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!

We just moved to State College for work and so far it's been great. We went to Otto's for dinner…read morelast night and it was underwhelming. The waitress was very nice, Tayler or Tyler I think, the atmosphere was a bit fancy for a brewery but fine. The problem we had was the food. My wife ordered fish and chips and I had the Ruban, mine was fine except it was like the vanilla of Ruban's. My wife, however, asked for tartar sauce and got cocktail sauce. The waitress had no idea what tartar sauce was, no problem, but we expected the cook staff would but nope, tartar sauce was up there with unoptainium, didn't exist. The other issues are small, the waitress was thrown off by the tartar sauce issue I think and we rarely saw her. She forgot my beer order twice, never tried to do anything to keep us there, upselling like more drinks or desert. Granted, she was very young so it's understandable. Lastly, the beer was fine but the options were kind of weak. I had a pilsner that was very average, it's not a complaint so much as I kind of expect more from an onsite brewery. It's all personal taste so I get it. We will probably try it again but it will be a little while.
