This place is a Tampa icon its a must go to One of the best dive bars in the city

Okay, so forget the hub. Robinson’s Way Gourmet is 6 star. 7star. This corner cook setup is fantastic. Me and my bro and his friend had some food one night, not even that hungry, was so good we came back and ordered seconds. This man has a secret. Get the cheesesteak hoagie, then get it again.

A must visit Tampa Institution. The best people I know in town frequent this place. Its a Lil bit of dive bar, cash only kinda place but that has a certain appeal to true connoisseurs of the night life. Great place if like real bars & drinking with people.

Excellent Service ordered a bottle I requested got it today. Thanks

Cash only bar serving up strong drinks in a back-alley decor. Not really any places like this in Tampa anymore. If youre sick of the fancy places, go here.

Cmon its the Hub! Nothing less than 5 glorious stars.

What can I say, this place is amazing. The drinks are strong and priced well. This is the place you end your night - cause if you start here, youll be done before you even get started lol

Such an old school ambient looking place to meet great real people!! If you low key humble, try it out ;)ps. They still got a pinball machine 💯

The Hub Bar is definitely a dive bar. I had a great time there! Met some nice people. The bartenders were super cool, and they poured some strong drinks. Theres a liquor store inside the bar. That was different, but unique. I suggest you stop by and check it out for yourself.

Great dive bar. Old school coin-operated juke box. Strongest drinks in town. Package shop attached.

Dive Bar .. great price per drink, cold beer and easy bartenders. If you know Tampa you know the Hub!! Bring cash, as no credit cards accepted, but they do have an ATM.. ENJOY!

Cheap drinks great selection good staff and fun music.. Rock and Soul nights are back and awesome

Best dive bar ever strong drinks awesome bartenders always a good time they never disappoint!

Great Tampa dive. 10/10 will drink cheap here again

Great dark smoky bar, interesting patrons and stiff drinks. Would be 5* but remember it is cash only. Galaga, pinball, Ms. PacMan...

Sublime ambiance combined with creative cocktail making. Whats not to like. When quality matters, go to the Hub

That toilet stall is a genuine gutter punk dive bar experience. Iconic ambiance, great music, great drink prices! 10/10 will be back with friends!

First time at this bar. Had a Southern Comfort Manhattan, shaken, one dash bitters, and, a little cherry juice, up, while killing some time waiting for the bus after work. I cant remember the bartenders name, but, he was pretty cool.Once I (especially the bartender...LOL) realized no CCs and not enough on card to withdraw, I was politely directed to the nearest CVS so that I could purchase something in order to get cashback to come back and pay for my tasty, sweet libation. Bummed and not sure if bartender believed I was coming back, I left. Sad and thirsty....I walked the two blocks, bought a $1.99 bag of peanut-butter filled pretzel nuggets, received $10 cashback, then walked back, hoping, my drink was as I left it. Walked in, BOOM, as I left it! However, as I got closer, the glass was actually half-empty. The bartender came up to me and said he strained the ice so my drink wouldnt be watered down. I thought that was pretty damned awesome he did that! He definitely deserves an award or somethin! I know no bartender that would, on their own, even think or do that. WOW! I definitely will be returning while waiting for the bus. Maybe, even miss a bus to have one more!The bar is quaint and divey. They serve no draft and the bar has plenty of space to sit and chill amongst the many and vast bottles of any liquor you have a taste for. I am quite sure its a great happy-hour place and possibly an eventful place on a Fri/Sat night. Just remember, CASH ONLY...😁

Rated 5 on the experience... heavy handed pours, downtown corner, slightly sketchy, but jukebox, Galaga, Donkey Kong (I was/am a DK master...) Had a blast!

One of the oldest bars in Tampa. I think it is safe to say that this place can be classified as a dive bar. While they dont have a happy hour, they do have good prices and pour stiff drinks (double pours). This place is also attached to a packy store in case you need to grab a bottle of liquor to go.

Classic hole in then wall vibe, friendly regulars and random ppl walking in.

What a lovely craphole. Cash only, smoking indoors (in 2019!), pinball, great tunes, stiff drinks... amazing dive bar in the middle of the “dive bar” of the United States, Tampa Florida.... there may not be much punk rock left in the world, but this place has it bottled. Get here before it’s gentrified!

Laid back local dive bar with great prices and the bartenders and management are always a pleasure.

Decent dive bar. Drinks are good.

Great place, And they only take cashFantastic

Bartenders are great as long as you arent a jersey, which is how it should be. Love it. Also they have a liquor store

Im not a big drinker, but this bar has a lot of history and very good people working in it. So 5 stars for that.

Nice drinks, amazing staff, great ambience.

Strongest drinks, biggest pours! Always! Clientele isnt always the best though, atmosphere is dark and dingy...

A very nice cuchitril to get drunk and have a good, nonchalant, uncompromising moment.

