Generations Restaurant & Pub

I ordered the Deck Salad with grilled chicken. Don't expect to eat the whole thing, it is huge. Loved it! It had blackberries as big as my thumb, strawberries and blue berries. And, of course, it had dried cranberries, pecans and feta cheese. I would order it again. I wish they would bring back the Reuben dog. It also was delicious.

Excellent food selection with plenty of indoor seating and (partly) covered outdoor deck seating. Occasional live music on outdoor stage. Friendly/courteous staff.

Walking into Generations Pub felt less like entering a restaurant and more like stepping through a wormhole into a parallel universe — one where time doesn’t move, food has no flavor, and customer service is just a myth whispered about by drunken ghosts.

The air was thick with the scent of stale beer, old fryer oil, and lost dreams. The floor had a glue-like stick to it, as if the very building itself was trying to hold me hostage. Every table looked like it had survived a hundred regrettable decisions. I sat down, not because I wanted to — but because the chair wouldn’t let go of my jeans.

The server eventually wandered over, eyes glazed like they’d seen too much, or maybe not enough. She took my order like I was interrupting something important — like an existential crisis or a YouTube video. I ordered breakfast. What I got… was silence. Time stretched. The walls breathed. The ketchup bottle judged me.

When the food finally arrived — possibly by time travel, because it sure wasn’t cooked in this dimension — it looked like it had given up halfway through its own creation. The eggs tasted like sorrow. The bacon was a suggestion. The toast? An abstract concept.

Every bite brought me closer to a spiritual reckoning: Why am I here? Who hurt me? Why is the syrup cold and runny?

By the end of it all, I wasn’t full. I was just confused. Confused, mildly offended, and a little sticky.

Generations Pub isn’t a bar. It’s a fever dream. One you’ll regret remembering.

We had an amazing experience at Generations Restaurant and Pub! The perogies and boneless chicken wings were absolutely delicious — full of flavor and cooked perfectly. We also tried the liver and onions, which were done just right, and topped it off with one of their lava cake desserts — rich, warm, and decadent.

Our waitress was outstanding — not only was she attentive and friendly, but she also shared a quick history of the restaurant and gave us great recommendations for places to check out while we’re visiting Wheeling. Her hospitality truly made the experience memorable.

Highly recommend stopping in if you’re in the area!

We stopped here on our way back from Pittsburgh and sat out on the patio. Great atmosphere next to the water and an old brick warehouse. The fish and chips was so fresh and delicious! The service was very friendly too. Will make this a trip destination for sure!

The food never disappoints. We've been there at least 3-4 times. I love the blackened salmon. We sat outside by the stream. Casual, pleasant seating.
Our last server was not the best customer service experience. We waited a long time to get a refill.
But overall will continue to be our go-to near wheeling.
