This place is trying hard to serve innovative food and they should get credit for that. I really wasn't feeling my California veggie burger- great concept that just didn't quite hit the mark. It was tempeh(?) based, with corn and carrots- homemade, and served with feta and a lemon mayo. Creative and a nice try, but something was off about the burger. The texture wasn't great (but that's hard to nail on a veggie burger), but it was more the seasoning that was off. It was heavily dominated by an herb I couldn't quite identify- savory maybe. The steamed veggies I requested were good. Hubby's Reuben, the house specialty, left him less than thrilled. The meat, he said, was very fatty, with a slimy texture. Â Admittedly, he's from the New York area, but he has found other Reubens in this area that he does like, so he's not just being a Reuben snob.
The atmosphere of the space is really nice, chill and homey. Service was friendly and prompt. Hubby is over it after one visit because our meals really did disappoint. I might still give this place another shot, just because: 1. They are trying to do something beyond run-of-the-mill, 2. The atmosphere is so comfy, I did really like being there. 90's alternative goes a long way with me.
Last night (Friday), we had 2 hungry kids and wanted to go out for dinner. Pretty much everything in State College was mobbed, so we drove to Bellefonte. We were seated immediately, and our server was super attentive and helpful. Our orders were served in a very timely fashion (and she did rush the kids' meals for us--she knew they were hungry!) I had the shepherd's pie, which was delicious. A tiny bit greasy, but worth ignoring because the taste was excellent. Tiny pearl onions, peas and carrots, beef, topped with mashed potatoes and a sprinkle of cheddar. Very tasty. My husband had a stacker sandwich on marble rye that had fries in it, and alongside. He loved it. I stole a few fries--very good! My girls loved their chicken strips and applesauce (but really--that one's a no brainer. I'm just happy that part came quickly!) We both had good beers, and a very good experience. Bonus: changing tables in both restrooms, and they were clean and nice. Is this the most amazing culinary experience I've ever had? No, but it sure hit the spot, and the service was wonderful. We will definitely return!
Review Source:We came here on a late Saturday afternoon following a recommendation from personnel at the Bellefonte vistor's office. Â We ordered sandwiches which were not only delicious, but extremely filling as well. Â We also recommend the hearty ham/bean soup and the onion soup. Â More importantly, the customer service received here was excellent and on point. Â Nice restrooms too! Â Highly recommended to all.
Review Source:We ended up here for Valentine's Day. We were early so were given the lunch menu, which had precious little for vegetarians. How many portabella mushroom sandwiches can you eat? It was ok, nothing to write home about. I'd give the fries an A, the mushroom sandwich a C, and the spinach artichoke dip a B for good effort. The yuengling lager was extra tasty!
