Restaurants near Upper Pine Bottom State Park

We started our evening at the 1855 Lounge. It’s a beautiful venue with high level cocktails and scotch. Great way to start! Walked over to Lionne next door and had an amazing dinner. Enjoyed delicious lobster bisque, a traditional NLI flavor. Our entree was beautifully browned scallops, black rice with light raisins for a little sweet, tiny tomatoes and spicy micro greens. We were very impressed with both the great flavors and original presentation. The dessert we chose was a yummy chocolate cake with fresh fruit, sherbet and lemon cream. It was truly a great dinner at a new venue that didn’t disappoint at all!

Excellent food, service and atmosphere, as always. This is our favorite restaurant in State College.

We love Duffy’s Boalsburg Tavern! The historic building is incredibly charming, sure it could use a little rehab but it’s the corner piece of a beautiful historic village. The food is really strong, especially for Centre County, and the service is tremendous. There are quirks but an institution!

My carrot soup and farro risotto were both fantastic. My husband’s linguini was equally delicious. After moving to State College two years ago, and visiting every summer for over 20 years, this was our first visit to the Allen Street Grill. It won’t be our last!

Service was excellent and food never disappoints! Def get the rolls and deviled eggs!
