"Hot roast beef and hot turkey are each served in the same configuration, between slices of tender white bread and accompanied by mashed potatoes, the whole plate blanketed with gravy."
Michael Stern
"Vegetable soup."
Sam Meyer
"The concentrated berry flavor of this pie was nearly intoxicating. Had we not accompanied our meal with a chocolate milk shake (a good one!), we would have ordered this wedge a la mode."
Michael Stern
"Covered in a tangy tomato sauce, stuffed cabbage is a popular Friday-only special."
Cliff Strutz
"As good as the fruit pies are here, the cream pies, like this tall meringued chocolate pie, are also first-rate."
Cliff Strutz
"Ruby & Ketchy's peach berry pie (peaches, cherries, and blueberries) is further proof they have a real way with pies here."
Cliff Strutz
"A very satisfying bacon cheeseburger"
Sam Meyer
"If you order a ham dinner, the slice of ham arrives alone on a plate. A brace of side dishes comes separately."
Michael Stern
"BLT"
Sam Meyer
"The thick-crusted honey-dipped chicken is a specialty of the house."
Cliff Strutz
"A snug booth at Ruby and Ketchy's. The knotty pine paneling is matched by the walls. This picture was taken late September. Note the autumn-colored floral decor."
Michael Stern
"Ruby & Ketchy's is off the beaten path, but worth it."
Sam Meyer
"Few travelers would ever accidentally discover this obscure little eatery, but if you are in the area and hungry, it's worth seeking out."
Michael Stern
Ruby and Ketchy's is a charming little out-of-the-way diner in the Cheat Lake area east of Morgantown. It's open for three meals a day, and its knotty-pine booths and counter are favorite places for locals to come for square meals and conversation. Opened by Ruby Nicholson in 1958, who was soon joined by husband Ketchy, it's still run by descendants of the beloved couple; and many of the recipes, including every-Tuesday meat loaf, vegetable soup, and chili are Ruby's.
