    Just a delightful experience at The Hub Cafe. Came in on a Sunday morning around 10:30-11 and found a seat for 2 fairly easily. Coffee was hot and delicious, biscuit was savory with the yummy jam, avocado toast was delightful, and breakfast bowl was life-changing. Shout out to the staff for recommending I add syrup to the bowl - it sent it over the top. Friendly atmosphere, good food, and easy location means I'll be adding this to my rotation.

    Breakfast Bowl

    Food was good and they offer alternative options for people with food restrictions (like vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free,etc.) which is a plus. The Chai tea was grainy and very spiced, which didn't suit our tastes. Cute dishes and cutlery. We did have to ask for our water to be refilled, but they were busy and didn't have many people working so that's understandable to some degree.

    Found this delightful care for lunch. I had the huevous rancheros. It was delicious. Full of black beans and sauce. I added a side of backing. We sat on the back patio which overlooked an amphitheater and a walking park. The staff was wonderful and the day perfect.

    Molé chilaquiles
    Andre C.

    I've been coming to the Hub Cafe for years and they have never let me down. On my most recent visit I ordered molé chilaquiles. The molé was a less intense and heavier on cumin than other molés that I have had, but it was delicious soaked up with the thick chips. The braised pork shoulder that came on the chilaquiles was very tender and moist. Feta sprinkled on top added a bit of funk that made the dish more interesting. Overall, I was impressed by the execution of these chilaquiles, especially from a restaurant that isn't Mexican. I ordered a cold brew coffee with homemade pumpkin syrup as my drink, and it was also great. The Hub Cafe consistently has great coffee. The service was good as well. Even though this cafe is a bit pricey, they rarely disappoint and they support other local businesses so I think it's worth every penny.

    Blueberry Power Bowl
    Amber N.

    Service was prompt and the food was delicious....you won't find offerings like this anywhere else in town. The new mural is gorgeous! Tried the Blueberry Power Bowl....oatmeal, granola, blueberries, banana and peanut butter. Very filling and a delicious combo of flavors!

    Breakfast sandwich with added bacon
    Carley R.

    Stopped in for a quick brunch. It is a super cute cafe where you order at a window and they bring the food out to your table. We went on a Saturday morning right before the rush and our food came out quickly. I got the breakfast sandwich and added bacon. It was really good but needed a little bit more aioli. The sandwich was on a homemade biscuit that was sooooooo good. I also got an iced chai latte and it was really good as well. My friends enjoyed their food as well. There is street parking and then a parking lot with extra space across the street which made it convenient. I'd recommend checking it out but be prepared for a line if stopping in on a Saturday morning!

    Huevos Rancheros
    Sarah A.

    The staff are charming and polite. The ambiance is light and bright, and the food... let me tell you. These Huevos Rancheros are the best I've had. The floral notes from the corn tortilla hit your nose, then you taste the black beans, the red and green salsa, the perfectly cooked eggs, the pickled onions, crispy tortilla strips, cilantro, and omg that feta... I don't even like feta, but theirs is something else. 10/10 would recommend.

    Came here for the first time and I probably shouldn't have came here starving. I ordered the Huevos rancheros and french toast. Realistically I wasn't expecting anything authentic but obviously nothing so small in terms of portion. The Salsa was flavorless, the huevos rancheros were more like two eggs on top of a tortilla. Im a small gal but ate my meal in 5-6 bites. The French toast on the hand was delicious however, I was kind of disappointed to see that they had already put the syrup and I couldn't do it myself. I love to drown my French toast in it.. Definitely don't come here hungry overall the food was good but not worth a brunch like meal. It was more of small bites meal. The coffee was great! You have to order your food at the counter and then find around seating if that's what you're into.

    So we're finally here getting to try what I am seeing other customers eating. One having Biscuits n Gravy. Wow. REALLY good everything. Order as one walks in. Coffee latte drinks here also. They are pretty good. Honey syrup. Local sourced foods place here. I have not been to many. More restaurants are trying this. Is healthier for sure. Anything besides cans or packaged parts! I am enjoying Smoky Pork and Local Mushroom Grits. B have Fall French Toast. Both beautiful and amazing good. This has been a unique food experience.

    Kale Salad with Mixed Greens
    Haylee M.

