    We were nearby in Westport for a work trip. A local recommended the Valley Inn for lunch, so we decided to give it a try. This is NOT a place to eat lunch. It's a bar. There is enough wood in the place to build an ark. Even the bathroom is covered in it. Don't get me wrong, it is beautiful hardwood, but I don't think there's a bare surface for your eyes to get a rest. The bar is the first thing you see as you walk in. There are also awkward bankettes and display cabinets in weird places and a stage at the end of the room. The bathroom door doesn't swing correctly, so you have to prop it open when you leave. It's not dirty, but it could use a good dusting. There was also some brewing apparatus in an ajoining room for a beer that I've never heard of before (Abbey Wright). Since I can't drink beer, that's not surprising. We walked in between 11:30 and noon. There were two guys sitting at the bar who looked like they were fixtures.There was no one behind the bar or anywhere in the huge room. There were no other people at all. No one else was there the whole time we were. The bar flies welcomed us and said that the waitress would be there soon. She did come out soon and we were seated at a wooden table on wooden chairs. Their menu is not friendly to someone like me (gluten-free and dairy-free). I ordered the grilled chicken salad. Oddly, the salad comes with french fries (I asked if that was normal in this part of Pennsylvania. The waitress said that it's just how it comes, lol). It was fine, but I was relegated to eating salad while my collegues had burgers. The burgers looked good. The waitress was great. She was a nice mix between friendly and attentive. I won't be back, but that's not her fault. The menu doesn't offer much that I can eat.

    It's simply an inviting atmosphere with very good food and reasonable prices. The wait staff cares about what they do and are good at it.

    Good wing sauce. Friendly service. So-so vegetarian options, but I'm amazed they have any at all given that it's South Williamsport.

There were so many wonderful flavors: rose sugar in the opening snack, smoked mussels and saffron foam in the soup, homemade ricotta in the carrot pasta, spruce sorbet palette cleanser,, an incredible steak, rhubarb ice cream. Wow! Super unique. Service was friendly and professional. The dining room is small and the ceiling is a bit low, so the noise level is pretty high when the room is full. We were across from a table of 6 and one gentleman did not know how to use an inside voice, so we had to lean in to talk over this loud talker. But that's not the restaurant's fault. I think the price is really a bargain for what you will experience. Bring a nice bottle of wine and enjoy! We're already looking for reservations later this summer! Fantastic!

A side stop between State College and Harrisburg. We went with friends and brought a few bottles of wine (byow-no cork fee). We were the last seating of the night at 7:45 PM. This is a fixed price, fixed menu, 5-course meal, with a surprise 6th appetizer, all with a "Fall" theme as we visited in September. This is a farm-to-table restaurant with many items coming from their garden. I wouldn't say the menu options were my favorite but the presentation was excellent. Everything was delicious, service was great and it was a beautiful evening with friends. We were there past 10 PM as the restaurant came to a close. I'm glad places like this exist outside of the typical urban setting - thank you!

My companion and I ended a late afternoon Williamsport visit/pub crawl at Riepstine's on a recent Friday. Fortunately for the other pubs, it was our last stop. Had it been our first stop I'm nearly certain we wouldn't have bothered going anywhere else. The pub was surprisingly quiet when we arrived at around 6 PM on a Friday but we instantly felt right at home. The bartender, Jessica, was super cool and friendly as well as being very beer knowledgeable. Knowledgeable, but not snooty or pretentious about. It was fantastic to have a beee conversation without feeling talked down to. I really don't like beer snobs and they seem to have multiplied like rabbits I enjoyed a flight of five selections and all were excellent. I'd had Riepstine's beers at local beer bars and enjoyed the opportunity to sample at the source. They brew a variety of styles to suit everyone from a middle-of-the-roader (me) to more sophisticated tastes. These folks clearly know what they're doing. Riepstine's is a bit outside "downtown" Williamsport and the exterior is unremarkable EXCEPT they have a nice outdoor area. The interior is simple, leaning toward a modern style, and really charming . My companion's first reaction was "Whoa! This is NICE" (and she has high standards). We didn't try the food but most definitely will be back to try what looked a tasty and accessible menu. I can't say enough about the service, as well as the incredibly friendly other folks at the bar. I can't wait to go back.

Despite being one of the few patrons in the restaurant, my order took quite some time to come out. Drinks were made instantly, but I finished two before my entree arrived. The bathroom was strangely the only sticky element of the establishment. *Ribeye: huge 18 ounce ribeye served with sweet potato fries and creamed corn. Although I asked for medium rare, the edges leaned closer to medium well. That said, the steak was thoroughly seasoned and tender throughout. The sweet potato fries were heavily seasoned with sea salt, though the potatoes themselves were sweet enough to balance it out. The creamed corn was the most pungent and watery component. I wished the sauce had been thickened more, as it pooled underneath the steak and softened the bottom crust. Overall, this dish was hefty and a steal for the price. *Frost Bite: one of the seasonal mixed drinks. The Malibu and pineapple juice gave this a pina colada style profile. The blue curacao added a striking snowy appearance, though the drink itself leaned quite sweet. *Jingle Juice: another seasonal option, though this one packed a stronger alcohol punch. The tequila was more prominent, while the peach schnapps helped soften the edge. However, the cranberry and orange juices were barely noticeable, so it did not quite deliver the spiked fruit punch profile I was expecting. I loved the generous portions and strong flavors. While the execution was not perfect, the large sizes and heavy pours still made this a jolly experience.
