Hard Rock Cafe is a worldwide "casual dining restaurant chain", which opened
its first store in London in 1971 and includes, as of early 2006, 125 branches
in 39 countries. Above the main entrance of Hard Rock Cafe Lisbon, in Portugal,
(see
this photo) four flags
are hoisted from identical slanted poles: Two municipal flags of
Lisbon flanked by two white flags with the Hard Rock Cafe
logo.
I noticed that there is no additional inscription with the city name below
the logo, as in the famous T-shirts, this being thus a Hard Rock Cafe flag
and not a Hard Rock Cafe Lisbon flag.

In my trip to Colorado, I had the chance to go to Denver (very very nice by
the way!) Then I came to visit Hard Rock Cafe, and I saw a flag waiving outside
of the restaurant. It is the first time I see a flag from this restaurant (I've
been to the same restaurant in cities such as Miami, San Francisco, New York,
Las Vegas, etc.) and have never seen a flag waiving outside their facilities.
This might be a new policy (who knows). But for the time being, I'll send you
the images and hopefully you can work on that. I know that corporate flags
should not be displayed on FOTW but this is a very interesting case, sui generis
!
Description of the flag: Three stripes, equally divided in a horizontal manner,
the top and bottom in black and the middle stripe in white. Logo in front.
I actually was today inside Hard Rock Cafe in Denver, and got a chance to see
their flag up close. The coloros on the background are black and white and not
maroon. So if Eugene can correct the colors I would really appreciate it. And
also the ratio is the top and bottom stripes have the same width (and are
black).

I'm pretty sure all sorts of corporate flags
are already on FOTW, this isn't even the first eatery, I think McDonald's is up
somewhere.Why is this one sui generis? Never been to one myself, and likely
won't, either, as the local one just closed due to irreversible, terminal
trendiness hemmorhage.
I have the photos Esteban sent me right here, and must beg to differ. The
yelow disc is centered; The inscription "Hard Rock" occupies its upper half; and
the white stripe is horizontally centered on the inscription. As for the colors,
the photos were taken at night; I had assumed the dark parts were the same brown
as the inscription.
