About The Pillow Cafe

The Pillow Cafe offers a varied dining experience, with both hits and misses. While the chicken sandwich was described as fine, the hot sandwich served on refrigerated cold ciabatta was underwhelming. The service was generally good, and the food, including the fresh lobster roll and excellent Key Lime pie, was satisfactory. The cafe has an elegant flair, especially after the crowds leave, becoming peaceful and quiet as the sun sets, making it a lovely place to end a visit to Jacob's Pillow. Of the options available, the blue cheese salad and tasty flat bread pizza received praise for their flavor. The service is personable, often with a waiter+chef working together, though sometimes the server tends to disappear and does not check in regularly. While the lobster roll tasted good, it was considered overpriced for the small portion, even during lobster season. Despite some inconsistencies, the atmosphere during the "end of season" period seems a bit lacking in sophistication, with the cafe appearing ready for a break. Nonetheless, it remains a viable option for visitors to Jacob's Pillow ballet venue.
