Hands down one of the chillest spots in town. Low key, great coffee, relaxed atmosphere, the works.If I went to school here, this would be a nightly hang for sure.
Cool vibe, lots of records. Check this place out if you like music, playing pinball or want a cool place to hang.
Love this place! I lived in the area for about seven years, and I’d frequent this place often. The decor and ambience are so relaxed. The variety of hookah flavors is incredible, and they also offer drinks and snacks. I always enjoy looking through all the vinyls as well.
Amazing place. Minus one star for not being a real town
Great selection of vinyl, pinball machines. I love the music they play there. Drinks could be better but that’s my personal taste.
My friends and I love coming here so much! Good food/drinks, staff is nice and attentive, and theyre reasonably priced in my opinion. Highly recommend coming here if youre into just hanging out and having a good time while smoking hookah. 😁💙
Very good hookah
I found this place to be awesome. as a previous smoker, it wasnt overwhelming.staff was pleasantall the pinball machines were in good workingthey offer other services I wasnt familiar with check the website read the reviewsplenty of vinyl albums for sale
This place is great
The place is amazing I will always recommend it to people!
Great selection of records, great pleasant staff highly recommended
Such a chill coffee shop and record store. Great vibes.
Im not a hookah smoker but I go here all the time for their coffee while get some work done. Im not one to rave about the atmosphere of a place but the second you walk in this place you feel like youre in That 70s Show and its a really great feeling. Great place to hang out and great drinks. The only thing is I wish they had more food on their menu.
Best place to smoke a hookah.
My friend and I visit Chronic Town about once a week. Service is always top notch, be it with help with records, hookah selection, or coffee drinks. We always feel welcomed. Shout out to Grace, who made our excellence drinks today.
For all the Hookah Lounges Ive been in, this one is actually one of the better quality. Not to mention, cleaner than usual. Ive gotten a few of the drinks they offer. If youre looking for a place that offers a good place to study while listening to decent music, with a very relaxed atmosphere-- where you can also order a hookah, this is definitely it. A good place to come to unwind after a long day.Im Commander Shepard and this is my favorite store on the Citadel.
Really great hookah lounge with a great pinball selection, new and used records and local coffee! They sell record players and do repair for vinyl heads. They also have a selection of glass pipes to those interested as well.I love the atmosphere and the coffee. They also have great musical acts frequently and there is always good music playing.
Probably one of the greatest places to chill out and clear the mind. Not a hookah fan? Well chronic town has a great selection of herbal tea and fresh coffee. Would love to figure out what playlist or radio station they use for music!
Its a fun little place, pinball and records everywhere, not a bad date spot. They also sell food they have waffles and cereal bowls too. Their drinks are well priced and the atmosphere is very clean and comfy.
Crowded yet lively area!
Great place to grab a cup of coffee and do some work during the day. Great spot to chill will friends at night. Fair prices and a friendly and knowledgeable staff.
Great condition pinball machines! I cannot say anything about hookah, never tried it
Love Chronic town, I wish we had one in Altoona. The people are so chill and the atmosphere is so relaxing. Great music, good drinks, and of course the hookah is delicious as well.
Love it had everything I was looking for I needed a donut flavor vape juice I couldnt find anywhere but I found it there and the employee was so helpful and very nice!
Crazy place you gotta love. Last time i was here it was just a small hookah lounge. it has since grown.. Now they have vinyl, and video games. Recently stopped in with an old high school friend to get some quick drinks on the go, which resulted in our hour and a half chitchat with emily.
Great place to relax with friends. The Hookah pipe is smaller then generally and does not allow for a full smoke.Its open late hours, and has a good atmosephere.
Pretty chill place to hang out. You can sit with a hookah and a drink (non-alcoholic) and play video games or do work. Never seems to be crowded or loud, and they music they play is really nice. The pinball machines are great too.
One of my favorite spots in State College. Great polite and joyful staff, great ambient with a really nice choice of coffee drinks. There are hundreds of hookah tastes to choose from. You can also buy records there and they have some really classic pinball machines.
Great atmosphere. Decent prices. Doesnt always change your coals, but great array of items and awesome chocolate chip cookies
My personal favorite chill spot downtown. Doesnt sell alcohol and is kind of small. But the hookahs and environment is worth every cent. Which you wont be losing much of, everything is very nicely priced.
I buy a premium rolling tobacco from Chronic Town. The price is good and they always have it stocked. As for a hookah bar, I think its quite uncomfortable. The wooden seats are uncomfortable and lighting that creates more privacy would be nice.
Chill atmosphere, chill music, and chill staff. Good variety of hookah flavors, teas, and snacks. Also a rotating set of pinball machines if thats your jam.
Lovely vinyl selection. 6/5 rating.
Got some amazing Kava tea here today which completely got rid of my anxiety! Great atmosphere, with lots of cool retro music, and video games to enjoy!
This place is awesome!!! Great drinks and the atmosphere is wonderful. Definitely worth the time to check out, kick back and relax!
Its a good atmosphere and service is excellent. Just wish they had better hookahs.
The workers are great, and super polite. Great environment, and a sweet place to hang out with some close friends!
Great atmosphere to chill, meet up with friends, or do homework and get in the zone. Also has old pinball to play, glasswares and vinyl records for sales, and the occasional great music events.
The ambience was great. Cool for weekends. There is also a bong store inside.
