Harry’s Hardware

They got themselves a watering hole in Cabot, Vermont … Harry’s. You know it’s Harry’s, because it’s written that way on a sap bucket.

And there’s a buck proudly mounted on the wall.

Outside, there are gas pumps. Hey look! There a Cabot truck filled with cheese! The Cabot Creamery is just up the street.

Inside they sell hardware, dontchuknow. Stuff for working people.

And good stuff you need on the farm.

It’s ice fishing season, so you’ve got to sell bait. Harry’s does. You can almost taste those fried perch. I like mine with lots of tah-tah sauce.

But where Harry’s is different from your average hardware store is they have a bar where you can sit on tractor-seat stools.

At the bar you can order beer & a dog. At Harry’s this means a selection of local craft beer and a hot dog with kimchi (a Vermont specialty). They’ve got homemade empanadas and egg rolls, too.

Not surprisingly, Harry’s is popular with the locals.

And if you’re looking for some action, there’s always some loose women ready to provide it.

If you think you’ve stepped out of 2024 and stumbled onto the set for the tv series Northern Exposure you just may be right!
