Medallion Restaurant

Had breakfast was very good for a small town spot.   Mostly townies, but service was good and coffee was always full.   Big breakfast is the way to go!

The choices of restaurants are limited in Philippi, West Virginia. I think it'd be more fair to review and judge this restaurant based on the fact that this is a local spot in a small town like Philippi.  But the food and service should speak for itself. Therefore I can't help but still give a 2 star review--

"Townies" come here for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They had a lunch buffet but it didn't look appetizing to me.  Someone mentioned they had too many vegetable dishes going on (haha)!  Bottomless coffee - yay! Except we had difficulty getting our waitress' attention to refill our coffee cups when they were empty.  This place reminds me of a local version of Denny's.  That means jelly, creamer, butter, and sugar comes in little packets.

I ordered the Steak Hoagie with waffle fries.  I think I make a better steak hoagie personally! I should've mentioned I prefer my bread toasted but I didn't want anyone spitting in my bread (i.e. the movie Waiting from 2005 about restaurants and food). I already hassled about more coffee and changing my regular fries to waffle fries.  Waitress was not happy with me! But i think my demands were relatively normal! Anywho, back to the sandwich. Thin slices of steak, green pepper, and mozzarella cheese thrown on a hoagie bun.  Sounds appetizing but it was only so-so.  Waffle fries on the other hand were BOMB! Crunchy, seasoned, fried waffle cut potatoes that I drowned in ketchup.  Sooooo goooood.

Prices are decent though and there aren't too many other eateries around here so i would stop by if you're ever in this area and hungry.

Good breakfast spot
