My FavoritesInformation
Hardware—a sustainable gastropub & brewery serving delicious food and over 350 whiskeys
The newest entrant into the Aurora Area's culinary scene is also its most celebrated, with a mission of sustainability that extends to the reclaimed architecture, including the "living wall" that greets you with fresh herbs and greens. Generous patio seating is accompanied by a roaring fire pit and gathering space and strings of fresh hops from the adjacent BBGB Hop Farm, where essentials for Hardware's illustrious craft brews are grown on-site. Menus rotate seasonally based on availability but some standbys are already a hit with locals and visitors alike, including Hardware's "deconstructed Chicago Hot Dog," a decadent treat that must be tasted to be understood.
