Hubbard Inn

First time at Hubbard Inn at the airport. Van gogh art work is a very nice touch. Decent experience, okay good. A few observations - the bar area is very understaffed. The bartenders there tried their best to serve everyone well - but it was way too much for 2 people to manage. I had the blackened season salad - lettuce was a bit whithered, salmon was in my opinion, burnt - not blackened. Food quality was not so great. Location and set up is very convenient - liked the charging stations as well - super convenient.

Great ambiance with eye-catching Vangogh artwork. The place could get busy depending on gate traffic. The bartenders are super friendly—shoutout to Tracey for the awesome service! The food could use a bit more attention, but overall, it’s a solid spot to unwind before your flight at the B Gates in Midway Airport.

Midway airport food is such a dud and a poor excuse. Mediocre food , high prices. Omelet was cold, raw onions inside. They know you have few choices…. at least the bar tenders are upbeat

Terrible customer service very rude. Management bar tender was very unprofessional and rude. He actively tried running off customers. Confronting people constantly. I sat down to check an email and eat a snack I had in my laptop bag and he tried to harass me. I was about to order a beer and some food. Do not come here they don’t appreciate customers. The bar down the concourse served me a beer and let me eat my snack in peace with an upbeat nice attitude.

Hubbard Inn: A Disappointing Airport Experience I recently had the misfortune of dining at Hubbard Inn in the Chicago airport. Unfortunately, my experience was nothing short of awful. The chili, which I had been looking forward to, was absolutely disgusting. It was so bad that I could only manage one bite before throwing it away. To make matters worse, the customer service from the kitchen staff was incredibly rude. It was clear that they didn't care about their customers or the quality of their food. I would strongly advise anyone traveling through Chicago to avoid this place at all costs. There are countless other options in the airport that offer much better food and service.

Surrounded by dozens of drinkers at 10 in the morning. Stopped in to grab a bite to eat for breakfast on a layover, choosing to take a seat at the bar area. I was told the bar area is only for those who plan to drink booze, and I was not one of them, but I was allowed to stay since it wasn't that busy. Ended up ordering the berry pancakes with a glass of water, as they do not serve coffee here. Total only came to a little over $22. The pancakes were pretty tasty, came with butter syrup and blueberries. And while I did need to ask for them, they also come with your choice of bacon or sausage. Guess they updated the menu recently and the choice of meat use to be extra, but not any more. Service was pretty quick and friendly, made for a nice time to pass a layover that extended an extra hour.

Save your money. $20 for a scrambled egg, some fried tator tots, a piece of food service sausage and poorly toasted piece of toast is a joke. The gal at the grab-an-go counter was short with the customers and seemed annoyed to serve customers.

Writing a review because the customer service was amazing. The bartender was super sweet with us and very welcoming. Regarding food, the avocado toast was nothing special, quite pricey. The coffee could be much better.

I was at Midway Airport and decided to stop here for a quick drink and something to eat before I boarded my flight. It was New Year's Day. My server was Julie G and she did an amazing job! She was running the bar and serving. Running back-and-forth to the kitchen to serve all of the customers. She had a great personality and was definitely helpful in choosing something to drink. Another server showed up late to her shift. Her attitude was not as pleasant. The food was ok. Julie made a fabulous drink. You are at an airport and have to keep in mind it's a limited menu and overpriced.

Just another high priced bar in the airport. Menu looks like it has good options. Service was good and professional.

Solid for drink at the airport. Drinks and food prices are very expensive. Food is average at best. Nothing to write home about. Service is decent though. Probably the best part about this spot!

Jessica was our Bartender... you could tell that she has seen it ALL from irate delayed passengers to rushed guests trying to grab a quick bite before their flights - not considering the size of a kitchen and the multiple orders coming through at once. We had a delayed flight of about 2 hours, bummed and tired I arrived and Jessica was fun to watch and listen to. THANK GOD she had a sense of humor. I sat beside another guest who had ordered a glass of wine... it was $27.24 HOLY SHYTSNACKS yes, you read that right! we looked up the bottle on line and it was $8.99 retail - THE ENTIRE BOTTLE LMAO!! I wanted the wedge but they were out so I got the blackened Caesar Salad it was good... and I had it with blue cheese dressing instead of Caesar. I also had a cold Modelo beer it was reasonable at $15.00 (pfft this is relative as the person I was sitting next to had a 8oz. glass of Substance C's Cabernet Sauvignon for that previously mentioned expense). I didn't take a photo as I was hungry and was in a rush to join my family at the gate. In the end I could say that based on the other meager offerings of (less than) flavorful foods at the airport... I wasn't disappointed with this choice. I'd make my way here again. Respectfully Reviewed.

