stay alone but the staff in the bar were excellent. Kyasia made killer old fashioneds and Tyler and Emmy kept things lively. Definitely will return.

The staff is friendly BUT. There where bed bugs in the cabin. It was a whole scramble on their side which ended with improper treatment. They treated the cabin but the bed bugs were back the next night. We did not get to use the room all day so we had to eat at their restaurant which is incredibly overpriced, any there are not many free activities onsite. We got 50% of the cost comped, but that doesn't cover the fact that we now have to deal with the "did we bring them back" issue and we couldn't eat the food we bought to save money. They initially said we would be comped 100% of the price of the room but then on check out there was all of a sudden protocol and because we did not move to the smaller cabin that did not fit our needs, we only got a 50% comp. This trade off was by no means communicated to us at any point until check out. The onsite coordinators for the wedding we were there to attended also barely coordinated, and its internal resources. -Added note on 10/23/2025 to respond to the businesses comment. It was a cabin reservation for a group. Reservation was under my friend. He has only received "Sorry that was your experience" platitudes. It is very clear that bed bugs are expected by management.

My review is about the Oglebay website. It is so outdated. It is not easy to navigate. It does not provide photos of each room in the cottage or home you are renting. People would like to see what they are paying for and not have any surprises when they get there. Your website is not mobile friendly. My recommendation is to reach out to your website company 'FINE' and come into this century.

The Oglebay Institute Glass Museum is a tribute to Wheeling's rich history in glassmaking, showcasing over 3,500 pieces of locally made glass and china. One of its highlights is the famous Sweeney Punch Bowl, the largest cut glass piece globally. Visitors can witness live demonstrations and workshops at the museum's glass studio to gain insight into the art of glassmaking.
It all was beautiful!!! We found the glass blower and his wife to be very informative and so very nice. Highly recommend visiting here. Loved It!
John B — Google review
The collection focuses on glass made in Wheeling WV, which is highly reputed for glassmaking. The quality of the collection does not disappoint, as they have many impressive items on display. The glass museum is part of a larger estate, which can keep tourists busy for a little while. While the museum has excellent collections, it lacked explanations or interactivity. Cases after cases of glass: nice to look at, not sure I learned much. Instead of devoting half of the building to a gift shop, perhaps the museum part deserves more space and a revamped approach to engaging visitors.
Philippe — Google review
How neat! I have a love for glass. Especially carnival glass. We learned a lot about glass making in the area over the years and we got to look at absolutely beautiful pieces. We visited during the festival of the lights so we also walked the grounds and checked those out. They are beautiful! We bought the tickets that included the Mansion tour and that was interesting also! We definitely enjoyed our visit from Michigan!

We have been going to Oglebay for many years now around the Christmas holidays. We have always loved shopping at what used to be the Oglebay Carriage House and now the Oglebay Institute Glass Museum. They have some nice Christmas items there, however just not the same shopping experience. We definitely miss what Oglebay used to be compared to what it is today.

We were surprised that it cost $15..00 to visit the house and museum. There's no discount for seniors or vets. But once we got into the museum we were very pleased with the displays.

Zoos & Aquariums
Nestled within Oglebay Park in Wheeling, United States, the Oglebay Good Zoo has been a beloved family destination since its establishment in 1977. This expansive zoo is home to a diverse array of rare and endangered species, offering visitors the chance to encounter animals from around the world. In addition to classic exhibits, guests can partake in animal encounters for an up-close experience with certain creatures. The zoo also provides various nature programs catering to both children and adults.
Last weekend, my wife, my son, and I attended a 7-year-old’s birthday party at Oglebay Good Zoo, and we had a fantastic experience. There's a special party room where we enjoyed food, sang "Happy Birthday," and even got to see some animals up close right inside the room. The zoo itself has both indoor and outdoor areas. While it's not a large zoo, the animals are unique and very interesting. The staff was incredibly helpful, well-organized, and attentive throughout our visit. One of the highlights was when everyone went to a separate room for an animal presentation. A staff member introduced three different animals that the kids could touch, and adults had the option to step out if they preferred. The presenter was amazing—very knowledgeable and great with the kids. Overall, I highly recommend Oglebay Good Zoo as a place to celebrate children’s birthday parties. It was fun, educational, and really well run.

Wonderful little zoo for children. My 1st grader LOVED IT! Not so big that you feel like you’re missing anything & the animals were all so active during the day we were there. We got to see the cheetahs run & eat! While on our trip I lost my prescription sunglasses… they not only found them for me but mailed them to my house! We will be back very soon!!

This zoo is so cute and it's a great retirement home for the animals! I went with some friends to do the behind-the-scenes golf cart led tour and it was fabulous. Brin was our guide - she was so knowledgeable, funny, and nice. Excellent people skills! The facility is so well maintained and we got to tour the animal hospital as well. They take really good care of the animals here, even if it is a smaller zoo. The larger resort surrounding the zoo was also so beautiful! I hope to visit the resort for their holiday lights in the future.

So many unique animals, particularly the rare maned wolves and red pandas, that you can see up close and learn about.

