History

Established in 1996.

The Huske Hardware House Restaurant and Brewery has been a historic downtown icon for over a decade, but the building itself has an even richer 114-year-old history, and is a part of the National Register of Historic Places. The original building was built in 1903 by Benjamin R. Huske as an all-inclusive department hardware store. The HHH Brand was established in 1904 and the hardware store stayed in operation for 67 years until closing in 1970. The original Victorian-era masonry frame was expanded over the years to accommodate the booming business. This included the addition of another story and another wing to the west (bar side) to add three more store fronts. Between 1970 and 1996, the building took on a variety of tenants, from furniture merchants to jewelry stores.n 1996 Dr. William Baggett renovated the east side of the building to create the restaurant and brewery of today, and we have continued the restoration into its current pristine condition.
