Irvings Bagels - State College

Admittedly it has been 20+ years since I frequented Irving's as a grad student. But, something is not the same. Don't love the current location, no atmosphere of friendliness like I remember. The staff are great, and the bagels and coffee are just as good. Hopefully my son will like it when he starts in the fall.

I try to visit Irving's on each visit to State College, as the bagels are among the best I've ever had, and I often order some extra to take home as well. The Turkey bagel is my favorite sandwich real turkey, not lunch meat! Highly recommend!

Love the bagels! It's also such a nice place to have breakfast with friends or study.

Anytime I eat here I have a breakfast sandwich and they are reliably tasty. However, I always order online, and often times I find my order is being completed well before my pickup time, like 10-15 minutes before, and as result my food is not warm by the time I pick it up.I would understand this occurring during the busy morning hours, but this has happened numerous times at both slow and busy hours.I personally dislike eating cold food meant to be warm, and this has deterred me from ordering or only doing so when I can arrive 10-15 minutes early of my pickup time.I recommend this place for its food, but if you plan to order online and don’t like eating cold food like me, I would take this into account .

This place was busy Sunday morning but hey what do expect from a bagel place next to a college campus with starving students on a busy State Patrick's Day weekend ?. We really enjoyed our food and drinks!
