10 Things to do in Hudson That You Shouldn't Miss
Hudson is a town in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, United States, with a total population of 19,063 as of the 2010 census. Before its incorporation as a town in 1866, Hudson was a neighborhood and unincorporated village of Marlborough, Massachusetts, and was known as Feltonville. From around 1850 until the last shoe factory burned down in 1968, Hudson was known as a "shoe town." At one point, the town had 17 shoe factories, many of them powered by the Assabet River, which runs through town. Because of the many factories in Hudson, immigrants were attracted to the town. Today most people are of either Portuguese or Irish descent, with a smaller percentage of people being of French, Italian, English, or Scots-Irish descent. While some manufacturing remains in Hudson, the town is now primarily residential. Hudson is served by the Hudson Public Schools district.

Gifted hubby a tank driving experience for this birthday and he was THRILLED! He drove a M-24 tank in their open field, then tested his agility via the obstacle course. A fun once in a lifetime experience! The museum also has an amazing collection of tanks, planes, trucks to explore including a M1A1 Abrams. Well worth a visit. We have also viewed a WWII re-enactment in October of 2019 and that was incredible. Highly recommend this gem of a museum!

I am placing Medusa Brewing on my short list of Overall Best Brewpubs; I really enjoyed being here and am glad I "stumbled" upon Medusa while traveling to Hudson. The commitment they have to brewing unique and delicious styles of beer is very much appreciated. I consider Medusa to be special in a craft beer market that is beginning to become over-saturated. Great atmosphere along with great service make being here worthwhile.

Ground Effect has great selections of beers, friendly owners/ servers, and an all-around comfortable atmosphere. They bring in food trucks at times so there is often food available right out front, but you can always bring your own.