Great place to sit and people watch while enjoying a nice cold beer and good food. The Caesar salad was a very large portion. Felicia was kind and filled out water bottle.

It's Chicago Midway - high prices are to be expected I know this is an airport and prices are always typically higher but every place we went was either a long wait with high prices or just no way you're gonna pay $19.99 for a burger. Luckily we weren't super hungry and just grabbed loaded fries - still high at $13.99. To be honest not all that impressed. Besides the long wait not sure we actually got carmalized onions.

The worlds most expensive Bloody Mary. A nice respite in the terminal, but if you aren't sitting at the bar, you get a plastic cup. And for 21+ bucks, it should have been special. At least I could charge my phone.

This place is so sad. I get charging airport prices, but serving a $20 glass of wine in a plastic cup At the bar Is just awful and so lazy. The scary is busy texting and eating, and couldn't care less about the customers.

The avocado toast should have "avocado" in quotes. It's a piece of toast with a very, very thin smear of an avocado-based spread. Lame. And not cheap ($20).

The WORST customer service. Forgot about my order. NYLA was the young girl working and she was extremely rude. She told me she's refunding me and I will NOT be getting my food. I don't have times for little girl games while I'm on a business trip. If you see Nyla. Tell her she needs to grow the f up

Food wasn't worth the money. Service wasn't either. And the clientele was pretty low class. The guy next to me wouldn't stop yelling into his phone and had really bad B.O.

This was a quick stop as we only had 45 minutes before our next flight. We ordered the truffle burgers for a quick bite and they're were delicious. I really appreciated the quickness of the bartender/waitress because we were on a tight timeline.

Food: I ordered the cheeseburger (no tomatoes), and a Miller Lite. The burger came with fries (chips unavailable). The burger was pretty tasteless and the fries were cold. ($18 airport prices). The beer was cold but $10.30 for a 16oz can Service: this is why it got as high as a 3. The ladies there were attentive, friendly, and accommodating. Ambiance: it's near gates 7 and 10. Nice but bland Overall: C

Wow- such poor service and customer service. Roslyn the manager was more worried about laughing and joking while playing on her phone behind the food window while customers were waiting for their food. Then when given our order, (which was wrong) they said it would be another 5 min(after already waiting 10min) to get the correct order. Before taking out order we asked to confirm we had the right order and Jasmine told us it was correct, but never decided to check. We didn't have enough time before our flight was boarding to wait any longer, so we asked for a refund for the wrong food. Then there was nothing but sighing and eye rolling when Roslyn actually had to refund our money. At that point she offered zero solutions or apologies and actually decided to call my girlfriend appropriate names. I will never be back and I urge everyone else not to bother with this place.

Quick update: sliders are "only" $17 now but don't include wedges anymore apparently, which I was okay with since I already had fries earlier in the day but didn't want to mislead people with my prior review. Still pretty tasty sliders!

Rude, my ordered was missing condiments and when I asked server told me " why are you being rude to me I didn't make the food !" I was not rude but simply pointing out the main condiment of my dish is missing. This is will be the last time I go to this establishment.

On my way to my destination I stopped at the Chicago International Airport and this place took care of my basic needs. It fed me a good SEC sandwich. It gave me a tasty and strong red sangria so I am completely satisfied. Good job to this place.

"Avocado toast: fried egg, smashed avocado, shaved radish, micro-herbs, red pepper flakes on wheat toast, served with tater tots." ^what I thought I paid almost $20 for Reality: the thinnest layer of avocado that didn't fully cover the bread, uneven huge chunks of radishes, and arugula that had seen better days. Never doing this again!

