Don't let the no-frills decor fool you; what this family-owned restaurant lacks in style it more than makes up for in bold flavors, especially at dinner. Enjoy a menu of fresh and flavorful Peruvian favorites ranging from ceviche to plantains, and don't forget to grab a caramel custard for dessert.
Escape into chocolate bliss here, where even the aromas are intoxicating. This award-winning chocolatier offers wedges of decadent cakes, ice creams, and sorbets, and dazzling chocolates all made on-site. Whether you like your chocolate dark and pure, sugar-free—even with a chipotle filling—you can't go wrong. You can eat at one of a handful of leather couches or wooden chairs and tables, but don't expect so much as a salad or a wrap: it's all chocolate, all the time.
The best Mexican food in the Berkshires can be found at this unassuming spot where traditional cuisine meets local ingredients. The menu is small but every item is done well, and often served with side dishes in cute little tortilla cups.
Delicious food and good wine keep this small restaurant packed most nights. This gem can almost be missed just off busy North Street, but couples looking for an intimate date-night or professionals grabbing after-work drinks have made it a hot spot.
Just a short drive from the busy downtown you'll find this seasonal road-side food shack that always has a line of locals waiting to order the famous Box Burger with hand-cut parmesan and truffle oil fries. Fresh lobster and crab rolls, fish tacos, and pulled pork sandwiches with rhubarb barbecue sauce are the last thing you'd expect to find at this eclectic spot along a busy road out of town.
The tiny A-frame at the intersection of U.S. 7 and Route 2 isn't much to look at, but the bakery within sells delectable goods that inspire loyalty in locals and visitors alike. The babka—especially the chocolate, though there's also a cinnamon edition—is second to none and must be ordered a day ahead. It's worth the wait, but be aware that there is no place to sit inside and enjoy it.
It's not often you get authentic food from the Oaxaca region in southern Mexico served inside an old train station, but that's what you get at Antojitos. The owners of this establishment moved into the former Sullivan Station restaurant, bringing with them Oaxacan-style tamales, tacos, sopes, and huaraches.
Popular with college students for its reasonable prices, this restaurant serves up delicious food all day with especially good deals at lunch and the Sunday brunch buffets. The cooks do well with everything from tandoori chicken and other standards to the full Raja Thali dinner special, all served with a trio of flavorful chutneys.
FroYo lovers won't want to miss this locally crafted frozen yogurt made with ingredients from nearby farms, right down to the milk. Enjoy the tart, yet refreshing, Original flavor, or one of the rotating special flavors like Peach Pie or S'Mores. Vegan, dairy-free flavors are available, along with a bar of fun toppings.
Specialty pizzas at this trattoria go far beyond the usual toppings, from roasted sweet potatoes and fennel to pineapple and coconut: combinations are weird, but tasty. Baba Louie's fires up sourdough ground wheat, spelt-berry, and even gluten-free crusts in their often crowded, rustic interior.
Pastel-yellow walls, tall windows, a pressed-metal ceiling, and small-tile floors set an inviting tone at this stylishly modern French bistro with a long zinc-top bar from which it gets its name. The kitchen turns out expertly prepared and refreshingly simple classics, from steak frites to coq au vin.
Expect crowds—and, on busy nights, a wait—at this Railroad Street mainstay where dining room tables wrap around three sides of the large central sushi bar that offers an extensive menu of very fresh fish. Besides the sushi menu, dishes range from robata (charcoal grill) to katsu and tempura.
The raised seating area by the windows somehow adds a touch of class to this quintessential coffee shop where the art crowd hangs out. In addition to fine coffee, friendly baristas serve soups and sandwiches, as well as Sunday brunch alongside live music. Dessert nights are offered during the summer to help feed your cravings after taking in a show.
This upscale pub with a few modern dining rooms and porch seating is the perfect place to grab dinner if you're looking for something casual. The menu isn't large, but offers reliably good, but slightly fussy, pub standards.
This cozy Italian restaurant serves up traditional Italian dishes with an American touch. The pasta and homemade meatballs come in large portions and the staff is friendly and attentive; you can order family-style meals to share with the table if that's more your style. Don't skip dessert if you love a good tiramisu.
Not much has changed at this hole-in-the-wall including its single lunch counter lined with a small row of stools and its cash-only policy. Locals head here for inexpensive wieners and hamburgers, plain or topped with chili, cheese, or both, but don't expect to find a seat during lunch hour.
The open kitchen looks almost like a lunch counter at this no-frills corner restaurant known for good, honest Colombian food, where it's hard to go wrong unless you're a vegetarian. Served with chimichurri and plantains, all the meats are delicious, from the thin, perfectly seasoned chicken to the pork rind that bacon aspires to be.
Formerly known as Sushi House, this pan-Asian restaurant on the main drag offers up Chinese, Thai, Korean, and Japanese classics in a comfortable atmosphere. From curries and bibim bap to sushi and bento boxes, Meng's extensive menu has something for everyone, at an affordable price.
With a beautiful hilltop location and dishes inspired by local ingredients, the bistro can get crowded in summer, when Williamstown Theatre Festival ticket holders try to squeeze in dinner before the curtain goes up. With an emphasis on local and seasonal ingredients, the menu is always in a state of flux, but it's bound to contain steak, duck, and a great burger. Taste the creativity of chef and co-owner Nicholas Moulton who is a regular on Food Network's "Guy's Grocery Games."
This small-batch roastery and café also serves as an art gallery and community hangout. Stop in for expertly poured slow drip coffee or cold brew made with their own coffee bean blend soaked in cold water for 18 hours. Grab a quick breakfast or one of their paninis for lunch.
