Where do you go when you’re in the mood for chicken wings? If you’re from West Virginia, you probably go to the Drover’s Inn in Wellsburg. It’s been around for a long time – the building is on the National Register of Historic Places – but that only adds charm to the experience of chowing down on the best wings you’ve ever tasted!
Tucked away outside Wellsburg, West Virginia is a historic brick building, the Drover’s Inn Restaurant and Tavern. Ask anyone – you won’t find better wings anywhere else. Drover’s Inn makes them extra crispy and extra flavorful, with tons of flavor options: Mild, Medium, Hot, Suicidal, Atomic, Hurt Me, Honey BBQ, Buffalo Garlic, Sweet Hot Oriental, Butter Garlic, Garlic Parmesan.

3 weeks agoThis was an experience I was not expecting. A friend who lives nearby brought me here as he had been telling me about their chicken wings for months. It was everything he hyped it up to be. And I got the soft pretzel and it was so good as well. Everything overall was great and I think eating in that dark basement made the experience even better. Everyone was super friendly and accommodating. I will definitely return.

a month agoOne of my favorite places to go when I go back home to Wheeling. Wings are the best along with the atmosphere prefer a basement seat. Every visit is a new memory of wings, beer with friends & family... See ya there next time in town.

a year agoOn a scale of romances to documentaries, Drover's Inn is a bodice-ripper romance. Tucked away off of Washington Pike, it's easy to miss, but it's definitely something to turnaround for. Parking is plentiful, and our group was seated quickly. While our local friends encouraged us to order the wings, I deviated for the baby back ribs, and I honestly should have stuck with the wings! The baby back ribs were dry and only saved by the sauce. Drover's Inn is so charming, and I hope to return to try the wings!

2 months agoWe love this place. Sitting in the tavern downstairs the staff is amazing. The garlic parm boneless wings are delicious. I suggest the Bavarian pretzels and beer cheese. Even better dip the boneless wings in the beer cheese. Always 5 stars in our eyes!
