Good ice cream, hit or miss food, seething hostility from the service…read more This place is convenient to Mass MoCA, tucked in by the main entrance to the museum building, just past the gift shop. Some signage would have helped, because we had trouble locating it on our first visit. The place can get backed up, especially when timed events are finishing up. Service is not slow when there are few people, but the kitchen seems to get backed up after a line forms. I had the black bean burrito, which was pretty tasty with cholula, and my daughter had a grilled cheese. The caesar salad my wife had was not so great, mostly due to the rock hard slabs of cold chicken breast. So, the food seems hit or miss. We really enjoyed the ice cream, house made with good flavors and served slightly soft. The service was deplorable, though it may have just been our experience with one server. The young lady taking our order was extremely rude and seemed very put upon having to take our simple, friendly order. She even disappeared mid-order to go stand idle somewhere else and it was unclear if she was coming back until I called out to her to which she snapped "I'm listening!" but it certainly wasn't clear that she was listening. I will always look past mediocre service and bad days - the service industry is tough - but the outright hostility is unacceptable in any social setting. Management should definitely be on top of this and take more care on who is placed in customer facing roles.

On our first ever trip to MassMOCA for Loud Weekend we took a break between sets to grab a bite to…read moreeat. Luckily we beat the rush but I can understand why other helpers commented on the wait time and ordering process. We ordered the Mediterranean salad which was fresh and served with a scoop of mashed chickpeas, I hesitate to call with Hummus because I did not taste tahini and it was rather thick and chunky. Also a generous slice of tasty bread. We also got a bowl of the Ghanaian chicken soup which was fabulous!! The setting is light and bright into industrial, next to the gift shop inside the gallery.

Andrew found the Norad Cafe for us and I am glad he did. At first we thought this was a Cold War…read morerelic but on looking in detail we see that the Norad couple here is an old mill that today houses the cafe, a record store, a yarn maker and more! This is worth a quick stop just to take a look at some history. The cafe is just inside the main door. It is glassed in so you go in and order at the counter. The breakfast menu has many of the breakfast things on it that you might want and is reasonably priced. I ordered the breakfast sandwich with tots, Andrew had a breakfast burrito, and I don't remember what Jim had. I though my breakfast sandwich was excellent. It was simple with an English muffin, sausage patty, fried egg, and a slice of white American cheese. I don't know why American cheese color is regional, but it is, and that is what I expect here. Anyway, this was a simple yet delicious sandwich. The tots were ok but they were under a heat lamp for a while. Andrew enjoyed his burrito. The coffee was very good too. I recommend stopping here for breakfast, maybe lunch too.

I love it here! The…read moresandwiches are unlike anything I've ever had. The Happy Chick is a popular favorite, but I really like the Ryker, and the Sawyer the best! Everything always tastes fresh, and the employees are always so nice. My favorite part is the wide variety of homebaked goods that are restocked every day! I go for a slice of pumpkin bread as often as I can! The brownies and big beautiful cupcakes are also very popular. The market also stocks a range of items you would find at a convenience store, such as snacks and beverages, or shampoo if you need it. My only complaint is that there is no telling how long it will take to make your food. Sometimes you can be in and out within a few minutes, but other times it could take me half an hour to make my sandwich, even if the restaurant doesnt appear to be busy. So if you are getting your food to go, call ahead if you can!

Genuinely the most pretentious establishment I have ever step foot in. Get ready for NYC prices…read moremultipled by not just slow, but inattentive service. Tries to justify prices by using local products- well, it doesn't account for the sub-mediocre quality. No matter what I buy (i.e. a bottled drink and coffee cake) the total price blows my mind. Don't be fooled by lack of pictures; I've unfortunately been here too many a time as a Williams student. So happy to never have to come here again. Do better.

Crisp and delicious. The salad had both red and golden beets and a spicy balsamic dressing. My partner asked if she could get a small side of chicken, and was given some by the wonderful staff, who wouldn't even hear of charging her for it. (Your mileage may vary.) You order at the counter and they bring your food to your table. They have a specialized kids menu, as well. I'll happily return each time I visit the Clark.

Below average, below ground museum café. I could blame the architects of the new unit, who stuck…read morethis downstairs in the back with a kind of soulless seating floor and a very awkward cafeteria-style system. But the food direction is also odd, with an order-with-numbers system where you have to wait for it if you're going outside to eat (which requires schlepping your food up some massive stairs and around two turns just to get to the outside area) but for which they'll deliver if you're in the dismal downstairs. It's a huge missed opportunity; the largely empty (perhaps to keep it aesthetically pleasing) spot for the bookstore/gift shop, obviously positioned on the first floor to get more traffic, is adjacent to the outside seating area and would have been a far better choice for the café. The counter service was a strange mix of hovering and inattentive. As for the food, it's a theoretically nice set of high-end salads with no hot options (the hot stuff we ordered was just tepid), but is thrown together, given ingredients and pricing. The salmon-spinach salad, for example, was just baby spinach with sort of indifferent slices of salmon (not chopped for better coverage for flavor) tucked at random inside; the caesar salad was about as plain as you could imagine, and the special "Buddha Bowl", which a tasty original, was a pretty small portion for double digit pricing. It's adequate but it's not the kind of café to make you say "oh, let's meet for lunch at the Clark!", and without good inside seating that takes advantage of the beautiful view, adjacent to that view, it's just a quick refueling stop.

In Bennington randomly for a doctor's appointment with my son. Reached for Yelp to guide us for a…read morebrunch-time sandwich - this led us here. Outside looked like a furniture/nicknack store. Typical "I love VT" t shirts and stuffies in the window, $400 syrup, and artsy cards and candles etc. Making our way to the back was a small nook of seats and tables and a breakfast/sandwich/bagel menu. To say we were skeptical was an understatement. My son ordered a Southwestern steak and egg sandwich on a rainbow bagel. I had a dill pickle chicken salad sandwich on an everything bagel. Add in a coffee, a hot chocolate, two cans of Diet Coke (and a small cheesecake round for my son) and we were all set. Menu was way more reasonably priced than we expected. Average bagel sandwich (which they fill amply) was roughly $10. All of the fillings were very good. Well seasoned. Creative. Again, exceeded our initial expectations. Even the bagels were surprisingly good. Please note I grew up in NJ so a bagel is essentially unattainable to me north of the Tappanzee Bridge. I was expecting "airport quality," however, it was not half bad. Chewy and tasty for the area. Service left me with two very distinct feelings. 1) the people were AWESOME. Friendly, attentive, seemingly happy to be at work (a rarity). But... 2) there were 6 total customers in the store (some simply reading books) and yet it took 16 minutes for our coffee and hot chocolate and roughly 30 for the sandwiches. Was so weird to experience the quiet of the store - yet the ticket time and wait of a bustling morning at a deli. Oh well. Was a pleasant place to be. Will likely find a different place next week following our upcoming appointment. But was not mad at the experience.
