Wood Iron Eatery is a new restaurant in Fayetteville, situated in a beautiful older home just back from the bustling downtown.



These pillows were for sale inside. How cute!



The menu features breakfast and lunch items, as well as coffee.



I ordered at the counter and received my marker - this cute little guy!



So, I went with the AM Hand-Held, which has egg, housemade maple sausage, American cheese, chili aioli, english muffin and pepper jelly.

I'm such a sucker for limited edition releases. Take, for example, Starbucks' Unicorn Frappuccino ... the Crystal Ball Frappuccino ... The Christmas Tree Frappuccino ... and the Zombie Frappuccino.

In my mind, what if it's the best thing I'll ever taste and I MISSED OUT ON IT! I can't handle that FOMO. So, when Starbucks announced their Witch's Brew, I wanted to check it out.

"A powerful potion. Bewitched, it’s true. One single drop and the curse will go poof. Toad’s breath, swamp fog and goblin regret, divine. A mixture so scrumptious it must be a sign. Sip this sweet potion before it disappears, the Witch’s Brew Frappuccino® drink is nothing to fear."

"Our cauldron bubbles with a Halloween Frappuccino® Blended Beverage Crème delight that's more treat than trick (or is it?)... The delicious orange crème flavor drink is dotted with imaginary Bat Warts and Lizard Scales."

Nawab, which is a well-established Indian restaurant in Huntington, has opened a Charleston location.



Nawab - pronounced Nuh-vahb - has a lunch and dinner buffet. Kayla and I went for lunch to check it out.



It's in the former B&D Gastropub space in Kanawha City, with a bar area at the front and an open dining space off to the right.



Honestly, I love Indian food, so a buffet is always my favorite. It gives you a chance to try a little bit of everything!



And there were lots of great classics on this. Of course tikka masala, pita, and kheer are my go-tos.



What are you favorite dishes here?

White Sulphur Springs really has some very cute restaurants.



Meghan, Sara and I checked out 50 East, which had a cute outdoor seating area and huge interior.



The menu has a few items that stood out to me: oyster po'boy, fried green tomato sandwich, and even the reuben.



To start, we ordered the West Virginia Eggrolls, which were full of pulled pork with barbecue sauce, and shredded cheese.



For my entree, I went with the tuna nicoise salad. It's ahi tuna with green beans, red onions, olives and red potatoes.



What's your favorite item here?

I'll take any excuse to visit Fayetteville, one of my favorite small towns. Bonus points if it's for food or drink! OR BOTH!



Southside Junction Tap House is a new restaurant and bar in downtown that features a great selection of craft beer, some great tasty bites and darts!




One of my all-time favorite beers is SeaQuench, so I instantly knew I need that.



And with BBQ Pulled Pork Nachos on the menu, this place had my name written all over it.



Mmmm heaven.



Look at that beautiful plate of deliciousness. The pork is slightly sweet, and all that cheese is just perfection.

Located just off the Greenbrier River Trail, Jack Horner's Corner in Seebert offers bikes, floats, and more for those wanting to get out on the river.



And, they're also a great spot to fuel up and fill your tummy.



I got a pizza - which was much larger than I anticipated - with mushrooms. And it. hit. the. spot.



Afterward, there was ice cream! I am always a fan of a swirl.

Fran's Family Restaurant is a small restaurant in Summersville that I came across because they are the only restaurant in the state that carries one West Virginia beer.

Fran's Family Restaurant serves Banning's Beer - and it's the ONLY place that serves it.

Banning's is a West Virginia brewery that's hoping to get into more restaurants in the Summersville area, but for now, Fran's has it all.

I was mostly excited about the beer, but I wanted to try a bite, too. And for some reason, that baked potato was jumping off the menu at me.

I got it with cheese and sour cream. Is this ever a bad combo? Yum!












And the beer! There aren't many styles - black stout was one - but I went with a lighter blonde that I liked.

Have you tried Bannings yet?

I've been to every Custard Stand location in the state, so I was shocked when we passed one in Summersville that I had never seen before.

Despite the rainy day, I knew I had to try this location out! Ice cream was calling my name.




Of course, it was hard to bypass a hotdog with chili this visit. Next time.



I stared at all the flavors for quite some time before ultimately choosing maple.



And that's a small cone! Yum. What's your favorite flavor?

I'm such a sucker for any restaurant that has "Appalachia" in its name. I feel like it's speaking to my soul.



Appalachian Coffee House is a really cute, trendy coffee shop in a new plaza area in Mount Nebo.



The space features this book section. So you can pick up a book to read while at the coffee shop!



The menu features standard hot drinks, specialty drinks, smoothies, and some snacks.



I love their branding!



See that snack bar? Look closer.



Little mini pepperoni rolls! They have one single slice of pepperoni! I had to try one.



And, for coffee, I tried the Mountain Mama - which is a white chocolate mocha with caramel and vanilla shots. MMmm.



Have you been?
