You get your money worth. Food was great and you get it with the quickness. Love this place

Definitely a place to sit outside and have a few drinks. I know ppl like to smoke and drink but boy... all I could smell was cigarettes the whole time. I would sit inside if that might bother you. The food was not good. Everything was so salty and just not good. My dessert wasn't cooked all the way through. The waitress was very nice. read more

Overall, I'm a fan of this place, but there were things I liked and didn't like. Definitely sit outside. They asked if we were ok with inside or outside. Originally I didn't care, but then I saw inside, which is a dark looking bar. Strong pass, I rather have the tiki bar atmosphere of outside. There's an arcade inside, which I wanted to make sure my kids didn't see too. We came in July, so it was warm outside, but in the shade with overhead fans it wasn't bad at all. I ordered a skinny margarita. It was ok, but I didn't love it. However, it got the job done. For food I got the Ahi Shoyu Poke, which I enjoyed. It was a little chewy, so don't expect top sashimi caliber, but I actually really liked it overall. My husband got oriental chicken and switched one of his sides with curly fries for the kids. The chicken was tender and the fries were pretty good. One kid got Mac and cheese, which he didn't eat, but I liked. My other son got cheese pizza. He actually liked the pineapple pizza that was on the regular menu better. They do charge automatic 20% gratuity for large parties (we had 8). Service was great though anyways. I will definitely come back. read more

Tropics - Bars Near Me - Morgantown, West Virginia

On a cool April day where else should two people go to eat and think of warmer weather? When in West Virginia we decided to go to the Tropics in form of food and decor. Upon entering we were greeted warmly, this continued even as we left. Servers were fantastic! Very attentive. Inside seating for us, this time of year but already planning to return when they have bands and sitting outside with friends. Mango vinegarette dressing accented the salad just right. Shortribs and fish taco were beyond delicious. Great place to go anytime of the year. read more

We love Tropics! The people are incredible, never had a sour faced.or.sullen serve there, they always care about you, and you don't feel like your just another table to them. The food is amazing, too. I highly suggest their specials, especially the all you can crab legs and the prime rib, while my daughter would tell you to get the pulled pork nachos. Tropics is our go to special occasions restaurant, we spend birthdays, anniversaries, even Christmas eve there. It's classy yet relaxed with the Hawaiian theme. They have bands on the patio during the summer weekends. Give them a try, I doubt you'd be disappointed. read more

I had the spare ribs which did not resemble any spare ribs I ever had and were rubbery. Wife had the fish tacos. Nothing special. They had craft beer on tap but no one could tell me anything about them. I had to search untapped for their description's. I cannot blame the server. The owners should educate them on craft beer. Not impressed... read more

Nothing compares to Tropics!!! Absolute best outdoor seating area in town & huge dining room inside. 4 different bars as well as an arcade, & casino room. Absolutely everything on the menu is delicious, but my favorites are the grilled shrimp screwers, grilled salmon, spicy tuna poke, & chicken fajitas. You must end dinner with a slice of hula pie!!! Awesome service and great lively staff. read more

The food was pretty good. The outdoor restaurant/bar area is beautiful and our waitress was wonderful. We did ask to move from a high top table to a regular table because the high top chairs were extremely uncomfortable. The arcade was a fun touch, but the prizes were meh. read more

We are new to the area and have not had one complaint dining here multiple times. Yes they have new people in training, to be expected in a college town. Food has always been excellent and the service exceptional. I think we found our new favorite place with plenty of drink and food options. Our personal favorites have been shrimp scampi pizza, prime rib, turkey club, spinach artichoke dip and hula pie. read more

Here's a glowing Google review you could post for Tropics: --- Tropics was an absolute vibe! My wife and I had a blast from start to finish. The atmosphere was electric--laid-back but lively, with just the right mix of tropical flair and great energy. The staff made us feel welcome the moment we walked in, and the drinks? Let's just say they know how to mix a cocktail that tastes like vacation. Whether you're there to dance, chill, or just soak in the good times, Tropics delivers. We'll definitely be back! . read more

So nice love the ownership and how kind they. Everyone working here is super kind. Great selection of food and fun for everyone (they even have an awesome arcade and Casino I've never been in) live music on the weekends. One thing is I live out of town and when I come back I remember the special vibe of a really chill bar in Hawaii - with the people working being so personable and kind that it has always been a magnificent experience. Food is also good - but stick to the tacos pizzas and all the Hawaii/island stuff is great. But tacos and pizzas are my fave- but they've gotten better since my last reviews love it here read more

