From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm and inviting -- rustic yet refined, with a…read morecozy New England charm that makes it perfect for both date nights and relaxed dinners with friends. The staff were genuinely welcoming, attentive without being overbearing, and clearly passionate about the food they serve. The menu highlights locally sourced ingredients and seasonal flavors, and you can taste the freshness in every bite. The dishes are thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented. Whether you're ordering seafood, steak, or one of their creative vegetarian options, the flavors are balanced and satisfying. The cocktail list is equally impressive, with well-crafted drinks that complement the menu nicely. What really sets Homestead apart is its consistency and attention to detail -- from the quality of the ingredients to the comfortable ambiance and polished service. It's the kind of place that feels special without feeling pretentious. If you're in Northampton and looking for a restaurant that blends farm-to-table quality with a welcoming atmosphere, Homestead is absolutely worth a visit.

Another great visit to Progression. I used to be all about the other brewery down the street but…read moreProgression has leap-frogged to the top preference. Nice comfortable venue with excellent beer and very friendly and helpful staff. Decent location and parking is just as brutal here as it is anywhere else in town, so if with a group maybe plan to drop them off in front and go find a space somewhere. I lean toward the IPAs but we also had a Plum Berliner which was excellent. Of course we brought a case home! Highly recommend this one!

They make planning very easy. The space is gorgeous, they have a semi-private space which is perfect for us and they have on-site catering. They have live music, that salt shuffleboard game and some arcade games too. There is a parking lot directly attached which is super convenient. We tried the kolsch and margarita sour and were blown away by both.

The beer selection is the best I've ever seen in terms of quality breweries. Hill Farmstead is on the menu today (four different ones!) and there are so many others! The wine selection is ok. This is a beer place in my view. Food options are limited and all excellent. Some dishes can be made vegan if that's your preference but there's something for everyone and the quality is spot on. Tonight I had a tofu sandwich that was excellent another person had a kale salad and raved about it. There's something to be said for a place that limits itself to things it does perfectly and The Dirty Truth seems to be that kind of place. It also focuses on beer and food that are interesting and of the highest possible quality. IT's affordable and unpretentious and very comfortable for large and small groups alike. I think I'm coming here on every trip to Northampton. It's that good! See for yourself!

Came here with a bunch of friends on a Sunday night and we're quickly seated without issue…read more We started off with a pomegranate cider and another cider, which I can't remember We ordered the Crispy Chicken Cobb Salad, Chicken Caprese sandwich, the cowboy burger and fish tacos. The Cobb salad was really good, and came with a lot of toppings! The chicken was crispy to my liking. The cowboy burger came with barbecue sauce, bacon, Krispy, and fried onions. Everything was really good and came out quick. Although we didn't want anything off the specialty Valentine's Day menu, there was a lot of limitations for such. Our server was a little slow in coming and checking on the table but other than that everything else was fine

8/23/24: Absolutely obsessed with the roasted peppers and corn ribs. The corn ribs were 10x better…read morethan the bar in Tarrytown, NY that introduced me to the idea of corn ribs which was a welcome treat because I LOVE this trend/idea. This time I got the braised pork and polenta and this one is on me because I don't usually like braised pork or polenta too much but it sounded interesting and I wanted to try it. It wasn't my favorite but that's more about my taste than anything. The peach crumble was absolutely spectacular and I'm glad they learned from last time and made the ice cream sweeter (the creme fraiche on the dessert I got last time was not sweet whatsoever). Can't wait to see what's on the menu next time I'm here! 7/3/25: God, I love it here! This year, I got two mocktails, the ruby Tuesday and orange lovely, because I couldn't choose and loved both of them! Then I started with the pickled carrots which were absolutely delectable. The turmeric honey and chili oil sauce was absolutely PERFECT. If I wasn't worried about social standing I would've licked that plate clean. I never thought I would enjoy eating carrots so much. Then came my queso mac and cheese that I took myself I would only eat half of so I could take the rest home and not hurt my stomach but I couldn't help myself. This was one of the best mac and cheese I've ever ordered at a restaurant. It was made with cotijia, had tortilla chips and cilantro in it with onion on top to pull it all together. Chef's kiss. I had to get dessert since I only come once a year and this orange almond cake was SOOOO GOOOD ughhhh I wish this restaurant was in Westchester I'm an avid nuts-in-dessert hater and this cake had me eating spoonfuls of almonds. I think they converted me. It was so moist and sticky and beautiful and the almonds were perfectly toasted and crispy without being like chewing on rocks. I am obsessed. 10/11/25: Back at my favorite restaurant! Got to have some new variations of the great things I loved in the past: fire roasted peppers (this time with ricotta!) and pickled carrots with turnips. I also got the orange lovely again because it was favorite of the two I got last time. So yummy still! I also got the general tso cauliflower and it was so good but also spicy!! Now this butter braised tomato soup was absolutely fantastic. Best tomato soup I've ever had. And the plum galette was perfection. I really have no notes because as I keep saying, everything I ever get from here is absolutely fantastic.

