12.12.12 We began a journey together with the community of Hudson, Massachusetts. An idea to open a small flatbread shop evolved into something we could only dream about. Our story is about a community's hope to do something special and to bring attention back to the things that matter most- like sitting around a fire, with warm friends, cold beers and great flatbread! Although delicious wood fired flatbread pizza is the champion on our menu it's just the beginning -we are a family friendly restaurant offering unique spins on new American comfort food classics like burgers, chicken tenders, tacos and mac and cheese to name a few.

One meal came out incorrect vs what was ordered. The GOOD news is that our waitress immediately placed the correct order and comped the incorrect order. The bad news is that everyone was almost finished eating when the correct meal finally arrived. Overall, happy with this experience but had to knock off a star due to the meal glitch. We were over 10 people so not surprising there was one pretty big issue.

We always enjoy Markoh's for cocktails and dinner. The food never disappoints, and the atmosphere is cozy and comfortable. Depending on the size of the crowd, it can range from very quiet to boisterous.
