We were in for our daughter's graduation. Woo hoo! She did it! The idea was to eat at a fine dining establishment but she suggested The Corner Room. It was a place she went to once in a while with her friends. We are so happy that we ate there. There was a line but we were seated within about... More

We had breakfast here. Nothing was terrible, but nothing was noteworthy. Not a place I would come back to

Good friendly service and they get you in quickly, even if there is a line. Not getting gourmet food here - we typically have breakfast or a quick sandwich.

We had lunch here around 2:00 on a Sunday. Had a short wait to be seated. Service wasn't bad, considering it was a full dining room. Our meals weren't bad, but not great. Two of us had the Fish and Chips, daughter had Tuna Melt. Would pick something different next time, considering the large menu they have. It's more about... More

We had heard good things about this spot and were looking forward to trying it on a recent visit to Penn State. We went on a Saturday a little before the dinner crowd and our party of six was seated quickly. The meal started out promising - drink orders were promptly taken and arrived quickly, and appetizers and some mighty... More

Food was good, service was good. Nice evening out. Menu is vast. I'm sure you could literally get anything you wanted. We always go with the burgers and the onion rings.

I have eaten here several times in the last few years. Most recently had lunch here with a friend on a Sunday afternoon. I ordered a Thai salad with tuna filet. The tuna was cooked nicely, medium, but bland. The salad was nothing but Romaine and a microscopic amount of shredded carrots. The dressing was a microscopic amount of sesame... More

Thought maybe we just ate there on an off day but my Wife goes there occasionally for lunch with colleagues and results are the same. Poor food, not as ordered, expensive and horrible service. They think because they have been there forever that they are the best. Well try again owners and managers of The Corner Room. Not even close!!... More

We have been coming to The Corner Room for 30 years. It is a State College tradition! I am so sad to write a poor review. We have had the breakfast buffet in past years, but our recent visit was a disappointment. We arrived shortly after the buffet items were made available, so we thought everything would be fresh and... More

Nice breakfast buffet - very friendly wait staff, some who have been there for decades. Good sandwiches but most importantly, great place to sit, have a bite and visit with family and friends while watching the students head to the library for study time after a nice football weekend.
