I was amazed how packed this restaurant was on an off-season Saturday night. Off the beaten path in the tiny town on Cheshire, the parking lot was full, the bar was hopping, and the diners clearly enjoying themselves. How great! We loved it too. The main feature is locally sourced fresh ingredients prepared in an unusual way. I loved the crispy soy/maple salmon on a bed of hash consisting of brussel sprouts, potatoes and celery root puree. My wife Statler chicken was crisp and juicy. But you can also get incredible looking sandwiches. My eyes locked onto the cod reuben. How unusual, yet easy to understand. Entrees stay in the mid 30s, so don't expect a cheap night if you add an appetizer, wine and dessert. (Btw, ask to tour the wine closet). However, farm fresh food is worth it to me. The room is good looking and comfortable. It is a little noisy with all the happy people, but not too bad at all. I will be back. And I will bring my picky friends visiting from New York. read more

Common Table is a Cheshire gem of a restaurant. Beautifully detailed in calm, cozy serene hues of charcoal with hints of verdant potted plants. Service is warm and highly attentive. We enjoyed for dinner: To Start- Warm baguette with herbed oil, along with Naan Tacos (yummy) For Entrées: Caribbean Style Statler chicken (could've used a hint of scotch bonnet & ginger, but it was good), and the Common Burger (delicious) with matchstick fries. We were too full to try dessert. No worries, there will definitely be a next time. Enjoy! **Oh, I hear they are expanding due to the high demand. Reservations are necessary** Thank you read more

Absolutely wonderful meal ! We came to celebrate Valentine's Day a day early and it was so worth it! Started with an amazing Walnut old fashioned. The salmon and linguini with clams were amazing along with the appetizer. In fact, there is not one bad thing we can say. Service was incredible and the meal was paced just right. Ambiance very welcoming and while it was packed it did not feel that way. Our best meal in a long time ! The new space is amazing as well. read more

The atmosphere walking through the door to the newly located establishment was so inviting. The bar area has a few high top tables as well and the dining areas plenty of tables along with their signature common table in the center. There were two other dining areas for special requests and private parties. All areas were tastefully decorated. We were seated at one of the high tops in the bar area which was very comfortable. Our meal choices consisted of the Autumn Salad mixed greens, roasted delicata squash & Brussels sprouts, cranberries, toasted pecans, goat cheese, maple-dijon vinaigrette which we paired with the Autumn and Apple Brie Common Crust made with shaved apples, creamy Brie, spinach, fresh sage and a maple glaze. Both dishes were plentiful, very tasty and nicely presented by very attentive wait staff. We finished off with the apple cider donut sundae to satisfy our sweet tooth. I will definitely be returning myself and will also be sending my house guests their way. Overall a wonderful dining experience. read more

My experience there was very disappointing. I had reserved a table for 4 asking for a QUIET table. Unfortunately my asking didn't help. It was so loud it made the dinner exhausting. My hamburger with jam was so-so. Honestly it lacked flavor. The water $7.00 for the bottle stunned all of us. I wish we had been informed about the price and would have simply requested tap water. The owner/ manager did delete the charge on the water after discussing it with the waitress..... Again.... Very disappointed. read more

Amazing quality food and service. Truly a delight in Berkshire County. I'm looking forward to going back!

We thought the previous location was loud until we ate here last night. Deafening! Could not hear our companions across the table of four and servers had to lean in to hear us. Cod Reuben was disappointing, and bottled water was $7 a bottle although we were not informed of this when asked if we wanted water. We won't go back read more

As u can see, my reservation confirmation is saying 4 ppl patio. I did get there, and I was told my reservation was for high top inside. The so-called manager was useless and rude and made no effort at helping sorting out the problem. read more

It took one hour to get drinks, and another hour and a half to get food that was subpar. From overly salty fries, bland food, and extremely small portion for one of the meals. Waitress didn't ask how the food was, and wouldn't make eye contact for the two and a half hours that we waited for food. There was no apology for the wait time and the manager was not concerned about the wait time or our satisfaction. read more

