12.12.12 We began a journey together with the community of Hudson, Massachusetts. An idea to open a small flatbread shop evolved into something we could only dream about. Our story is about a community's hope to do something special and to bring attention back to the things that matter most- like sitting around a fire, with warm friends, cold beers and great flatbread! Although delicious wood fired flatbread pizza is the champion on our menu it's just the beginning -we are a family friendly restaurant offering unique spins on new American comfort food classics like burgers, chicken tenders, tacos and mac and cheese to name a few.

    We were pleasantly surprised when we tried this restaurant, we had loved a couple of the previous restaurants housed in this now redone building, but not all.. Now it is more updated, lovely decor, energetic bar scene, and a mix of interesting creative and also classic menu offerings including the crispy cod was delicious as was the salmon plates, sides were excellent. The whipped feta/bread app was delicious as well. Manhattans delicious. Waiter excellent. We will be returning to try more.
