"Serving Penn Staters since 1926, the Corner Room stands as a tribute to Dear Old State, and it’s an essential bucket-list destination for students, alumni, and visitors. Diners can expect a heaping serving of Penn State memorabilia, as well as both classic and reimagined American comfort food, like a 40-year-old chili recipe and a peppery skillet of Eggs in Purgatory. End your meal with a serving of warm grilled stickies — a cross between a sticky bun and a cinnamon roll that originated at the legendary but now-closed Ye Olde College Diner. Go the extra step and top your grilled stickies with a heaping scoop of vanilla ice cream." - Victoria Gough

Best smoked salmon sandwich I ate in State College. Breads were very loaded with lots of cream cheese, salmon, arugula, and pickled red onion. It was normally coming with chips but I upgraded it to with salad and salad was also very nice with tasty olive oil/balsamic dressing. My Mediterranean stomach had a real fest. Will come again soon. It was a very busy time with THON but my order still was not late.

By far the best eggs benedict I’ve ever had! Most places don’t do much with the standard English muffin, but here it was crispy and garlicky which enhanced the savoriness of the ham, egg yolk and amazing hollandaise sauce. It was a perfect and super satisfying breakfast.

The most iconic restaurant in State College. Food is always delicious and the staff is courteous and extremely professional. If you've never been, it's a must.

I’ve been to the corner room for brunch and dinner. The steak and frites were good, cooked perfectly and the fries well seasoned. The brioche french toast was also a good choice for brunch. They were busy for brunch so the service wasn’t that good but I would still come back.

The food is delicious, it’s classic American food, we went there at Memorial Day, it’s a Sunday and the parking is free.

9/21/24 - My son and I attended a Penn State game and a Steelers game this weekend. Our home is Birmingham, AL. We wanted to experience games at these two great stadiums and eat at establishments with a great tradition. We were very pleased with The Corner Room. Very pleasant staff from the hostess who recommended we eat at the bar since we were a party of two and the very friendly, attentive young man serving us at the bar. I had the double stack burger/fries and my son had the buffalo fried chicken sandwich/fries. The burger was very good and my son enjoyed his sandwich. Fun traditional place to eat with good food - highly recommend you eat at The Corner Room!

Our server Ethan was awesome! He was very friendly and attentive. The food came out super quick and hot as well. We had “Bobby D’s Famous Chili” and it was delicious! The atmosphere in the restaurant is perfect if you’re visiting for any occasion.
