A new deli has found its way to State College, and it plans to be here for "All Seasons."

"My husband picked the name All Seasons Deli because it would be one of the first businesses a person sees when they open the phonebook," joked Cori Donaghy, co-owner and event manager of the new deli. She said the name of their deli also represents the changing menu to accommodate what customers want.

The quaint shop, which faces West College Avenue between Gill and Sparks streets, can seat a total of 15 people inside the restaurant and 20 to 30 people on the outside patio during nice weather, Donaghy said.

She and her husband Patrick Donaghy, co-owner and executive chef, have owned All Seasons Catering, which had a main office located on 1975 North Oak Lane for the past three years, and because of a need for larger kitchen space, the two moved their business downtown.

Jenny Selby (sophomore-elementary education) lives in an apartment above the deli and said she has already eaten there twice.

"It's really good food," Selby said. "And it's nice because there are not many places to eat on this side of town."

She added that instead of walking further downtown or driving to a Wal-Mart, she and her roommates opt to go downstairs to the deli because it is so convenient.

Cori Donaghy said their primary client was the university and they were the busiest during the "academic calendar."

"The [university's] business falls between August and May," Cori Donaghy said. She said they decided to open a deli to have consistent business during the lull in their catering business.

There will be a catering staff and a deli staff to accommodate both businesses, Cori Donaghy said. She said the deli's menu includes breakfast foods, homemade salads, sandwiches, wraps and organic coffee.

"It's nice because students can get a quick cup of coffee or lunch on their way to class," Cori Donaghy said.

The deli has been open since Monday and business has been "slow and steady" with a mix of eat-in and take-out food orders, but Cori Donaghy said she is positive business will grow.

"We had zero advertising ... we are depending on passerby's and word-of-mouth," Cori Donaghy said.

She said the majority of their eat-in business would have to be a "walking crowd" because there are only five available parking spots across the street.

West College Realty, 312 W. College Ave., owns the rest of the spots in the parking lot so more parking may become available if they are not given to renters, Cori Donaghy said.

Among other things that will soon be implemented, Cori Donaghy said they hope to start a delivery service because of its popularity with college students.

Patrick Donaghy said they looked at other available spaces, but he is happy they chose downtown.

"This is an ideal space," Patrick Donaghy said. "It's the center of student and residential housing."

Cori Donaghy said she really would like "All Seasons" to become a "neighborhood deli."

"We are looking to get to know our customers on a first-name basis," she said. "There are so many people that come and go ... we would really like to become a staple in the neighborhood."
