Things To Do

Abbey's Restaurant & Lounge

This is where we went on our first date and is still one of our favorite places in town! Everything is good, but we recommend the Black & Bleu steak, parmesan crusted chicken, and the mojito.

Alpha Tavern

The Market Vines - Wine Bar & Grille

Later Alligator

This is where Gaby first met Bruce and Jennifer (Ryan’s parents).

Rachels On 16th

Our favorite breakfast restaurant! Everything is great, but we recommend the chicken fried steak and eggs or the Six Dollar Breakfast with French toast!

Sarah’s On Main

Another favorite breakfast spot! You can’t go wrong, but we recommend the sweet potato hash or the avocado toast. If you’re a black coffee drinker, go for the Americano (the best black coffee in Wheeling), or if you prefer something sweeter, go for the vanilla latte. Or if you prefer hot tea, try the Medicine Ball.

Wheeling Coffee Shoppe

We recommend the house blend, iced coffee, and chai tea latte!

Figaretti's Restaurant

A Wheeling classic!

El Zocalo Mexican Restaurant

This is where Gaby works! It’s the best Mexican food in town!

Undo's West

We go on a group date here every Valentine’s Day! Even though the cheesy bread is a free appetizer, it’s one of the best parts of eating here!

Newellstown Diner

Ryan found The Vineyard Church from eating here during his apartment hunting trip to Wheeling in 2018. His waitress was wearing a shirt that said, “I love my church,” and she recommended The Vineyard!

Oglebay Park Wheeling, WV

This is the premier destination in Wheeling! There is golf, tennis, playgrounds, hiking, walking, restaurants, a lodge, and beautiful views everywhere! Ryan asked Gaby to be his girlfriend in 2021 and his wife in 2022 at the picnic area that Google Maps calls, “The Loop.” There are also a lot of Memorial Day events going on during Memorial Day Weekend! Check out https://oglebay.com/ to see what’s going on!

Wheeling Park

This is a beautiful park in Wheeling, very close to Ryan home (and Gaby’s future home). There is walking, a playground, indoor tennis, golf, mini golf, and paddle boats.

Mount Wood Overlook

This is a beautiful view of Wheeling! Ryan and Gaby stopped by here on their first date.

Wheeling Suspension Bridge

This is a historic landmark of Wheeling. It was the longest suspension bridge in the world at the time it was built. You can walk out on it and enjoy the beautiful views of the Ohio River. We recommend checking out the bridge after attending church at The Capitol Theater on Sunday morning!

Vineyard Church

Make sure to attend our church! We gather in the historic Capitol Theater in downtown Wheeling on Sunday mornings at 10:30 AM!

HANGOVER BBQ

Want to go on a picnic? Pick up some of the best BBQ in town and take it out to Oglebay or Wheeling Park! This is take-out only - they don’t have any seating. Make sure to check their hours on Google Maps!

St Clairsville Memorial Park

This is a beautiful park in the middle of Saint Clairsville.

Wheeling Heritage Trail (walk or bike)

Go for a walk or bike ride along the Wheeling Heritage trail starting at Heritage Port in downtown! Heritage Port is the riverfront park on the north side of the WesBanco Arena. You can rent bikes from the Movatic bike rental station right next to WesBanco Arena, and we recommend you ride or walk north from Heritage Port.
