One of the iconic eateries in Wooster found its niche a long time ago and has continued to serve up hearty and delicious breakfast specials at a fair price ever since.
The Hard Hat, 845 Spruce St., is open for breakfast and lunch, 6 a.m.-1 p.m. Tuesday-Friday and 5:30 a.m.-noon Saturdays.
Opened in 1985, Paula Wireman bought the business from Jeanine Whitford around 12 years ago. Wireman, her daughter, Angie Morrow, and crew help keep things going.
Morrow said serving up fresh, hearty breakfasts has been a staple at Hard Hat for a long time.
“We do fresh home fries and we started buying our bacon locally,” Morrow said. “Most of our meals are homemade from the original recipes. We have stuck to the same things that have worked for a long time.”
The breakfast specials include eggs and more, starting with two eggs, homes fries and toast for $4.99. The bulldozer features eggs, home fries, bacon or sausage and biscuits and gravy.
Sausage, bacon, ham, chopped steak, country fried steak and corned beef hash are meat items offered.
A variety of omelets, served with toast, and french toast and hot cakes are also available off the griddle.
The luncheon menu features handheld sandwiches ranging from fried bologna to a slew of burgers, as well as patty melts, grilled chicken or ham and cheese. Dinner options are also available, along with soups and salads.
