Table 9
40 Donley StreetNew "higher end" restaurant in Morgantown. We like it so far!
Decent Thai food. Mostly just nice that it's in downtown and walkable from our house. The hill is a bit steep to walk back up, but it's good exercise.

This is how I usually access the bike trail to get to work, usually via South High Street. Going upstream takes you by the dog park, downstream takes you to the Mon river and the other bike trails.
