The
Charlottesville Dutch Pantry had a plum location at the

route. A Best Buy was built at the former Dutch Pantry's
site. |

The
Dutch Pantry that Time Forgot:
Opened by Hospitality Motor Inns during the 1970s while
they were expanding their franchise, the Williamstown
Dutch Pantry somehow survived ownership changes and
the turbulent dissolution of the chain.
As
of the early 2000s it was one of only three intact original
Dutch Pantrys known to exist (Clearfield
and DuBois
were the others).
Left:
Operating in a time warp, Williamstown's trapezoid windmill
street-level sign beckoned patrons as recently as 2003. |

Update:
Chris M. reported that as of September 2008 Williamstown
was still a fully operating Dutch Pantry and noted that
"the food was very good and the pricing was spectacular."
--Thanks Chris! |
