Gave it a try and we walked in like a scene from a movie, the handful of locals at the bar gave us a once over. Found our way to a table, fella came from behind the bar and took it appetizer and drinks order. Cheese fries of sorts were very yummy. The Arena is connected to a bowling alley and does have a stage of sorts, looks like either live music or karaoke might take place. TVs are available to watch sporting events but the TVs might be 10+ year old, not the highest resolution by any means. Looking for a beer and opportunity to do some people watching be sure to visit the Arena.

Our table got cheesy garlic bread, a hot honey pepperoni pizza, and a sweet bourbon BBQ and bacon pulled chicken sandwich and fries and all the food was to die for. Everything was so fresh. Possibly my new favorite restaurant in town. We spoke with the manager that says they do karaoke nights, poker nights, paint nights, murder mystery dinners, etc there all the time. Not to mention the darts, pool tables, and bowling. If you have never been here or haven't been here lately, I highly recommend it.

The Brewery seemed tired (kind way of saying it is rundown). I don't see the draw of going to the Brewery with so many other options nearby. I think there are better dive bar options in State College.

They remain the best egg rolls in memory...although admittedly, I was probably nearly blacked out when eating them. I do remember copious amounts of whatever they were deep-fried in. Sold out of a little window in the middle of the bar, probably unsanitary as hell but wtfc at that age and in that state. Egg rolls and a few mugs of draft beer at 1am...who could want for anything more? Bottom line, under the foregoing circumstances, The Brewery was perfect!

Everything was good, but the word on the street is, as soon as you can, ask for your check as the servers sometimes disappear at length after your food is served. That did happen to us.

Our server was outstanding and I cant believe she memorized drinks and orders for 12 people and delivered flawless service. We started the lunch with skillet fries that were superb. The drinks came afterwards with plenty of beer, Long Island Ice Teas in individual pitchers, and several cocktails. The main courses came right afterwards. Iv had the chicken tender platter. While the fries were superb, the chicken was something out of a frozen grocery box. Flat, almost molded. Otherwise it would have been a five.
