Tessa Wendling moved home to Halstead from Chicago and found the charm of the former Old Hardware Store irresistable. She transformed the historic building into a trendy cafe complete with pressed tin ceiling, chandeliers and chrome and velvet seating. While you're sampling a delicious coffee, breafkast or lunch you'll still see glimpses of the old hardware store everywhere. The rolling wooden ladder and shelving that once held all the bolts and gadgets are a focal point of this chic restaurant. Tue 7am-3pm; Wed 7am-5pm; Thu-Fri 7am-5pm; Sat 8am-6pm. NOTE FOR PICNICKERS! If you would like to keep the fuss and muss to a minimum, Tessa is making it easy by selling picnic dinner boxes. You MUST reserve one ahead of time and pick up between 2-6pm on Saturday, September 6. Details about menu items to choose from and how to order coming soon!

Pair your pick with a cup of coffee to go. For the best selection, arrive early—fresh-baked goods are available in the display case until noon, after which they're packaged and sold in the grocery store. Tuesday-Saturday 7am-12pm.
