If you call it "Barn Stable" everyone will know you're no Cape Codder. Here, it's called "BARN-stbl". But why barn, and why stable, for the name of a town?
The answer awaits you at the Barnstable General Store, seen here as it looks from the County Courthouse on historic Route 6A. Serving the public since around 1900, the store features cards, groceries, liquor, and a delicatessen.
