We’ve been here twice in 2 days. Really friendly server and neat place. I highly recommend the Skidder Panini (formerly Shoofly Panini) and Apple Pie Panini!

After a long day of fishing the local rivers, Whistle Punk was a welcome surprise in Richwood. Cool atmosphere, awesome server, and excellent food. We had the Loaded Gorgonzola Fries, the Paul Nettles burger, and Chicken Chesapeake. The chicken was some of the juiciest and best cooked I’ve ever had, and I look forward to trying to recreate the gorgonzola cream sauce at home. I don’t know if I’ll ever be in West Virginia again, but eating at Whistle Punk will forever be a great vacation memory.

Food was really good. Stopped in on a Friday evening, outside there was a young guy playing guitar and singing. Nice atmosphere.

Everything about the Whistle Punk is inviting, the feel of the restaurant and servers are great vibes. The food is exceptional definitely not what you expect to find in the Rural WV town of Richwood.

We had heard good things about this establishment and weren’t disappointed. We went for the Sunday brunch, but a person can view the full menu by googling it. Service was great and the owners are so friendly, making us feel right at home immediately. Our selections, the Cajun scramble and the Monte Cristo were spot on. We will let you all debate the prices, but for us, the quality, atmosphere, and service made this place a real bargain. We will definitely be back.

The Whistle Punk is a fantastic local restaurant worth checking out of your in the Richwood WV area. The setting is an old bakery then an old clothing store that was converted to its current condition. There is a beautiful outdoor eating area with a Koi pond and beautiful murals. The menu is rich with cultural and eclectic flavors and names. Sandwiches, burgers, starters, salads, desserts, and a cratf beer selection all round out the menu. The service was top notch. If your looking to support a local business and enjoy a fantastic eating experience then stop by The Whistle Punk.

My experience at whistle punk was exceptional. Service was delightful, attentive and helpful when it came to recommendations for dishes. We started with the crab dip, an appetizer rich in cheese and often much better than those served in restaurants in Mary land. Both drinks came by recommendation, a sour milkshake IPA and a dry Chardonnay. Both were to our liking. Steak was perfectly cooked, and asparagus was particularly delightful with the additional buttery sauce. The grilled apple panini was toasted perfectly with complementary raisin bread and vanilla ice cream. This will be a drive from Toronto that we will endure again for the food.

Love Whistle Punk! Cozy inside and great outdoor seating where you might get to pet a cat. Very tasty menu, I especially like the fish tacos. Super friendly wait staff even when they are running around like crazy because this place does get busy. Love the charming floral arrangements on the tables and appreciate the cleanliness of the restrooms.

Great atmosphere, very friendly staff, and delicious food and drinks. A young business that does well to manage the unexpected traffic of a small town with sudden booms of tourism.