The Hub is not for everyone. It is probably the most popular dive bar in Tampa and its popular because the drinks are strong and the crowd is full of characters. Go there to end the night, not start it, and make sure to bring cash. If you have the right attitude (or if youre just naturally a degenerate) you will absolutely have a great time.

This bar is very cool and old timey. There is quite a bit of space in between all the tables. The atmosphere is awesome and the drinks are good! However, there is a bar tender named Jamie that is quite rude, and I hope she is never there when I come again. Because she made the whole experience sour.

I enjoy this bar because of Its funky style and dim lighting. Theres an old fashioned juke box, pinball, and other various games. Staff is pretty friendly and they enforce masks. The only cons are that it is cash only and no food is served.

The drinks are cheap, its an institution but just not my thing. Its been a long time since Ive been to a bar filled with cigarette smoke.

Must go Tampa Dive definitely worth the money !!! Dont forget to bring cash!!!

My favorite bar ever. Jukebox is not online! Cash only! Dont bother ordering a double. Everything is a double. My go-to Valentines Day spot.

Be mindful of where you are going. The place is great for a cheap drink, dive bar. Also has a liquor store connected to the bar.

Cash only just as any dive bar should be, oh and no hipster beers only craft so there’s another upside. Also this is THE dive bar of Tamp, like you can find a homeless guy sitting next to an investment banker type of dive. There are scratched tables and graffiti in places, the bathrooms look like a war zone, but it’s cheap and the booze flows, 5 stars as a dive.

If you want the hardest drinks in Tampa Bay. This is where you come. Very nostalgic look and feel, no beer on tap. But they do sell it. Cash only.

Super low key, but very friendly. Ice cold beer, great people watching. Cheers!

Pretty dirty bar. Check out the mens room

Probably my favorite bar in Tampa.

Very cool, intimate space for some of the best shows in Tampa. Huge selection of liquor, with the strongest of pours. From dance parties to foosball, good times are always had at The Hub.

This is a nice hole in the wall, and from what I understand, one of the older established bars in Tampa. No beers on draught and a slightly better than basic beer and liquor selection. What really sets this place off is the staff and owners. They had great energy, were full of knowledge about Tampas nightlife, and even wrote down recommendations of other bars to visit. That says a lot to me, having an attitude of abundance means youre running things right and tend to value your customers experience above all else. Check this place out. The other people drinking there were fun as well.

Very nostalgic atmosphere. Friendly and the ambience takes u back like the Good ole days. Prices are very reasonable. Want put a hurting on ur pocket like other nearby places

Ordered Tito’s and Pineapple. Got pineapple syrup that wouldn’t mix with the drink. I also know the difference between cheap vodka and Tito’s. Do better. Sell to people what they ask for.

This is a cash only bar. The interior is dark and the drinks are strong.

Absolutely Amazing Dive-Bar. Good Vibes and Whatnot.

Great Tampa spot. This bar has been there since 1946. If you’re visiting Tampa or you’re a local - you have to experience The Hub. Bar is cash only and so is the jukebox. My favorite bars for an early afternoon drink in Tampa.

Chill price s was good friendly environment

Best dive in Tampa, perhaps the entire country

This is the place to go if you want strong drinks at a good price. It has more of a hometown feel and is one of the cheapest bars in downtown Tampa. Theres a pinball and foosball table, and lots of people. But, be prepared. Its smoky!

Drinks are very very slightly overpriced, I’m talking $38 for two drinks and two shots, which would run about $20 maximum in our native Jax area, but the atmosphere is good and the bartenders as well as patrons make this a welcoming environment. It is very clean! We chose this little spot over the much more heavily populated bars and pubs found on 7th street. This place has the typical downtown parking set up where you won’t find a (free) parking lot but you will find on street parking that isn’t too far from the bar itself.

Opens till 3am! The store employee Marty is very polite and a thespian!

Awesome bar, friendly people love it

Wow the drinks are crazy strong best in town cheap too

Favorite local bar in downtown. Great service and friendly environment. Jaime is awesome !!!

Awesome place, very 🚲 friendly.

Merry XmAS to & haPPy new year to all who enters to my all~time favorite bar EvEr.¡!!¡.

This bar has the worst service and extremely rude employees with an attitude...will never waste my time there.😡👎👎👎

This is an interesting mix of dive bar in a high rent district. Stopped in with the wife and we each got a whiskey and coke. Tab was $15. The drinks were very strong, there werent many other guests but there was still quite a bit of smoke in the bar. I would go back again. Just kind of weird being priced as if its near the theater but still a smokey dive bar.

Man, a bar that opens at 10am?! awesome!! great vibe, just divey enough and there’s even a speakeasy package store inside. cheap, strong drinks and brit kept me entertained for a few hours with rad conversation. good jukebox selection, too!! i fed it a few bucks and had over an hours worth of songs. would definitely recommend!!!NOTE: bar is cash only (which i can forgive since it’s a divey little bar) but the package store inside accepts cards.

