“Love this place.“

“Boxer’s Café is truly one of Huntingdon’s local gems — a cozy, affordable spot that’s perfect for lunch or dinner. My mom and I decided to stop in while getting ready for my move to college, and it ended up being one of the most enjoyable meals we’ve had in a while. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel welcome with friendly smiles and quick, attentive service that really stood out.

The food was absolutely fantastic — we both ordered burgers that were juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. You can tell everything is made with care, and the quality definitely goes beyond what you’d expect for the price. The sides were fresh, and the portions were generous, making it a great value overall.

What really added to the charm of the visit was the atmosphere. The café had the door open, letting in a gentle summer breeze that made the whole place feel light, relaxing, and full of small-town character. It was the kind of meal that leaves you feeling content and refreshed, with that comforting sense of community that small local restaurants are known for.

Boxer’s Café is the kind of place that makes you want to come back again and again — whether it’s for a casual dinner with family, a friendly lunch, or just to enjoy great food in a warm and welcoming setting. Highly recommend it to anyone passing through Huntingdon or looking for a local favorite!“

It’s my go-to spot every time I visit Huntingdon, especially when I’m craving a good, hearty breakfast.

The atmosphere is calm, cozy, and welcoming, with that classic diner charm that’s hard to find these days. It’s the kind of place where you can sit back, take your time, and enjoy your meal without any rush. The staff are kind, attentive, and always make you feel like a regular, even if you’re just passing through.

Whether you’re meeting friends, grabbing a quiet breakfast, or starting your day with comfort food that hits the spot, Top’s Diner never disappoints. It’s a wonderful small-town gem that keeps me coming back every time I’m in Huntingdon.“

“I was craving some wings so after googling some places, chose The Village Tavern. I started with The Banana Pepper Crunch Roll because it was different, it wasn't anything that I couldn't live without but not bad. The Hot Garlic sauce on the wings was AMAZING!!! I'll definitely be back for those. All in all, there was karaoke going on with some pretty good singers and the service was good. Id recommend.“

“today we surprised these guys with a table of 7. it took time to get our food because they were already really busy, but they were very attentive to our needs as we waited. I apologize to anyone who had to wait for their food because of us. however, the food was exceptional. all of it. plenty portions and left with our belly's full. we walked away feeding all of us for about 100 bucks. I highly recommend this place. but be prepared to wait a little for authentic homecooked food.“

“Great meal and good service.“

“Love the Diner. We frequent it often. My message is to customers....Enjoy your food and conversation. Then, observe how crowded they are and whether they are turning people away and MOVE ON if that is the case. My husband and I just had breakfast. A table with three ladies was beside us. They were there when we sat down; already finished eating. They were there when we left. I saw at least four parties leave because of the unavailability of a table. I even made a comment to them that the Diner was losing business, hoping they would take the hint and move on. One commented that it was another's birthday and they could sit as long as they wanted. The waitress did not help the situation as I overheard her tell them to stay as long as they wanted. Customers -- Please don't be so rude.“

“Love the vibe. Oysters are amazing. Sunsets to die for. Please remove last names of the workers on their shirts! This seems a little dangerous in the world we live in, where you can find out just about anything online, from a first and last name. For example the bartender, Lizzy. Her last name was displayed on her shirt and all I had to do was put it into fb brought her right up including the year she was born. I’m not a stalker but THEY exist and I’m scared for any female working here! Please for the love of God, remove the last name of all staff on their shirts!“

“We really enjoy Checkers. The food is always tasty, the portions are large, and the prices are reasonable. In addition, the staff works hard, they are friendly, and also very efficient. They do a great business there, and we would recommend them any time.“

“Nice tavern out in the mountains of central pa. & excellent food“

“Had a crisp chicken bacon sub. Delicious! The onion rings were crisp. Will come here again“
