The Hard Rock Cafe in River North is closing in March after nearly 40 years in business.
The restaurant, at 63 W. Ontario St., opened in 1986 and is known for its “rock n’ roll” memorabilia and the giant, guitar-shaped neon sign. But after nearly 40 years, the business will permanently close its doors March 29.
“Hard Rock has enjoyed serving the Windy City community for nearly 40 years and playing a role in the city’s celebrated dining culture,” a Hard Rock Cafe spokesperson said Tuesday. “We are so grateful to our incredible team members, community partners and fans for their support and memories all this time.”
Hard Rock did not give a reason for the closure but said it would provide current employees “outplacement support and resources” and encouraged them to apply for other open positions within the company.
Hard Rock has 319 other locations in 79 countries, including the Hard Rock Casinos in suburban Rockford and Northern Indiana.