I can honestly say we've never had a bad meal! That along with the ambiance, friendly, and attentive service keeps us coming back! Even when my day has not gone as planned, dining, along with a cocktail and enjoying the incredible live bands, lifts my spirits more than any other place I know! In my opinion, this place is second to none! read more

The kids chicken tenders and veggies tasted great! The lack of AC and air circulation made our family experience not great! My sister and dad were over heated. My sister had rotten lettuce in her salad. But, the staff is nice and the service is good overall. read more

It was okay. The spinach dip was delicious at least. Fish taco was a little weird. It wasn't like going to Hawaii or anything.

We stopped here for lunch on our way to visit my granddaughter at Marshall University. I ordered the pulled pork/cabbage platter. I was able to substitute stir fried veggies in place of rice for no extra charge. It was absolutely delicious!--all of it! And, contrary to what another reviewer said, it was not salty (and I'm very sensitive to salt, so I would have noticed). 5 stars! My husband ordered the LocoMoco and gave it a 3 1/2 out of 5 (comparing it to Loco Moco he got in Hawaii). We sat inside, since it seemed a little chilly outside. The decor was pleasant, with fabric table cloths and napkins and some Hawaiian decorations (I think the outside was more Hawaiian than inside. They also decorated for Halloween, which was fun. Our server, Heather Lee, was pleasant and attentive, even bringing the last refill of my husband's Mountain Dew in a to go cup, along with a to go cup of water for me, all without being asked to do so. Little things mean a lot. The only negative to the atmosphere was that the music was way too loud! And, one final thought, the bathrooms were clean. We'll definitely stop here again when we're passing through in the future. read more

Absolutely stellar. Faith is a jumping jack of joy. My first time there, and everything was flawless.

Went to listen to Nashville Nights at Tropics ...the music was great and the food was excellent! We got there early so seating wasn't an issue but as the evening went on the place got popping!!! I'd recommend it for anyone 18-100!!! It's fun and well worth the ride to Cheat Lake!! read more

Brunch is so good. I absolutely loved the breakfast sandwich I had to go back two weeks in a row. Also love the $4 blood Mary's!

I was in the area on an errand and found this place nearby. The Tropics restaurant has both indoor and outdoor dining along with an arcade room. There is plenty of seating both indoor and out along with a bar. It is Hawaiian themed so I decided to try a pineapple chicken sandwich along with a side salad with mango vinaigrette dressing. I got the salad first and it was a decent size. The mango dressing gave it the right amount of flavor. I got my chicken sandwich shortly after. It was big, delicious and messy!! I'm glad they give you napkins at the table because I would have been asking for more. I really enjoyed it. My waitress came around periodically to check on me and I was grateful for that. This is a great place to eat if you have things to do in Cranberry Square. Located close to the start of WV 43 and I 68, they have their own parking lot. read more

I've been going here in August every year while on vacation. I've eaten lunch and dinner many times. The food is great, the service has always been wonderful, and the restaurant itself is beautiful. There is inside seating, with great ambience. I prefer the outdoor seating. You're surrounded by banana trees and it feels very tropical. I love this place! And there is music, with an outside stage. read more

Hamburger was raw. Fries tasted like they were cooked in used motor oil.,,..............

Staying at the cranberry hotel next door. I ordered wings and spinach Dip Togo. Both were very tasty. And service was excellent. Very friendly bartender. Inside was nice and clean. read more

The food is a 2, but service was closer to a 4, so I averaged it out to a 3. Our waitress was friendly and attentive (and patient, since we were there a long time, and it took a while for our full party to assemble). She also was nice enough to take my Cucumber Fizz off the bill when I sent it back -- it had a vague taste of sour cucumber. General sense of the cocktails were that they were ok, but pretty weak on alcohol. The spring rolls were a win, and folks loved the hummus, but the chicken lettuce wraps were mostly flavorless. My oriental chicken salad was also a dud. C'est la vie. As weather allows, I recommend checking out the back yard, which is a nice place to sit and drink. read more

I'm field guy who had to cover West Virginia for a coworker on vacation. I was in a travel status for two weeks with the first week being in the Morgantown area. The second week I was scheduled to work an hour away from Morgantown, but I chose to stay at the Cranberry Hotel in Morgantown area because of the Tropics Restaurant and Bar next door. By my 2nd day there, the whole staff at Tropics remembered my name and made me feel special. The positive energy was very infectious, and I can't thank the staff enough for the wonderful experience! read more