The experience here is quintessentially local—imagine enjoying your meal next to a gas station under the scenic embrace of double overpasses in a charming valley.

Georgia H — Google review
Very poor customer service. The person taking our order wasn’t helpful at all . We asked if they had any specials on their roast beef sandwiches. The employee said “yes”... So then we had to ask “Well what are they?” I would think if somebody is asking about the specials you should probably just tell them, but that’s just me. She also sounded annoyed that we were asking questions. The food was bad quality. The curly fries were cold and all broken end pieces. I would just say don’t ever go here. They don’t seem to want customers. We’ve also had problems with them closing early, or turning off all the lights to make it look like they’re closed.
Daniel A — Google review
They seemed understaffed. While I was in there, there was a door dasher complaining about her pickup order from last time in a pretty annoying tone. The staff handled it great and were very courteous. Which was nice because I would have definitely made that lady sit and wait a while if she spoke to me that way. Anyway, food was as expected. The steak nuggets were likely not beef, but repurposed deer ankles.
Josh W — Google review
Unbelievably bad experience, especially considering it's harder to have lower expectations than at an Arby's drive-thru to begin with. But... Wherever you have set those expectations... Prepare to be disappointed. Management is still riding the covid excuse wave so the restaurant is understaffed and the bathroom is closed. Spent 20 minutes in the drive-thru. Staff was rude. Had to ask for napkins. Discovered that there was no sauce for the very beaten up roast beef sandwich in the bag... At that point, you have no options because it's not like you're going to sit in the drive-thru for 20 minutes to ask for sauce. If you can possibly avoid this stop by the freeway, do so. Eating one of your own limbs or possibly one of your young is likely a better decision than going here.
Adam G — Google review
Stopped by to try the Wagyu Burger, the sauce was good, the burger was a bit charred and on the dry side. Not what I expected out of the best meat in the world but it's not the meats fault it was over cooked. The flavors were good but was disappointing because of the over cooking. Crinkle fries and chocolate shake were good. I went through the drive thru so I was all the way home before seeing the cook on the burger, otherwise I would have returned it.

I'm not impressed with my most recent visit. Half the sandwich was smashed and the cheese all over the wrapper instead of on the sandwich. I didn't get a Pic of the fries but I got the curly fries and they were ALL end pieces, not one curly q fry! Very disappointing 😞

The order taker at Route 88 Burgers & Brew had limited English skills, so the customer sought assistance from a helpful cook. The cook informed them that garlic seasoning was used on burgers and fries, but accommodated the customer's allergy by preparing theirs plain. It is uncertain how West Virginia taxes to-go orders. Despite this, the burgers and fries were enjoyable. Additionally, they had a delightful experience with a delicious, tender, and moist briscuit accompanied by savory sides.
Great little place for fun & a light meal. Burgers were fantastic & the table loved the fries as well. Fair prices, friendly service & a clean environment. The balcony seats on the back of the restaurant provide AMAZING views. The driving range, practice putting green & par 3 course look like a very fun opportunity.

Fragile Bun Steals Fun I would gamble that there’s not a prettier setting in WV to eat a burger. Rolling hills, Ski Slopes and unobstructed views for miles. But the burger bun should hold up emotionally and physically. RT88BB got recommended as the best burger in Wheeling and in a sea of frozen patties laced with soy, they may be right. But if you pick up this burger you can’t put it down because the bun disintigrates in your hands. I had to ask for a second top bun which also split the second I touched it. I got a double “all the way” and the bun made it “some of the way.” Don’t order the triple unless you plan on using a fork. If this burg gets a sturdy potato bun in the future it’ll be list worthy, today its just wish worthy. Fine burg, keep it to a single.

Thru the toughest circumstances in years, Charlie and his Top Hand Jeremiah/ staff have brought The West / Stratford Springs back from closure to a thriving Special Occasion, Dining Room and Sports Bar second to none. The menu has such a variety that everyones taste are satisfied. This only works with a cooking Staff with pride,drive and respect for each customers dish . The West has an extensive Salad menu that I order from weekly. My personal favorite is the Greek Salad with Blackened Chicken topped with Charlie's Greek Dressing but there are literally over a dozen choices. Our Weekends are often highlighted by The West Breakfast menu with choices from French Toast to Mexican specialties that are phenomenal. Its not hard to tell by reviews who have actually been to The West.

The West at Stratford Springs hosted a corporate dinner for my team. The experience was wonderful from start to finish. Jeramiah went above and beyond to accommodate our small group and made planning a breeze. Our servers were great and everyone enjoyed their meals. I definitely recommend!

The newly renovated West is nothing short of amazing! My sister is getting married there very soon, and Jeremiah is wonderful! He has left no detail uncovered. Very pleasant experience. Highly recommend.

My husband and I attended the Christmas Eve Eve event. It was very nice with a free buffet and live entertainment!! We had a lovely time. We have been to The West several times for various things and we always enjoy ourselves. The staff is exceptional and are always attentive to their guests. (Jeremiah and Corey are awesome!!)
