I've heard of The Hub when it first opened but had never visited. The food has changed a lot since then, according to many I've talked to. And I also haven't heard the best reviews about their food. We came on a Wednesday evening around 6 for dinner. They've got a parking lot right in front of it, but you can find parallel parking pretty easily around here. The space looks nice! They've got an outdoor patio area and two rooms on either side of the hostess stand to sit in. The room we sat in was dimly lit with pool tables. They had also decorated a bit for fall/Halloween. I got free popcorn for the table with a check-in. Yum! Not sure what was seasoned one it, but it was good. We also got fried pickles to share for the table. It was a generous portion! The sauce with it was also fantastic! I ordered the fried chicken sandwich with fries. The fries were perfectly crunchy and the chicken was flavorful. My only complaint was that my chicken was doused in sauce, that it lost its crunch and kept falling out the sandwich. The Daytona sauce I asked to be put on it was good though. My table mates ordered the burger and the house salad. My friend said the burger was bland although it was juicy. My other friend had no complaints about the salad. It was happy hour though, so we did try the drinks. I wanted the KY mule, but they were out of the syrup. I tried the scarlet lady: Tito's vodka with lemon, blueberry lavender syrup and Cocchi Rosa. It was delicious! My friend got Wren Bird: New Amsterdam vodka, lemon, early grey syrup, sparking wine, and orange oil. It was refreshing! My other friend got West sixth amber ale beer. I think this is a great place to hang out with friends. It can especially accommodate large groups. I'd recommend coming for drinks and apps!

Mimosa

I have only been here for brunch, but I definitely want to go back for more. I'm basic and looove brunching on the weekends. The Hub is such a cool, relaxed spot (during the day at least... It turns into a club in the evenings). I try not to overstuff myself at brunch to save room for the cocktails of course, so I opted for the avocado toast. So YUMMY! Sourdough, sweet pepper relish, arugula, chili oil, soft boiled egg, and sea salt. It can also come vegan, as well. And then for the brunch cocktail deals.... Single mimosa $2 Double mimosa $4 Bottle $14 Not sure you can beat that!! Great place for brunch.. or even their drag brunches!

I have been to The Hub many times for brunch and a few times for dinner or just a drink. The staff and service are always wonderful. The location is great right in the middle of Frankfort Avenue making it convenient when shopping or spending time on Frankfort Avenue. For dinner, the adult grilled cheese is a great choice and very good! The nachos are a great appetizer to share with friends, and all cocktails I have had are great! The espresso martini was good, not the best I've had but good. For brunch, the avocado toast is usually good but when I went this past weekend they had changed from using avocado slices to a mashed version that wasn't as good. Everyone in my group was very happy with their meals, the breakfast burrito, chicken and grits, and smoked salmon toast are all great they said! They also have great mimosa deals for brunch! I went for the Galentine's Brunch and the place was decorated and they had cute pink menus and strawberry mimosas! Definitely recommend will be back!

Eggs in Purgatory
Michele C.

It was a lovely day when we went to brunch at The Hub! Everything was so tasty! I'm not a grits person but I took a chance on the cheese grits! OMG, so good! It went well with the Eggs in Purgatory! My bestie got the Chicken and Grits, also yummy. I tried it, just enough spice! It was like a buffalo chicken. Perfect with the grits. It was nice seeing things starting to open back up. Looking forward to more outings as things get back to normal! For drinks we started with Mimosas! After That I got a Slay Then Rosé cocktail. Refreshing! Next time I'll just drink that and skip the mimosas it was so good!

It's An Island Ting
Ashleigh S.

Yummy brunch deliciousness from Sunday Funday! Thanks to the Hub for hosting our amazing group. The service was excellent for our party of 16! I have a new favorite cocktail and it is their "It's An Island Ting". I can honestly say I have never had a drink with pistachio milk, but it was delicious! The toasted coconut was another nice surprise to this fun drink! It's An Island Ting -Lychee, Pistachio milk, Oolong and citrus infused New Amsterdam Vodka Many delicious entrées and apps were enjoyed. I had the Boneless Wings. The crumbles of blue cheese and shaved pepperoncini peppers were a nice touch! Boneless Wings -With our house brown butter buffalo sauce, blue cheese, pepperoncini or house Korean bbq sauce with green onions and peanuts.

Roasted Beet Salad - 4.5/5
Ali B.

The hub has routine and weekly specials, seasonal alcoholic beverages, and rotating food menu, and they always range from 3.5-4 they just strike me with inconsistency. The place is wait to be seated or seat yourself in the bar, with food, beverages, dance floor on weekends and holidays in additional to pool tables and one or two more games. Atmosphere is suitable for friends hangout, dates, after work dinner (open after 4-5 pm daily) and own parking. They always have burger, fries, chicken sandwich, phenomenal asparagus and Brussels sprouts sides, daily different flavor pop corn and the rest change but I recently been enjoying their salads, appetizers but been having issues with my burgers here which by the way 2 for the price of one on Wednesday, dine in only. No much more to stay, I enjoy coming here for the atmosphere but afraid that some food may disappoint me. Cheers

Hub Avocado Toast
Shelley S.

We had a girls brunch on a Sunday. The options are limited but we were all pleased with our food options. Absolutely love the mimosa specials. $1 a piece. Super tasty and what a value! The chicken and grits was one of a kind and would get it again. Can't wait to go back again. The service was great, the place seemed empty considering this place is usually super busy.

