Wet your whistle at these BOM25 Best Neighborhood Bars.
It’s a thirsty summer, so pull up a bar stool—these are the Best of Morgantown Best Neighborhood Bars for 2025.
No. 5
Keglers Sports Bar
With a satisfying beer list and bar food menu, screens in all directions, and free parking at a convenient location in Suncrest, it’s no surprise that Morgantown’s longtime favorite sports bar—winning BOM Best Sports Bar for 13 years in a row—is also a top neighborhood spot.
No. 4
Mundy’s Place
This 1949 watering hole has deep roots in First Ward, but it’s popular with people from all over town who walk the trails at White Park and use the nearby ballparks and ice arena. Expect frequent live music, a dependable beer list, and a pub menu with character.
No. 3
Apothecary Ale House & Cafe
Offering the BOM Best Beer Selection year after year isn’t Apothecary’s only draw. Bartenders who know the beer list inside and out and a comfortable beer garden—umbrellas when it’s sunny, fire pit when it’s chilly—quickly turn first-time visitors to this downtown bar into loyal fans.
No. 2
Mario’s Fishbowl
An iconic Morgantown experience, Mario’s has been serving up frothy “fishbowls” for thirsty Woodburners since the mid-20th century and often wins BOM Best Neighborhood Bar. There’s a full bar menu, too—we recommend the wings.
No. 1
Gene’s Beer Garden
Morgantown readers ranked the oldest bar in town the Best Neighborhood Bar for a fifth time in 2025. The beer list at Gene’s spans the tastes of its Greenmont working class and graduate student regulars, and so do the bands that play from time to time. Say hello to the popular longtime Irish bartender, Lucy, and order a hot dog—now you’re a regular, too.
