This is one of the best restaurants ever. The wait staff are fun and friendly. Never had an order that wasn’t perfect. Exactly what I ordered. We go here relatively frequently and always enjoy it. The food is great, I highly recommend the original wings extra crispy. Also the fish and chips are amazing. Will always frequent this restaurant and always recommend it.

We come here often and tonight we brought friends with us. The food is always amazing and we always have good service, until tonight.
Our friend ordered a drink -a glass of whiskey NEAT. Every bartender knows that “neat” means no ice, it’s one of the first things you learn. So it was pretty obvious that our server never told the bartender. His drink was delivered on the rocks. She put it on the table and disappeared before he could say anything, so he removed the ice and put it in a water glass. When she came back and we told her, all she said was “Ok.”
One friend ordered 6 wings as an appetizer. She only brought one napkin. He asked for “more napkins” and she brought another one. His wife had a wing and also asked for “more napkins” and received one about ten minutes later.
I had ordered a dozen wings for my meal. They looked so good—nice and crispy as they should be, and saucy. Unfortunately they weren’t very warm. Someone came in to setup a table next to us so I asked her if they could just be thrown in a microwave for a minute. A couple minutes later, our server came out and said she was having them do a whole new batch. I told her that wasn’t necessary-I didn’t want them to go to waste, just nuke them for a minute and they’ll be fine. That’s all they needed. She said a new batch would be fresh. I told her again it was a waste and that I wanted to eat with my friends.
Meanwhile, everyone else was enjoying their meals. About 5 minutes later, she came back out and said the wings had about 10 minutes to go. I pointed out that everyone else would be done with their meals by then, she may as well pack them to go. A few minutes later she returned and said they had been able to switch some meals around in the kitchen and do the new wings quicker. She brought the wings in a container and gave us the Bill. They weren’t crispy at all and had very little sauce. I’ll put them in the air fryer. If only she had nuked the first batch…😞

The food exceeded expectations and so did the service. We had the best experience. Sadie took really good care of us. Just what we needed after a cold walk at the summit of mt greylock! Disregard any negative reviews.

In the area and decided to try the Olde Forge. They were in the middle of their October Fest weekend festivities but we were still able to be seated quickly. All members of our party ordered the German dishes, and everyone was extremely happy with their meal choices and the amount of food that was served. We are regularly in the area and will very likely be returning to try other dishes.

I called to ask about the wait for a table and the guy that answers the phone said “it’s October we always have a wait”. And was very rude. Needless to say we did not get food there.

Came here to eat lunch from out of town, my boyfriend has been going here since he was little and says it changed terribly. They must’ve changed chefs cuz goodness… we walked in and it INSTANTLY smelled like a public bathroom, the stench lingered throughout the whole place, it smells like straight up poop. They have almost NO gluten free items except for salads, i asked about gluten free bread and the waitress snarked at me and said no, I ended up eating a $16 salad (which is only an appetizer), it was not worth it, by the taste it should have been no more than $8. Basically just lettuce and watered down dressing with a dead sardine sitting on top. My boyfriend got a “medium rare” steak that was completely overcooked and the chunkiest “mashed” potatoes possible. A waste of $60. Our waitress only came over one time. We were hoping to have a nice lunch date… but we got this instead. I definitely wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

Had a great dinner at Olde Forge! Ate at the bar and the bar tenders were very friendly and helpful. We ordered the Buffalo cauliflower to start, some of the best I've ever had!

I was lucky enough to get one of their special Ribeyes. They only get 12 of these a week and it really was outstanding! They did a great job charring the outside just how I like it and keeping the inside a perfect medium / medium-rare.

Beers were cold, wine was tasty, price was right! Will definitely come back next time we're in the area. Thanks for a great night Olde Forge!

Great outdoor balcony. Enormous beer list and too many good items on menu to choose.

Hostess was no where to be found with 8 people waiting. Mind you, the tables inside were empty. When she arrived she only asked how many were in each party . When we asked her how long the wait was ahead said she was only taking names and could not give an estimate. The place was empty!!

We waited for a table inside at the good sized comfortable bar. The bartender was friendly and attentive and drinks delicious. Our server, Sadie, was personable and knowledgeable of the extensive menu. The steak was cooked perfectly and the portions are generous. There were also table available outside on the handsome deck but the weather was seasonably cool.
