Reviews

Great food and good drinks. The crispy cauliflower is amazing. The banana pepper dip cannot be described fairly, you really have to try it. Pizzas are fabulous! They have a wide selection of top shelf liquor and what I was told, were some pretty good beers.

Today was my first time at Hydraulic Hearth and I absolutely loved it. As soon as we walked in, the whole place smelt wonderful. I had the Barella pizza and a wonderful cocktail that was very refreshing. The atmosphere was wonderful, the wait staff were attentive, and the bartenders were knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient. Will definitely be returning!

The hot honey and short ribs pizzas were delicious! We had bourbon BBQ wings for an appetizer - very tasty! Great atmosphere, friendly bartenders, and we loved the architecture of the brick building. We will be back! Cheers!

lovely little gem, a little pricey but the quality matches the cost and the portions are generous. We could’ve split a pizza but leftovers are always appreciated the fries were top notch and excellent beer selections. Food came incredibly quickly.

We had our wedding at Hydraulic Hearth. Harry and the Hydraulic Hearth staff did an amazing job. The food was great, and they prepared plenty of it. They had two bartenders, so no guest had to wait long for a drink, and the drinks were phenomenal. The bartenders were able to make any drink requested by guests, which was much appreciated. The venue itself is amazing for a summer/late spring/early fall wedding because, in addition to a large indoor space, the outdoor space is great for cocktail hour and dinner. Harry was great to work with throughout the planning process as well.

We had two delicious craft cocktails, split a Caesar salad (delicious, creamy. Incredible homemade croutons) a burrata pizza (the marinated tomatoes and crisped prosciutto were incredible) and the fries! (Perfectly done, salted enough, hot, and the malt vinegar aioli is incredible). Lots of seating at 7 on a Friday night. We sat down. Decided what we wanted, then ordered at the bar. We got our food incredibly quickly and it was delicious. The playlist was great and we sang along as we happy ate. Portions were large so we took home leftovers. We'll be back!
