Hard Hat Cafe II Reviews
I love it there, but some of the recent changes I’m unhappy with. For example, no more lotto or Keno, no more being able to hang out with the awesome workers after their shift.
Best burgers n fries around! Friendly, laid back atmosphere. Great way to end a stressful work week!
Great service and great people

The Hard Hat Cafe II offers a great selection of tap and bottled beers, with the wings being a standout dish. The bartenders are warm and friendly, providing excellent service. The menu features delectable "doob" wings that are seasoned, Buffalo-sauced, fried, and then finished on a grill. Customers also enjoy the Buffalo chicken dip, which has a good amount of chicken and just enough spice for flavor without burning your tongue. The restaurant serves a decent chili and spinach and artichoke dip, and the steak salad is cooked perfectly with well-balanced flavors. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and relaxed, making it a perfect spot for families. Options like nachos, sliders, and fried pickles are also available. The place is clean, including the restrooms, which reflects the owner’s attention to detail. Customers appreciate the attentive service from staff like Ayanna and the bartender, who makes drinks exactly as ordered. The lively vibe is often enhanced by trivia nights and live guitar playing, creating a fun environment. Many visitors find the service to be attentive and the environment welcoming, making Hard Hat Cafe II a place they look forward to returning to.
