    But first lets tag it with some cafe graffiti.

    And it's yet another thing to conjure up such a campaign in one's imagination when it doesn't exist. What long-term effort? This thread was active for 12 hours short of a week in June, and was revived a couple days ago, garnering 20 or so new posts. Big whoop. Some people have had a bad experience with the guy. That word has spread. Some people like the food he serves and have had no problem with him, others like his food and can see where he's a problem and overlook it. Big whoop. Hope you enjoy both the man's food and his company when you stop by. Hope the same for all who do. I'll probably steer clear, but I ain't losing sleep over it anyhow.

    I swear the more posts I see about how good the sangwiches are, the more I want to stop by. So the guy's an SOB, a good hogie or one pound turkey on a hard roll is a pretty valuable commodity. Leave your pack outside and respect the fussy shopowner. But he shouldn't have been mean to Sunshine, though. I can see that annoying people. ...

    It's interesting how people have varying experiences at places like this, some good, some bad. I'm sure a lot of it is one or the other or both getting up on the wrong side of the bed and having a bad day. I had a negative experience at Standing Bear but most posters seem to be okay with the place, just as some are okay with Joe. In my case, granted I may have been a grumpy old man after walking all day and I'll take at least half the responsibilty, but the owner trying to start a physical conflict with another hiker who was a 71 yr old man because he opened a wrong door looking for someone to help him is not acceptable under any circumstances, same with Joe, cut a 12 yr old girl a break!

    Driver8, you won't walk past Joe's, the smell of fresh cut turkey will suck you in!
    And those ice cold cans of Mug root beer are priceless!

    Yeah, Cook. There's good food in Hartford area, greater food in New Haven. Italian is most famous in the Have, but there's a panoply of good restaurants from around the world in that town. I picked a great place to go to college.

    I used to have a dear 80-something italian landlady in Hartford who would speak glowingly of the best "churches" in town for "brozhoot." Religious fervor comes upon you quickly in such cases. ...

    OK, now you're just tormenting me, Don. I ain't got time to drive down to Jersey right now, dadgummit. That's it! I'm starting a flame war!

    Favorite hikers I met this spring. They did 19 miles this day. The little girl was still pretty peppy, the dad was done for.

    Found this review on Yelp I am surprised some one dug this old thread up.

    6/17/2012 This is a horrible place run by a crazed lunatic. He has the cops called on him almost weekly by customers that he has screamed, cussed at and scared away. No public restroom, Seriously, this guy is nuts and go here only if you want to be yelled and cussed at.
    Dogs are excellent judges of character, this fact goes a long way toward explaining why some people don't like being around them.

    This thread was started 6/14.

    "Somebody" bitched on Yelp 6/17.

    The question is which WB member this is.
