Second time coming to Fitzwilly's, this last time was the bomb. Service was excellent, salads were delicious. Atmosphere was rustic, only downside was the faint smell of cigarettes periodically. Otherwise will be back to try some other menu options and maybe a drink as well. read more

Would burnt bun be acceptable? This should have never left the kitchen and served to me. Their remedy was to bring me a large roll instead of bringing my sandwich back to the kitchen and the manager a very rude blonde was argumentative instead of apologizing she just kept saying I was being argumentative. I didn't end up paying for my sandwich but the issue was not resolved! read more

I was in a mood where I wanted a good hamburger. Their bacon cheeseburger was exactly what I wanted! Fries good too. Mrs loved her fish tacos. Varied and expansive beer wine list too. read more

Good food. Strong drinks. Waitress was really nice & helpful We ate outside and it was loud, but you could still hear your group at the table. And our kids probably added to the noise, so no complaints. Food was SLOW ... an hour for nachos ... but we had a big party, so maybe that's why. read more

This was my first time eating at Cal's. I've heard good things and I wasn't disappointed. My dining companion made our reservation for 6p as I've heard there's usually a long wait on weekends otherwise. We were seated immediately on time in a nice booth. Our server took the drink orders and upon returning, gave the rundown of specials for the evening. Cal's is rather dark inside. Dark wood furnishings, beams and artwork. It reminds me in some ways of and old home. There are pillars and dividers for areas. As it was Saturday evening, it was very busy. Seated near us was a family dinner for a 94 year- old matriarch, another table was celebrating a birthday and then one other large party. Even with these larger parties, Cal's still manages to seem intimate when seated in the booths. The booths are divided with their large high back almost pew-like cushioned bench seats. I think it's the dark decor and accent lighting that encourages this intimate, homey feel. I had a cosmopolitan, while it looked correct, the taste, lackluster. For my meal I ordered the special: scallops risotto. It came with salad or soup and of course fresh rolls with butter. I had the salad with blue cheese dressing. I'm very picky with my blue cheese, this was delicious (upcharge .50 and well worth it!). My companion ordered the chicken francaise without capers (egad!!!!) The presentation was spot on. My scallops were the right amount of chewy tenderness and flavorful. The risotto was creamy, with a nice blend of tomato and cheese. I was afraid the tomato would be over powering, it wasn't. As chatty as I am, I was silenced momentarily... totally immersed in my cheesy goodness and warm atmosphere. My companion enjoyed their chicken francaise and remarked it was tender, the sauce was not overbearing. Along with not liking capers, they are not fond of sauces. All in all, the meal was excellent. Our server was polite and maintained the ability of being attentive without being intrusive. The atmosphere is homey and intimate, yet somehow still suitable for a larger party of people. I'll definitely be back. read more

Have always found a consistent quality to the food here. It's been around forever and that says something too. A major downside is the parking situation. It's terrible. But that goes for a lot of Northampton. Not sure what could be done about that but someone needs to come up with something. read more

Disclaimer--- this was pre COVID times. I went back in January 2020. Stumbled across this dive when driving down from VT this weekend. Originally we were planning to go to Jake's down the block, but the line was way to long to wait. Fitzwilly's restaurant was a delightful experience. First, no waiting-- not going to lie it made me slightly nervous how empty the place was... but the food here was no joke! Dined in with a group of 5 and a booth in the back fit us comfortably. read more

My wife and I visited this restaurant yesterday afternoon. We had the Fried Brussels Sprouts for our appetizer and after that my wife had the Autumn Chopped Salad with Grilled chicken. I had the Smoked Half Chicken with the roasted veggie medley and a garden salad. Everything was awesome and our waitress Jessica was very attentive. She was fantastic and very sociable. This was the perfect spot to stop on the way back to Connecticut. Thank you and again Kudos to the chef the smoked chicken was out of this world. read more

I come here every time I am in the area. I simply love their boneless buffalo wings. Moist, generous in size, with a buttery buffalo sauce. Simply the best! Their interior space is nicely decorated with vintage items, and they have outdoor sidewalk seating as well. La top of the hat to my server Caitlin..she was attentive and prompt. read more

I good place for a beer with your Smithee daughter. (Food was good too.)

