The bill was about 120.00 which for lunch is a lot but we are 2 adults/4 kids. It's strange that they bring your coffee to your table, but then you have to take it all the way to the sugar/cream station at the front. They bring you your meal, but you get your own water and silver. I get it; it's cute, but kinda strange too - especially when lunch is that costly. I also, I think a 15.00 açaí bowl has more açaí in it - but it was really good. Everything was good. And the staff was super nice.

Great gift shop to find small gifts. Errs on the side of home decor and kitchen/bar gifts. Small…read morebut sweet options for kids and small but great accessories for ladies. Worth stopping in if you're on North Street or looking for a nice gift.

I first came across this place a few years ago when my wife and I visited the Berkshires. While…read morewalking by, we noticed several prints in the window that we thought would look great in our home. We decided to step inside and found even more things that caught our interest. They had a variety of items--jewelry, souvenirs, framed prints of artwork, comics, maps, and something I found particularly unique: framed book spines. As we browsed, the employee working there was incredibly friendly and helpful. Although we were initially on the fence about purchasing an art print, we ended up getting that along with some of the framed book spines. We recently returned to the area and decided to stop by again. This time, the owner was there, and he was just as friendly and helpful. A few years back, some coworkers had given me a gift certificate for the store after I told them about it. I had completely lost track of it, but the owner called his wife to see if she could locate any record of it--and within 10 minutes, they found it! We left the store with another large framed print, another book spine, and an enlarged, framed vintage train ticket from the Northeast Corridor. If you're ever in Pittsfield and looking for wall art or unique souvenirs at good prices, definitely stop by this cute store.

Don't mistake Museum Facsimiles as the Berkshire Museum's gift shop just because of its name or…read morethat it's literally right next door to the actual museum. This is separate and apart from the museum. So forget the oversized pencils and postcards racks- what you'll find are unexpected gifts, stylish homeware items, metal jewelry, garden stuff, leather goods, Can-Can French posters and more in this shop. We got our hands on an $18 metal hanging bird bath, ornamental metal hooks for about $6 ea. and a few other things. In a nutshell, Facsimiles has it all with banging prices.

I have purchased their products in shops in the past, and in November, I ordered from their website due to an incredible sale. Not only did I score a slew of excellent deals, I also received the most generous bag of freebies. Shipping took only a few days. I'm a big fan of whimsical socks, and sadly, many brands at the same price point as Blue Q fail to hold up after multiple washes. I have never had an issue with Blue Q's socks. For this reason, I will only buy socks from them when I am giving as a gift.

They have pre-packaged gift boxes, other gift items that are non-chocolate, and several display cases full individual of chocolates sold by weight or by piece. A few tables are inside where you can stay to enjoy your beverages and treats. Once the line had died down, there was only one staff member working the counter, we made our purchase and headed back to the car. The chocolate is indeed very tasty. Smooth chocolate. Good flavor balance. One small piece is very satisfying. If you love a good chocolate, you will agree the price matches the quality. Worth a stop.

Once upon a time it was a lovely, decadent little shop and we looked forward to indulging in chocolates for our Tanglewood visit. Not anymore. For the last 4 years, the service has been poor and they are out of chocolates on a regular basis. After 2020, they asked for patience which we gladly gave but they adopted dismissive staff and a lack of customer care as standard operating procedure. If you go, be prepared for disappointment.

This shop is amazing! So many beautiful, handmade crafts in one space. Prices are very reasonable…read more This is a hidden jewel in the Berkshires. My plate with inlaid fern design is stunning. I use my microwave bowls every day. There were so many to choose from I had trouble making up my mind, so I had to get 3. I was pleasantly pleased by the prices. They are reasonable - much better than on the Internet or even from other shops in the county. You HAVE to see this place. No matter which way you turn, there is some beautiful and fascinating to see.
