The Main Street cocktail destination opened in 2022

Announcement from Hush, Follow Hush on Facebook for their final events

Well, the time has come to say our goodbyes in the most positive way. When we opened Hush. in 2022 it was with a dream to bring something entirely different to our small town. Something that may have never existed if we did not take the leap. At that time my mom (and partner) was recently retired, and I had graduated college and was trying to figure it all out.

Since our inception we have put our heart and soul into 99 Main Street. Breathing life back into an old building, and seeing the reaction from all of you was beyond fulfilling. We were happy to provide a space for people ages 21 to 100 to enjoy! From baby showers, wedding showers, engagement parties, and even a wedding, we were so grateful to be a part of all of these special moments.

Since then things have changed, in the best way possible! I got married, and gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. My dad retired and was able to spend more time with my mom. And suddenly Hush began to no longer fit in the equation for us.

It was not an easy decision to make for either of us, but one that was necessary for our family. The late nights, weekend hours, and nonstop troubleshooting that comes with owning a business no longer has a place in our lives.

We would like to mention one person. Many employees have come and gone and this person who stood beside us no matter what crazy idea we had, changing life circumstances, random call-ins for extra help, jumping into any position we needed. That is Jhon Uruchima. We took a shot on him all those years ago, having no restaurant or bar experience and he blossomed into such a hard working asset to our team. We truly could not have done it without him.

With all this being said, we will still be OPEN until Friday, Dec. 26th. You still have 19 DAYS to come enjoy the space as you know it, and cash in those gift cards! We would love to see your smiling faces one last time before we begin the next chapter of our lives.
