Do you love hunting down unique dining experiences? In West Virginia, we’ve got more than our fair share of unique eateries, and here’s yet another amazing one to add to the list: a restaurant on a roof! As a bonus, this rooftop eatery boasts one of the best views in the whole state.
If you were to climb to the top of Seneca Rocks and look back down at the valley below, what might you see?

If your eyes are sharp enough (and your knowledge of the valley comprehensive enough), one iconic building you would spot is the Harper’s Old Country Store.

And do you know what’s perched on the roof of this grand old building? A restaurant! The Front Porch Restaurant, to be exact.

If you head upstairs from the general store and step into the restaurant, you’ll find a clean, neat dining room typical of many restaurants around West Virginia.

But if you opt to dine out on the porch, which extends over the roof of Harper’s Old Country Store, you’ll realize that this is no typical dining experience.

If you’ve never eaten on a roof before, you might not have thought much about what an excellent vantage point it makes. And it doesn’t hurt that there’s a view like this one of the famed Seneca Rocks to look at from your rooftop perch.
