Best State College Bar Experiences Bracket: Final Four

And then there were four.

As the sun starts to shine, Onward State’s best State College bar bracket is down to its final four. We’ve had some strong competitors fall on their route to glory, and we’ve had a sneaky Cinderella make it much further than expected.

To select your favorite bar experience left, vote here before 5 p.m. on Thursday.

At the top of the bracket, we’ve got two strong outdoor spaces: No. 1 seed Doggie’s beer garden and No. 2 seed Pickle’s Deck. With the weather ~ finally ~ getting warm in Happy Valley, it’s no surprise that these two have made it this far.

Below them, we’ve got a few fan favorites: No. 3 seed Cafe teas against No. 6 seed Antifragile cheesesteaks, better known as Uncle John’s Jawns. Between tough seeding and almost getting closed down, Uncle John’s Jawns has conquered plenty on its way to making it this far.
