A restored 1960 International Metro Harvester “canteen” serving coffee, pastries & modern nostalgia throughout the North Shore (MA).
Meet Hattie.
Genuine history.
Our old “Hattie” (short for Harriet, the Harvester) has had a journey that has been anything but ordinary. Originally she was built for and used by the United States Air Force as a delivery vehicle around the base which makes her a Veteran! Original stamps and other hardware are a true testament. Some feel that she actually dates back to the ‘50s, but no one likes to tell their true age (wink wink)….
We’ve held onto every little detail possible and given her a minimally invasive refresh, although the engine has been rebuilt and some of her blemishes have been filled, she’s still the heart and soul of an original USA built machine. For vintage engines and vintage humans.

More Than a Food Truck
The Googans Canteen, a 1960 International, became our rolling version of everything we love about what a Googan represents. Whether we're parked at a brewery, classic car show, harbor festival or private event, the Canteen is designed to bring people together around good food and good conversation. Because life is better when you “Give it a Googan.”
