About Hub Burritos, Freak Shake & Paletta ( Ice Cream & Milkshakes)

Hub Burritos, Freak Shake & Paletta ( Ice Cream & Milkshakes) is one of those unforgettable spots you stumble upon at 1405 Upper Ottawa St #4 in Hamilton, ON, where the moment you walk in you feel the lively pulse of a Mexican restaurant that doesn’t take itself too seriously. When I first heard about this place, I was curious how they could mix bold Mexican flavors with insanely fun milkshakes and desserts, and honestly, they deliver on both fronts in such a natural way. Whether you’re dropping by for a quick bite between errands or settling in for a relaxed dine‑in experience with friends, the vibe here is casual, upbeat, and totally welcoming. The menu feels thoughtfully put together - you can choose healthier options if you’re craving something light, or opt for vibrant small plates that pack all the big tastes without the guilt. It’s kind of perfect for any mood you’re in, especially when you want something fresh, flavorful, and not overly heavy.

What really sets Hub Burritos, Freak Shake & Paletta ( Ice Cream & Milkshakes) apart is how they handle the sweet stuff. Their freak shakes and palettas are seriously next‑level, ideal if you’ve got a craving that goes beyond a typical dessert. These treats are creative, colorful, and Instagram‑worthy without feeling gimmicky, and they balance surprisingly well with the savory side of the menu. I’ve hung out here with folks who came just for the shakes, and others who showed up determined to try every burrito on the menu - and both groups left happy. The service options here make it super adaptable too: you can grab takeout on a busy day, get delivery when you just want to chill at home, or enjoy the full onsite service when you’ve got the time to savor every bite and sip. It’s really that kind of place - casual enough for a spontaneous lunch, fun enough for a weekend treat, and consistently tasty no matter how you choose to enjoy it.

The new owners are doing a great job especially when you walk in and you're greeted and they remember your order even from a while ago. Clean atmosphere, timely service my only complaint is a little more veggie, spreading beans all the way or onions really makes that first bite. I bought one large Chipotle and one signature regular and grilled it at home to my liking and served it to my brother and father and they loved it!!! See you next time HOOTS

I was here yesterday (June 3) and got their tacos and a cotton candy freak shake. I have had gimmicky foods before and love candy and was expecting to at least enjoy the novelty of a loaded freak shake, I was not expecting the ingredients to be as high quality as they were, the presentation and accomodation or the attention to detail, you can tell they are doing what they love and making food others will love and I am so glad I stopped in! I will definitely be back, it was the perfect summer treat and I was extremely satisfied!! Thank you!!!

Went in late night after a power outage in my area was greeted with the utmost courtesy and given extensive help by the worker. She was amazing, super helpful, as well as kind and caring. You can tell the food is made with love and you will be treated with the utmost respect when you dine here. This place will stay open late if there’s customers in the store, they went above and beyond giving extra sides help and spending extra care on our food! The inside was so tidy and clean. You can tell they keep this place in tip top shape and the customer matters to them! You will NOT be disappointed, I promise. This is our new fav ice cream/ Mexican food place!! Thanks so much!

The boss here really nice to myself as a uber driver. He even gave me a free ice cream as we had a nice conversation with each other. Hey brother, if you read this message, I hope the best will come to your business as you are a kind person. Peace!