We had the BJAM burgers, and they were HUGE! I expected there to be bacon on them-but there wasn't. the bacon jam was not at all bacon-y; just sweet. The burgers were cooked properly, medium rare as requested. Unfortunately, the rolls were not as fresh as they should have been and fell apart while eating the burger. They were pretty dry, and I ended up not eating most of my roll. Our server was excellent, the atmosphere was fun, and we were able to get in and out in a timely fashion for our show. Overall a decent experience. read more

Friendly service and good food. However cold air rushes in as ppl walk in and out, so don't sit close to the entrance. So far I think the wings are my favorite. read more

Last night we called about 8 pm and ordered take out based on Yelp! They were super nice and thoughtful. The Tuscany was great and the French onion soup was great too. They included plastic ware and the order was ready to go as promised! The place was open for dine in and had a great feel and look it! Recommended ! read more

We've walked by this place a couple of times and it always seems to have a crowd. This day we got there just in time. They have a few tables outside but it was way to hot so we got a little table by the window. The fresh corn and andouille sausage fritters were delicious... add more andouille. It was hard to find. I ordered the turkey burger with avocado and mayo on side. I never received the mayo but that's fine. I was told the coleslaw was homemade so I gave it a try. Not bad!! She got the Korean barbecue chicken sandwich with French fries. The sandwich was spicer than expected. There were a lot of items to choose from so I look forward to going back and trying something new. read more

I'm giving this 5 stars for what it is, comfort food, not 5 stars michelin FYI. That said, I ordered curbside pickup. The ordering process was great - bartender made a couple of suggestions. Super helpful since I'm not from the area and had never eaten here. The food was ready quickly and brought right to my car by a cheery waitress. The food was great. Blackened shrimp risotto, Mom's Mac n Cheese, Gorgonzola Garlic Bread. Looks like it would be a cool place to actually dine in. read more

Monday lunch with three others was a cozy experience in a booth. Large persons would not be comfortable. I had the steak salad. The meat was tasty but on the tough side. There was very little variety in the greens and the blue cheese was on the stingy side. But it was all fresh. My husband had fish and chips which he really enjoyed and the other two people each had a big burger with fries. They were happy with their choices. The service was excellent. The ambiance is a mix of vintage-rustic-woodsy with good music playing at a moderate level. As we were leaving Steely Dan could be heard. read more

Friendly waitstaff. Great drinks so thanks to the bartender. Ceasar salad always good, and the mac and cheese is decent. Very predictable and reliable. read more

Recommended to us by the front desk staff at the Hotel Northampton. Very friendly service, delicious food, and large portions. Delicious scallop chowder. Brussells sprouts roasted and flavored to perfection. Their fish and chips is among the best I've ever had. Very crispy, well-seasoned breading on the outside, and a thick cut of fresh, tender white fish on the inside. My wife ordered the meatless burger, and she loved it. Highly recommended whether you're only staying for one night or many nights in Northampton. read more

I've ate here a handful of times now and I keep coming back. There are a lot of really great places to eat in Northampton but I find myself coming here because of the convenience and familiarity, it's always a "safe" choice. I've tried a few different things on the menu but lately whenever I go I order the beyond meat burger. I try to eat vegan whenever I can, so if restaurants have vegan and vegetarian options I'm always eager to try them. They do have other tasty things on the menu though. Three years ago I tried their regular meat burger and it was quite delicious. This restaurant also caters to big parties quite well, last year we came here for my brothers birthday and had over 12 people and one waitress, I'm sorry I can't remember her name, did an excellent job serving us. Most of the table ordered alcoholic drinks and she was on top of getting everyone refills when asked. Overall I think the servers are very friendly, pleasant people and they serve really good food. One final thing I want to mention, my friends and I came here not too long ago and my friend ordered a dish she really didn't like, the Cajun Shrimp Pasta, her fiancé and myself both tried it as well and it really wasn't our favorite either, nothing I would ever order again. She was so embarrassed about not liking it, but as soon as our waitress was notified she took care of it immediately with a smile on her face. She got instead the Wicked Alfredo which was delicious! This just goes to show that they really value customer service, so if you are unhappy with something, most people will be happy to fix it for you. read more

