Hardware

Hardware is a sustainable gastropub and brewery known for its large whiskey list, with over 1,000 whiskeys from around the world, and for its greenhouse-grown lettuce and herbs. The menu includes salads like Grilled Bacon and Shrimp Caesar, smoked salmon and steak entrees, and charcuterie. Its brewery, BBGB, makes beer using hops grown on the property's hop farm.

The kitchen serves dinner, lunch and brunch, and the bar is open late on Friday and Saturday nights. Private events and gift cards are available by calling the restaurant, and whiskey dinners are held from time to time. Hardware is in North Aurora at 2000 W. Orchard Road.
