Description
You can trace the history of Hart's Corner Bar & Restaurant, 5201 West Mississippi Avenue, through the black-and-white photos hanging on one wall of the building. Hailed as the oldest business in Lakewood, it got its start as a root-beer stand during Prohibition, then became a small barbecue joint/gas station in the '30s, expanded in the '50s into a bigger restaurant, turned into a biker bar -- and then some folks gave it a go as nightclub with DJs. But when the Moutsos family took it over again in April 2011, they brought Hart's back to the way it was: a gathering place where families would come in with their kids and feel comfortable. A breakfast-lunch-and-dinner menu includes omelets, Greek and Mexican food, burgers, salads, sandwiches and steaks.
