The Prairie Whale offers a rustic ambiance in a historic house in Great Barrington. The interior is quaint and comfortable, with a lovely garden out front that adds to its charm. The menu is limited but features many great choices, including dishes like the Wagu beef cheeseburger with fries, grilled pork cheeks with sautéed veggies, and the Hake cake, which is smokey and delicious. The brick chicken is substantial and perfectly prepared, and the ricotta with toast and mortadella is a delightful option. The restaurant has an extensive wine list, and the cocktails are quite tasty and worth trying. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with friendly servers who make good recommendations. It’s a popular spot that often requires reservations, especially since the farm-to-table food is known for its awesome taste. The outside seating provides a pleasant experience, especially in good weather, and the live music inside adds to the lively atmosphere. The food is always fresh, local, and prepared in tasty and inspiring ways, with some diners noting that the chef’s skills are top-notch. Overall, The Prairie Whale combines a delightful atmosphere, excellent food, and friendly service, making it a favorite among locals and visitors alike.
