Friendlier

Dishing out a new green takeout option at the Hub Café

As a take-out only location, the Hub Café is proud to offer visitors a green alternative to traditional single-use takeout containers. A Canadian, female-owned company, Friendlier (external link)  is our source for high-quality, reusable containers made of sustainable packaging that are easy to use and re-use.
