Description of Historic Place
The Pork Store is a one-and-a-half storey wooden building with a steep pitched gable roof and a canopy along one side facade. It is located along the waterfront in Battle Harbour, NL and is one of several buildings that were part of mercantile operations in the community. The designation is confined to the footprint of the building.
Heritage Value
The Pork Store has been designated a Registered Heritage Structure by the Heritage Foundation of Newfoundland and Labrador for its historic and aesthetic values.
The Pork Store is historically valuable for its association with several notable merchant firms. Mercantile fishing premises were established at Battle Harbour by the firm of John Slade and Company of Poole, England in the early 1770s. Battle Harbour was a gateway to the rich fishing grounds of Labrador and was a primary port of call for fishing schooners involved in the Labrador fishery. Battle Harbour eventually became the capital of the Labrador floater fishery and developed into a year-round settlement. In 1871 John Slade and Company sold Battle Harbour to Baine Johnston and Co. Ltd., who operated from the site until 1955, when the premises were sold to Earle Brothers Freighting Services, who continued mercantile operations at Battle Harbour until the decline of the inshore fishery in the early 1990s.
The Pork Store also has historic value due to its age and as a physical reminder of a time when the cod fishery was the main industry in Newfoundland and Labrador. Studies suggest that the Pork Store is the oldest of the mercantile buildings constructed at Battle Harbour, possibly dating to 1800 or earlier. This would place it among some of the earliest documented buildings in the province. It was used to store wet provisions, such as salt pork, butter and oil. For generations buildings such as the Pork Store were a common sight in coastal communities where the fishery was an economic mainstay.
The Pork Store has aesthetic value as it is an excellent example of the type of building constructed by mercantile firms in the 19th century. Built with a steeply pitched gable roof, a canopy along one side and clad in wooden clapboard, such buildings were designed for practical use and had to endure the rigours of a harsh environment. The Pork Store is also notable as an example of full-studded construction. The Pork Store and other designated mercantile buildings in Battle Harbour are well-known buildings in the province and the entire premises is one of a few intact mercantile premises left in Newfoundland and Labrador.

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads in the world including adopted dads and pet pawrent dads! In honor of father’s day, we are highlighting D. D'Auria and Sons Pork Store in the Little Italy of the Bronx. This amazing pork 🐖 store was in business from 1938 until 2006. Sadly, this mom-and-pop shop was forced to close after its 2nd-generation owner Mike could no longer run the #shop (as told to us by Mike) and no younger family member was interested in taking over the business. The main reason, however, that so many small businesses in NYC close after decades of business is due to a huge rent increase as most owners do NOT own the building their shop is located in. 35mm film photo from 2004 and full interview appear in our book, “Store Front: The Disappearing Face of New York”.

Satriale's Pork Store is a fictional establishment on the HBO series, The Sopranos. The fake storefront is set and filmed in Kearny, NJ.
During the 1960s, the pork store was taken over by Giovanni "Johnny Boy" Soprano and associates of The DiMeo Crime Family when Mr. Satriale failed to make payments on a gambling debt and committed suicide. Since then, it has become a regular hangout for current members of the Gualtieri and Soprano crews. Although a mob owned establishment, Satriale's runs a legitimate business selling a variety of meats, pork and sausage. The store also has a coffee bar which sells pastries and espresso as seen in several episodes.

May you all have a very merry Christmas and enjoy "I'm a Lumberjack and I'm OK!" size brunches like this one during the yuletide celebrations!
Brunch was delicious fresh dungeness crab/cheese scramble, perfect crunchy, tasty hash browns and homemade biscuits.
Satriale's Pork Store building on Google Street View. Visible from Dukes Street, already torn down from Kearny Avenue. I suppose the bigger roads get more frequent updates.
The most wrealz pork store I know (besides Bari's): Esposito's in Carroll Gardens. Makes Satriale's look like Starbucks.
The owner demolished the building, sold pieces of the facade on Ebay and planned to build an apartment complex named The Soprano. Never happened.
Seen in the Mission District of San Francisco, this popular breakfast restaurant serves hooka pipes at night.
Here's David ordering som sausages for OccupySandy. Faicco's was a marvel to walk in and people watch. A pure Italian Brooklyn pork store.
Aka arancini. These were impossibly light and had rice, Parmesan, oregano, mozzarella, and prosciutto.
