Jameson’s Pub & Eatery

This place sucks. Bad everything. Food took forever. Some jerk played two Seal song on the juke box in a row. Seal! It is Applebee’s. The management should be fired.

It was a pretty good place to grab a sandwich and some drinks. The wait stuff was a bit confused and they messed up a few of our orders and bills, but the food was very tasteful and the specialty drinks we got were very good! It’s right in the downtown area so I was a bit surprised that it was not as busy as I was anticipating.

I was at Jameson’s tonight with a few friends (¹⁰⁄₂₄). Not only did it take 20+ minutes to receive a drink, but the bartender closest to the stage & band (short w/​dark hair), was extremely rude and didn’t even fill the drinks ¾ of the way. Extremely dissatisfied with my service this evening.

I want SO badly to like Jamesons. The atmosphere is fantastic and the music they play is great… but the food just sucks. The french fries are ALWAYS bad (I’ve given this place a try around 5 times… always with hopes it’ll be better). Chicken fingers were way over cooked and super tough. I got a burger there once and to be fair it was a seriously «pretty» burger like you’d see in a magazine, but the taste just wasn’t there… always leave disappointed from this place and I’m done giving it chances.

Love this place. Drinks and food are great. I always get the spicy chicken bites or the prime rib! Love the outdoor seating area too.

The food is typical American food. The drinks are average and the service is as well. But that’s if you go during the day! At night Jameson’s has a totally different atmosphere! And comes off as a bar in a college town! The drinks are good as well as the specials and the music is great! Definitely worth going to at night!

Food is amazing! Plus bar and staff are awesome people. Quick service. Strong drinks and did I mention top notch food? If your a drinker and water this is a good joint to spend a night. Manager is personable and friendly, plus all servers and bartenders r awesome. If you don’t like jamesons, then you suck at life

This place has potential, but I’ve been here a few times and always left disappointed. The service is so bad that I had to go up to the bar to get my own drink, since I got tired of waiting for the waiter. My entire dinning experience was nearly 2 hours and I saw our waiter 3 times. I was so thirsty by the time I was done eating my food, I was close to going to the bathroom to fill up my cup. Most of the food is decent. Good burgers and sandwiches. I wouldn’t recommend the steak. With all of the eateries in Morgantown, I can’t see myself returning.

Terrible experience at Jameson’s. I ordered the special, which was a fried chicken meal that came with a biscuit, mashed potatoes, and sausage gravy. There was about a 30 minute wait from when we ordered until our food came out which would have been fine if it was crowded but there was nobody there. Blood spewed out of my chicken as I cut into it. By the time the incompetent wait staff came back by, 15 minutes had passed. The waiter took my plate when I showed him the chicken and returned with it after about another 15 – 20 minutes. By that time my wife had finished her hamburger (which she said was mediocre). When they set my plate in front of me I realize they had put the chicken that I had cut BACK INTO the deep fryer. The breading was ruined/​burned because they fried it twice. The meat was hard as a rock on the outside and slimy on the inside. The gravy, biscuit, and potatoes had all become hard and unedible after sitting for 35 minutes. I told the waiter that the food was inedible he apologized and said he would take it off of our check. I told the waiter I didn’t want to wait another 30 minutes to get different food so I didn’t eat… They didn’t offer to comp anything on our check other than the food that I couldn’t eat. Nobody in charge came up to apologize or ask us about how our meal was. This is the first time I have left a restaurant without eating.
Also, two people seated behind us left after not being served for several minutes.

One of the newer establishments on High Street. The place is massive, with nice wood features; in warm weather, there’s also the front room that opens onto the street. They’ve done a lot of work on the place, so it’s a shame that right now it feels to bland, empty, and generic. A few beer company logos on the wall, and that’s about it. If they’re going for the Irish pub vibe, it needs to be cozier and more lived-​in — how about some WVU sports memorabilia? Soccer scarves and shirts? Old photos? Anything to give the place some personality and warmth.
As for the food — lousy bar food. I would not go there for a meal. At best, a place to grab a beer or two while watching the game on one of the many TVs.

