ALTOONA, Pa. (WTAJ) – In the midst of the hustle and bustle in the rural town of Martinsburg lies a hidden gem known for their food and freshly made pastries.
However, they’ve announced that they’ll be expanding into Altoona with a second location.
Mamie’s Cafe and Bakery said they’ll be bringing a small location to the area that is seasonal and takeout only.
“So I had the opportunity to rent a small space in Altoona to test the market to test the replication process of mammie’s if you could replicate a few of our top selling items,” Karen Wyland, owner of Mamie’s Cafe said. “I’m excited – it should be fun, I just want a fun project.”
Folks comes from all over to get a taste of their goodies and it’s not unusual to see a line out of the doors.
“Oh yeah there’s always a line. Takes you about two hours to get your breakfast but its worth it,” one customer said.
