Restaurants near University Park

“Lots of choices. Best ice cream. SO GOOD.”

“The best place in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Pollock Commons has a spectacular Stepmania machine, pool + ping pong + arcade games+ a piano, better food than the other dining halls, and the coziest hangout space anywhere on campus.”

“McAlister’s Deli is ideal for a quick lunch pickup that actually keeps you full. Even during peak hours, orders tend to move efficiently, and the portions are generous. The combination of stacked sandwiches, warm sides, and refreshing drinks makes it a reliable go-to when you don’t have time to sit down. Many people highlight both the quality of the food and friendly service, even during busy times”

“Best authentic chinese tea ceramony on the eastcoast”

“I had their chicken noodle soup take away. The taste and packaging was great but the quantity was not worth the price. Ambience and location is pretty good. Service was quite fast.”

“Have been to dozens of different Burger King locations and this is certainly one of the better. Fast and courteous service with the food served quickly and at the proper temperature. One of the newer self serve soda machines with any choice of product possible. Very clean interior and clean restrooms. Convenient parking. Will certainly return when in the area.”

“I come here 5 days a week, using the my panera app I feel the variety and quality of food here aswell as the comfort of the location makes it well worth while! I average around 10.50 a meal order an entre and drink with sipclub.

This panera does frequently have problems with fast orders, they typically take 20-30 minutes but I have had some days that make it take even longer.

For me though, that is not an issue at all! They offer 2$ credit whenever this happens, since I come here for 2 hours at a time, I always enjoy my food and it’s permanently discounted. Just be cautious ordering if you don’t have much time, or order 10 or so minutes before you plan on coming.

Someone wrote kind messages on the bags one time and that was really nice :D”

“The portion I get in meat is always different but I understand it depends on rather they’re busy or not. The service was super fast and the people there a super kind. Diamond in specific helped me when I had multiple people ordering in the car and we were definitely not easy but she was very kind.”

“Ridiculously delicious tacos, friendly service, could not ask for more!”

“The food here is delicious, the staff is incredibly kind, and the atmosphere makes you feel right at home. Highly recommend! 🌟”

“Food is 10/10. Absolutely loved it! Toddler friendly restaurant too (:”

“Great service! Great steak! Will definitely be back!”

“great place to stop in and catch a good Detroit Pizza you won't be dissatisfied”

“We enjoyed an incredible meal while listening to David Fox give an amazing concert. The service was impeccable and very friendly. The decor is beautiful and unique. The farm-to-table menu is enticing and the food was delicious. This is a spot not to be missed! We will be back!”

“My husband and I went here for a late lunch today. He said it is now his favorite restaurant. The food was excellent, I can’t even choose just one thing, because it was all really good. Hubby was talked into a piece of Carrot Cake to go. He loved it. We will definitely return!”

“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!”

“The Restaurant was Quaint, Quick with their service, friendly and professional. The food was amazing and I had a wonderful time.

Thanks to Chloe K. for the Excellent Experience 👌”

“The chicken is fantastic. But I would really appreciate if there is option for taking the chicken with french fries only or there are other rice options (fried rice or regular rice) apart from the sticky rice.”

“Fantastic food and service! I've never had anything that I disliked. Hot honey pizza is amazing!! My husband's favorite is the buffalo chicken salad, while my kids love the raviolis and wing dings.”

“Service: My party of 16 came for lunch at noon on a weekday and they sat us immediately, took orders ~15 minutes later, and 20 minutes after that we all had our food! Very impressive!

Smash burger: Very rasonably priced, but not as crunchy as you'd expect. With the smaller amount of meat, and it not absolutely dripping, it was delicious and exactly what I was craving.

Shredded Brussels sprouts: I would highly recommend them if you're already getting the mixed greens, they add a great crunch.

Pretzel bun: The pretzel flavor doesn't come through as strong as I hoped, but it is appropriately soft for a burger bun, so I figure the texture is the sacrifice there (it's very tasty though!). I'll definitely get it again the next time I go.

Fries: Excellent! I didn't get any upgrades on them, but they were so delicious on their own that I'll do the same next time I go!”

“Becky organized our reunion dinner for 30 people perfectly. Everything about the Allen Street Grill is well detailed, from the welcoming ambience, to the impeccable and friendly service, to the well curated wine and cocktail collection, and the creative and talented kitchen. This is THE place to dine in State College.”

“Good fast service and great food”

“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! 😉”

“Went here for the first time on a trip to state college. Don the owner greeted us and an employee as soon as we walked in. Best customer service I’ve ever had, food is to die for. You need to go to this place if ur in state college area for a great experience”

“I loved all the cakes they have been done for my parties!”

“A Pakistani guy was selling authentic halal food - really tasty and reasonably priced. Lots of options (chicken or lamb), with rice and fries. I was in State College for a day, tried it for dinner, and I’d definitely recommend it.”

“Great Owners, Excellent baristas, Fabulous Bakers, Wonderful organic roasted on site coffees, My Happy Place! 💜”

“We came for dinner with a group of 16 while in town for a swim meet. Some restaurants struggle with large groups but not this place! Our waitress was absolutely fantastic at making sure everyone had what they needed. The atmosphere was perfect for a group. The main takeaway from the entire group was that the FOOD WAS INCREDIBLE! Two of the chefs, Alec and Quinn, came out to the table to make sure everything was ok and even answered questions about some of the dishes. The adults were loving the crafted cocktails and the kids loved the desserts! If you’re looking for a farm to table style restaurant that provides great service and pays attention to all the details-this is it!”

“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!!!”
