Webster's Bookstore Cafe

I used to go here all the time throughout all of college. The food was phenomenal. I don’t know what happened but the food quality just went downhill. The sandwich was meh but great once I removed the apples. The apples that I had on my sandwich looked grotesque. The potato salad wasn’t great, the potatoes weren’t cooked I believe or barely cooked. The service was not great the two people at the counter were saying to have the buffet so they didn’t have to make anything. It seemed like off putting vibes from the two workers.

Webster’s has that classic bookstore‑meets‑cafe feel- cozy, laid‑back, and comfortable. Early mornings are perfect if you want a quieter table and a fresh coffee, while brunch hours bring a friendly, social vibe. Breakfast favorites like bagel sandwiches, baked goods, and skillets make this a reliable place to start your day or enjoy a midday meal.

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

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!

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
