A classic case of never judge a book by its cover. The Hobnobbin Pub is an old, rustic looking building located just outside of the heart of Poughkeepsie, on Vassar Road. The inside of this establishment is very home style and warm and welcoming. We were quickly seated and treated to very fast and friendly service. The dining room is however extremely quiet. Some music would have broken the awkward silence. Obviously this is by no means a problem of any sort and the food would soon become music to my mouth!
We each ordered a burger and a small order of wings. We had the "Hotter" sauce and requested a side of the "Hottest" sauce. The wings are perfectly sized and even more perfectly cooked. The real star of the night was the homemade sauces. Our Hotter sauce was delicious. It was unlike any traditional wing sauce I've ever had, there were tons of peppers and other flavors perfectly combined in this sauce. The heat was good as well, the Hottest sauce left a burn on my tongue for moments after I had finished eating, just how we like it. My burger was also incredible. A large patty of meat, with bacon lettuce tomato on a fresh bun. Very thick and very juicy. It was pretty clear why both the wings and burgers, are award winning at Hobnobbin.
Hey if you guys are in the Poughkeepsie area, or even if you're not, Hobnobbin is worth the trip. The "Hottest" sauce was one of the best sauces I have ever tasted! I am giving Hobnobbin, the top score so far- an 8.7 out of 10.