Avoid! Avoid! Avoid! I had a chicken Caesar here and halfway through I discovered a staple in my food. They acted like it happens all the time and didn't even refund me! Never again!

Terribly over priced, low quality, bland food. Zero ambiance (its at Midway airport, after all). Service was fair, the folks seemed nice enough. Save your money - pack a lunch if possible or try someplace else.

Before I even got a chance to order I was told that it would take at least 30 minutes before anything I put in would be available with the exception of fries or chili. My chili and fries dinner was about 17 bucks with a drink, it wasn't bad, but how badly can you mess up fries and chili? I figured if I'm going to wait I might as well have a drink, but the line for that was pretty deep and the bartenders were about half as enthusiastic as their counter service counterparts. Also, any bar that doesn't know that the drink is an 'Old Fashioned' and not an 'Old Fashion' is kind of sus.

Service is good, prices are expected, lack of tea, only pepsi cola products, and lack of malt vinegar when serving fish and chips is unacceptable.

A nifty little spot to grab a drink and hang while you wait for your flight. Jenny mixes a great drink and is quite the conversationalist. In addition, they also have a great view and a modest menu. Know that the food is pretty good, too. Obviously, it's pricy, but you expect that. Very surprising experience when you consider how busy an airport bar and grille can be. We never felt rushed or ignored. The place was clean and the food above average. 12/20.

Hubbard Inn always hits the spot when you're on a rush and need something on the go bed for your flight. This time I had the avocado toast. It was pretty good but very bland. But it def hit the spot and was nice and light. I Also had tater tot's on the side. Staff is always friendly when I go and food doesn't take too long

I ordered a gin and tonic. I was charged $21. When I asked the bartender why, he said it was because it was a double, and their cocktails are always doubles. It was also listed as "premium", which I did not order. I then ordered a Chicken Caesar salad but asked them to hold the chicken because I'm a vegetarian and the only other vegetarian dishes were brussel sprouts and french fries. I was charged $19. I understand airport prices are inflated, but this was ridiculous. I won't be going back.

Too expensive for what you get. The honey jalapeño chicken sandwich was good, but not $15 plus tax kind of good. The homemade chips that came with it were soggy and not crispy at all. Very disappointing. It's made to order so expect to wait 15-20 minutes. Friendly service. To-go only. They have an open seating area that you can use, if you want. Filled with nice art.

These guys have raised price gouging to an art. When drinks are cheaper on the plane than on the ground something has gone WRONG.

19 dollars for a frozen burger thrown on a grill and if you ask for a side of bbq sauce it's an extra 2 dollars. What in the world? This is highway robbery. If you're coming here starve yourself or wait until your destination.

On Oct 3rd around 12:54 pm . I sat at the bar top . I wanted to order some food and a beer . The bartender Vanessa asked me once I sat down "if I would want a to go box , because if I wanted a to go box for my food that I could only order at the to go counter". I asked her "if I order food here , a beer and eat . Then have some food left over , I can't ask for a to go box to take the rest of my food?" Vanessa told me "no I couldn't." I was appalled. I mean I was at an airport. Everyone is trying to relax before their flight and sometimes have to rush out . I told her I would eat there. My food came out maybe within 5-10 min . I ordered the fish and chips for $22. My fries were cold & absolutely plain , my fish was hot but half way eating the fish. I realized the batter on the inside was not cooked all the way. I was annoyed. Then I noticed another gentleman at the same bay top to my right was eating out of a to go box with a beer . . I found this waitress to have no smile , was unfriendly from the start and my food was sloppy . It is an opportunity to be a bartender , let alone at a fast serving location like an airport where people most of the time there can afford to tip . I don't think she cared to be a good bartender . She seemed very unhappy . I found it ridiculous to tell me I wouldn't be alllowed to ask for a box . I don't know if she was trying to stop me from dining there but I found it ridiculous. All this I still tipped . Now I wished I didn't . Horrible service . This place is best for only a beer .

