“Absolutely fabulous bakery to order a custom cake from! I could not be happier with the cake and outstanding customer service. I shared my vision with Tatiana for a custom graduation cake and she did an excellent job. Our guests were wowed! On top of that, she and her team were so accommodating when we had a last minute date change. Thank you, Tatiana and team!”
“We knew nothing about this place except for what we read in Google reviews.So glad we took a chance! Quaint, clean, excellent food and service! We will be back for sure!”
“If you build it or in this case name it they will come. Made it to Bees knees for the first time! Coffees were so good that they unfortunately didn't make it home. Yes I drank both that was after my cup of joe at home and ones with breakfast at the sunset west diner up the road. Oh and yes the one had a double shot of expresso in it don't judge it was a long 8 hr work week and late night with MLB openers on the left coast . Yes please I'll have the Ohtani with my Trout ( sorry wrong group ). The set up is not conventional, with the pick up window in the back yard (rear of the building ) Unfortunately I chose the day after a significant rain and obviously did not plan for the off the beaten path pick up situation ( I was wearing my new kicks ! ( hoka ) This is the only reason I docked the joint one star. Please support this business so they can get a landscape makeover. Pea size gravel , crushed stone , pavers , a ramp anything would Bee an upgrade to mushy grass. The coffee with 2 shots in it was my favorite, but the dark bourbon with whole milk was a close second!”
“Very friendly and an OK dine-in area. Many people came in to order/pick up who were clearly regulars. Pizza was good, not great. However, the fried cheese curds and bacon, cheese and ranch fries were delicious! Note that if ordering in, the prices have increased, but the printed menus aren't current.”
“Great place! If you are into gourmet or local foods or fresh pasta without the toil,they have it. The pasta is top notch and such a variety to try. I wish there were whole wheat options, and more options without garlic but still a great place to shop!”
“Great cheesesteak! I could tell someone knows how to make some food. Roll was soft and great, and the sandwich itself was really good. I was surprised how good of a cheesesteak it was... This place is awesome!Parking: Ample open parking”
“I'd work here but I'd rather be paid in tacos instead of money. I'm deeply upset that this spot has been open for a while and I never had their food until now. I'd buy their food even if I only had a couple dollars to my name. Customer service skills on point. The young man who took the order explained everything and offered great recommendations. 20/10 experience.”
“I’ve been here several times and can’t find one thing to complain about. Good prices, great portion sizes, friendly staff, and clean environment. The ice cream is delicious but the milkshakes are pretty stellar too. I also liked that they had a sorbet option for those who can’t have dairy.”
“Best coffee in town. Fresh menu with new specials all the time. Best soft pretzels in Centre County. Best burgers in town. Kindest service around! Restaurant is small but a buzzing, comfortable atmosphere. They have a piano inside and some outdoor tables too. Nothing beats their ingredients & the prices are worth the quality. Bring quarters for parking!”
“Absolutely fantastic. The menu constantly changes, and they somehow improve upon the previous version every single time.Love the atmosphere and people!Dietary restrictions: Almost everything was gluten-free.Parking: Can’t wait for the new parking lot, bc the current one is a bit small.”
“So good. My family went in because we’d never had any of this kind of food and didn’t know what to order. They helped us make some decisions and everything was incredible! Highly recommend.”
“Phantastic Philly cheesesteak place: great phood,, super-phriendly staff. The only negative thing I have to say is that I will always regret that I did not attempt the “Cheesesteak Champ” challenge.”
“What this restaurant does well, it does particularly well. The carbonara is excellent, and easily their top entrée. The limoncello makes for an excellent dessert. Conversely, other entrées, such as the flounder, are okay but not necessarily the best you'll have. The location's ambience is very inviting, conveying, a sense of intimacy and elegance. The service is very good and attentive. It very much has the feel of a date night destination on a Thursday, Friday or Saturday evening.”
“I honestly am more than impressed at the service I received. I thought it'd be a simple in and out with what I wanted. I got way more than that! Their cheesecake was incredible and the dumplings they provided complementary were honestly the best dumplings I've ever had anywhere. It was so enjoyable and I enjoyed the experience so much I couldn't help but tip 2/3rds my order. I want people to know about this place because it deserves the attraction. Incredible experience and food.”
“So from the perspective of a Lebanese woman: Life changing Halal truck for Middle Easterners in State college!! I’m from Detroit with family in Dearborn and I haven’t found any food out here that can compare to the amazing dishes I eat back home and make myself. UNTIL NOW! This is the best Halal Truck EVER!! The one on Pugh street is a scammin sham compared to these guys!! They’re tucked in a space on Calder by Cafe Alina and I assure you, you will not regret it. The lamb melts in your mouth, the chicken is so savory, fish is phenomenal, the white sauce is ON POINT, and they make their own homemade hot sauce!! And they’re so nice!! I found this place about a week and a half ago and have been there about seven times since ? Please check them out!!Seriously. Better than penn kabob, penn pide, totally blows pita cabana out the water, and makes the other trucks look like a joke. I know my Arab food ?”
“Went to Bonfire Old Fashioned BBQ tonight for fish. Wow, what a great experience. Guy directed us in, held the door, welcomed us, seated us and we didn’t have one server, we had several. The guy (I’m guessing owner manager) cheerfully gave us a sample of their chili over creamy Mac n cheese. It’s a specialty of theirs. Superb. Husb had fish dinner and I had fish sandwich. Superb. Multiple people checked on us several times, free drink refills without a wait. We were thanked for coming in and I believe the lady of the place escorted us out an exit they don’t use on regular basis because it was closer to where we parked and flat covered walk for my husband walking with a cane. We wanted dessert but no room; servings are awesome. We’re going back some evening just to have a treat. Clean, warm atmosphere, spacious seating, great food and service as well as appropriate pricing. Highly recommend. Thank you to the entire staff and kudos to the cook(s) for a very delightful dinner hour. We’ll be back. Lots on menu we want to try!!Parking: Plenty of parking both sides of the building.Kid-friendliness: We didn’t have kids along but overheard the welcome that was given to families. Kid menu very nice.”
