With roughly 80 beers on tap, how could you go wrong?<br /> <br /> The Horseshoe Pub building was built by F. D. Brigham in 1832, and occupied the lot next to Town Hall, on Main Street in the charming little burg we call Hudson, MA. The building was moved before 1880 to its present location on South Street, to make way for the construction of Jeff's Block. It became part of the property of H. H. Mawhinney and Company, later Logan Shoe Company, and was the home of one of the foremen and his family. <br /> In 1980, the building was taken over by the Horseshoe Pub and Restaurant. The restaurant's name originated from the relationship with a partner who was in the Harness Horse Racing business. In 1984, the Pizzimento family bought out their partner, and the Horseshoe is presently run by Al Pizzimento and family. In September of 2004, renovations were completed to what the building is today. <br /> For more information, visit the Horseshoe website: <a href="http://www.horseshoepub.com/">http://www.horseshoepub.com/</a><br /> <br /> <strong>Time/Date</strong><br /> Saturday February 5th. 1pm - 5pm.<br /> Door prizes drawing at 3:00.<br /> <br /> <strong>Directions &amp; Parking</strong><br /> Directions from points North, South, East and West can be found on the Horseshoe website.<br /> Ample free parking available.<br /> <br /> <strong>Door Prizes</strong><br /> Bring your business card for a chance to win fabulous prizes.
