This month we are highlighting The Hub, located in Scotch Creek. The owners and staff of this local eatery work hard to give their customers a family friendly dining experience that is welcoming, relaxing and delicious! Whether eating in or taking out, The Hub is ready to serve you 7 days a week. Monday to Friday they are open from 3 p.m. – 7 p.m., and from 12 p.m. – 7 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.

The Hub’s menu has something for everyone. Though many items fall into the “pub style” category, a large number of them are gluten free dishes and all of them are prepared with a healthy lifestyle in mind. The menu is extra special because many of the ingredients are locally sourced. Suppliers for bread, sausage, vegetables (in season) and many beers and wines, are located within a 100 Km radius. Not only does this guarantee freshness, it also showcases many of the excellent products found
