Here's what I could find on them. Apparently, they got out of the restaurant business in the '90's.
COMPANY NEWS; Horn & Hardart Restaurant Sale Set
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Published: December 22, 1990
The Horn & Hardart Company, one of America's pioneering restaurant companies, announced plans to divest itself of the last of its restaurants. Horn & Hardart, with headquarters in Weehawken, N.J., said that by the end of March it would sell or otherwise divest itself of the 83-unit buffet-style International King's Table Inc., which operates on the West Coast.
The move would mark the end of the food service and mail order company's involvement in restaurants, which began in 1902 when the luncheonette owners Joseph Horn and Frank Hardart opened their first Automat in Philadelphia. At its heydey, there were 40 of the waiterless Automats in New York. The company has already put up for sale its last Automat on 42d Street in midtown Manhattan, its five Tony Roma's restaurants in New York City and the Paddlewheel Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nev., where the company is incorporated.