Basically the best spot in State College. Great coffee, hookah, vape supplies & glass, awesome people, the works. A great selection of records as well, and interesting selections of teas.Basically just do yourself a favor and check if out.
Fantastic and relaxed environment. Clean equipment and friendly staff!
Very chill environment with very friendly staff. Love this place!
Very calm place to hang out, and the shesha selection is great!
Fun and relaxed hookah lounge. The lights are always turned down. They make great drinks
Amazing little spot that Ive walked right by numerous times. The staff is extremely friendly and provide an excellent time.
Good chill time and great prices on vapor.
Drink are expensive, vape oil somewhat reasonable.
Great place to go if you want to smoke Hookah and check out vinyl records. Great atmosphere.
It is ceazzzzzy!!!! Love the smoke!!!! WATERMALEN!!!!
Loved it very relaxing n chill... Friendly service
10/10 Would go again. Good music. Cool peeps. Nice place to kick back with friends.
They have friendly staff that gladly does a little extra for you. The last time I went there for records the guy looked through them all toake sure they werent scratched before I purchased
Chill atmosphere and great selection.
Well priced drinks and a cool environment!
The staff are very friendly but only 1 employee knows anything about any vape help you may need other than to buy more e-juice. That will not stop some of them from giving out bad info about mod settings or coil info of any kind do your research before going or just go to Illadelph smoke shop, wider selection on all vape items and knowledgeable staff. But Chronic Town does have a wide juice selection and sale process on flavors they no longer order.
Super chillax atmosphere. I dont smoke at all but the blends here were exceptionally smooth and tasted amazing.
Very relaxing environment to get some good coffee and hookah.
Sells some vinyl, plays good music in a judgement free, clean, chill environment. For anyone who is local, its the Waffle Shop of hookah lounges in State College. They just do it right.
Great music, great hookah and pinball! The service is always great, a nice place to hang out near campus
Really nice atmosphere. Good drinks and shisha.
Of State Colleges four hookah lounges, Chronic Town is my favorite. From the environment, to the uniqueness, to the pricing, Chronic Town has a special draw.Firstly, if youre looking to get drunk and smoke hookah, Chronic town is not the place for you. Chrome is the only location in State College that sells hookah and alcohol.Chronic Town is a quaint underground store with a well-ventilated, relaxing environment, and affordable prices (their pricing is available on their website). They offer free water, and a variety of drinks. They do not sell food, but youre allowed to bring your own food, so thats a plus. Chronic Town also couples as a head shop, but the selection is rather small and expensive. If youre looking to come home with some glass, I would recommend Jamaican Junction instead. Chronic Town also has a medium-sized variety of vinyl records, and has several pinball machines.If youre not interested in renting out a hookah, you can just buy shisha instead.Youre allowed to vape and smoke cigarettes at Chronic Town, and you dont pay per person- you just pay for the hookah itself. The environment is relaxed- the staff wont kick you out for sitting around, even if you havent bought anything.Unfortunately, the seating isnt very comfortable- as all the benches and seats are wooden, but they have a large pile of pillows available to (somewhat) make up for it. In comparison, Redflame has more comfortable seating, but that doesnt outweigh the environment of Chronic Town.In conclusion: if youre looking for a hookah lounge that sells alcohol: go to Chrome. If youre picky about being extremely comfortable, or want loud and clear music: go to Red Flame. If youre looking for a cool, laid-back environment, check this place out- you wont be disappointed.
Its always been a fun and friendly atmosphere when Im there, plus fair prices and good items to order!
Service was great, atmosphere was fantastic and it was a great time!
Great music in a really cool atmosphere . The hookah prices also cant be beat
Always a friendly and fun stuff with excellent service!
Cool place to chill, and great coffee
PROS:1. You can sit all day and not buy anything if you like, as long as you dont cause a problem or a disturbance the staff or management will not pressure you and leave you be.2. You can bring your own food (not drinks)3. You can smoke cigarettes inside, if thats what youre into4. Manager (owner?) Jeff is a very nice guy5. Well ventilated6. Has different seasonal drinks and selection of breakfast cereal which is coolCONS:1. Hookahs are cheap quality2. Staff is very inattentive and you will have to ask them for new coals even when they are sitting doing nothing, at Red Flame hookah lounge the staff is constantly circulating the rooms refreshing the Hookahs3. Staff is very snooty4. Staff plays very bad quality indie music(My ears bleed because I prefer music that is less than 90% effects and synth)5. The bathrooms, somehow, always smell like poop. Which I really cant blame on the establishment as much as the customers. But seriously do yall seriously just hold up your bowels all day so you take huge monster craps in the bathrooms hereEvery time I come, when Red Flame is closed, I always just regret it. But we can add that to the PROS: good hours. Just cheap hookas, cheap staff, annoying hipsters spawning out of the woodwork like a fungus, and just all over im sooooooooooo tumblr alternative feeling. Now if youre into it then this could be your second home, and for some people, the regulars, they probably spend more time here than their actual house, but not for me. Red Flame is authentic Egyptian made hookas and a way better atmosphere. Thats why all the Middle Eastern students go to Red Flame; its the real authentic hookah lounge feeling. Not the my daddys a lawyer, im from the suburbs, look at my shiny new doc martins, im just soooooo cool and interesting arent I? Vibes. That is all, thank you,
