Harry;s place was originally owned by Harry Smuckler. My father Ruby Cohen took the place over after an illness forced Harry out of work. My dad was about 17 years old. Ruby moved the building from the center of Colchester down the street about 3/4 of a mile and there it sits today. Ruby sold the business in 1977 and retired. Ruby had five children 4 of which worked there full time every summer for over 50 years that Ruby owned the place. The meat came fresh daily and Ruby only purchased the best prime available. If the daily delivery did not look perfect back it went and he would purchase the meat elsewhere. The rolls came from Colchester Bakery daily. My brother & I kick ourselves daily for not taking the place over what a gold mine.
Pros: Great food
Cons: slow service poor attitude
