14 Locations Nationally The
Hard Times Cafe was not the
creation of a corporate think tank.
It was conceived as a continuation
of a family tradition, a desire
to maintain an important part of
America's culinary history and
the founders desire to create a
place that reflected his love of
American western art and culture.
Fred and Jim Parker pooled their
resources, mortgaged their homes
and opened the first Hard Times
Cafe in 1980. Since then, this
revival of a unique institution
has become a major presence in
American chili culture. |

| This Bar/Restaurant
located in Old Town Alexandria
is definately worth the hike up
King Street from the harbor. The
atmosphere and mood was fun and
friendly, the kind of place 'where
everybody knows your name'. We
think we saw Norm Peterson at the
end of the bar. Located on the
1000 block of King Street in Old
Town Alexandria |
