This is one of those interesting hole in the wall type local places. It's very easy to miss as their signage isn't the greatest. There is a parking lot. From their Facebook page about the location: "At the "Y" in Zion, Bellefonte, Pennsylvania 16823." It is a bit of a drive from State College, PA, but it appears this is the closest traditional butcher to State College.
Their prices are about the same (some cuts were a few cents to a $1 cheaper) as a grocery store and it appears they have bulk specials. The lighting nor the signage inside was very good, which made the first time going here a bit confusing/overwhelming. They have fresh sliced and freshly grounded meats (pork and beef). They do have some chicken products, deli meats and frozen fish. It looked like there is a case for fresh fish, but there wasn't any fish in the case when I was there (which was weird since it was the week before Christmas).
The staff was very friendly and almost too fast. I haven't tried the ground beef and pork I purchased just yet. But if it's good, I may consider going out there every now and then. read more