It's a great little spot with a lot of character, the kind of atmosphere that feels lived-in in the best way. We started with the garlic dog and it was fire, like instantly regretting I didn't order two. The burger was great too, cooked right and super satisfying without trying too hard. But the chicken milanese sandwich stole the show, and I don't say that lightly. Absolutely unreal, the kind of sandwich you keep thinking about later. Everything came out quick, the staff was friendly, and the whole place just felt easy and welcoming. Definitely coming back next time I'm in the area.

Was getting late 8:30 ish ? Stopped in for a drink and decided to get a little something. I asked…read morethe bartender about the oysters . I said I like them larger , he recommended a certain kind, he even read off his little computer that there around 3 inches around . The biggest they had . Well they were the smallest oysters I've ever had . Maybe 1.5 inches if you stretch them . No brine , no flavor . A waist of $18 for 6 . So then I get the kobi beef hot dog with fries $12 and I didn't want the fries , still $12 for the hot dog and the bartender looked to be eating my fries . Better than throwing them away I guess ? So $30 for some lousy oysters and a hot dog . Drinks were good . My GF got a chicken salad and again , she got the better meal . Plus a few drinks $90+

Food was all fairly good, even the kids grilled cheese. I had the pulled pork po'boy which was more of a Cajun spin on the meal and was excellent. We make this drive a few times a year so we will definitely keep it in mind for the future. Only negative is I wish they validated parking since it's in the lot of the train station. $2 for the first hour, $1 for each additional. Not bad, but unexpected for a restaurant like this.

The latest review by 'Liz T' is one of the dumbest things I have ever read. I am a progressive, and…read moreI've eaten at Amy's many times. How absolutely ridiculous to sit there and try to sow political division in our community. There are many different types of people who live here, and discrimination is never okay. Yesterday, there were several absolutely normal families, a gay couple, a trans person, and your regular bar-goers. Would it be okay for Amy's to turn those folks away because a Trump lover cried about it on Yelp? Grow up. Anyway, Amy's has some of the best boneless wings I've had in a long time- it's so rare to find ones that are not pre-frozen or just full of cartilage. Their French onion soup is always a winner, as well. I think the atmosphere is pretty cozy, and there's always a game on if you're into that sort of thing. Either way- Amy's is a great local, American, community restaurant that really reminds me of the kinds of restaurants I used to go to when I was a kid. We'll be back for sure!

The beer list is a rock solid curation of high-quality regional craft beers and the cocktail menu is quirky and fun. I'm not the sort of person who drinks martinis that taste like cookies but that's super fun for some people, and I appreciate the diversity of choices that appeal to a wide range of people and their particular moments in life. I had a cocktail made with grapefruit juice that actually tasted identifiably like fresh grapefruit juice. The service was kind, attentive, pleasant and professional. The ambience was casual and easy going, and the place was clean and welcoming. So it is regrettable that having just discovered this perfectly nice place I will never set foot in there again. They serve Trumpists wearing Trump-fawning t-shirts. If that bothers you, you should not eat here. We moved tables, still couldn't bring ourselves to eat, packed our uneaten food, tipped well, knocked back the remaining beer, left a hundred dollars lighter, and will never return.* People can and do refuse to serve fascists. This business choose to serve them. Spend your money as you wish. * Yes, that's pricey for lunch but that's on us. We went out to have fun. It was a hard week. The prices were reasonable. We had cocktails, beer, an appetizer and an entree. Frugal people who aren't quite as desperate for a little fun could get away spending less, on the other hand, you may have to eat it looking at this guy.
