    We had dinner and were able to eat outside. It was quiet and lovely. We didn't need heaters, but they were there in case. We started with the Dillinger side car----a great drink. I had the fish tacos. They were delicious---not quite a main meal for heavier eaters, but I wasn't too hungry so they were perfect. My friend ordered the St Louis ribs. Magnificent! Tasty and meaty.

    Had a wonderful experience at HUB Restaurant & Ice Creamery. The atmosphere was welcoming and comfortable, and the service was excellent. We ordered burgers which were delicious and perfectly prepared. The drink selection was great - we enjoyed some sodas and I particularly liked their Hazy IPA. The restaurant offers a nice blend of casual dining with quality food and attentive service. The staff was friendly and helpful throughout our meal. Would definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for good burgers in a pleasant setting with great service.