Fitzwillys gives a local, non chain vibe, good staffing, easy conversation acoustics and some good options if you know what to order. The best dish on the menu is the shrimp, sausage, and chicken jambalaya. Make sure to get it with the pure comfort pistachio cornbread. The portion is big enough to split especially if you get apps, like the French onion soup. Other dishes are fine to okay but may feel a bit much for what they are, level of execution. Not a first date spot but a great meet friends option. read more

This place has gone down hill, the food was cold and the manager was disrespectful to my friend who is deaf. Made us feel uncomfortable with watching us our entire meal. read more

The fried fish here is the crispiest I've ever had. And the French fries taste like creamy Yukon gold potatoes. This fish dinner makes up for some of the fish frys I've missed at La Salette in Attleboro (Good Friday). And I didn't bother to put ketchup on my fries. The steak tips are also delicious. read more

Came here with friends last weekend for a nice outside lunch in the fading days of fall. They had a great COVID set up both outside and inside. We chose to eat outside on the sidewalk, though they also had a tent. The menu looked great! We would have all eaten anything on it, but I settled for the crab cake sandwich which was great. Had one of the seasonal cocktails and beers on tap...meh, cocktail didn't live up to the hype, and the beer recommendation just wasn't for me. Only other concern is that I'm a wheelchair user. During COVID times, this is fine because I can eat outside. However I don't think this would be an option with me if it was inside dining only. There seems to be three big steps to get in the entrance. I see they had a doorbell ring for wheelchair users, but if you've ever had to use those....iykyk. Would love it if you made some structural changes to the entrance like the rest of Northampton. read more

I have been coming hear longer than I care to admit ... okay, over 30 years. When we were at college, this place was original and had an innovative menu. That was years ago and not much has changed BUT the food is still solid and tasty. Both my boys ended going to colleges out this way and they seem to like the menu and its comfort food. I have not had a bad meal here. While their items are not original (a step above pub food), the food is always fresh and as advertised. The prices are decent as well. At my most recent visit, I had a Thanksgiving Sammy which is a turkey sandwich with all the fixings (stuffing, cranberry chutney, mayo and onion strings). It was perfect - we missed Thanksgiving this year due to a death in the family so this sandwich worked for me on so many levels. read more

Traveling from out of state, this town was suggested to go dine at. It was about a 20 min scenic drive from Westfield where I was staying and it well worth it. I drove around awhile as there were MANY restaurants to chose from and FitsWilly's stood out to me. Parking is a premium as the town was packed on a Wednesday evening Aug 8. I was welcomed right in and with openings at the bar, I decided to eat there. The bartender was on the spot and made a few entree suggestions. I went the safe route and chose the Reuben. Prob not the healthiest item, but it really sounded good. I ended up eating it open faced to cut down on bread. Great flavor. The service was great, the food awesome, the decor was very cool like an old brewery. The place was packed but not too loud. TVs at the bar showing local baseball game. I met a regular patron and it seemed this was the place to be. I'll come back when in the area. read more

Waitress was great. Nachos were horrible. Came out cold and very bland. The shredded chicken was awful. I was afraid to order anything else.

I hadn't been to Fitzwilly's since I was in college, and it was even BETTER than I remembered! Excellent food, great service, and a very fun atmosphere.

Under difficult circumstances, the staff remained professional, courteous and friendly. We made a last minute reservation for a party of 10, and 15 people ended up showing up, which was outside what they originally could accommodate considering it was a very busy night for them. The waitress, Sarah France, made a miracle happen and found us another table, which we ultimately didn't end up using. It was chaotic but she remained friendly and professional throughout, and we were served quickly with all the right orders. overall, it was the perfect place to host a birthday party, the vibe was homey and interesting, the food was delicious and high quality, and the drinks were just right. 10/10, will definitely be coming back. read more