Kelci W.

I love the Hub for dinner, but hadn't ever been there for brunch. This review is for 2 separate visits. 1) The service was really great and so was the food quality. I got the biscuits and gravy which I loved! The gravy was a little cold but nothing that was worth complaining over. For my fiancé, he loved his meal but wished that he had gotten a little more food. He left still feeling hungry. 2) The second time I went back for brunch I actually got the grilled cheese from the normal menu because I like it so much. The Brussels sprouts tasted a little different than normal, but it still a fan fave!

Sunday brunch
Lorie L.

It's been awhile since my last visit to The Hub, and I came this time for the Halloween drag brunch. For $30, brunch and the show was included. A variety of cocktails are available at fantastic prices, including $2 mimosas. Seating was at 11 a.m. and you need to get there then because the show starts at 11:30 a.m. and there's not a break between it and the end of brunch. Another show happens at 1:30 p.m. so there's pressure to pack up and go. When I saw brunch, I thought it might steal the show, but overall the meal wasn't impressive. I filled up my plate and sent 50% of it away. Thankfully the mimosa deals and fun show made up for the lackluster meal. For the drag brunch, reservations can be dialed in or emailed to The Hub. They handle big groups well - we had a spot for 10+. Don't forget dollars for tipping the performers!

Burger Week! So I'm usually short, sweet, and straight to the point! The Big Cheese Burger was...pleasing to look at (see pic) but...THE BUN WAS WAY TOO BIG! I liked the quality of the burger it's self. The additions to the burger very tasty I love the fresh jalapeño! We also had the Impossible Burger. I liked it way better... It was vegan but it had the same toppings but once again...THE BUN WAS WAY TOO BIG! Can't say I would vote on it or order it again but it was a good attempt. Thanks to the Hub and our wonderful server RACHEL!! You are great!

Chicken and White Cheddar Grits
Julia P.

We come here for brunch only. It's always alive at that time on the weeks and it's fun to be in the courtyard outside! If you love mimosas, this is your place. It's $1 per mimosa all day! I also get their hot chicken and grits... and let me just say that I'm from the real south and they are the best grits I've ever had. They seem to do a lot of special events here, too! Maybe a great place to host a dinner with friends. I also think you can have your pup outside with you on the deck.

Crispy Chicken Sandwich
Brittany S.

Brunch was soooo good!! Will def be returning soon! Service was also quick and very helpful. We had questions and our server was very eager to assist. Excellent espresso martinis, cute cocktails and mimosa deals!

French Toast Casserole
Jim H.

Went for Sunday brunch. Ordered a bottle of Mimosas they give you a craft with orange juice in it and a full bottle of champagne. They were good. Then for my main dish I got the French Toast Casserole. The only thing I can say about this is that it was so good I wish it was bigger. If you like sweet brunch foods, marshmellow and nutella I highly recommend ordering it!

To drink we tried the Telegram and the Roller Monkey, which were both fresh and amazing, honestly. For entrees we had the flounder and the burger. The flounder was served over veggies with a labneh sauce. The burger was huge and fantastic and came with crispy fries. To end, we ordered the crepe which was AMAZING. Overall, we very much enjoyed the experience. Special shout out to Katie, best server ever!

I will say that the cocktail I had was the best of the day and definitely a good way to start my day. The cocktail I had was the Grape in Rio and it was made with the Copper & Kings Brandy and had coconut creme, pineapple juice, lime juice and a brandied cherry. It was also a very pretty cocktail. We went out on the patio to take a look around, it was breezy out there but I could see where it would be nice to sit out there and have a cocktail. We will stop in again as it looks like they offer some nice amenities on their patios in the warmer weather.

There are also picnic tables out front. You get a faint whiff of the grill/smoker upon entering. Kylie was our bartender and she was fabulous - knowledgeable, friendly, and answered all of our questions with patience. Wife ordered a mango margarita and doesn't like a lot of tequila, so Kylie went half and gave her a shot on the side in case she wanted to add more. It was wonderful. I had a couple of beers. We started with the fried mushrooms, which aren't what you would expect. It's two large portobellos cut into chunks, battered, fried, and served with sun-dried tomato mayo. They were great. I then ordered a duck taco, brisket taco, and a side of Grippo Fries with smoked mayo. I'd never tried duck but that taco was smack-a-lackin'. The brisket taco was also good, and the fries were fantastic - sweet and spicy, fresh cut, and crispy. Wife ordered a pork belly slider and truffle fries. She enjoyed the slider but didn't care for the fries - just not her thing. The portions here are large. A side of fries will feed three people. We took a hefty portion of them home, as well as some of the mushrooms. We could've sat there at the bar and spent 3 hours socializing and enjoying a smattering of cocktails - love the setting.

Our group all ordered different burgers, along with the fries and Brussels sprouts, and every single plate was a hit. They have super unique sauces to try as well, I am not a huge pickle fan but the dill pickle hot sauce was my personal favorite. I also recommend grabbing a brown butter toffee cookie on your way out. The restaurant has a fun, laid-back atmosphere with great music, colorful murals, a lively bar area, and Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives playing on the TVs, which was a nice touch. It's also located in a cute part of downtown Louisville that's worth exploring. The service matched the food. Everyone was welcoming, happy to answer our questions, and made sure we had everything we needed. This will definitely be on my list for a return visit the next time I'm in Louisville.
