We are located in the lower level of the Historic Opera House on 2nd Street in downtown Hudson. 2nd street is the main drag downtown. There is a front door under a black awning on Main Street and there is also a back door under the green Opera House awning in the alley east of 2nd St that connects Walnut St and Locust St with additional parking in that same alley. Either way brings you into the building and you can head down the stairs from there. We are not handicap accessible. We are in the basement of a historical building.

There are a lot of parking options in downtown Hudson. Some are free if you feel like walking a block or two and some are metered. The Passport Parking App is really slick and parking is only 50 cents per hour. If it’s after 8 pm parking is not monitored and on Sundays parking is FREE!

We strive to be the place you can go to every day not just on special occasions. Come as you are. We have a casual, comfortable atmosphere where you’ll fit in no matter what you’re wearing (shirt and shoes required).

Nope, we don't even have a window so please tell us about the weather when you come in (unless it’s nice out then we don’t want to know). We stay warm down here in the winter and cool down here in the summer.

We do have a few options for kids available, just ask your server!

We run breakfast items as specials on Saturdays and Sundays till 2pm. Our breakfast burger and Croque Madame are great brunch items that are always on our lunch menu. Lunch menu is available 11am-3pm. We serve our full menu all day as well.

Nope, we prefer to be a little more old-fashioned and encourage our guests to interact with us and each other while dining here and we didn’t want to cover up any of the beautiful historic space we occupy.

To keep things simple our pricing already reflects the cash discount. When using any other method of payment 3.95% will be added onto your check. This is simply the cost of running your card to process payment. Credit or debit card- it costs us the same. Ridiculous but true. So please, pay in cash. Please tip in cash as well . We cannot access the fee it costs to process the additional tip amount so we pay that percentage out of our pocket. Some establishments take that additional amount out of the tip you leave for your server but we KNOW that is not your intention when tipping your server so at our restaurant they keep 100% of your tip.
