Hard Core Cafe

Hard Core Cafe sits at the motorcycle‑shop block in Gladstone, serving casual bar food and pizza in a 2,600 sq ft room with a true biker‑bar vibe. It’s run by the owners of Hard Core Customs and shares the same motorcycle‑centric community events and feel.

The space features beer on tap, live music nights, a pool table, pinball and darts, plus a separate smoking area called the “Burn Pit.” Typical menu items include pizzas, subs, sandwiches and shareable appetizers; verify current hours and nightly events on the cafe’s official site before visiting.

A straightforward, relaxed bar/cafe atmosphere popular with riders and locals. Expect louder evenings when live music is scheduled and a mix of table and bar seating.

• Pizza options including the signature combo and classic subs and sandwiches.

• A rotating beer selection and full bar service.

• Game features: pool table, Harley‑Davidson pinball and dart boards.

• A separate outdoor/covered smoking area called the “Burn Pit.”