This place was such a treat to come to once restaurants reopened! Our first visit was actually during the pandemic, and we were very excited to visit. Like another reviewer noted, the restaurant is nothing like what you would expect just from driving up from the parking lot. Very boring, lots of concrete from that view! Once you walk around back, it's super cute. A very classy tiki restaurant. I expected it to be cheesy, but it actually wasn't! I haven't been inside, so no thoughts on that, but the outside ambience is great, and also huge. Lots and lots of seating available. Our server was very nice, and prompt. Everything also came out at a good pace. Especially our appetizers! Very quickly. We ordered two cocktails to start - I got a tiki style one, of course, and it was delicious. The drink menu is just large enough to have fun with, but not so overwhelming that you can't make a decision. They of course have a full bar to make other drinks as well. The food was more of a 3 star place, from what we ordered at least? What we got was good, just not 5 star restaurant great. But that's not why you're coming here. You're coming here from good service, good food, and a great atmosphere. That's definitely good enough for me! If the food was fine dining quality, you'd have to pay a TON more. We really did enjoy the pork eggrolls too, I probably could have eaten another order! Also love their weekly specials. All you can eat crab legs on Wednesdays, wing night on Mondays, brunch on weekend with cheap drinks! Check out their website for lots of info. Thank you so much, Tropics, for hosting us during such crazy times! We really felt like it was 2019 instead of 2020. :) read more

Tropics - Grilled Shrimp Skewers - Bars Near Me - Morgantown, West Virginia

Well, had lunch there today. There was a DJ and the pre-performance music was loud. Crazy loud. We asked if they could turn it down but the waitress said she's tried a few times (for other tables) and they refused. Once the singer started the volume was much better. The kalua pork nachos were good - but I don't care for the blue and red chips (that seemed to run color on the plate?) The short ribs were partially cooked, partially raw. I did like them, but I think other folks might balk at raw short rib. The flourless chocolate cake - daughter loved it. I think if the music wasn't so freaking loud the experience would have been better. Waitress was great. Service was super fast. Place has a lot of promise. And Polynesian food is salty. I get that. Would I go back? If they add some spam musubi I'll consider it. read more

This was out first dining experience in months due to Covid and it was glorious! Wednesdays is AYCE crabs and so that's what we did. Outside tables were safely distanced from one another and the staff wore masks. We were greeted and ordered drinks. I started out with the raspberry long island iced tea. It was sweet, tart, and perfect. The AYCE crabs come with a side salad, corn, and some hush puppies. But I would not be distracted. I nibbled lightly and awaited my crabs. They arrived quickly and were great. Service did start to get a little inconsistent, but I understand they had reopened not too long ago. We had to remind them about drinks we ordered, but the guy who brought around the crab was on top of it. We never ran out. The outdoor dining was wonderful and it's not what you expect as you pull into the parking lot. It's relaxing and backs into a golf course. It's feels like you're at a tiki type bar, but it's not cheesy. Definitely worth the visit if your in the area and want to feel like your on vacation. read more

Been here a couple of times around Sunday brunch. Great atmosphere with the palm trees and laid back ambience. Food is relatively decent but nothing to write home about. Bar area will play F1 if it's a race weekend. Great arcade area which functions like a mini Dave and Busters for the kids. read more

We have eaten there twice. First time was amazing. Tonight a little less. Good service. Food was hot. My dinner( pulled pork)was VERY salty to the point I could not eat it. The biggest disappointment is sitting between a exterior door and the casino door. They have a smoking receptacle right outside the door. I have a cigarette allergy, The clouds of smoke coming in and out for the casino was way too much for me. We will go back to the restaurant. My husband loves the all you can eat crab. Next time I will not be sitting in the area near the casino and the exterior door. read more

Good food and atmosphere. I had a ribeye steak and it was cooked to perfection. Also tried the pork nachos for an appetizer and it was great. read more

Was expecting more than a sports bar :/ I ordered the kalua pig nachos, they weren't bad but.... they weren't anything to write home about. The pork was actually really yummy, but the dressings were bland. Store bought guac, mediocre salsa, Taco Bell level sour cream, etc. Sprinkle some jalapeño salsa on and it makes it a little better. The chips weren't even that good. My friend had the fish tacos, she said they were greasy. Not worth the drive from campus. read more
