Kevin Hart\u2019s vegan fast food chain \u2018Hart House\u2019 shuts down after just two years Twitter: myharthouseComedian and actor Kevin Hart\u2019s vegan fast-food chain, Hart House, has suddenly shut down all its locations just two years after its debut. Hart House, the plant-based fast-food chain co-founded by Kevin Hart, abruptly shut down all four of its locations on September 10, 2024, just two years after its launch. CEO Andy Hooper confirmed the closures in a statement to Eater LA: \u201cThe response to the product has been incredible, and we thank our committed team, customers, and community partners for their unwavering support.\u201d The chain offered its own proprietary plant-based burgers, chicken sandwiches, and nuggets, steering clear of popular brands like Beyond and Impossible. Its flagship store, which opened in 2023, was situated in a high-traffic Hollywood location, close to competitors like In-N-Out and Chick-fil-A. In an Instagram post, shared by Hart House\u2019s official account, the restaurant wrote: \u201cTo our team, guests, and community, who helped make the change we all craved. A Hartfelt goodbye for now as we start a new chapter.\u201d Back in August 2022, before the opening of his plant-based restaurant chain, Kevin told The Hollywood Reporter that he wanted to offer \u201ca plant-based option\u201d after noticing a shortage of vegan choices in fast food. The comedian had previously shared in 2020 that he had adopted a mostly plant-based diet. \u201cIf I can give people a place to have the option that\u2019s placed smack dab in the middle of where your McDonald\u2019s, Chick-fil-A, and Burger King [are], people may see a Hart House and say, \u2018I\u2019m going to go plant-based today,’\u201d he said. Hart House had locations in Westchester, Monrovia, University Park, and Hollywood. Notable influencers who visited include renowned food reviewer Keith Lee and social media star Jordan Howlett. As of now, the reason for the closures has not been publicly announced.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
