Hard Rock Cafe Memorabilia


Hard Rock Cafe was founded by Americans Isaac Tigrett and Peter Morton in London around 1971. They started their tradition of covering the walls with rock and roll memorabilia in 1979. Hard Rock Cafe started with just one memorabilia of rock and roll back in the seventies. It's an Eric Clapton guitar, who at that time is the Fender Lead II of a very known band.Since Clapton is a regular customer and eventually became friends with the proprietors, he asked them to save him a regular table and put up a brass plaque or something. And that is where the young proprietors suggested that instead, they put up his guitar for display. Without any hesitation he handed over his guitar and after a week another guitar arrived from Pete Town shed of The Who. This has become a trend and the guitars never stopped coming. Today, there are more than 70,000 collection of guitars, drums, pianos, harmonicas, microphones, shirts, pants, scarves, shoes, handwritten lyrics, cars, bikes, and assorted rock of memorabilia.

In January 12 1995, hard Rock Cafe San Antonio was opened. It is situated along the city's most popular Riverwalk area and they have a three-story building over looking the river and the slow moving tourist boats. They have a great interior and exterior architectural design which helps attract more customers, aside from it's already popular name of course. The interior of the restaurant has excellent lighting and wall decorations are the main attraction, while the exterior patio has a tremendous view of the river and flowers and plants are planted in a fiberglass planters which are customized into round or jar and jug or into a fiberglass urn shape, which really mixed well with the environment. The hours of operation for their restaurant and bar starts from 11 am Monday to Sunday.

 

So if ever you are in the state, try to visit their cafe and for sure you would love the place and the menu they serve as well. rest assure that they are serving fresh, handmade, classic American cooking with a Southern flair that still reflects the Tennessee roots of their co-founder Isaac Tigrett.
