Food scene
The food is great but the dessert is the main reason we stop in. They have everything from cakes, pies, and cookies to scones and apple dumplings.

Hands down the best Italian in the area. It is a bit of a drive but completely worth it. Skip dessert at the restaurant and head to Dairy Creme Corner down the road from Muriale's. Check online for their hours as they do typically close in the winter.

Pizza is bit on the pricier side but worth it. Does not look like much from the outside but do not let that fool you! I will always recommend eating-in however it makes a great takeout meal as well.
Salads and pepperoni rolls are good as well. "What's that" you ask? You don't know what a pepperoni roll is? Get one! It's a West Virginia delicacy.

Sightseeing
This is must while in Morgantown! Great overlook and plenty of hiking trails. It is a great way to immerse yourself into the great outdoors of West Virginia. I would recommend hiking the Henry Clay Iron Furnace trail and checking out the overlook at Sunset.

Great walking and biking trail that follows along the Monongahela River. You can rent bikes at Wamsley Cycles (few miles down the trail). I would steer clear of this trail at night as it is unfortunately poorly lit.
