This is a great coffee shop…read more The whimsy was in full gear with the "find a skull in your drink get a free drink" promotion on the board outside the shop. I got the Berkshire breakfast sandwich on English and the caper pesto was Amazing!! I was also really thrilled with the Vanilla Cinnimon Latte. The person working the register was fantastic to confirm what kind of bread I wanted because my body doesn't play well with oats so multigrain would have been a bummer. So well done and thank you! My husband enjoyed an espresso and a lox bagel. Which he also really liked. We sat in the window in the comfy chairs with a mannequin bust. Jazz brunch must be really fun here. I noticed all of their lighting set up. The bathroom is a little terrifying, but in kind of a fun way? And I don't want to ruin it for you so I'll say no more.

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.

Our first encounter with On A Roll Cafe was on a quiet Sunday morning…read more while starting the trip to Albany AIrport. Breakfast places in Pittsfield are nice, the food is good - but we were looking for a spot close to the hotel (Courtyard) and a healthy meal. The Cafe was open and we decided to try it. Mark had eggs and potatoes - I tried a granola and yogurt bowl and fresh fruit on top, and extra fruit (instead of a muffin) on the side. The food was fresh, delicious, and the service excellent. Other customers wandered in and ordered as well - the staff handled everyone kindly and professionally. It was a bit damp still - so outside seating seemed a bit risky, but the outdoor space in front of the Cafe entrance is positively lovely. There is a brook running alongside it, and multiple chairs and tables under the trees. A lovely spot for a meal. We will definitely visit the Cafe again, since we are in the area at least 3 times a year visiting family. Try it, you'll like it!!!

The service was so friendly and so efficient. Since my friends and I are doing "dry January" we order faux mimosas...which we made ourselves at the table...sparkling water and orange juice. We had coffee and teas (a good selection of teas!) The two best items we tried were the Full Stack Lemon Ricotta Pancakes & the Eggs Benedict with Avocado, Bacon & Brie Eggs Benedict. The pancakes were lemony and creamy and not too sweet. The Benedict was savory, the poached eggs were perfectly cooked (runny), and the English muffins were toasted to perfection. The avocado and bacon and Brie was so savory and creamy and in sync with the hollandaise sauce. SO GOOD! We also had the Sweet Potato Bacon Hash, which tasted delicious but the texture was a little mashed potato-like. I wished the potatoes had a bit more structure. The Corned Beef Hash (side) was not special, just basic corned beef hash. Large fruit plate was fresh with a great variety of fruit! I will come back again for sure!

There was a generous amount of peper on the eggs in the breakfast sandwiches. The best part about this place is the location. Walking distance from mass moca and Right inside Berkshire Emporium & Antiques, you will never run out of entertainment. Either wander the endless maze of cool vintage finds or take a seat in the cafe.

Some wins and some misses. Good bread, good fried calamari, great tiramisu. Service was friendly…read moreand the atmosphere was good for North Adams. Red sauce entrees were a miss. The pasta itself was nice, but the red sauce was completely flavorless. This is a critical detail for an Italian restaurant to get right, and is the main reason for docking 2 stars.

Just okay. Steak was grey looking and lacked flavor. Was expecting the home fries to be homemade…read morebut tasted frozen. Only thing really going for them was the French toast that looked and tasted home-made. Service and waitress were nice, but personally wouldn't go back. Also to mention it's a CASH ONLY place. There is an ATM inside but I don't think there was any warning beforehand.

This is the cafe associated with the Clark art museum and institute…read more We had a wonderful late lunch here, of the beet salad and a veggie pizza. The pizza is on a filo dough crust. 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.

We were nearby for Solid Sound and looking for breakfast. We liked Moonlight enough that we went…read moretwice. Moonlight is a diner with some rock and roll decor to remind you of Elvis I guess. The food is what I expect from a diner, service was good and quick, and the meals were solid. I bet there is something regional here that I am not used to so I will explain when we get to it. The first day I asked about the hash, that appears to come from a can so not what I wanted. I instead had the cheese omelet, sausage, potatoes, and corn muffin. They say they bake the muffins in house and this was a good one. They split it and grilled it with some butter and I this was fantastic. The cheese omelet was well prepared and great. The sausage was weird to me for breakfast as it was not what I know to be breakfast sausage but it was good. The potatoes were ok, kind of plain. The catsup tasted like some weird local brand so that was a disappointment. The second time we went I wanted the same thing but they were out of corn muffins! That turned out ok because the pancakes were great. The omelet was well prepared but I did not like the sliced sausage in it, I was expecting sort of a fold over omelet with ground sausage. Oh well, it was good. We will be back ini two years for the next Solid Sound. Hope to see the Moonlight too!
