Hos Harry’s Place sætter vi en ære i at videreformidle et stykke dansk madkultur til vores gæster, fra vores pølsevogn, der har ligget på Nørrebro siden 1965. Vi er ikke bange for at kalde os selv for Danmarks bedste pølsevogn – vi brænder nemlig for at give vores gæster gode madoplevelser, der baserer sig på friske råvarer af høj kvalitet samt respekt for pølsevognsklassikerne, der igennem mange år har været – og stadig er – elsket af både børn og voksne.
