Not that I'm at all against Tavern on the square, but has anyone looked at Rachel's Roadhouse or Iron Bridge Inn

http://www.springfields.com/iron-bridge-inn/

They both look like viable options
 
I've eaten at Rachel's a couple times, Great food (y), but parking can be really tight
 
Got it on the calendar.

We are in as always!

Not being in Morgantown anymore really stinks as far as making it a day trip though...

We will just have to make a weekend out of it!  >:D

Where'd you move to?

I?ve always ?lived? in Richwood, but I?ve been at WVU in Morgantown for 5 years.

Since I am in my last year of grad school, I am on my clinical rotations and none of them are up north. I gave up my apartment in Morgantown and moved back home permanently.

That being said, I did ?move? but only a few miles from where I?ve been for the last 23 years!  :laugh:

We have considered both of those locations in the past.
We did go to Iron Bridge Inn in 2012 and it was a long wait to get a table.

I wasn't cool enough to hang out with you guys in 2012 :eek:. 2013 was my first year at this GTG
Do they not take reservations?
 
If I remember correctly, Iron Bridge Inn does not take reservations.
I guess waiting for a table is not a big concern considering how long we wait for donuts.   :unsure:
But I have already made reservations at The Tavern on the Square.

BigBlockBirch lives in Butler (say that ten times fast)  :laugh:

He doesn't have his AV anymore, but he still comes to GTG's when time allows.

Are you on Facebook? We have an extension of the club site on there as well! :) https://www.facebook.com/groups/CAFCNA/


Since it is such a short trip for you, I hope that you can make it!!! >:D
 
I'm out. Don't have the day off. Not sure about Twiggy but she had said something about not wanting to drive that far. She's spoiled when it comes to driving. I drive everywhere when we go together.
