Janejira's Guidebook for State College

Food Scene

I'm a culinary teacher at Janejira's Kitchen. I have traveled and lived in major US cities before moving to this small town. My standards are higher than the average. We have a limited selection in our little small-town. Hope you'll find something you can enjoy and if you ever wish to take an on-demand cooking. For an authentic experience, pickup my homegrown pesticide-free exotic ingredients during your stay! Send me a text.
If you're in a group of 4+, you have to try their fries. The ambient of this place is nice. It's a big open space with fireplace, but certain areas of the restaurant can be chilly; I always bring a sweater. Need reservations for weekend visits, or you might be waiting for an hour.

I LOVEEEEE this little place. This is not great for a large group because they only have 1 large table. If you are going there for lunch, you need to arrive before noon, otherwise once the place fills up, you will need to wait! They do not take reservation and will not seat you unless all your parties have arrived. I always order Spicy Raman Noodles.

If you're looking for a special place to dine, this is a good farm to table restaurant that just opened up (summer 2019). Their menu is small and they will accommodate any food allergies you might have. Tell them Janejira sent you!

Drinks & Nightlife

This place is cute and very well accessible if you are downtown. They have outdoors/indoors seatings. I normally can get seats here. I haven't had their cocktails, but draft wheat beer...yumm! The squid appetizer is nice!

Essentials

You'll get quality groceries done here. Wegmans actually has a small alcohol section and ready to eat food bar. Their pizzas are great and cheap which you can buy by the slice or whole. Enjoy!
