W.C. Clarke (William Christopher to his mother, Bill to
most, and Uncle Willie to a few select friends) has been
roasting, brewing and selling his own special coffees to
the State College, PA natives for over 10 years.
Now, finally, after much cajoling and well-meaning flattery, he has agreed to let the rest of the world in on a little known Central PA secret.
If you were lucky enough to live in State College (home
to Penn State and the Nittany Lions), you could experience
the joy of getting to work early (really early) and inhaling the wonderful aromas emanating from Bill's roaster, wafting through Calder Alley between 6 and 8 am. You can always tell when it's a roasting day. The heady aroma of Bill's latest organic find (organic Peruvian, Zambian, Yemen, to name a few) wanders down the alley and draws you in.
No need to ask for a cup. Pour your own, throw your change on the counter. Only have a 20? Make your own change. Bill's too busy watching his roasting timer and talking with the morning regulars.
So maybe you don't live in State College. But you can have a taste of it. And if you're ever in town, Bill would be honored if you'd stop by. Bill's got more than coffee...
The Cheese Shoppe has cheeses galore, not to mention fine chocolates, oils & vinegars, a proud selection of locally baked breads, and a lot of conversation and advice from its many patrons.
