6 Unique General Store Lunch Stops in the Northeast

As any motorcyclist knows, there’s magic in discovering new backroads. A part of that magic is exploring the markets and general stores tucked away from the hustle of the city. They let us experience a little piece of the history of the general store—an important aspect of commerce

I've actually been to all of them. Although the General store in Centerville on Cape Cod was with the family in the car on vacation. All the rest I have been to on the bikes. Some of them in Cars as well. Is the Brick Store open again? It had been closed for a long time with the end of the world. IIRC, they had a sign saying closed permanently. I don't know if that still constitutes continuously operating. But I really enjoy a coffee and a bit of fresh fudge out near the covered bridge and falls.
The Warren store used to be better. It seems a little too city influenced recently. But still a nice spot to visit and have a sandwich next to the stream. There are other General stores they could have included as well. Maybe a sequel article. General stores, waterfalls and covered bridges are my favorite stops on trips/rides. A nice article that brings back memories.

Reading that makes me want to do some riding, and perhaps some stopping!

Where is this place?

Been by it a number of times when hopping notches by my lonesome, and also when riding in groups. Just can't remember where it is.

The above picture was taken during the '01 Spring Fling at Stratton Mountain, VT when riding with these characters:

FWIW - I know who they are.

EDIT: Found it.

It's the Old Hancock Hotel (Hancock, VT) at the intersection of Vermont Routes 100 and 125. Another pix revealed the route numbers.

I've eaten there. If I recall correctly, it was like sitting in Grandma's house. Knick Knacks all around, that I think were for sale. It's been a while. There are two nice waterfalls near by as well. Granville just up 100 a little bit. And I forget the other ones name. IIRC, It's just up the road off 125, on a connecting road.

I've eaten there as well, but it's been a while. Kinda bugged me that I couldn't remember where it was. Been though many of those roads over the years. Hard to keep track if you don't get back very often.
