Breakfast, lunch, dinner, plus breakfast all day makes this place one of the go-to's in Great Barrington! The croissant egg sandwich with home fries is 9 bucks which for an egg sandwich is expensive but trust me it's worth it. It's very big and the croissant is decadent and buttery, literally melts in your mouth. There's also tomatoes, arugula, avocado, cheese, and the best thick cut bacon I've had. In fact, it's so good we had to get a side of it! Also keep in mind they make the mixed drinks on the stronger side. The servers are all really nice as well and the indoor part is really nice. Can't wait to come back! read more

GB eats - Just get it!! - Diners Near Me - Great Barrington, Massachusetts

We had to wait a little to get into this gem of a eatery and it was worth it! We all had different things like breakfast and lunch items. Hard to please everyone in my family and we all walked out with smiles and full bellies. The Eggs Benedict were good and the Berkshire Melt was amazing! If you're looking for a quiet atmosphere than this isn't your place and yet, we loved how it felt so alive with happy crowds around us. The host was so friendly and wish I took note of her name as she's a great person to be the first person you interact with when your unsure if it's worth waiting. It is! read more

Food here was fine, however the service was the worst experience I've ever had in a restaurant (seriously, not an exaggeration). So bad this is the first time I've written a yelp review because I felt it necessary to warn others. Stopped here on a road trip because the food looked good and reviews looked decent, I recommend you steer clear! Especially if you are a young adult or you have a family, this restaurant does not care about you or your children and will treat you like garbage. I went with my partner, we are both young adults. We received horrible service the entire time, our waitress was never available and it took ages for them to come take our orders or bring over a glass of water. The waitress was very snappy with us, I don't expect servers to be peppy all the time but at least being polite would've been nice. I do not ever expect food to come out quickly, even though the food was the one thing that did because a different waitress dropped it off. Hostess was incredibly rude and snarky, as was the waitress we had. I wish I had gotten their names. We were already planning on leaving no tip as our waitress never even came over to do anything except take our order and throw the check on the table. I take tipping very seriously, and I always tip servers well, so for me to feel this way I must assure you the service was abominable. This is the first time in my life I have NOT tipped. When the waitress dropped the check on the table we noticed it was just the ticket the kitchen gets for our food order with numbers scribbled on the back in pen along with 20% and a new total next to it. I think it's unprofessional to not show any of the tax amounts or a breakdown of the prices at your restaurant, and it seemed very shady to us what that 20% meant so my partner went to inquire with the hostess. They claimed that it was a mandatory 20% tip if you are a minor to which we responded, "we are both 21". They thought we were 17 years old. First of all, I'm not sure it's even legal for them to require minors to tip 20%. Second of all, the conclusion I came to is that either they thought we were 17 the whole time and purposefully gave us crappy service because they "knew" we'd be forced to tip them 20% anyways (so shady!), OR they knew their service was so crappy and we wouldn't leave a tip so they tried to trick us into thinking that was the total amount of the check (hence the scrawled pen on the back with no real indication of what the true prices were) and they thought we wouldn't be confident enough to go speak up for ourselves. I will also say that I went to use the bathroom after and returned the key to the front and heard our waitress and the hostess loudly gossiping about us. Very tasteless. I get complaining to your coworkers, I really do, but maybe wait until you have a private moment instead of whining loudly to the entire restaurant while the people you are complaining about are still in the vicinity. Either way, if you are looking for a nice spot for a date if you're in your teens or early twenties, do not come here because they will treat you very poorly. As well as if you have children don't come here because I personally would not support a business that believes that kind of model of service is okay. read more

GB eats - Polenta breakfast bowl. Soooo delicious! (Bacon, poached eggs, mushrooms, carmelized onions, pesto, parmesan, fried polenta) - Diners Near Me - Great Barrington, Massachusetts

I had high hopes for this place because it's gotten pretty decent reviews. The eggs were greasy & runny. The bacon was good. The sausage was dry, and really bad. Service was ok. A bit of an attitude. Mocha latte - really good. Chocolate Churro beignets were weird and not good. And, Pepsi? Ugh. I'll be back thought because I'm really hoping that my first experience was just a fluke. read more

Absolutely incredible. They were kid friendly, the food was DELICIOUS and so were the drinks. Service was perfect and seriously, the best pork schnitzel sandwich I have EVER had. 1000000/10. read more

