Even though this may be the only chain of liquor/wine stores in the area, it's a great shop with…read morelots of variety. This particular location isn't the biggest but it seems to have the best variety and availability of unique products. They carry great bourbons, mixers, liqueurs, and wines. We found some new liqueurs to try and that's always fun- it gets boring seeing the same old same old every time. They have a great selection and area dedicated to PA-made products so it's neat to see what's made nearby. The employees have been nice for the most part but tend towards not being super outgoing at this location. The prices are average for most things but they do have special weekly deals that can be quite a steal! You can check online or in store for the discounts they have that week. They take carding very seriously- I had my ID scanned and I had to sign a receipt confirming I was 21+. The cashier had to sign it too. Maybe just something they're doing with the start of school but it can be a little bit of a hassle if you're in a rush. Overall a great store for all your liquor and wine needs (no beer!).

This review is for take-out as I was TAPPED out after freshman orientation and the heat. Let's…read morestart with why it is 5 stars when I'm going to make some critical comments....the reason? The burger was that good. Because I want to end on a positive, let me start with negatives: the fries were okay. Normally these are a side dish not worth mentioning but this restaurant makes them a star with a fry menu. ( I humbling suggest they try frying in beef tallow to make it a whole other fry experience). The other critical comment is my French onion soup (on take out) was really cold and we weren't late nor (but for the fries) anything else cold. To give you reference, I microwaved for 1 minute and was still cold and did another 1:30. But it was delicious. Now, why 5 stars? The burgers. My son and I both got the Lancaster burger with horseradish mayo on the side and substituting wagyu. It was heaven. It was perfection. We still think and talk about that burger and any food that makes you miss is worth 5 stars!

One of our favorite stops in State College to meet up with family. Service is quick, the staff and waitress were helpful on suggestions and keep it real with you regarding what they like/don't like. The setting with the fireplace and views of the golf course and lake are beautiful. Love this spot. If you are heading to State College, give it a go!
