Nightlife

State College offers a wonderful selection of nightlife opportunities that range from the relaxed atmosphere for those looking to kick back all the way to the live music options open until 2 AM. Many of these options are just steps away from campus and a variety of downtown lodging options. 

There are classic options that bridge multiple Penn State generations like the Phyrst or Deli's Z-Bar or completely new options such as Liberty Craft House or Local Whiskey. If you're wanting to combine a good dinner with a cocktail or two we suggest options such as Duffy's Tavern in Boalsburg, Gigi's Southern Table, The Field Burger & Tap or Otto's Pub & Brewery. 

For those looking for a challenge and to experience the local flavor check out the Central PA Tasting Trail.