Good coffee, cute atmosphere, good Shakshuka (though I would have preferred it a little spicier), and excellent blueberry pancakes. My only real complaint is that the music was overly loud, so I had a hard time holding a conversation with my partner. I would happily go back if I were in town again. read more

Good food, service was friendly. Seating both inside and out. Breakfast all day. My friend got A waffle and an egg sandwich while my other friend got potato cake Benedict. I had the classic burger. All of our food was delicious. Service was good. It was quite busy and they had tables inside, in front and out back in the courtyard. Quite hectic but they did a good job. read more

GB eats - Breakfast - Diners Near Me - Great Barrington, Massachusetts

GB Eats was our luckiest find on our second trip to the Berkshires. My husband and I originally tried getting a table at The Well. We literally stood in the middle of the restaurant waiting for someone to acknowledge our presence. We got so frustrated by the rude service that we just left. Hangry and PO'd, we started wandering Main Street looking for a place for fuel. Perhaps it was the magic of Christmas guiding us, but we stumbled upon GB Eats. Having just been ousted from the Inn (aka The Well), GB Eats became our saving manger. The staff at GB Eats is second-to-none. They're so friendly and make you feel like family. The service would have been enough to warrant a great review, but then comes the food. De. Lish. Probably the best diner food I've had in years. I can't think of a single aspect of this place that wasn't pure perfection. The next time we visit Great Barrington, we will DEF stop by GB Eats again. read more

Ultra noisy. If you want to talk with a friend, this is not the place to dine. The bad acoustics are augmented by a steady pounding of some kind of bass-intensive music. The "no substitutions" policy reminded me of the movie Five Easy Pieces. I wanted to order a turkey club. That comes on a croissant. I wanted any other kind of bread or roll they had in the kitchen. Rye bread was preferred and when I asked the waitress to use rye, she said, "No substitutions." Considering that I was telling them to leave off the bacon, cheese and fried egg from my turkey club, I thought that, since I was saving them money, they might be so grateful that they'd wink and accidentally make my sandwich with rye. I asked her to ask management if this one time they could maybe possibly please use rye bread instead of a croissant. She returned to the table with the verdict: "No substitutions." I asked if I could buy two slices of rye. "Sure. That'll be $2.75." Jack Nicholson: "I know what it comes with but it's not what I want." youtube.com/watch?v=38ma... It's a town with lots of good restaurants that don't treat their customers so poorly. read more

I've just hopped back on yelp after a 7-year hiatus in hopes of saving people the wait and sparing them from this *incredibly* over-rated place. I will tell you the truth: I didn't have high hopes for this place to begin with, but I was SHOCKED at how bad the food was. After resigning myself to waiting 20 minutes at the bequest of a somewhat curt hostess, my toddler and I sat down, expecting something decent. A sweet waitress took our order, and brought out fries quickly-ish (10 min) for my hungry daughter... Fries: The fries were already pretty disappointing even though fries are pretty hard to mess up. Slightly stale, bland, dry, mealy texture. Next came our dishes -- the crab cake sandwich and the Salmon quinoa bowl. Salmon quinoa bowl: I sort of did a double take when it came out because the salmon-quinoa bowl just looked so....sad. It was a small portion, with yellowed and wilted arugula, flanked by a few meager pieces of avocado covered in big black and brown spots. Nothing was seasoned. At all. Even the quinoa tasted like it had been sitting around. The salmon was fresh, thankfully. Crab-cake sandwich: Now onto my crab cake sandwich. I want to preface this by saying I have literally never had a crab cake I didn't like. I took one bite of this sandwich and gagged, having to spit it out. Something tasted wrong. off. Like an old sock. I don't know what made it taste this way -- the crab might have been fine. But the dish was not. I ended up sending this dish back, as well as requesting some avocado for my daughter that wasn't covered in brown spots (it was replaced by another avocado with more black spots). I decided to get the egg and black bean quinoa bowl to replace the dish I sent back. Egg-black bean-corn-quinoa bowl: Again, I was shocked by the meager, sad looking portion, and the extreme tastelessness of all ingredients. Sad black beans that seemed like the came directly from can to plate. Frozen tasteless corn. The saddest tasteless salsa, and completely unseasoned plain poached eggs. Service: Our waitress was sweet, and the manager took my food back. But she didn't seem all that pleased and certainly wasn't apologetic. However, because it was so crowded it was almost impossible to get anyone's attention. I tried calling after people as they ran away. I think I may have been unintentionally making faces of shock and disgust, so I don't blame them for somewhat avoiding our table after that. Long story short: This restaurant has a completely inexplicable following. It doesn't seem to make any effort at all due to its loyal client base -- I am so confused about why there is a wait!! I would recommend this restaurant seriously look at food quality, or that customers consider bringing their business to some of the other tasty options around Great Barrington: Bizen, Baba Louie's..pretty much anywhere but here. read more

