    Got an oatmilk latte with cinnamon and honey and it was really creamy and yummy. I enjoyed the conversations with baristas and the coffee was pretty tasty. Nice comfortable seating and vibe inside

    This was so close to my hotel that I had to try it. It was really the Lox toast pics on Yelp that brought me here! The front counter person was so nice and friendly. Every time I had questions he was so informative and friendly! I wanted to try the Darjeeling earl grey with steamed milk and a touch of honey (I know it's a "London fog"). It was fabulous! I also got the whole milk latte and the lox toast. It had veggie cream cheese, salmon, cucumbers and picked onions. Exactly what I needed after my long flight the night before and a workout. It was kinda crowded around 1:15pm ish and died down a lot around 1:30. There were a lot of people using their laptops on the benches inside and limited seating outside. I was able to snag a bench top inside looking into the parking lot. Great first mini meal in State College, PA!

    Nice little place that's clean and friendly. I wanted a coffee that was strong but had a little whisper of lavender and I got just that. The lox toast was substantial and filling, lots of good flavors together. Parking is easy and convenient. The only reason I take off a star is price point. It is far too high. Not enough competition around so they're getting away with it but 15 bucks for a coffee drink and lox toast is a bit outrageous. Overall recommended though and will return to try other things.

    5 stars for cold brew coffee, cold brew tea, customer service, and modern interior design. Their cold brew is very, very good. Whichever roast that is of their coffees is worth getting at your next visit. You can taste and smell every profile indicated in the description - even my coffee disliking friend took a sip and said "wait, is this what coffee's supposed to taste like?" Yes!! It is!! If it's made well - as they do as Rothrock!!! Just a small note though - I was rather disappointed in the latte. Compared to the cold brew the flavors and aromas just weren't as prominent and actually tasted incredibly weak. There should have been a shot in there but half the time I was drinking it wondering if it was just milk/foam with a kind of slight coffee smell? I'd also maybe forgo their food options unless you're really hungry. They are all beautifully presented but the the flavors aren't all that good. BUT LOVE THE 6 GRAIN BREAD that they use on all their toasts/sandwiches. It they just sold the bread I'd buy it. So - get the cold brew coffee, cold brew tea is good too, and I'd recommend that you get other coffees cold or hot without any additions like milk or syrup because just the coffee they make is good and extras would just muddle the beautiful complexities. And see if you can just get their toast. :)

    Clean, bright, friendly and super trendy littl coffe shop in a plaza in Atherton in state college... not something the students will walk to but a quick drive over by car. Interior is light and bright- staff was friendly. Prices seem on par for hip coffee shops, decent food choices and hopping at 8:45 on a Sunday morning. If you come much later may be hard to grab a seat as it looked like folks were hunkered down to work

    I was amazed I hadn't written a review about one of my favorite places in State College. Websters…read moreis awesome and I come here several times a month, much to my wife's chagrin. Webster's has a fantastic book selection, and I really don't think I've ever seen prices as cheap as theirs. The bookstore is huge, and there is always something I find to buy. They have an enormous selection of folio editions, a huge Civil War section, and manage to keep cheap paper backs to a minimum. They have occasional events and sales, such as buy 3 get one free, or when a donor drops off a huge stack of books they often put them out at sale prices. The owners are also so so nice and really love books. They will do whatever they can to help you find something you're interested in. I am in love with the space. Piles of books everywhere, sort of chaotic organization, winding bookcases and hidden seating areas - all they need is a cat! You can reserve tables for meetings, but you can also just grab an open one. I actually have never eaten AT the cafe, but I've had their catering quite often and it is really delicious food.

    Like many second hand bookstores, you get the occasional grandpa nodding off to his book, the older…read moreuncle who unbeknownst to himself starts singing along with the cafe music, and ladies meeting up for a chat. But also like many independent bookstores like this, you can the feel for the down to earth community where people just are. I came in for a morning coffee and to browse the books. I was impressed by the young barista's skill in making a latte to my preferences, and it was really nice to weave my way around the shelves to see what an algorithm recommendation would normally miss. Not sure about the food, but the book space and coffee are on point.
