What People Are Saying About Hub Bar

In Short – Originally a combination package store and cocktail lounge, this watering hole catered to society's high end--including judges, attorneys and even Mafia bosses. Today, the Hub's become a Tampa institution, attracting everyone from politicians by day to the hip blue-collar set by night. Never start a night here with plans to go elsewhere: If the stiffest drinks in town don't ground you, the jukebox stocked with CDs you thought no one else listened to will.

Great dive

by ddaniel11

Come on. This is the great dive bar. You have every walk of life there and the best drinks. You will have to call a cab after having mixed drinks at the Hub.

It's got it all

by eternity083009

My title says it perfectly. The Hub has that great dive bar feel and atmosphere. The drinks are the strongest anywhere, the jukebox is packed with the best mix of music, the bartenders are totally cool and now to top it all off there is a hot dog guy out front on thursday friday and saturday night with the best freaking hot dogs I have ever had. As if the place couldn't get better. Now it has it all!!! Love Love Love the HUB!!

  • Pros: Stiff drinks, great jukebox, cool bartenders, the hot dog guy out front!!
  • Cons: I always need a cab or DD. is that bad?

Trashy and Fabulous

by Babycat4383

I never understood the attraction to dive bars until I stepped into the Hub. It is the greatest dive bar--trashy and fabulous. It has the best and the worst jukebox in the world, depending on your mood. And it is a time warp--it doesn't matter if I go in at 7 p.m. or 1 a.m., I am probably going to be there until closing time. Definitely THE place to end up after a night out. It has great drinks, awesome bartenders (who can take care of themselves...), and the craziest mix of people I have ever seen. Bring sanitizer and your drinking hat--and either a dd or cab money, 'cause you'll probably need it.

  • Pros: Bartenders with an attitude, drinks that'll kick you in the teeth, and the lights are nice and low...
  • Cons: Avoid touching anything in the bathrooms...
