There is a German Restaurant in the downtown area. I cannot think of the street it is on, but I think it is somewhat across from the old B & O Railroad station which is now a community college. Also near downtown is a fish place that is real popular in the Wheeling area. It is in the "market" building. I think I remember seeing other places to eat in this area.The fish place is basically takeout, but they do have tables. During Lent on a Friday, I can remember the line going down the sidewalk. There was a brew pub downtown, but I not sure it is still open.I think it was called Nail City brewery. There is Oglesby Park Lodge, and I think there is also a restaurant across the street from there at a country club. Tom From [email removed] Wed Aug 28 15:13:46 EDT 2002 Article: 14565 of pgh.food

The place referenced is called "Coleman's Fish Market" the have the best fish sandwich there is. Coming from Pittsburgh you would take I-70 to Wheeling and just before the tunnel take the Souith Wheeling exit. Stay on this road until you pass the hospital building on the right. Take the next exit (21st St??? 28th ????) and bear to the right. Go to next major ligh and turn right heading back toward the hospital. At the last light before entering the hospital turn left go one block and the Center Market building is at the next light on the left. Turn left because the fish place is in the second bldg.

I know a few places in Wheeling that are good (but I can't recall any that are great). Sorry Jerry, you're gonna have to use the phone book to get the exact location: Coleman's Fish Market - Market Street - very good seafood, casual, decent prices. River City Brew Works - In the Artisan Center. Good micro brewery with eclectic menu. Bella Via - Good old fashioned italian place. Like mama usta make. I believe they are only open for dinner. Wheeling Coffee Shop - Washington Ave. Great Coffee - not much food, but great coffee. Also, Olglebay has a good restaurant, but the name escapes me..... That's all I got!