Went for brunch with my lady friends. Small place in a busy area, very quaint as my friend would say. Everything on the menu was delicious. From the healthy options (avocado, quinoa, seeds/nuts concoction) to the more guilty pleasures(poached eggs drenched in hollandaise with bacon), everything we ordered was delicious. Mimosa was around $10 but served in a ginormous glass but it was crisp, with the right amount of alcohol that no one was getting messy during brunch. There was a bit of a wait, maybe 20 minutes or so but nothing ridiculous. Space is small but staff is friendly and very efficient. Would definitely return if I were to return to the area! Street parking was tricky since it was a busy weekend (think it was Labor Day weekend?), metered parking. read more

Sometimes it's a big warm inside, but I could careless since the food is so delicious. Staff is friendly. read more

GB eats - My omelette. I have no self control, I couldn't wait. - Diners Near Me - Great Barrington, Massachusetts

See all

Born and bred local here. The "diner" used to actually be a traditional diner with traditional diner food. Sadly, it has become another restaurant which caters to the tourists, by adding avocado and arugula to at least 80% of the items on the menu. My co-worker and I received gift cards from someone for Christmas so we decided to give it a try as we hadn't been there in a long time. We tried to call there to place a to-go order two times allowing the phone to ring 20 times each time without an answer. We then decided to go there and eat. We were not greeted when we walked in and finally after asking about a table we were told it would be a 25 minute wait even though there we at least 5 open tables and only two couples waiting before us. We then decided to place a to-go order and wait for it. We asked if we could put the orders on separate checks as we had two separate gift cards. That seemed to be an inconvenience to the waitress who was incredibly rude. In the end, the food wasn't bad. But, the service was lacking. Unfortunately, I will not be going back there. read more

They are understaffed, so the service is slow - but the food is tasty and the ambiance is comfortable. The staff is kind and attentive, just a little overwhelmed! read more

My husband and I eat at GB eats every time we visit GB. The service is tops and the food is so very good. You do always have to wait, but it is well worth it. read more

This is a lively restaurant with a lot of character (and characters). The wait staff are all at the top of their game -- from relentless practice in this consistently busy spot. The menu presents a wide range for every taste, from Southwest-inspired items to Del-Mar-Va crabcakes, and every dish is crafted with a GB Eats spin. I have only good experiences here, and while the staff are hurried here, they have never been brusque nor rude. But the food . . . GB Eats has found the elusive balance of great flavors and creative combinations but without -- apparently -- the usual off-the-charts sodium. For a fun and fine dining experience in a pointedly casual atmosphere, this is the spot in Great Barrington. read more

Amazing spot! GB Eats serves breakfast all day, but their lunch/dinner menu is solid. They also serve beer and wine. And have a coffee/espresso bar. I had the roasted vegetable salad. But to be honest, I had a lot of trouble deciding what I wanted. Everything looked good: eggs benedict, bahn mi, pesto quinoa bowl, waffles, eggs, corned beef hash. The options go on, and there is something for everyone on this menu. The roasted vegetable salad was the best salad I've ever had. It had frisse greens, roasted parsnips, carrots, and brussel sprouts, feta, toasted pumpkin seeds, and it was perfectly dressed with a balsamic drizzle. It was light and crisp and so fresh. My husband had the burger with an egg and sweet potato fries. The sweet potato fries were amazing. My friend had the pesto avocado quinoa bowl topped with two poached eggs, which also looked so good. Everything was amazing and fresh. This place hit the spot after a long day before hitting the road to go home. read more

Very long wait for lunch but once seated fast and attentive service. Ultimate veggie sandwich was delicious. Good value and cute atmosphere for a quick breakfast or lunch. read more