Nice place to get drunk

You go here if you want to get hammered!

You can’t beat the drink prices PERIOD! Seriously one of the coolest bars and experiences you will ever find in Tampa. I always make sure to bring friends here that are visiting from out of town and The Hub Bar never lets me down ALWAYS A GREAT TIME! They have a package store too so you can grab some drinks for the house on the way out.

Terrible bar nasty to expected terrible service rude bartenders also making political cheep shots at customers

Dark pub ! Nice girls !

Quintessential dive bar. The vintage juke box has a GREAT selection. We ordered a Jim & Coke and a tequila soda and they were STRONG and cheap. Like the equivalent of 3 drinks in 1 glass strong. Low key option to pop in for a drink before going to the Tampa Theater.

Great place. Great prices on drinks. $ 5 Dollar Long Islands games decent size place. Owner is Very cool. I was waiting at greyhound and found this place. Best thing I ever did. Ill be stopping in again on the way back. Thanks A lot.

The Hub is a great old sod. Been around since the late 40s. Probably the same floor and decor, 😆. Great neighborhood place to sit, laugh and grab a cold one. Plus, I always use their carry-out store next door.

Great service here! The food is great too! I love The Hub!

Great Vibe, Well priced drinks!

Great small local bar with excellent bartenders and a really laid back, enjoyable atmosphere. One of the last places with an old school jukebox. Super friendly. One of those places you just gotta visit to experience for yourself. 10/10 recommend. Dance parties and karaoke on certain nights. Dont take my word for it, just go here. 👍🏻🤙🏻🍻

Been around a long time, Ive neva been when its very crowded (although I know it gets that way!) Good bartender when I wind up there in daylight. Almost always find a street park. An eclectic crowd... I happen ta like these kinds of places.

Very rude staff they dont like people of color

Only fn place to buy beer in town

The most disgusting little dive youll ever set foot in. Heavy police presence watching people leave the bar that was stacked with sweaty alcoholics.No thanks.

Strong drinks for cheap....believe the hype lol

Fantastic music

I came to this bar in my 20s and love it! I would love to come back more often but the smoke is just TOO MUCH to handle. Times have changed and I think there would be a lot more people hanging out there if it were non-smoking. Please consider this!!!!

My friend bought me here awhile back, it was nice, good service

Super chill place. Great drinks

Love this place, located in the heart of downtown, its my go-to dive bar. I love all the staff that works here. Me and my friends go here all the time. Definitely recommend this place if high end bars arent your thing.

CASH ONLYdont expect a up scale bar. This is for those who want something more...logical. Great drinks for low price....as per cash only

Perfect place

Love

Very friendly cant wait to have the time to go back

Always open like a good neighborhood drug dealer.

Good spot to chill 😊

The Hub is a landmark of Tampa. Opened since 1949 and still popular with the locals. It looks rundown...because it is. However, it has character and is visited by characters. Cheap booze, good people and sometimes live music.No frills, no flashy lights just a good bar.

Great place

Just a heads up, this place is cash only. Drinks are mildly priced, but the pours are strong. You can smoke in this bar. There is also a liquor store on the side, nice for when you want to bring the party home.

Was at their liquor store buying a bottle of tequila and a pack of cigarettes and accidentally left my wallet behind. I called and they were less than helpful- I showed up and they had “just found my wallet” fair enough. I should’ve checked my wallet right then and there but I was so relieved to have found it, I left. When I get to my destination to pay, I noticed all of my cash had been taken from my wallet. When I called about my cash missing, the worker Kevin who answered the phone was rude and refused to give me the name of a manager.

My friends and I use to enjoy the Hub waaaaaay back. They moved and left all the flavor that was the Hub at the old address. This is just a sh#t shack now.

A historic downtown bar that has a great atmosphere. The drinks are cheap and when the bar is closing, there is a liquor store inside that you can purchase from. Most nights theres somthing going on to make it fun but overall its a great dive bar.

I love the retro vibe of this place! When you walk in you can feel the years of entertaining that this bar has seen. The drinks were strong and the crowd was a mixed bag, but all friendly. Check it out!

This place is amazing. Live music was great. Great drink prices and a package store. My downtown go to bar

Cash only, and they took down the Christmas lights which takes away some of the ambiance. Be careful as many homeless people crowd around outside and inside and can pester you for money

If you want a strong drink and dont mind smoke, this place is amazing. Bring cash but the ATM isnt as costly as most places. Great dive.

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph! If you want a great dive bar experience in Downtown Tampa, this is your place. Amongst people from the Tampa area this place has been famous for decades. Ask for a Double Pour at your own peril... the regular pours here can knock you on your butt even if you had a few beforehand. This place rocks, and before you think that the guy at the other table looks weird? Play it easy, cause he might be a Judge letting loose, cause that is how it happens at The Hub... be easy cause there are usually no questions asked.
