Lovely atmosphere to sit and study in or to listen to some live music on Sundays. Nice place for events and community based things but, at least for me, not so good on the food.
I’m vegetarian and I do appreciate their fully vegan menu but often I think their food is very dry and not so tasty, especially the baked goods which are 100% gluten free and often not so good. I would like for them to have both gluten free options and normal ones, because the atmosphere is lovely and the staff as well is very kind and welcoming. The drinks are good though, I like their tea selection!

Can I please move in? This place is enchanting! There are books, coffee, food, clothes and some antiques, what else can I ask for? Loved the tables in little nooks where one can study, read or hide from the world:))). We accidentally got here, right after we have already had lunch, so we didn’t get a chance to try the goods, but this is the first place on our list for our next visit to State College

Jazz Brunch Webster’s Bookstore & Cafe was delightful this past Sunday. There was a nice assortment of brunch foods, the stars for me being the roasted potatoes, probably the best I’ve had while dining out and the fresh fruit. The pancake texture was a little off for me, but Hubby said a little extra syrup did the trick for him. Kudos to Webster’s for serving organic maple syrup, I hate when the only option at a restaurant is “pancake syrup” whatever all that concoction is…. The background live music was lovely and just the right volume so table conversation could still be enjoyed. Cool place to browse, too!

I was looking for a unique spot to get some work done during my visit to State College & this fit the bill wonderfully! Great vibes amongst books & vintage shop, but slow service in the cafe due to being ran by students. They were out of both things I ordered & didn’t let me know, but when my snacks never came, the manager acted quickly to find a solution. – also great prices; there are many options $7 and under

My daughter and I discovered this bookstore hidden in State College today. We are always trying to find places that remind us of the PNW vibe where we grew up, and this is definitely it!! Vegan & GF food, good music, coffee, old books and even a cute little vintage store. We highly recommend checking this place out. The staff there are super friendly too!

Super cool used bookstore with a vegan cafe and sometimes live music. Good selection of used books including some old ones (original editions?). Friendly staff. Was not too crowded. There is also some kind of consignment shop as well.

Great little place, so many books and records and delicious coffee and snacks. And live music and local meetups and groups, a real community center! A true local gem.

Reminds me of places in Greenwich Village in the 60s. The bowls we had were the size of a side salad in most restaurants with prices of a large vegan bowl in Greenwich Village of today. I had a chia latte which tasted watered down.

Good place to shop for books that are actually worth reading rather than the ones on the campus bookstore or the ritzier spots. Never had food here or tea but always was impressed with the selection of hard-to-find books. A good spot.

Great place to chill and hang out. With some book-reading ambience music from local bands to a good variety of books to buy off-the-shelf, it’s one of the nicest nooks in downtown state college.
