    I'll go back but I'll keep it to the burgers. It seems more their speed. Too bad though. The area need s few quality restaurants.

    True sugar shack in the sense of it being literally a lean-to attached to a sugar boiling shed…read more Picnic benches covered with vinyl cloths, a big heater blowing constantly because the cracks in the boards let in the drafts. The family that has run this shack is in the third or fourth generation of ownership, my family and I have been going here for over 30 years and have seen it go from a thriving dairy farm with fields and horse-drawn hay rides, with taps and buckets in the individual trees, to a much reduced farm selling off plots for McMansions, struggling even just to keep the sugaring tradition alive. The kitchen is bare bones, just an electric griddle and a small sink area, and the food is not gourmand. But it is fulfilling and delicious and cooked with heart. Like the other reviewer said, this is not a Disneyfied sugar shack, this is the real deal. Throw your support behind authentic New England dairy farmers, but be prepared for a real down to earth farm run by real New Englanders. Bring your rubber boots.

    Windy Hill Farm is the most authentic sugar shack of Western Mass. It is not for those looking for…read morea disney-fied sugar shack breakfast experience -- it's in a geuninely old wood shack in the hilltown, and it's one of the oldest sugar shacks in Mass. It's small but seats probably 20. The Mollison's have been running this shack since the 60's, making their own maple syrup and serving breakfast. It is a sweet, nice experience to go there and see the people who live in the hilltowns who actually go to these less spiffed up places. It is worth your time to go here. The food is not fancy, but they put their heart and soul into it and it is very satisfying. The maple syrup is great, of course. The pancakes, bacon and everything else is made fresh to order. You can see the kitchen in the dining area and my neighbor loves their maple candies. They're home-like pancakes and are typical of the sugar shacks in western mass. (The ones who really work on food and use whole ingredients are Davenport and Strawbale, while Gould's pretty tasty food). You won't be disappointed for visiting the hard working people of sugar season in Mass. It is beautiful.

    For breakfast I ordered a 3 egg omelette with cheese and tomatoes, home fries, coffee and a side of…read morehash. The food was excellent. The people were friendly and pleasant Terrific corned beef hash in particular. But my bill came to $28 with no tax in a place where you go order, get your silverware, pour your own coffee, bus your table, so not full serve. Not that it's an issue at all, but I wanted to give an accurate description. So why 3 stars? Maybe it's me. Maybe I'm just a crotchety almost old man, but $28 seems to be exorbitant without tip. If I'm wrong then It should be four stars.

    Stumbled upon this neighborhood cafe by shear luck. Service was awesome, everyone so friendly as…read moreyou find in neighborhood places. We had eggs, hash and biscuits. Hash was homemade and outstanding! Extra crispy and flavorful. Biscuits were homemade buttermilk and about as good as homemade buttermilk biscuits can get. My husband had coffee which he said was very good (which is high praise from him). I had a small hot chocolate. Do yourself a favor, if you get the hot chocolate, make it a large. Hands down the best I've ever tasted. Light, frothy and Ghirardelli chocolate, need I say more? We saw the pancakes and they are dinner plate sized. The place is unassuming and comfortable, games to play at your table to keep the kids busy. Local artwork for sale. The owner was at the register and he shared the story of how the place came to be. Ask if you meet him, pretty cool and I'm glad they survived their first year. You order at the register and they bring the food to your table. Def stop if you are in the area. We love supporting small business.

    I was amazed how packed this restaurant was on an off-season Saturday night. 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.

We enjoyed for dinner: To Start- Warm baguette with herbed oil, along with Naan Tacos (yummy) For Entrées: Caribbean Style Statler chicken (could've used a hint of scotch bonnet & ginger, but it was good), and the Common Burger (delicious) with matchstick fries. We were too full to try dessert. No worries, there will definitely be a next time. Enjoy! **Oh, I hear they are expanding due to the high demand. Reservations are necessary** Thank you
