We need your help to stay paywall free

We know you value local news and entertainment that is free, open, and independent. Producing high-quality, paywall-free content isn't free. It takes time, effort, and resources to keep you informed and entertained. Unlike corporate media, we don’t have deep-pocketed investors or big advertisers funding our work—we rely on you, our readers and listeners, to keep Radio Free Hub City running. We're literally running on a shoe-string budget, but keep working hard to provide as much news and entertainment as we can.

If just 5% of local area residents became paid supporters at only $5 per month, we could meet our fundraising goals and continue expanding our news coverage depth while continuing to provide free access for everyone. So, if you'd like to help us in our continuing quest to improve our coverage, please consider becoming a paying supporter.

Baile Bagels & Brews: A New Gathering Place

On October 21, Baile Bagels & Brews celebrated its official opening with a ribbon-cutting ceremony attended by over 100 guests, including local officials and community members. This new cafe and bar is more than a dining venue; it is a family-run business rooted in the Keene family’s dedication to community and tradition. “Baile,” meaning “home” in Gaelic, captures the essence of this welcoming establishment.

Baile Bagels & Brews provides freshly made bagels using authentic New York-style dough for a true grab-and-go experience, alongside self-serve coffee stations designed for morning convenience. The venue transforms into a relaxed bar in the evening, offering a historic 100-year-old bar setting where patrons can enjoy meals, local beer from the in-house “Baile Cask & Kettle” brand, and catch a game with friends.

This new spot also marks a milestone for the historic Updegraff building, which has undergone a $7.5 million renovation by Blackthorn Capital Partners to create upscale residential units above the storefront, revitalizing this part of the Hagerstown Cultural Trail.