I see why Midway Airport food ranks among the worst in the world. I had a grilled chicken club sandwich with fries for $18+. The price is not really a surprise, but the quality of the food was terrible. The fries were undercooked and limp. Limp is never good. The chicken was hot and flavorless. I asked for light mayo and was told it comes on the side. Nope. The bacon was soft and rubbery. The bread was very lightly toasted which did the sandwich no favors. I can get a better grilled chicken club at a gad station with a panini grill. If you just want to have a beer or two on a long layover, this place is fine. They have plugs for your electronic devices. If you want food, get it elsewhere although your selections probably won't be much better. Good luck!

I got off my plane in the mood for ice cream. Sad to find there are no ice cream spots open at 9 p.m. on a Thursday in the B concourse (really, Midway???), I sought the next best thing: a cocktail. This is how I found my way to Hubbard Inn in Midway. I admit I was taken in by the fun decor of paintings and beautifully scripted cocktail menu on the wall in this bar in the middle of the walkway. Maybe I should have read the Yelp reviews before sitting down -- obviously -- but I still found some good things here. First, I ordered an Old Fashion. No, not an "Old Fashioned." (As someone from the city that has the "Old Fashioned" as its official cocktail, please get the name correct.) But this cocktail wasn't too bad. It's made with Elijah Craig, and the bartender did not skimp on the spirit. What did give me pause, though, was the price tag. $17!!!! I know we're in an airport, but geez! I've gotten Old Fashioneds -- Old Fashion-"eds" -- at high-end establishments that didn't cost this much. The cocktail that was served came in a plastic cup. And so I had something to soak up the bourbon, I got some thick cut truffle fries. I will say -- this was a large bowl of fries. If you're looking for something to share or even, dare I say, indulge in yourself, this definitely works. One other point of contention, though, is the fact that I ordered at 9:30 p.m. and was asked to leave at 9:45 p.m. so that the servers could mop, even though they did not officially close until 10 p.m. I was able to take my drink with me to my gate -- and for $17 I definitely wasn't leaving it behind half full. The server was polite about asking me to move along, though I wish she would have asked me to perhaps relocate to another portion of the bar that still had several seated guests. I appreciate that Midway is improving its food options. I fly Southwest, which means I'll be in this airport often. And with some improvements, Hubbard Inn could be a place to seek out while waiting for flights.

The reviews really underrate this place, especially for an airport restaurant. Yes, it's outrageously expensive. But something has to pay for the space. Speaking of the space, it's light and airy and open. The food is quite good. My turkey club was nicely stuffed with crispy bacon and the bread was grilled. The fennel slaw was an interesting side dish. The meal was relaxed, and the server friendly. And yes, it did cost over $40 for a sandwich and a cocktail.

Pricey, slow, mediocre...That was my experience. The only positive thing was the great service provided by Joshua.

If you're stuck at the airport and have no where else to go than try your luck here! They are out of most of the wine and more than half the beers on tap. So chances are whatever you want they will be out of. Repeat customers and good service, nah they will get several new customers on a daily basis and do not care if you ever come back. Also, when you order food and wait a long time for it to come don't be surprised if it comes missing something because they are out of it and didn't bother to tell you when you ordered it. With no time left to order and wait for something else I guess I'll eat my "singular" fish filet and chips for $21.99 with ketchup as they are out of fish now and tarter sauce.

Just had a quick question and the female bartender. Dark hair was nasty. She purposely went to 2 other people who sat after me. Management... the lace was busy but a little kindness goes along way. Don't recommend

Great place, defamed by TikTok clout chasers and liars, don't trust them they were disproven

If I could give a negative star I would. The food is disgusting. That simple. An outrageously priced bacon burger and fries were ordered and we were told to pick up in 25 minutes. In 20 minutes we came back, the gal joked that she was ready to eat it herself if Ed didn't dhow up soon! The fries were ice cold and not salted. The burger was cold and as big as a slider. Not really edible. I have no issue overpaying for good at the airport but I believe they should deliver something close to a quality product. You should be ashamed of yourselves. Trust me. Get a donut and a coffee and eat when you arrive at your destination

Loud, club-like atmosphere with sub par food and service. With so many more options in the city, no need to stop here.

