    “Their food is delicious and there's no question about it. We ordered a Mutton Biryani and Lamb Kabob Bowl. However, there was so much rice in both and less meat, so we found the meat was not sufficient to eat the rice. If Cafe Alina wants improve its services, think about our comments and take some remedial measures. Thanks!”

    “This is my favorite late-night food spot in State College. They are usually open until midnight, and at that time, most of your other options are basically just McDonald’s or pizza. Their matcha is really good, and I also think they have the best pho around State College. For the fried chicken, I highly recommend the garlic flavor—the sauce is really good. If you get hungry at night and you like milk tea, pho, and fried chicken, you definitely need to come here. They also have a lot of board games, so it’s a great place to hang out and play with friends.”

    “Abba Java has a laid‑back, community‑oriented vibe that’s ideal for weekday coffee breaks, weekend morning hangouts, or study sessions. Late mornings and early afternoons are especially nice when the café is active but not too crowded. The menu of espresso drinks, teas, fresh baked goods, and breakfast bites makes every visit satisfying.”

    “If you're looking for a place to hold a bridal shower or similar event, I'd highly recommend RE Farm! I had my bridal shower there and everything from start to finish was fantastic. The team was easy to work with, the food was fantastic, and my bridesmaids had very little to do because of how much the restaurant staff took care of. I also thought everything was very affordable, especially considering how much you get. I worked with Duke and Greg, and they both were incredibly willing to work with me on event details to make it both in my price range and what I wanted the day to look like. The venue is also beautiful and we really didn't need to add very much of our own decor at all. I received a ton of compliments from my guests about how wonderful the shower was and how the food was delicious. Can't recommend highly enough!!!”

I had the Eggs Benedict Florentine - in addition to the usual stuff they use portobello mushrooms soaked in balsamic and grilled. Absolutely delicious. I asked for extra crispy bacon and it was PERFECT. I’m keeping this place on my list for next time I’m in the area.”

    “I grew up in the area; many years ago I used to frequent the Hookah lounge that previously was established in this space with my friends. Formally known as Chronic Town, I am here to say that Chill Out Hookah Lounge has improved upon quality and service tremendously. The atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable; the staff were friendly and helpful. They allowed me to smell the different Shisha Tobacco blends before deciding on which one I wanted to smoke. They gave me and my friend free water to sip on as well. Most importantly, the hookah experience was fantastic. The units they have are all very nicely taken care of and of high quality. We purchased ice for our hookah and we got a freeze hose along with it. The staff routinely replaced our coals, brought us a fresh cold hose every so often and we didn’t have to ask. It’s BYOB, there are games to play, multiple TVs to watch and they have a pretty extensive menu to order food from. I had a great experience, thank you for the great service! Parking: You can Bring your own Beer / alcohol Kid-friendliness: This is an establishment for adults only. Wheelchair accessibility: No.”

    • Cuban Sandwich

    “What a surprise to find a good place to eat at the tiny airport in State College, PA! Although it looks like merely a convenience store—with chips, soft drinks, magazines, etc. — in the back is a full kitchen, where they can make salads, sandwiches, schawarma platters, soups…and all of it looks delicious. I had a Southwestern salad, and I think it was the best, freshest salad I ever had in an airport, in over 50 years of flying. Add to that a PERFECTLY made espresso with fresh Colombian beans, and you have a winner. A great experience, highly recommended! AAAAA”

    “Delivery has really amped up during the pandemic from many restaurants. Panera (North Atherton - State College) is one of the only restaurants to consistently forget large (like entire meal with side) items on just about every order. Sure, we can get a refund through Grubhub, but by the time food arrives it is usually too late to reorder just one person's dinner so we have to constantly adapt to a missing meal that we initially paid a fairly high amount for. It is a busy town, but it only takes about 30 seconds to do a final item check before setting the bag out for delivery drivers to pick up. We have missed whole sandwiches, entire soups and their bread bowls, Mac and cheese kid's meals, $10+ 4-packs of cinnamon rolls, random assortments of missing sides and drinks, etc. We keep trying because we love Panera's food... but it is getting to the point where nothing takes away the sour taste left by poor quality/quantity checks.”
