    Everytime I come here it is great.  Tonight I had something spicy on my food and couldn't eat it. Delaney figured it out and got me a new one. The service is great and very quick. Thank you. Keep up the good work!

    So, this place is as Meh as Meh gets. Poor service. Greasy food, expensive.

    So I'm in State College Pa on business. Need wings. All contacts suggest Champs. Sit down, wait 15 for 1st drink at the bar. Order wings. Wait 30 for the wings. Can't get a drink In That 30.

    Top portion of the wings are great, bottom 4 are soaked in fry grease and inedible. Chalk it up to BOH noobs prob. Get another drink. Takes 10 mins.

    There doesn't seem to be a method to the bar. Random servers come and go pouring their own drinks whilst (what appears to be management) flirts and chats with the bar staff. This is a lawless place in dire need of leadership and solid values.

    Order a pizza to go. Asked for Parmesan and got Romano. Of course. Par for this course.

    Avoid if you have a low tolerance for BS.

    We've been wanting to try this and had time before the baseball game over the weekend. We ordered our food, a few minutes later the w as iter informs us they don't serve "pasta dishes" until 4:30. I ordered a burger and ge leaves. Over 20 minutes later it arrives. By this time it was after 4:30, so I have no clue why I couldn't have pasta. The burger was ok, the fries were awful. My daughter couldn't chew her chicken sandwich. We won't go back to this place again.

    We went to Champs North Atherton to help improve on what was an awful day for my husband and I. The service, atmosphere, and food were all fantastic. In particular the personality of the man and woman behind the main bar. They really provided great attention, but also enjoyable conversation that we really needed. The Colorado Rockie was a great meal that actually filled us both up! Will definitely go back to order another as it was that good and so was the staff!

    We came for drinks with our daughter on a Saturday night. We came in around 10pm. We were lucky and got a booth on the ground level. They had a DJ and the big college crowd.
    The lower level has arcade games. We didn't play this time.
    We will be going back.
