Juice Bars & Smoothies near University Park

“I’ve only been to this Jamba Juice twice so far. The smoothie bowls are refreshing, taste good, and are just enough to hold me over without being too filling before class. It’s a quick, easy grab on campus, and I can see myself coming by more when I need something simple and fresh.“

“As a Penn State student I had never had shake smart before. I decided to try it the other day and absolutely loved it! The service was great and the employees were extremely friendly. The staff offered me great recommendations and were dedicated to finding me a shake I would love. I love apple juice so they suggested I order a Fruitopia. It was fantastic and I will definitely be going back for more!!!“

“I am so thankful I am for Penn Valley Cafe. I fly in and out of here several times a month for my work commute and really love having Francisco and Penn Valley here. My commute doesn't always line up with the flights so I usually spend about an hour here before the ticket counters open. Love the Cafe con leche!! ☕️“

“this place is so wonderful!!! went with a bunch of friends and we had yummy food for a good price and gigantic smoothies :)

we all ordered from the counter, and absolute icon Charlotte got us our smoothies & food— she was super nice! while we were at our table she came over and offered us a mango milkshake that someone didn’t pick up FOR FREE. and it was SO GOOD. Charlotte girl you deserve a raise and all of the good luck in the world I hope you have a fantastic life

this is so awesome and I will absolutely be back“

“Food is very good and there is a large assortment of Asian food which is unique for a small town like this. HOWEVER, they sell fake labubus for $18. Make sure to check the packaging before you buy it, because they are fake. But if you don’t buy the labubus you will have a great time.“

“If you’re looking for an amazing pre- or post-workout treat — or just something delicious to satisfy your sweet tooth without feeling guilty — this place is it. The service is always wonderful, and the Cowabunga Smoothie is one of my personal favorites. Everything they serve is made with natural, organic ingredients, so you don’t have to worry about a bunch of ultra-processed stuff going into your body. It’s refreshing to find a spot that focuses on quality while still making drinks that taste this good. It’s always a great choice when you need a quick energy boost to keep your day going. Highly recommended.“

“Doggie's has the best pizza in State College but even better than the pizza is the service!
Everyone I've come in contact with has always been happy and helpful. I went in to pick up 20, yes 20 Pizzas that the owners graciously donated to the PSU Men's Rugby team and it was the Banana Crawl weekend. As on can assume SC and Doggie's were packed! But our pizzas were hot and perfect!
Doggie's pizza is the #1 for me in State College!“

“no need to wait for servers to bring you a beer. and you can pour yourself small beers“

“I went to 7 Brew expecting a typical drive-thru coffee spot. What I got instead was a full-blown beverage experience.This place is NOT just coffee. The menu includes shakes, frozen lemonades, regular iced lemonades, energy drinks, fizz sodas, smoothies, teas, and fully customizable coffee drinks. The variety genuinely caught me off guard in the best way.I ordered a Watermelon Lemonade and a Chocolate Shake.
The Watermelon Lemonade was refreshing, clean, and balanced. It wasn’t overly sugary or artificial tasting. It had that crisp, bright flavor that actually quenches your thirst instead of just coating your mouth in syrup.The Chocolate Shake was thick, smooth, and rich. Not watery. Not icy. Just a solid, well-made shake that felt like a proper dessert.One detail I really appreciated: they use different size straws depending on the drink. The shake came with a taller straw, and the lemonade had a standard one. It’s a small thing, but it shows attention to detail and makes the experience better.Customization is another huge plus. You can adjust sweetness, choose flavors, add drizzles, and mix combinations across different drink types. It feels more like a beverage lab than just a coffee stand.Service was quick, ordering was easy, and the overall setup is efficient. It’s perfect for people on the go, especially late-night runs.If you think 7 Brew is just coffee, you’re missing out. It’s a creative drink spot with way more variety than expected.Definitely coming back.“
