The Spot Cafe in Dean St Albury owned by Dimitrios Veneris. The three waitresses were Australian ladies. The men in the photo from left to right were John Veneris, Dimitrios Veneris, Andreas Fatseas and George Veneris. John and George were Dimitrios' sons. Photo taken in the early 1950's.

I questioned my father and uncle (George and John Veneris respectively) about the waitresses. They said that the two taller waitresses on either side of the waitress in the middle were sisters. One of them was called Joyce and their surname sounded like Weet or Wheat?? They also had a younger sister who worked at the shop at a later time. The name of the middle waitress has been forgotten.

Can I ask if the Veneris family purchased The Spot Cafe from Peter Harris, who owned it in the early 1940s and was a greyhound breeder and racer in Albury around the same time? He was a Greek migrant who anglicised his name from Haralambous, was married to Olive Gebhardt and had a son, Harry George Harris. Huge thanks! Karen van Harskamp (Olive Harris was my Great Aunt)

The Spot Cafe was originally a cake shop which was purchased by Peter Harris and Peter Castrisios and became the Spot Cafe. After World War II Peter Harris retired from the business and the new partnership was Peter Castrisios and Dimitrios (Jim) Veneris (my Grandfather).
