Avenue in Hartford's south end. There, he
would get coffee, breakfast and hold court.
Miller believes Pep would have loved his
namesake cafe in a locale known as "Hard-
hittin" New Britain.

said with a laugh. "Having his coffee. He'd

Stan Simpson is the principal of Stan Simp-
son Enterprises LLC, a strategic communi-
cations consulting firm. He is also host of
"The Stan Simpson Show" which airs Sat-
urday, 5:30 a.m., on Fox CT — and online
at www.fox61.com/stan. Pep's Corner Cafe is adorned with pictures and fond memories of Hartford boxing icon Willie Pep.
