“best place in hollidaysburg to eat amazing food and service“

“Nice outside seating area, but we chose inside seating due to the summer heat.

Our eight orders were quickly taken. It took some time before we were served, but nearly all of the orders were served at the same time. Attentive service throughout our meal.“

“One of my favorite spots! It really has a “Cheers” kind of atmosphere. It’s cozy, low-key, and the food, drink, and service are phenomenal! The staff is very welcoming and makes you feel at home for your visit. When in doubt, Knick it!! Cheers 🍻“

“Zmac's is a diamond in the rough. We were passing through the area, looking for a place to grab a drink and lunch. We came across Zmac's and decided to give it a shot. This place is a 10/10. The curb appeal is nice but doesn't give the venue the credit it deserves. Once you get through the door, you'll find a very spacious cozy inviting upbeat atmosphere and staff. Very inviting and the menu offers something for everyone. Kids menu, fried food all the way to comfort food dishes. Portions were very plentiful, packed full of flavor and at a drive thru price. We were both big eaters but ended up taking to go boxes. Kid and family friendly. Servers and bartenders were super friendly and although it was a packed house, made us feel like we were the only ones there. On top of all of that, the place was very clean, to include the bathroom. You could hit a box store but if you live near Zmac's or passing through the area, why would you? Zmac's is the spot. We will be back even though its a 40 minute trip. its worth it.“

“I messed my own order up lol I accidentally clicked Ceaser salad instead of Blackened shrimp salad. I didn't realize I messed up my own order until I got the food and was like omg I got the wrong thing. It wasn't until AFTER I submitted the feedback to the restaurant. I went and checked my confirmation order and I totally did accidentally order the chicken Ceasar. However, the chicken Ceasar was AWESOME and I was totally not disappointed.“

“Great food, service and of course the super burgers.“

“I love Timmy’s very good hot food yummy in my tum tum delicious beer salad pork chops and wings yum yum yum yummy“

“perfect food start to finish...best experience by far, even against more expensive restaurants. will be back for sure!“

“Just there on Thursday 9-18-25. Bus trip. The food was excellent and very tasty. No one had any negative remarks. Desserts were outstanding, especially the cream puffs highly recommend everyone to experience the high quality of cooking“

“Spacious …great wait staff…delicious quantities of food“

“I have always liked their food and was happy when they finally started doing deliveries. I have ordered about 5 times or so now, and disappointed every single time. I dont know why, but the food is always inconsistent, where sometimes its okay, but other times its clearly cooked rushed and with old oil. I also have made alterations to my food, such as adding extra toppings when ordering online and every single time, none of them are done. I even pay upcharge fees for things like adding bacon, requesting certain sauces, and they are still done standard. Either the system they use for deliveries is not working right, or the cooks handling deliveries just dont care. I hate to leave a bad review, but my order tonight was honestly my last attempt ordering now. None of my burger alterations were done, as well as it and my chicken strips were beyond overcooked and dry. It's just not right for it to be wrong every time.“

“This was my first time eating in at Jack and George's. However, I've had to go multiple times. The quality and portion sizes are phenomenal every time. My favorite thing on the menu is their mac and cheese, but you can only get that on Friday, so make sure to stop in then.

Tonight, they were down a server and had two waitresses serving the entire place while it was packed. They did so with ease and had our food out quickly while checking in to make sure everything was OK. The amount of food was crazy. I got a spicy Hawaiian chicken sandwich, which I didn't know came it chips and an order of fries. Most of it came home with me because it I was so full. I did get a cake to go as they are decadent and worth every calorie.

The only thing I gave a 4 star was the atmosphere. The tables are close together, and it was extremely loud tonight to where I had to almost yell to talk to the people at my table. However, the bathrooms were clean and taken care of, which is always a plus.

There is plenty of parking in any of the 3 lots right beside the restaurant. They do ask that you dont park in front of one of the neighboring houses since they do have lot parking available.

Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Great place to eat and drink!!“

“I am from out of town and had to order a tray of food for my family. I spoke to a great staff and helped me with the order. The order was perfect and my family enjoyed their meal. I plan on using this company again. Thank you so much for helping me over the phone.“

“Local "Dive Bar". Decent food. Most bartenders are great. The atmosphere depends on the day. Located near PSU Altoona campus so the students do frequent some nights. Most of the time, it's relatively chill, but there are some nights where there are nights and people getting rowdy. Usually on Karaoke nights from what I've picked up. They have trivia and bingo during the week, which I'd do again. Overall, not a terrible experience, but certainly room for improvement.“

“I've never had a bad experience at the US Hotel Tavern; I've waited patiently for the best macaroni and cheese that I've ever had, and I've rushed in and out for a bowl of Crab Soup on my break. They're a local business that always goes out of their way to support other local businesses, and events within the community.“

“Great old time food choices.“

“I was just here a few days ago for the Halloween Party with a live band on Friday night. The bartenders were friendly, I ordered hot wings that were tasty and just the right amount of spicy, and I really enjoyed the people and the atmosphere overall. I will definitely go back.“

“Can’t say enough about Molly’s. The words on the menu don’t do the food justice. It is absolutely amazing. The service is always impeccable, and the cozy ambiance makes you feel right at home. 100% worth the drive to beautiful St. Boni from wherever you may be. Unequivocally, this is a gem that no one should miss.“

“I definitely recommend ANDY'S for the food and also due to the fact that it is owned by great people. The wings are delicious and I particularly enjoyed the honey mustard and sweet heat ones. A+“

“It’s not a bad place.
Food was good, decently priced.
Nothing to write home about but it seems that you’d better tell your waitress everything at once bc you’re not gonna see her much (it’s normal in this town just not what I’m used to).“

“Overall, a great Altoona bar for mixed drinks, shots and bar food - clean bar top and attentive bartenders. If you don’t smoke this is not the bar for you. There’s a bar, the next door over that’s owned by the same owners that’s a great non-smoking option (Zach’s). Regardless of which, if a PA team is playing they’re showing it on several television angles within the bar. There’s an ATM, cash only cigarette machine, and several lottery machines at your disposal.“

“I've been coming here on and off since opening experienced a few things but always came back. tonight our waitress was probably the best one we've had there. Ann Marie! she deserves recognition. checked on us, very pleasant and doesn't rush and takes her time with you. We hope we get her again! In the past service was always lacking. Not tonight!“

“The steak was cooked a perfect medium rare. Excellent loaded sweet potato. I went to move the check to the end of the table, pushed my glass by accident and it smashed all over. The one worker was so nice about it but i feel awful!! She made sure i didnt get cut/hurt and was very forgiving. Sorry Longhorn. You have 10/10 stars for everything in there! Our waitress was great too!“

“great atmosphere! nice little non smoking bar! bartenders are amazing!!!! dart boards, gambling!!! go see Chris, laine or Kelly slinging drinks when your in there!!!“

“Food and service were excellent. But the booth seats are worn and torn. I would think that might be a priority to make customers comfortable“

“All around good place to eat , the folks who wait on you treat you like family .“

“poor service. three tables with people and 15 minutes to be acknowledged. orderd a drink and menu's. well got a drink. see ya by.“

“Came here to play pool and munch on appetizers. The staff were friendly and the atmosphere was great! Food was good and we want to go back! If you're looking to play pool, I'd recommend coming early because there's only one table.“

“I got a 6 inch toasted Italian sub, and breaded cauliflower yesterday and it was great. I've ate here multiple times getting different items imcluding the pizza and they do not disappoint !“

“Best chicken enchilada soup I’ve had. More than enough food in the fajitas.“

“Easily one of the best local spots for consistently good food, great service, and to just catch a game. If you're not from the area and are looking for a spot for a dinner bite, this is it. Might I suggest the All American classic go to or perhaps the seasonal Fall Gobbler. Finish off with a creme brulee or tart pie desert“

“Great server and food 😊 Very crowded and we still got served quickly.“

“Had an amazing breakfast with my friend, Moon over my hammy, and an omelet. but I'm writing about our server, she was wonderful, I'm a retired server and she brought my faith back in servers. Makala (I'm spelling that wrong, I'm sorry, but try not to loose her. when my friend grabbed the check I wanted to pay, Makala's response was awesome! Thank you sweet girl!“
