Our Story

Welcome to Harry's Hardware and The Den

Where hardware meets community, and tools are not just for fixing things, but for building connections.

The journey began in 2017 when two couples embarked on a mission to create more than just a hardware store; they aimed to establish a welcoming space that would resonate with the heartbeat of our vibrant community.

Now a woman-owned and operated establishment, Harry’s Hardware is sets out to redefine the conventional hardware store experience; a place where locals, contractors, music enthusiasts, artists, and friends could come together to share moments of camaraderie over a backdrop of great Vermont craft beer and mouthwatering food.

Harry’s Hardware & The Den quickly became more than a watering hole; it became an integral part of Cabot – a local hub, an essential third place. Step inside, and you'll find shelves stocked not only with a diverse array of wares and hardware but also unique merchandise, gifts, and gardening, farm, and pet feed supplies. We're more than just a convenience store; we're a one-stop destination for all your needs, from household essentials to locally sourced treasures.

What sets Harry’s Hardware apart is the business’s commitment to supporting the great state of Vermont and its thriving small businesses. The every rotating selection of beer on tap is a celebration of the Green State, featuring only the finest craft brews and ciders made right here in Vermont. The menu proudly showcases food sourced within a 50-mile radius of Cabot, some ingredients even making their way from just down the road.

Picture this: sitting at the bar, perched on one of the tractor stools, savoring a cold Vermont craft brew, and engaging in lively conversations with locals or the fantastic staff. This is the essence of Harry’s Hardware & The Den – a place where hardware and hospitality coexist seamlessly.

Harry’s Hardware & The Den is not just a business; it's a reflection of our love for this great green state and the incredible people who call it home.

When The Den was introduced to Harry's Hardware, the hope was to create a fun gathering place. What was received in return was beyond anyone’s wildest expectations – an irreplaceable third place that the whole community is immensely proud of. Harry’s Hardware will be an integral part of the Cabot landscape for years to come, continuing to build connections, foster friendships, and contribute to the tapestry of this wonderful community.

Thank you for being a part of our journey.
