Christine DaCruzApril 24, 2014I came for dinner and then the following day for brunch. The food is delicious. Do try the cauliflower curry soup and the roast chicken. Staff is super attentive and extremely efficient.
Casey AlbertJanuary 7, 2015I'm a local and I love the food here! Food is amazing although the prices are a little steep. I'm in love with their steak and red mashed potatoes. YUM! I recommend going here!
ChelseaSeptember 29, 2014One of the best meals I've had in a long time. Caprese salad, jalapeño corn chowder & fall vegetable flat bread were all killer. And that aioli with the French fries? The. Best.
Mike AOctober 15, 2013Nice, experienced bartender, Old Overholt in the whiskey cocktails, and you can NOT go wrong with a burger and fries. Excellent beers in tap, great view... Really, it's a no-brainer!- Yuval ZukermanJuly 28, 2018Great spot in North Adams. Good caring service and delicious food. Burger, Mac n cheese and tacos were great.
Maggie DelanoFebruary 16, 2016A must stop in North Adams! Great tap list, the beet and apricot salad was amazing. Scallops were some of the best I've had.
Alan MooimanMarch 25, 2019Don’t be afraid to order an off-menu cocktail. Solid bartenders. And the Mac and Cheese is excellent.
Jodi HiltonAugust 31, 2017Mussels with sausage meant that a normally healthy dish was rendered unhealthy and the sausage didn't really add anything but a distraction to the flavor of mussels. Fries were awesome though.
Ashley BSeptember 18, 2016Great craft beer list, accompanied by delicious burgers and bar food. Super friendly staff!
TaylorOctober 19, 2014Solid American food and craft beers, in a lively but low-key environment. Solid place in North Adams.
Jeff PetrielloJanuary 1, 2016Mediterranean pasta is a consolatory vegetarian dish. Stick to the flatbread (or just drink).- Visit publiceatanddrink.com for full menu. Exquisite craft beers, extensive cocktail list and food for everyone. A must visit in Northern Berkshire County.
Claire BowmanOctober 17, 2011Excellent cheddar burger. Overall Great value. Calamari is delicious. Fries and mashed potatoes have weird sweet aftertaste. Pork is also good.
ChristinaAugust 25, 2014Solid "New American" food that is satisfying and tasty but not exceptional. The kitchen staff seem to know what they are doing but floor staff appeared a bit overwhelmed at times.
If you are in the Berkshire, visit MASS MoCA and eat there! Great selection of beer too.
Doesn't matter what you get the chef is amazing everything he cooks is good
The fries come with this aoli dipping sauce... it's better then crack!
- Try the seafood chowder- specials list only, get it while ya can!
If they tell you a half hour wait, expect an hour and a half minimum
The food is delicious! But the service is poor and the workers are rather rude.

"Amazing space and exceptional because of its capacity to exhibit very large works and installations by contemporary artists. You will see things here that you won't see anywhere else."

"This is the best Supercenter I've seen in the country. Clean, huge and there is not anything they don't have. Props to Walmart!"
Rev. Dr. CJ Gagné - 6.2
"Burgers are excellent. Also, for the healthy options, try the Arugula salad with grilled salmon on top. Yum."
