“Loved swinging by Vibe Coffee when we were in town for football. Friendly staff and excellent coffee! I definitely recommend the grilled stickies iced latte! Maybe I should be glad we don’t live closer…it would be addictive! 😉”

“The coffee here is always a joy, never been unsatisfied and always a pleasurable experience. Their fall flavors are delicious, the Pumpkin Latte and Apple Pie Chai are absolutely some of the best fall-themed drinks in Happy Valley. Definitely a staple of the Valley.”

“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”

“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.”

“Although there is a long line many days - the staff does a great job of staying on top of it and smiling through. And...when mobile app equipment was down and they had no way of telling people ordering...drinks were put first upon your arrival and free for the inconvenience. Keep up the good work - being across the street from 46K students and 20K employees makes this a very busy Starbucks!”

“The most incredible venue for a wedding. We recently had the pleasure of having our wedding (rehearsal, ceremony & reception) at the Graduate Hotel. The atmosphere, staff and venue were absolutely perfect. Both Jessica and Mark went above and beyond to ensure our wedding went off without a hitch. And the food was to die for! Every step of the wedding planning process, Jessica worked with us to make sure our wedding day so special and everything we hoped it to be. On the day of, Mark went above and beyond to carry out our vision and make it perfect. Their hospitality was more than anyone could have asked for and we will forever recommend this venue to all.”

“Dunkin’ is ideal when you need something fast, affordable, and consistent. The menu is built around coffee, donuts, and quick breakfast items, making it easy to grab exactly what you need without overthinking it. It’s one of the largest coffee chains globally, serving millions daily, which explains the focus on speed and convenience.”

“I always always order the loaded hashbrowns and this dunkin is the only one that fills the cup full with bacon! I’ve been to multiple locations and they barely put any bacon or cheese but this location does it perfectly! I drive out of my way to go there! They always know exactly what I want also!”

“My daughter and I are visiting from Vermont, our drinks were good. I Ordered the cinnamon roll and my daughter got the brew lagoon. I wasn't impressed with the young lady that took our order her shorts were extremely inappropriate for work attire.”

“Staff was exceptional! Served 20 people in the short 10 minutes we were there, and continued to be pleasant. The only downside is that Starbucks does not have a card tipping option at this location. Shame on Starbucks, these people deserved it.”

“For matcha lovers: order from another edge location bc more often than not it WILL be very clumpy and bitter here!! Otherwise, all other drinks are made well, especially the caramel brulee latte. They dont have a thing to warm pastries up either, so do with that information what you will”

“The restaurant was very clean and the drinks we ordered were made perfectly. Everything tasted great including the bakery goods. The bathrooms though were super dirty and needed a cleaning very badly. We also were the only ones that had placed orders inside and after using the restroom we were still waiting for our drinks because they were all only worried about making the drinks for the drive thru.”

“Anyone complaining about no parking.....are you kidding? That can be said regarding just about any coffee shop, restaurant, clothing store, bar, etc. on College Ave in State College.....so what??? It is a college town and the university is right across the street. This is an extremely clean and well run Starbucks. Tea and flat white both perfectly prepared! We'll be back often over the next few years.”

Days after Blank Street Coffee opened in Los Angeles, a line stretched "down the street" despite 103-degree heat, a local source told Daily Coffee News. The Brooklyn-born coffee and matcha chain opened its first West Coast cafe on Aug. 12 at 13273 Ventura Blvd. in Studio City, a Los Angeles neighborhood with deep roots in the entertainment business. It's the company's 106th location. "Studio City felt right for our California debut," co-founder and CEO Issam Freiha said in a statement.
Americans are drinking less alcohol, and fast-food chains have spotted a chance to fill the gap. They are courting young customers with frozen coffees and energy drinks that buyers can customize down to the flavor shot. Taco Bell has pushed harder than most, opening more than 30 Live Más Cafés inside its existing restaurants, where workers it calls "Bellristas" serve creamy chillers, fruity refreshers, and seasonal drinks alongside the usual menu. A diner can wash down a Triple Double Crunchwrap with a Pineapple Lime Rockstar Energy Refresca and its 200 milligrams of caffeine, roughly twice a regular coffee. Early results have already justified the expansion. After Taco Bell debuted Live Más Café outside San Diego in late 2024, that location saw a 40% sales lift, and the chain now plans a systemwide rollout as it chases $5 billion in beverage sales by 2030.
Dunkin' is heading back to Canada, eight years after it gave up on a market it couldn't crack. The coffee chain, owned by Atlanta-based Inspire Brands, said it has signed a deal with Foodtastic to open "hundreds" of locations across the country. Foodtastic, which owns Freshii and runs 27 brands and more than 1,200 locations in Canada, already operates Inspire's Jimmy John's sandwich shops there. Both sides pointed to that track record.
Bubble tea is about to get a lot faster. Gong Cha, the Taiwan-based chain with 2,200 stores in 33 countries, is introducing a major redesign that puts automation front and center. The company calls it "Gong Cha 2.0" - a new store model that combines drink-making robots, self-service kiosks, and a modern look. After testing the setup in Asia and the Middle East for two years, the brand is ready to bring it to its 240 U.S. locations.
Nothing Bundt Cakes, the Dallas-based bakery chain with nearly 800 locations across North America has claimed the No. 1 spot in America's Favorite Chains for the second year in a row. The chain didn't just win overall - it swept multiple categories. Nothing Bundt Cakes topped service and hospitality, unit appearance and ambiance, food and beverage, and convenience and takeout. It was also the No. 1 favorite limited-service chain among millennial consumers.
