Hard Hat Tavern,

100 New Haven Rd, Durham, CT 06422, United States

"We had our company holiday luncheon here. I can't rave enough about every aspect of our experience. Beginning with the 1st call to Hard Hat, the treatment we received was top notch. Missy was beyond accommodating. She worked with me every step of the way to be sure our menu selection and quantities were going to leave smiles and full bellies. We decided on wings and salad for starters. The wings came in 3 flavors...spicy, plain, and buffalo...something to satisfy all tastebuds! The Hard Hat salad was loaded with fixings. It's now one of my favorites. For entrees, we had meatloaf and chicken parm. Both equally as delicious as the other! The meatloaf came with creamy mashed potatoes and we added penne vodka and broccoli. All were perfect sides! The room was festively decorated and the food was delicious! Katie, our server, didn't miss a beat! She and Missy were constantly attending to our needs and making sure the food never ran out. Just when I thought they couldn't make us any happier, they threw in FRESHLY BAKED chocolate chip cookies. They were bigger than my hand!!! Missy, Katie, and the Hard Hat staff, we thank you for helping to make our holiday celebration absolutely wonderful!"

"So nice, we ate outside. I love pub style places. The mozzarella wedges were amazing with a nice spice, all of the food is fantastic. The waiters and waitresses are all cute kids, so sweet. They did great jobs"

"This is a good restaurant with a hearty menu. Services is friendly, the cocktails are tasty and the food good. We tried the wings since a lot of people on here recommended them and were not disappointed!"

"Cozy and welcoming atmosphere super friendly staff! Great meal. The Bison burger was cooked to perfection. My wife had the Turkey club which was great but huge, so she took some home! I’m glad this place is doing so well, I’ll be back to sample more of their menu"