They only had a few items available , and they were awful. Dry chicken tenders. Overcooked cheeseburger. The cook didn't include the fixings. Oh and the prices for this luxury - high even for an airport. Especially the cheap wine. Ridiculous. Go elsewhere.

Had a layover in MDW and wasn't able to grab lunch in CMH due to the limited options/poor service. So I knew I wanted lunch as soon as I got off the plane. I spotted Hubbard Inn and it looked pleasing. The food smelled great and (as a solo traveler) I appreciated that it was all countertop seating. I could tell there were many other solo business travelers. I took a seat at the countertop (not the bar area) which had just been wiped down. A server quickly came over and handed me a menu. I found the "healthy" options to be limited. Pretty much just a kale salad was the only option. I didn't have much else to choose from. The menu isn't extensive and the prices are too high in my opinion. The salad was really not that great. I ate all the chicken first and then picked around at the kale before finally putting it aside. I'd say I ate about half of it. It is a really large portion, but not that good. And for $20, I could have gotten an even better salad at a Panera for less than half the price. Also, at one point, I was sitting there waiting for my meal and an associate walked by and said "Is there ever gonna be a manager here who cares what the f*$% they're doing?" The guy next to me both looked at each other and laughed. Wow! Not the most dedicated staff here....

Had breakfast here and was pretty well pleased. Ate at the bar and the waitress/bartender was fairly good. Liked the style of the place and the layout between gates. It really worked for me. The breakfast was breathtakingly expensive but most all airport food is a monopoly that is boned in security, but as steep prices went - the standard Hubbard Breakfast wasn't that bad. Food was quite well cooked. Bacon was awesome. When isn't it? The eggs well cooked. Tasted steak fries repurposed for breakfast. Only downer was the toast. I didn't really need to eat that anyway. If you are captive in an airport and didn't have breakfast earlier - this will work for you.

Definite one and done... The boy got the sliders + fries and I'm keto, so had the insides + wine. It's conveniently located near most gates and the server was a sweetheart but I wasn't too thrilled here. The meat patty was unfortunately dry and the alcohol prices weren't on the menu, so when the bill came my wine was $25 for a glass [I know rookie mistake, BUT STILL]...

Staff is pleasant, and they do husks here in my experience. It does take some time to get your food, so I would definitely make sure you have at least 45 min to hour. The menu in my opinion is a tad over priced, but it's the airport so it's naturally expected rather than eating at the actual restaurant in Chicago. Good food, and right in the center of the walkway so very convenient stop to enjoy a drink and maybe a small nibble

So overpriced, horrible beer pours, not great food, mediocre service. And despite the cons, it's so hard to even find a seat. Only pros were the classic pieces of artwork and easy conversation with neighbors at the bar, but the latter is pretty easy to find. And you don't need to buy anything to enjoy the art. If you just want a beer, almost anywhere else at Midway is preferable.

Horrible - don't eat here. First we wanted the burgers but at noon they were out. I had the Turkey sandwich. It tasted strange so I scrapped back the coke slaw to see the meat. I think it was Turkey but was was the brown on the white meat? Was it MW to death? What a waste of $16.95

They got me with the "brioche bun". I thought that meant the egg and cheese would be thoughtfully and carefully crafted. Right after paying for it i turned to sit and put my luggage down when the cashier handed me the sandwich in a bag. It was clearly pre-made. When I opened the foil paper wrapping it was as if the sandwich put out a cigarette and said with a raspy, smokey voice: "Okay, let's get this over with." It wasn't hot ... or even warm. The "brioche bun" was just a glorified hamburger bun. It was a sad sandwich. And it made me a sad customer.

After ordering online and waiting 20 minutes, learned they were "out" of the sandwich. Waited almost another half and hour while they were "making it next" watching others get theirs first

0 star if I could. Airport should shut this place down. Received my food with a full bite mark on my burger. 2 opened packs of salt on the fries. Definitely "cooks" (microwaving returned food) fault. I had to ASK for a refund. Nothing was offered. Beware.

I had lunch here a few weeks ago waiting for a flight home. The sandwich was good, but the staff was not a friendly lot. It's in the middle of the airport, so located nicely in the Gate B area. Overall not a bad place to eat at an airport.
