Heard good things about this spot and added it to our vacation plan. Our rental has a full kitchen…read moreso we grabbed three frozen pizzas and six frozen herb & chess chibatta. The bread will go home with us. The pizza is for dinner. Each pizza would probably serve one adult man and are absolutely delicious. Cooking instructions are on the wrap - put them right on the rack. Crispy crust has plenty of air pockets to keep it light with a good chew. The BBQ onion is sweet. The roasted garlic had a bunch of garlic scattered all over. Lots of cheese on both. The last pizza, roasted red pepper, will be for another day. They had about five pre-made frozen pizza options when we visited. If you prefer, call ahead and they will build one fresh to your liking for you to pick up and bake at home. The interior shopping area is small. By the register is a pastry display case with the most enormous stuffed croissants, scones, cookies and other sweet treats. Behind that is a display of fresh breads. On a rack by the door are bagged bread goods. Freezer and refrigerator cases are along the wall. If I lived around here I would without a doubt be a regular customer and try all their offerings. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Cozy seating area by the front door to enjoy your purchases on site. Big parking lot.

This place has amazing artisanal sourdough breads, ryes, spelts, kamutes, and chocolate bread. Plus baked pastries like our favorite but elusive caneles (a piece of heaven!) they also have a section of discounted price day-old breads - which, if I lived here, I'd be visiting every day!

This Italian cafe, cucina, & lounge has a large, very nice outdoor seating area (inside seating also). Very attentive waiter but didn't get the young man's name. Appetizers were marinated olives w/ foccacina ($10), Calamari alla Romana ($15), & fried zucchini sticks ($13). All served hot & tasty. Ten pizzas on the menu are $15-20. We had a variety of classic Italian entrees ($20-25). Five house made ravioli dishes ($20-24). All familiar to diners who like Italian styles cuisine, and appreciate high quality & presentation. Open: Mon, Wed, Thur, & Fri 4-9pm, closed Tue, Sat & Sun 11am-9pm. Very enjoyable first time visit here. Thank you. Nick & Liz, Albany, NY & our Parisi family

It's a nice looking place and the atmosphere was good…read more The food was sad. I ordered a Chicken Parmigiana. My grandson ordered chicken fingers and fries. My dish was chicken parmigiana covered in red sauce with cheese, a decent amount of cheese (no complaint about that) His dish was breaded chicken breast and french fries. When I tried cutting into my chicken, it was tough! They only gave me a butter knife to cut the Chicken Parmigiana but chicken breast is supposed to be tender. I'm sawing away at something rough tough, like using the butter knife to cut a piece of leather or a hunk of tree bark. I kept looking over at his breaded chicken breasts---hmmm? I scraped off the red sauce and I had the same breaded chicken breasts that he had---mine looked like they were precooked (we had arrived just at noon) . The server mentioned we could order anything off the breakfast, lunch or dinner menu. Having worked in kitchens many times in my life, my take is they had a bunch of precooked breasts from the day before in the walk-in unit, slapped one down reheated it, ladled the sauce, melted the cheese. Additionally--the salad that came with my meal--it was likely laid on the plate before the chicken--the chicken, sauce was simply plopped over 1/3 of the salad. My wife's pizza looked "ok". This is an attractive place, ambiance good, very polite attentive server--- but the food is just an inch above the old local sub shop and pizza places inhabiting Massachusetts and Upstate New York---

I stop at this hidden star on my way to Hudson NY-every time!…read more I order the WRAP with NO NAME, a pickle and a cup of one of the finest hot soups! This visit I Chose a vegan chile, super packed with veg and beans-spiced just right. There's four to choose from and they wow without question! The wrap is Vegan, they clearly entertain all food liberals, and I am thankful GF is not included with every Vegan option! The wrap had quinoa salad/kale AND a generous offering of hummus, Salad mix and tomato. The space is super welcoming and service is clearly marked, making the flow of ordering a breeze. They also have ample amounts of paper menus if you need an extra minute to choose. Sweets look fresh and shop made-the peach pie almost won me over this time.... Beautiful job-outdoor seating is fun and whimsical for warmer days as well....

Been here several times. Service is meh. People not that friendly behind the counter. But gal who…read morebrought me sandwich was delightful. Ordered burger before. It was ok. Nothing special Today had bacon egg and cheddar in focaccia -- lots of scrambled egg well cooked - bacon was barely cooked and I really could not discern the cheese. This white focaccia Roll was only option. No whole wheat, no English muffin or bagels. Coffee was ok. Honestly not that hot in temperature -- Casual vibe. I was a bit disappointed overall. But I know their lunch menu is probably better...

It topped off a delectable meal and night. Kudos to the chef and staff for making our anniversary celebration extra special

We were really looking forward to dining here and had saved this restaurant as the culmination of…read moreour trip to the Berkshires. Unfortunately, our experience was extremely disappointing. We arrived for our reservation and were offered a very small two-top. Because we were dining with our dog, we politely asked if it would be possible to wait for a larger table where she would not be in the way of other guests or staff. We were not demanding a different table -- we were told it would take approximately 30 minutes for another table in a different section to become available, and we happily said we were willing to wait. We sat quietly outside with our dog while waiting. The owner then approached us and told us that waiting for another table would interfere with future seating. We were surprised by this, as we had simply accepted the wait time that was provided to us and had not caused any disruption. The interaction escalated when the owner used profanity toward my husband and threw the water bowl that had been provided for our dog in our direction. We were shocked by the hostility and left without eating. We completely understand that restaurants have to manage reservations and seating, and we would have accepted being told that our request could not be accommodated. What was unacceptable was the way we were spoken to and treated by the owner. We came here excited to spend our money at this restaurant as part of our trip, but we are grateful that Great Barrington has many other excellent establishments where we were welcomed and happy to spend our money instead. Unfortunately, this experience was the opposite of the hospitality we expected.

The steak tips, which are described as having a bourbon glaze, were a bit underseasoned and I didn't really pick up that advertised glaze. More successful dishes included their baked onion soup, which was fantastic. The broth was a bit lighter than many beef based French onion soups, but it was herbaceous and a little sweet from the caramelized onions. Lots of melted cheese and bread chunks that soaked up the delicious broth. The burrata peach pizza was also really enjoyable, with a great wood fired crust that was airy and light. The combination of sweet peach, hot honey, and salty prosciutto worked really well. The upstairs dining area was kid friendly, though adults can enjoy their decent beer selection, including some options from Antimony brewery, which I believe is the same ownership group. Their No Rules Plum Sour Ale was a very enjoyable, and who doesn't love a cider w/ a cinnamon sugar rim to kick off fall!

The clam chowder was everything we hoped it would be. We didn't have reservations, so there was a bit of a wait, but honestly, it worked out perfectly. We wandered around the nearby streets of Lenox while we waited, and the area was so cute and charming. Once seated, the service was great, and the crab cakes were delicious too. Definitely worth a stop if you're in Lenox, especially if you're on the hunt for a really good bowl of New England clam chowder!