Will never go there again. People came and went while we waited. We were there for 3 hours. We were served our food after 2 1/2 hours. The food was not good. My cod Reuben was tasteless. Others fries were cold and greasy. Another food was cold. After all that time food was not good. The service was lousy; waitress did not make eye contact and did not tell us why we were waiting for so long. She did not ask how our food was. The only compensation was they cut the birthday cake we brought with us for free. Very very bad experience and manager did not care. Felt that is because place is busy. With experiences like this, will not be busy for long. Said 3 hours was typical for 9 people. The bill was 450 for 9 people. Not terrible unless food not good. Will make sure people know of this experience. read more

Well I'm being short.. the food is awsome.. service is excellent and the ambience is what you would expect in a small town in the Berkshires.. I highly recommend this restaurant. Please support this great gem... we are very lucky to have a place to go to ; you find these places in Boston......... read more

I've been here about 5 times now and every single time, the food, drinks and service have been amazing! It's always so clean and inviting which is huge in my book. And each time I've ordered a steak it's cooked to perfection! Which can be hard to come by around here. Will be back many more times! read more

Came midweek and we were so happy to find this place. Sat at the bar because we did not have a reservation- which was perfect. Vanessa was an amazing bartender/server, she gave us great tips on the new fall menu.!. The food was absolutely delicious as was the wine! We visit this area regularly and we will definitely be back! read more

The food was spectacular. It's very small and quaint. Tucked away and beautifully done inside. We had the charcuterie platter and it was a good size for two people. The salami was amazing! Then had scallop risotto and my husband had the filet cooked to perfection. The plates were very full and filling. We sat at the bar and loved it. It's very small inside but we loved the intimacy of it. Highly recommend. Will be going back for sure. A definite must visit if visiting the area. Wish I took a photo but food was so good it was gone before I could think of it. read more

We had a great dinner at Common Table to celebrate a birthday. Front of the house is so friendly, and the food was fantastic. Scallops and risotto, roasted chicken, and the pork chop all got 10/10 from our table. The place is small so reservations are recommended. We already can't wait to go back! read more

Great wine and drink selections to pair with a beautifully crafted menu. Staff was amazing! Looking forward to spending a lot of time here!

What a wonderful addition to Cheshire.! Inviting decor, excellent and prompt service and a perfect entree. I had the scallops--my friends the salmon-- and they were melt in your mouth tasty. Don't miss this restaurant- you won't be sorry! read more

Creative menu, well delivered, recommend the tacos, most amazingly pleasant staff, be prepared for a noisy environment. The restaurant and bar are quite small, not a quiet dinner. read more

Food was wonderful, staff was attentive, and ambience modern chic. We were there on a Tues eve and the place was packed, so be sure to make reservations. The only suggestion i'd make is to carpet the ceiling because it was difficult to hear your date over the noise. But we will definitely be coming again. read more

Had the scallops with risotto and pork chops with polenta and peach salad. All excellent!

Great experience at Common Table! Cocktails were great, food was great and the buildings renovations are cozy and inviting! I can't believe it was only their second day in business, service was already a well oiled machine. Great place, we will be back often!!! read more

Amazing service & incredible food! Don't even think about skipping over the buffalo garlic parm wings and the s'mores bread pudding for dessert... you'll be dreaming about them. read more

Food was amazing !! Service excellent ! Great drinks and dessert. Get the bacon scallop risotto !

Great food, drinks, and staff! Service was quick and friendly, food was delicious, cocktail list is fun.

My husband and I are both originally from Cheshire so we were thrilled to be invited to the soft opening of The Common Table. The building has a long history in town. It started out as a laundromat. That was actually the last time I was in the building. I have to say I was amazed. It is perfect down to the last detail. I especially love the lighting at the tables. They light up the menu but don't interfere with the stunning ambiance of the restaurant. My husband and I both got the cheeseburgers. They were fantastic and cooked to perfection. My niece got the chicken and my daughter in law got the tacos. Everyone was thrilled with their meal. They have a fantastic menu with beer and wine as well as cocktail suggestions. The next time you're looking for a great place to eat give Common Table a try. You won't be sorry. read more