“The kid at the front of Asian roots I believe, AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE! Can’t tell you how many times he smiled thanked me for my service and twice was told to have a wonderful night. I should mention I’m visiting from Kansas City (go chiefs) so finding a good taco spot out of town is priority no matter where I go. THIS IS THE ONE. Chefs kiss only thing I didn’t like was the tortilla but that’s just me I love the corn tortillas is all. Now to the food. I got 4 asada tacos that were touched with loooove. The meat almost had a bbq-ish taste to it which threw me off but caught my love buds quickly. In my city they’re very… stingy with their sauce. This place let you get your own. I tried 3. I will unshamefully admit I used my fingers to lick the rest of the sauces out even after my tacos were finished. SO GOOD! This place was definitely a hit surely not a miss. And to find out theirs more than one location! I’ll be back before I head home to the lack is sauces !”
“This place is amazing. The staff are so nice and the food/drinks are delicious. I have yet to be disappointed at the things being served and I keep finding myself coming back here. Best boba in town!”
“Vibe is a perfect college town coffee shop. The workers are friendly, the atmosphere is ideal, and the coffee is top notch. I've only eaten a blueberry muffin there, but it was great, and I would imagine their other food is quality too. Highly highly recommend to anyone living in or visiting State College/Penn State.Parking: There's free street parking right around the corner on Barnard Street. Free for 2 hours.Kid-friendliness: My 4-year-old sat there with me, no problems.”
“First time visiting and it was a cool experience. I’m not much of a beer person but I actually enjoyed their selections. It was a very busy time yet the service was great and prompt. The vibe of the space is really cool and very clean. I’ll be back!”
“Lovely shop that is a cafe and marketplace. If you are on a Paleo diet there are not many options to choose from. No beverages at all since they don't even offer herbal tea. We got the Shakshuka without the bread and the Mediterranean salad. They were both all right. The presentation was good.The girl working behind the counter was really nice and helpful in answering all the questions I had. Due to limited seating, they limit the times you can work at the Cafe or have study groups.”
“I went with my friends the food was soo delicious it was finger licking good.I loved that Uncle, Aunty (The owners of the place) were so kind and amazing I had such a wonderful time.they also have board games, guitar for all your friends do have some fun there.I go there every Saturday now. Just amazing.”
“Heather is unbelievably talented. We have used her on several occasions and she has always exceeded our expectations. She helped make our day extra special with her phenomenal skills. She is easy to work, flexible and takes all pressure off of the decision making. We will hands down be using her for many more future events.”
“Once again a great experience here! The place was packed but we were seated right away. We had a wonderful waitress that knew how to please her customers. Never had us waiting for drinks. Was there to give us a refill without us having to ask. The food was DELICIOUS! Plenty to choose from. Plenty of parking. The place was nice and clean. If you enjoyed your coffee, be sure to take a bag home as well. They sell their brand of coffee for you to enjoy later on.”
“This bakery is fantastic. All the breads I've had here are great, but my favorite is the mountain loaf. Sweet treats are OK; the main draw is the bread. They tend to close early so try to come by at least an hour or so before closing, or earlier in case anything has sold out.”
“Sher Halal Gyro has become a personal favorite for its consistently fresh, halal, and delicious meals. One of the most remarkable aspects is the speed and efficiency with which they operate. Despite the fast-paced nature of street food, the team never compromises on quality or taste. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite on your lunch break or indulging in a leisurely meal, you can count on prompt and courteous service. The staff is always ready with a smile and a friendly greeting, making you feel welcome from the moment you approach the cart.”
“Chew Chew Bun is a true gem! I tried the Mellon bun (per recommendation of the owner) and it made the rest of my day a treat. I was also shocked when I ordered this and a coffee for a price much lower than my usual coffee finds in State College.”
“I was there a day or two ago. For the first time. I have been missing out on so much. I loved this place. It had exceeded my expectations. I had an omelet and It was great. As was our server and the cleanliness of the establishment.”
“A nice brunch menu with items about $13, although the quality of the food isn't as good as about 1 year ago. The new style of home fries are a great improvement though! Servers are very friendly, but very busy. Great bar menu. $4 mimosas on Sundays are nice!”
“We were visiting here and I wanted to try something new and this place was perfect. If you love pastries like I do be sure to check this place. The owners are very kind and welcoming.I had the ff:Potato and Mushroom Borek Bites - I’m not a big fan of mushrooms but this one is really good. You can see the mushrooms and taste it but it’s doesn’t have that super mushroomy flavor that I don’t like. It was actually good!Baked Chicken Turnover - This was my fav! I love turnovers and this one is just perfect for me. The chicken was flavorful and they served it perfectly warm (not too hot inside).Baklava - There wasn’t a lot of filling, it was more of dough. I would give this 3.5/5 since I had a really good one somewhere else last night to compare with ?. This is a bigger size though.Coffee- perfect!I would love to try all the food if I could ?Lastly it was a bit chilly inside. I didn’t bring my coat inside thinking it will be warmer. I first sat on the bar stools but got so cold so I moved. It was more of when people open the door but I wish there’s more heat inside.Overall, highly recommended and will surely be back when we visit here again.”