Great little spot for breakfast. Bit of a strange entry situation but don't let that deter you. The staff was friendly and accommodating on early Saturday morning. I like the fact that they offer alternatives to dairy like soy & almond milk. My almond milk cappuccino was awesome! The coffee is of really good quality- strong but smooth. They serve Berkshire Mountain bakery breads; very high-quality and excellent flavor. Solid variety of breakfast choices with modern takes on tradition as well as influences like Southern California or vegan options. I had the French potato cake eggs Benedict, no Canadian bacon, avocado and sharp cheddar. The potato cakes were dreamy- buttery, creamy w a slight crunch. Everything cooked perfectly seasoned well and a nice portion. They're thick cut bacon was a fan of my table but not the sausage so much. The build your own omelette with smoked Gouda unfortunately was in chunks and never properly melted which wasn't so great & the omelet was overcooked. Cool background music. Great for families, locals, or if you're just up for the weekend. A few little minuses: The restroom situation is strange- you need a key, leave the restaurant walk down the hall to this creepy dark awkward one stall bathroom. Our server was a little flustered - we kept asking for water and it was not delivered until the check came. The booth seating is slightly uncomfortable. read more

I was not a fan of The Neighborhood Diner and can count on one hand the times I dined there in the 11 summers that I have spent in the area.They had been there for 18. But I am a huge fan of the new GB eats. While my son loved his Banh mi , I adored the ample roasted vegetable salad showcasing roasted butternut squash, Brussel sprouts, feta and roasted pepitas on a bed of probably the freshest, most flavor able mixed greens that I have ever had. Their burgers and sandwiches are modern and use local provisions such as sourdough from Berkshire Mountain bakery. Breakfast is served until 3 and they seem to have quite a selection of house made desserts and ice cream from The Scoop in Lenox. Interesting is the North African dish called Shakshuka, an iron skillet with 3 eggs poached in stewed tomatoes, potatoes, feta and peppers. Israelis love this dish and you will too !! This is an upscale bistro type of menu in a casual cafe setting and is a welcomed addition to a town that has recently been depleted of its many dining options. Prices are very fair with the above mentioned sandwiches and salads being in the 10-12 dollar range. There is something for everyone at GB Eats and I hope that they have a successful first year. read more

GB eats - Here is the complete menu as of today, 7/21/16 - Diners Near Me - Great Barrington, Massachusetts

Excellent, kind, friendly, welcoming, and very accommodating staff. And the food was AMAZING!!

Breakfast, as the saying goes, is the most important meal of the day. Today, I had an important and delicious breakfast at GB eats (formerly The Neighborhood Diner.) While the shell of the space is the same, the menu and quality are big step up and the decor is clean and simple. Let's start with the coffee...dark and hot just the way I like it. They also have coffee drinks, but I prefer it black no sugar...just like my soul, and this was soulful coffee. Next, I had the corned beef hash with poached eggs and whole wheat toast. While typically corned beef hash is canned or even dog food-like, this was the R.E.A.L. D.E.A.L. The eggs with deep orange yoke, came perfectly and gently poached. The toast...Berkshire Mountain Bakery bread simply prepared and lightly buttered. My dining companion had the Huevos Rancheros which he said were better than others he has had locally. I got just a taste, and the chili was rich and meaty. GB eats is just what one would want in The Berkshires for a diner breakfast. I used to like The Neighborhood Diner as a 'guilty pleasure', and would leave feeling a bit greasy. I left this morning from GB eats ready to take on the day. read more

Terrible experience, we came for brunch and asked for a bloody mary and the waitress said they didn't have any, only after we had finished eating the waitress came back to inform they had found the bloody mary mix. Very disappointing. I would not recommend nor come back ever. They should have better and more competent staff. read more

Had a great experience here for lunch during the Covid era. We came in with my family, a group of five, and while they didn't have seating right outside the restaurant, they did have a shared back patio with some other local restaurants, and you could order takeout and eat out there. This ended up working pretty well, although all of our food did subsequently end up coming in takeout containers. That being said, we were able to order drinks, appetizers, and entrées which were all hot and delicious when they came out. I had an omelette, which was pretty typical breakfast food. Some other members of our group had their crabcakes, which they raved about. I'll also make a blog for the sweet potato fries, which were surprisingly delicious. I'm knocking a star off for some logistical issues, including forgetting some condiments (notably the butter and jam that was supposed to come with the biscuits!) and having to go back and forth for utensils and water, but overall we had a good experience and will come back if in the area. read more
