After Nearly a Decade Closed, a Business Staple for WVU Students for Decades has Reopened its Doors


The Sunnyside Superette, an independent grocery and convenience store located in Morgantown’s Sunnyside neighborhood for decades, has officially reopened, according to their Instagram account.


 

The business began in the 1930s as the Sunnyside Fruit Market, which moved down the street to 2047 University Avenue in the 1940s and opened as the Superette Market Grocery.


 


The business name changed to the Sunnyside Superette in the 1950s. The Sunnyside Superette was popular among local families who lived in Sunnyside in the mid-twentieth century and remained popular among Sunnyside’s student residents in the late twentieth century. In 2015, the Sunnyside Superette closed, its owner and patrons citing the new Sheetz located at University Place. 


 


With the recent closing of the University Place Sheetz, community members began to plan a comeback of the historic Sunnyside Superette.  The owners of the adjacent Sunny’s Bar and Almost Heaven Bar and Grill revitalized this historic establishment.


 


According to the post, the hours of operation are Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 3 a.m.; Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 3:30 a.m., and Sunday from noon to midnight.