Nice looking place, BAD service. Such bad service we walked out (and left money for drinks and tip) after waiting an hour and a half without receiving our orders of food. Our waitress was seriously overwhelmed (however the place was not busy) and left us alone for long stretches of time. I bet she still doesn’t realize we left. The place was near empty as we sat down and were slowly brought our drinks and then eventually asked for our orders. Apps came out about a half hour after ordering and were not good. Not once did a manager come to our table and apologize, the waitress never said the kitchen was backed up, and the place was close to empty for its size, so none of it made sense. I don’t want to spend any more time on this review as our visit sucked that much. Just don’t go here, plenty of good restaurants downtown that are Morgantown staples and so much better.

Jameson is a garden-​variety Irish themed pub where while the food is an utter joke, the bar offers a good alternative for those seeking variety in their libations. But more about that in a second — the wow factor was the digs! Solid! It’s exactly the welcoming addition to the seemingly predictable new bars that have appeared and consequently disappeared in Morgantown over the last three decades. The interiors are tasteful and super fresh! The bar area is spacious and vivacious! The tables are big, the seating is comfortable, the lighting is spot on, the décor is dynamic, and the bathrooms are very clean (and hopefully it stays like that). There is this really cool mezzanine all around that could be pretty nicer when it’s more packed and there is also this closed off area facing high street that opens up to the outside during nice temperatures — very unique to this town.
However, like most places in Morgantown, Jameson will have to fess up to the growing pains and reality of managing an establishment. The staff is friendly but tended to be rather dopey — I was handed someone else’s credit card two times (yikes) when signing out. The music is for the most part a joke — incoherently cobbled up out of a new-​age jukebox pounding out one inappropriate track after the other. I so didn’t get it.
Alas, the food at Jameson is a hopeless cesspool of shit — just when I started getting the hankering for some Irish favorites (in which I could swear even the most intoxicated Irishman could whip up blindfolded) my hopes were dashed when I saw dishes pathetically limp out of the kitchen. Wilted vegetables, soggy fish and chips, sloppy fries — absolutely vile. Luckily, the beer selection is pretty superb — I was shocked to see on tap things like Schimwicks, Great Lakes, DC Brau, etc. I hope they keep that up while getting their shit together with their menu, because if the food were better, I suspect many of the empty tables and seats would be constantly filled.

I really want to like an Irish pub in Morgantown. I’ve visited 3 times and not sure that I’ll be back. The facility is very nice, clean, and roomy. The food quality is just not there. I’ve had the prime rib sandwich, the dagwood, and the chicken bites and none of them were that great. Steak was rubbery, dagwood was bland, and the chicken breading fell off. Just can’t vouch for this place.

Food was worst food on High Street. Cold dried out potatoes, served with cold old dried out baby carrots.

The Rueben was good though the kraut on it was pretty bland. The bloody Mary on the other hand was delicious made with house made mix

We ordered a mushroom Swiss burger and a turkey wrap close to 10 pm. The wait was short and the food was delicious. I was pleasantly surprised. I loved the liquid smoke infused ketchup and the fries as well.
Clean, spacious, accommodating. Can’t wait to return.

Best part of Jameson’s would be Tailpipes fry sauce.
Nachos were some of the worst I have had. The chips themselves were good and fresh, but I’m fairly certain it was suppose to come with Jalapenos and it certainly did not. The cheese was the cheap nacho cheese type. We got our nachos with chili and it barely had any chili on the nachos. Overall the chips were good, but everything else was lacking. It certainly did not have enough quantity of anything, but chips and lettuce.
I purcahsed the Prime Rib Sub which I would say was average. It’s a sub that has been cut in half. One half of my sub had meet on 10% of the sandwich at best.

The worst experience I’ve had at any bar in my life. A group of 7 young good looking adults came to dine on the 4^th of July and had nothing but issues with service, food, and intelligence. The server was totally inept to taking care of the customer. Our first round of drinks were the only we received in almost and hour and a half. The chicken bites appetizer was ice cold and couldn’t even be eaten. The meals arrived and maybe one out of seven were correctly delivered. How do you mess up a wrap??? Fries were cold and not edible. Not to mention the FAT and gross manager came by and huffed and puffed when we told him we weren’t eating our meals. No apology, no sincerity, just a bunch of dicks. The best part about the meal was leaving, but I have to mention the hostess who was not only hot, but had a nice ass and was very personable. If I returned it would be for her and her only. don’t go!

Good pub fare, good beer prices, tables are not on top of each other. Pretty satisfied overall. I would recommend you give it a try.

At Jameson’s for dinner and am happy to see the front deck open. Nice surprise and very cozy. I’m sure the food will be great as usual.
