Hard Rock Café

For Tastes of ByWard the Hard Rock Café at 73 York St. is
pleased to offer a
 
free dessert with the purchase of any two of
our Smoke House dinners. 

 
Our Roots are in the Southern cooking of our
founder's hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
Nothing's more authentically, delectably Memphis
than bar-b-que.
That's why we don't trust anybody else to smoke our
ribs, chicken and beef brisket, we do it all ourselves-
slowly, lovingly--right back there
in our in-house smoker.
