    4 stars for the food and service. Extra 1 star because one of us is a huge fan of Chimay beer and this place serve a Chimay on tap. Our server were polite and attentive. Food came pretty quickly. The wings and the mac n' cheese were pretty good. Definitely worth stopping by.

    Are you looking for a light bite to eat? This is not the place for you. And that's okay! The folks here are genuinely nice people who are able keep the wait list in their head as more and more people line up during the dinner rush. The bar seems like it's been here forever with personal beer steins hanging from the rafters. And did I mention the root beer comes straight from the tap too? This is like the cool local watering hole that every place in Brooklyn strives to be... but it's for real. Enjoy the hearty pub fare... and appreciate this gem of a roadside stop on your next trip to the Berkshires. (And leave your attitude about waiting in a line at the door.)

    This is my first time here. We are in town to take care of a few things and staying at the Wyndham pretty close and our front desk staff told us about the Olde Forge. The food was great! I ordered what was called Etoufee. Never heard of it before. It was sausage, chicken, and shrimp all in a spicy sauce and some steamed white rice. I really enjoyed this meal. We did have 4 adults and 3 kids in our party and it took quite a while for our food to come out. Also took a while for drink refills. Not sure if they were busy or just don't typically have a larger party dine there. All in all we really enjoyed the food. We did enter from the bottom level. Not sure if that is a customer entrance or not. Once again we are not from around here haha

    They specialize on wings but burgers are great too. A special thanks to Mount Greylock staff for recommending the place.

    This is a true hidden gem! We arrived during the winter break and our first night here was perfect…read more We didn't had a reservation, but we were able to find two seats in the bar area. Our bartender was super nice and fast. He came and brought the menus really quick. Our drinks were really good and the food came out really fast. I believe the first night we had the wings and the homemade chips, as well as the ramen !(the wings and chips were perfect). The Asian inspired dish was a little bit spicy but very tasty. The second night we tried the mushrooms crostini and again was perfect. Decent burger, I would have loved the bun a little bit more toasted, and the cheese a little bit more melted but other than that was good. I had a fish dish that night. ( not too crazy about the Brussels sprouts but other than that was good) . Yes, we came back for a third time for New Year's Eve. I really wanted to try the miso Caesar salad and again it was 10 out of 10. Probably the best Caesar salad I had so far! My husband had the steak that night and I had the pasta. Both good. Ma favorite? The salad and dessert. ( apple crisp with ice cream, a must ). The ambiance was really good, we loved the cozy vibes at the bar, the decor, dim lights and especially the 80' music. Can't wait to return!

    I'm giving a 4 star rating because it's so close to where we are staying! The vibe is lively and…read morethe decor is quaint. Every time we've been it's full. The service is great, the staff is friendly and accommodating. The food is ok. I did enjoy the hangar steak (although it was bit dry since I don't put barbeque sauce on my steak) and the salmon was good, but the side couscous with the salmon last night was cold. Tonight we ordered the pork chop (delicious), but the sweet mashed potatoes had the skin on them (?) so I couldn't eat all of them. The Mediterranean baby kale salad was very good, but the chicken was dry. The paper planes cocktails are excellent! Overall a very good experience and definitely recommend.

    We decided to try this place one day for dinner since it changed hands into a 'Jamaican'…read morerestaurant a couple years ago. Formerly The Lantern, still a bar vibe/a bit dark inside. We both got the jerk chicken with greens. While we finished our dinner and it tasted good; I have several specific impressions and suggestions for improvement. First of all, both of our dinners could have arrived much hotter. They were more like "well warmed" in a microwave than truly hot- so I assume that's how they typically do it there. We were hungry enough not to send it back to be 'heated up' more -but they should be aware of how hot their food should be when presented to customers. Second, we love Jamaican food- goat curry/jerk chicken/oxtails, greens, etc. This chicken was seasoned + tasty; but the chicken honestly tasted like BBQ chicken much more than the jerk chicken I've had in any other restaurants. Finally- and in the end this was the worst issue, the gal who was our waitress either had never done a waitress job before, or was so poorly trained at this establishment that she literally had no idea what she should be doing/noticing/taking care of. At various points, this was frustrating (she didn't check on us at all), didn't seem to know if we needed more water/napkin,etc. mainly because she just didn't walk by the table/or stand back keeping a watchful eye on her table. At certain points, I heard her boss talking to her and telling her what to do next- but clearly she didn't even have a basic concept of what she was supposed to be doing. I waited tables a lot thru college and eventually I felt sorry for her lack of training in a job where you clearly represent the business. But, we were the only people in there for dinner, only 1 person drinking in the bar besides us. It was just unacceptable. We won't return-but would love to find good Jamaican food somewhere in the region. PS It was several months ago when we ate there, hopefully staff is consistently better trained now.

Off the beaten path…read morein 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.
