Going to Piccolo Paula's an experience that I never miss out on in visiting Tucker county, and it is always a highlight of a trip. His food is divine. The menu is diverse, featuring seafood, local catches, and even worldly delights. The specials are magical. Crab? He's the master. Alligator? Still waiting to try this catch. His local salmon dishes and oak barrel, top tier steak? It's life changing. Every meal feels like a gift, every bite a reminder of why this place stands above the rest. If you find yourself anywhere near Tucker County, don't just stop by--make a pilgrimage. Thanks for the crab lump, shrimp flatbread. It's pure joy.

Tucked into the mountains of West Virginia in the small ski town of Thomas, TipTop Coffee feels…read morelike the kind of place you hope to stumble upon while wandering Appalachian back roads. The town itself has that perfect mountain-arts vibe--historic brick buildings, quiet streets, and a steady flow of hikers, skiers, and road-trippers--and TipTop fits right into that rhythm. The shop is cozy and unpretentious, the kind of café where the warmth from the espresso machine and the conversations around the room cut through the mountain chill. It feels local in the best way--welcoming without trying too hard. But the real highlight is the coffee. The cup I had was excellent: clean, balanced, and clearly prepared by people who care about the craft. It had the kind of clarity and sweetness that stands out, especially when you're used to road-trip coffee stops that are just "good enough." This was genuinely memorable. If you're passing through the Canaan Valley / Blackwater Falls area or chasing powder at Timberline or Canaan Valley Resort, TipTop Coffee is absolutely worth the stop. It's proof that even in a small Appalachian ski town, you can still find a cup that would hold its own in much bigger coffee cities. A mountain gem.

Wanting to share that above sandwich, was handed a "butter knife" and told they could not cut it. Hmm, how did they slice that bagel in kitchen? Served only in a leaky paper sleeve, was told there were no plates. But saw them sitting clean on shelf. Paper cup, no mug. But I could buy a handcrafted mug, for $60. They had chocolate bars: $10 for 2 oz, made in yes, Brooklyn. (Did I not chose to travel to WV?) TT trying hard to be hipster. Later visited Happy and More bakery/cafe one block down. Friendly, cozy, coffee was $1.50 less AND free refill. Nice homemade baked goods. Cafe is well-named.

We ordered two Americanos. One was surprisingly good. The other tasted terrible. How'd that happen?…read moreWho knows. Baked goods were terribly sweet...not edible for us...straight into trash after one bite. The internet did not work and there is no seating in the shop. The two women working there seemed overwhelmed and unhappy...we didn't feel welcome there. Seems like the typical WV vibe. Why even bother opening a coffee shop?

However there are some things that are off about this place. Firstly whenever I order a coffee they'll give it to me in a random cup. Sometimes a mug, others a paper cup and even a glass cup. Not necessarily bad just odd. What is odd though is the employees reaction to not getting tips. They will give you nasty looks and lower quality service for not tipping on a 5 dollar coffee. I have one friend who was even made fun of. They will go as far as making fun of him for being gay when he isn't just for not tipping. I like supporting small businesses but the customer service needs work here.

I've been here several times and I actually like this Tip Top better than the Thomas one and I never thought I'd say that. The whole layout of this place is epic! The patrons are always smiling and friendly. The baristas are great and they are always provide friendly service and are great to chat with too. Thank you! Elkins has came a long way over the years and to have this wonderful establishment in its town is a plus for everyone including the college kids. Also, the PB&J bar is stupid good and their iced dirty chai lattes with almond milk are stupendous!!! Two must haves when visiting. Go enjoy it as much as I always do when I am in town.

The Crossing Coffee Bar sits right in the heart of Elkins and has the kind of warm, small-town café…read moreatmosphere that makes you want to like it the moment you walk in. The shop itself is inviting, and the two girls working behind the counter were genuinely sweet and welcoming. Their hospitality gave the place an immediate charm and made the experience pleasant on a personal level. Unfortunately, the coffee didn't quite match the warmth of the service. I ordered a flat white, but what came out was much closer to a poorly made cappuccino. The milk texture and ratios were off, and the drink lacked the smooth integration and balance you expect from a proper flat white. There were several basic preparation issues that suggested the baristas may not have had much training in espresso technique. That said, the friendliness of the staff goes a long way, and places like this often improve quickly with a little more focus on coffee fundamentals. With better training and attention to the craft, The Crossing Coffee Bar could easily grow into a solid stop for Elkins locals and travelers alike. Right now, it's a welcoming café with kind people behind the counter--just a step behind where it could be on the coffee itself.
