Harmon Hub Opening Day

I was downtown serving my civic responsibility at jury duty again today, so at luchtime I was able to make it over to the Harmon Hub which just opened this week. There was a blurb yesterday on exit133.com.

I kept it simple, having the salami sandwich. It was on a baby baquette with provolone and roasted red peppers. I also had a side salad with their cucumber dressing. To drink, I had a pint of Harmon’s Mild Thing ale, which is true to its name. The guy next to me had the fish & chips, which he said was a bit slimy. Pat Nagle, the owner, was there and commented that the fish they were using wasn’t working well and they eighty-sixed the dish.

I had never been to the St Helen’s Cafe, which previously occupied the space, so I can’t comment on what is different as far as decor, but it looked nice to me. It was partitioned just enough to create three or four separate spaces. The artwork and color scheme made the place warm and inviting.

Opening a restaurant is tough, so there is bound to be a lot of tweaking going on, even after their grand opening on Friday. Hopefully things will go well for them. I will definitely be back and would suggest checking it out.
