If you go to West Virginia, and are in search of some great food, then look no further than a little diner situated in downtown Morgantown, called Tailpipes. Tailpipes is a small diner-styled restaurant, modeled to look like an old-style diner. The atmosphere is fun, inviting, and built with special touches, like sparkling red and white booths, a few arcade games near the entrance, and a bar to eat at if you prefer. One of the special, local things about Tailpipes is the way that children can color on a coloring sheet, and the restaurant management will post the drawings around the walls of the restaurant.
While the atmosphere of Tailpipes is certainly a nice feature, the real selling point of this burger joint has to be the food and the specialty milkshakes. There are so many options to choose from when it comes to burgers, and on top of this, you can also choose from many classic diner options like chicken tenders, fries and sweet potato fries, salads, and fried foods like pickles, mozzarella sticks, mac ’n’ cheese, green tomatoes, and onion rings. One of the common choices is to build your own burger, since there are so many toppings available, but if you’re looking for something a little more special and unique, there is also a full list of specialty burgers to order.h

These include, but are not limited to, the Charger, which has peanut butter, fried bananas, smoked bacon, red onion, and pepper jack on a white bun; the Chevelle, which has beer-battered onion rings, house made chips, American cheese, and citrus honey mustard on a white bun; the Challenger, which has an ingredient called fire sauce, banana peppers, jalapeños, iceberg lettuce, and pepper jack cheese on a white bun; and the Barracuda, which has grilled pineapple, smoked bacon, caramelized onion, mozzarella cheese, and sesame-ginger teriyaki on a white bun. In addition to these crazy burger choices, most meals that have fries or chips come with the restaurant’s signature fry sauce, which is a secret recipe of a savory and somewhat tangy flavor.
The next list of items on the menu that usually has customers raving is the astounding list of specialty milkshakes. Although these milkshakes are pretty high on the price scale, most would agree that they’re worth it. Most of the milkshakes are really well decorated, too. Some of them even have multi-color icings that drip down the insides of the clear cups, making them look exciting and sugar-rush worthy. There’s a whole list of them, including cookies and cream, chocolate, vanilla, Fruity Pebbles, Nutella-based, and many more.
Overall, Tailpipes has a lot to offer in the world of restaurants known for burgers. Adding a modern twist on the classic diner-style restaurant, providing the classic diner foods and milkshakes with specialty recipes and ingredients, this dining experience is surely one you won’t want to miss out on.