    Tldr: Very limited menu, No options for substitutions, small serving size. Food is flavorful, but very hit or miss Came here on a last minute plan change and I was actually quite disappointed by the food. I got the Kale salad; I asked for dressing on the side, And the person who took my order said okay. But it came all dressed. I went to return it and ask for it on the side and they said they would not be able to do that because the kale is massaged with the salad dressing. I ended up just returning that and asking for a regular side salad instead. They gave me more quantity of that same salad with the toppings but used mixed greens instead. Very small serving size here considering it's supposed to be an entree item. It was a good combination with the beet and the goat cheese, but eating any parts separately was not good at all. The dressing by itself wasn't too great either. I also asked them for an option to add some chicken or the protein to the salad and there was none. This is the biggest surprise because most restaurants are able to offer some additions. I got slices of toast on the side and it was actually over toasted so the bread was too hard. The jam that came with was also very tart and a bit sour as opposed to sweet so I ended up having that toast plain. I'm usually quite a fan of plain toasted bread, but this was a bit too hard for that to be enjoyable. My fiance got the Chicken Bulgogi Tacos and really loved it. I tried a piece and not going to lie, I was actually really good! Very good balance of everything and it came with a little bit of mixed greens which you could add to the salad. Not a lot of places do that so we were appreciated that they actually added some vegetables on. He also got a vanilla latte but there was nothing too fancy about it he said. The friend we went with got a giant mocha and also a Hub Skillet. She said everything tasted really good and it was loaded with a lot of stuff, but we both agreed that the serving size was quite small.

We had Brussels sprouts and calamari for appetizers. Both dishes were crispy and had great flavor. The sprouts had a sweet balsamic glaze which complimented the earthiness well. The calamari had an airy, crispy breading and a plethora of sauces to choose from for dipping, my favorite being the cocktail sauce which was savory and tangy. For the entree I had a lettuce wrapped cheeseburger and I was really impressed. The beef was juicy and fresh while the condiments were fresh as well. The fries were so good, too! They were crispy, seasoned well and tasted amazing with the ranch. For dessert we had crème brûlée, YUM! The sugar coating was a perfect amount of waxy and sweet, and balanced well with the vanilla custard. The custard was creamy, decadent and super satisfying. The vibe of the restaurant is homey, upscale and warm, great place for a celebration or date night.

I didn't drink, but my friends had lots of lovely concoctions floating around. We shared the Parmesan Sirloin Fondue as an appetizer and WOW--this was a favorite. The house-made green chile cheese dip is basically a spicy, savory roux topped with crispy steak tips. It was rich, a little spicy, and incredibly satisfying. I really loved this and would absolutely order it again. I ordered the Chicken Parmesan, and it came with a nice, thick piece of chicken--always appreciated. The San Marzano tomato sauce was good and flavorful, and the dish was well-balanced overall. I'm a little picky about breading, and I didn't love it but flavor-wise it's spot on. I had total plate envy for the teriyaki steak bowl. It looks phenomenal and I will definitely be ordering that next time. One friend had the Moody Bleu Burger (without the jalapeños) and said it was still a bit spicy but tasty overall. Another friend ordered the Veggie Burger, and she said it was really good. She often orders veggie burgers and felt this one held its own. Someone else at the table compared it to the veggie burger at Leadbelly, with high praise. The Bistro Burger was also a hit flavor-wise--Swiss cheese, caramelized onions, and mushrooms worked well together--but the only downside was that the bottom bun got pretty soggy. Fleetwood is definitely worth checking out, and it's a little bit tricky to find, but it's right under the bridges under O St.

And they do offer cocktails, soda and iced tea Hubby and I have gone non alcoholic and we chose ice tea. We had salmon cakes for appetisers, it came out quick Delicious crispy. Hubby's salad came out pretty much the same time. It looked delicious and fresh. Combination of vegetables and tomatoes, croutons and dried cranberries and cheese make the salad look delectable and it didnt disappoint. We both took awhile to decide what we wanted. Every dish looked delicious. We finally decided on steak and meatloaf. My meatloaf is to die for. The meatloaf was juicy and had crispy edges with anice tomato sauce on top on a base of mashed potato. The asparagus was perfectly sauteed. Tender not overly done. We then ordered desserts. Hubby ordered the brownie and I got the strawberry mousse. The brownie was light and delicate yet decadent. Let me explain- the brownie is light like a lava cake its a cross between a brownie and a lava cake. Absolutely delish!! It was served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Both of our fries arrived a little cooler than I would expect for freshly made items. The sweet potato fries were crispy, yet lacked flavor. The truffle fries were disappointing. They were very dry and had what seemed like seasoning and cheese dumped in the container. I'd expect some oil for the "truffle" label, but there appeared to be none. Overall, I'd be willing to give Honest Abe's another try for their sides and try another burger to see how it compares!
