Restaurants near Monson

“Wasn't sure what to expect from this pizza place! No up to date menu online, website or much for social media presence, but after eating I appreciate what they are going for! Quaint, old school, simple, hole in the wall, but very clean inside. Most importantly though is the pizza and it was impressive! Can't remember the last time I ordered bacon on a pizza and got actual strips! The toppings were delicious and clearly fresh. I wasn't huge on the doughiness and density of the crust, but that issue luckily didn't carry over to the bread underneath the pizza itself. Truthfully, it wasn't enough for me to knock them down a star. Special take out place here in Monson.. will be back!”

“First time here, got a delicious latte and bagel with homemade veggie cream cheese! Such an adorable spot, friendly staff, they have merch and other items for sale, and lots of coffee and breakfast options. I will definitely be back!!!”

“The best tasting biscotti I had in a long time. Fresh, proper texture and taste as the real Italian biscotti would be ( I lived in southern Italy for years). I have purchased my fist package in Easthampton during their farmer market hours. Chocolate chip are the ones I’ve tried and I will try other flavors as well. I highly recommend them to anyone that is looking for biscotti that are not hard as a rock, but also not soft as regular cookies.”

“This might be the best food Mexican food I have ever laid my taste buds upon in my life. I got the carne asada bowl and a burrito. The food is so fresh and flavorful. The workers are very kind and respectful. And not to diss or anything but it tops chipotle and that is saying a lot. I LOVE this food.”

“The “Best” Chicken Wings around! 😋.... hands down! 😉👍🏽”

“From one baker to another, these cookies and the art on top are on point!! So easy to order and easy to talk with! Pick up was such a breeze! Thank you so much for making things a little extra special!! ❤️”

“We went for breakfast, the two women up front were so sweet. The lady turned on the witch for my baby to see, and even came out in the pouring rain to give her candy on our way out. They were closing early, but they were amazing to us even 30 minutes to closing when we came in. ( I didn’t realize they were closing early for the holiday.) The price and the service is far beyond 5 stars! Highly recommended stopping for a bite to eat. The food was just as amazing as the people working!”

“What a nice place to come and relax after work.The locals are very nice. I happened past this venue while on the way to a warehouse a short distance away; I walked up. When I discovered there was no food to be had, the patrons brainstormed and one fellow came up with a local Chin food joint that delivers.But here's the true blessing, that same gentleman , Rodney, bought me some food and refused to accept $$.. The following comes to mind from a very nice inspiring fellow TO WIT:" For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, "This is a truly a great place to visit.FMCSA disclaimer: alcoholic beverages were not consumed”

“We visited Mario’s for the first time on Friday Feb 27th after seeing a Facebook ad for their fish and chips dinner. We were beyond surprised and very pleased with the entire experience. The fish and chips was the best we have had, the waitress was very attentive and friendly. Although the place is small it was super busy with lots of take out orders but that didn’t affect the dining room orders coming out in a timely fashion. We most definitely will be visiting again real soon to see what other delicious choices they have on their menu. Great job Mario see you again soon.”
