This place doesn't take reservations. It's a bar. I made reservations here on homecoming weekend and showed up to a private event and it being only a cocktail bar with no seating available.

Does not accept reservations despite what online accounts say. It seemed like a great place to grab a drink, had a private event going on so couldn't stay to enjoy. Made a reservation on OpenTable but arrived and was told they don't even take reservations.

Excellent food and service. The Manhattan chowder was very good and filling. The chicken quesadilla was very tasty and full of chicken as was the Caesar salad with the smoked chicken. The roast beef was tender and tasty. We stopped for lunch but could envision this a fun place in the evening when more people could “throw the axes”! There are back rooms for larger groups. Very clean and well maintained!

Bartenders were nice, bar itself is cozy and nice ambiance. However, it seems the drinks have significantly gone down hill since they opened. The aviation tasted like sugary lemonade, no taste of gin. She did offer to make another and I appreciated that but declined. Would also expect fresh ingredients for a $15 drink, not juice concentrate.. Limited and out of season cocktail menu. They need to revamp their menu, ingredients and quality of cocktails they’re serving. We will not be returning :(

Drinks were great. Would have preferred a more focused & friendly bartender, though.

Went here on a Friday midday to enjoy a drink with my lady, and it’s a nice bar overall. There is limited tap beer but that’s ok, they still have a decent variety with bottled included. It’s a smaller bar, but better then many other hotel bars I have been in.

Always a great espresso martini.

I have really mixed feelings about this place. I stopped here a while back after some shopping in Morgantown. I was looking for a nice bar for a cocktail and appetizer by myself, and I found the Anvil and Ax (inside the Hotel Morgan) menu via google and decided to stop. Street parking is available all around. The doorman was so nice! There were several couples at the bar, so I sat at one of the tables near the bar. It took a while for the bartender to come over to me and give me a menu. I ordered the french martini and asked if there was a food menu available. She said they didn't serve food until later in the day, even though the online menu said otherwise. My martini was great. Service was subpar. She set my martini on the edge of the bar and I had to go up and get it- no big deal, I just thought it was odd since they weren't busy. The bartender never came back over to me; I went up to the bar to close out and pay my bill like 15 minutes after I finished my drink. There are certainly some kinks to work out, especially with service, but this place has potential to be very nice!

Good cocktails and a nice vibe. A little pricey, but it’s a cocktail bar at a hotel so what do you expect? Still I would go back again.

Beautiful bar with a classic look in the historic hotel downtown. Clean appearance, great service, good selection of drinks and food options.

The food was amazing! I ordered a burger from here as I was hungry and it is in the basement of my hotel. I wasn't excepting the gourmet juice burger with aged American cheese and amazing house made chips. 5/5
