Restaurants in Northampton

“Well it's a steak and cheese franchise. Your expectations should be based on this fact. The bread is quite good and the steak could have been more. The overall sandwich is very tasty and we'll made.”

“Went to this place today while visiting my home state and this place is off the frickin chain! Awesome food and friendly staff. Highly recommend!”

“Quaint pizza shop, great for a quick slice. Nice selection of pizza for lunch. Chicken, bacon and ranch slice was delicious. Crisp crust and a generous amount of toppings.”

“Have not been there in a few years , but they always had excellent drinks.”

“This bar is really something special. The staff members are completely lovely - so friendly and conversational and generous. The ambiance is more sophisticated than you’d expect to find in Northampton, without being even the slightest bit pretentious. The drinks are fantastic, and the pizza (when they have it) is top notch. The non-alcoholic cocktails are incredible, too!”

“There are some restaurants in the area we visit more in the fall and winter months - not the least of which is Noodles in NoHo. We stopped in for lunch today and as always the spring rolls, soup, and rice bowl were the perfect meal for a cool almost-fall afternoon. I’m a big fan of their coconut-based curry soup with udon noodles - it makes me feel as though my whole body is smiling with contentment. We’ve tried most things on the menu and all of them are superb. And on those cold, damp, blustery days ahead nothing beats their spicy offerings to warm you up!”

“They are always friendly and welcoming, and the sushi is incredible, fresh, diverse and unique.”

“Fantastic gourmet yet healthy food. Nice atmosphere. Great service.”

“I highly recommend Joe's Cafe in Northampton for several reasons. First and foremost, they serve the best pizza in town—it's simply unbeatable! The atmosphere at Joe's is welcoming and cozy, making it the perfect spot to enjoy a meal. What truly stands out, though, is the staff; they are incredibly friendly and attentive, always making you feel right at home. If you're looking for an enjoyable dining experience, Joe's Cafe is the place to be!”

“The best! We've been coming here for years. Healthy, fresh, yummy food at a great price. Owner is super nice and sets a friendly, cheerful tone. Our family's #1 pick in Northampton.😀😀😀👍”

“Amazing staff and food.
Casual and friendly.
Definitely stop by when you are in area.
This was my grandmother's favorite stop,
And it never disappoints.”

“My dad and I ate here last night before a show at Academy Music. Akasia was our server and we loved her. Our food was the best meal we have ever had together in all of our foodie ventures and we wish it was closer so we could go back. The steak tips were cut in house and resembled filet. The scallops were so good we got a second order. The salad was delicate but really great. My dad got the salmon and he is very picky on salmon, but it was incredible and he was delighted we made the choice to go there. I wish the oysters on the half shell were bigger, but the rest made up for it. My dad is in a wheelchair and everyone was super accommodating. Akasia was on point and knew we had a time crunch and accommodated that and also took some nice photos of us together. Great mock-tails and atmosphere was a 10. Hopefully one day soon we can make it back.”

“We just had a surprise 40th there for our daughter🎉 and it was great… Food was awesome, plenty of it, staff was great and the bartender was the best!!! Fun times and thank you all♥️ Judy S”

“Progression recently helped us host a rehearsal dinner the evening before our sons wedding. It was outstanding. We had about 25 people, including several vegans. Good good, good beer, good fun.”

“Best bread I’ve ever experienced! I drive an hour every few weeks to stock up my freezer and probably eat it every day. My favorite so far is the Country bread, but all are great Love the cookbook too, very interesting and enjoyable read for anyone who bakes bread.”

“Was in Northampton for the first time today and stopped in here! Great coffee, excellent service, and cozy atmosphere!!”

“Came here for dinner before a show. Service was friendly and quick. Food was good, standard Thai food in America fare. Plenty of vegan options. The fried tofu and eggplant dish was delicious and they make sure to ask if you want oyster sauce or not.”

“Catfish bites & Brussels sprouts are my favorites……”

“My wife and I are in town (from Birmingham) for graduation at Smith, and the sandwiches, coffee and staff were fabulous!”

“Love there drink selection”

“Really good Italian restaurant! Classy atmosphere without being stuffy... waitstaff excellent :) They even have gluten-free options! Great drink menu as well... desserts awesome 👌”

“Excellent food! I look forward to Eating there again !”

“What can I say? This restaurant is an institution. There is no Indian food like it in the United States. Truly authentic and delicious, extremely reasonable prices, perfect ambiance, and wonderfully hospitable. The staff are very kind, personal, and professional. Whether it be Kerala fish curry, puri bhaji from Mumbai, or tandoori chicken, the food covers a vast array of Indian dishes from many regions of the country, with the dinner and lunch buffet alike being plentifully tasty and fulfilling. The atmosphere of the restaurant itself is full of community, with many people, from college students to retirees, coming together to enjoy a feast under its roof. As someone who has a deep appreciation of Indian cuisine, I can honestly say that this is some of the best Indian food you will ever find. There are simply no words to do justice to the experience of eating at Bombay Royale and I could not recommend it more highly.”

“Incredible food and drink menu. Everything 10/10”

“Was there for the first time today was very impressed with outstanding and friendly service and the incredible / creative cuisine. I want to try more of the menu!”

“Amazing staff and restaurant with great food and top-notch service! Love them!”

“Perhaps the last remaining dive bar in Northampton. There are darts, pool tables, and affordable drinks. Though the food only consists of chips, they are awesome enough to allow you to bring your own (which includes ordering a whole pizza from down the street!)

Friday night crowd had a mix of all ages and all ethnicities. As a Black woman, this was one of the few times I felt comfortable in a late night establishment in this town. Cheers to Ye Ol' Watering Hole and its awesome bartenders! 🍻”

“I love ramen but when I have a really good ramen I have to rave about it. This place is amazing, and the bao buns were just as amazing. We’ve seen the same lady serving a few times and she’s so sweet! Me and my husband love this place and travel 30 min to it. Even when it’s hard to find parking it’s worth it!!”

“Went here today and got a Thai burrito 🌯 and it was amazing! Friendly staff and delicious food! 5 stars!”

“Irish Night was amazing! Excellent music, Traditional Corned Beef/Cabbage dinner, phenomenal raffle prizes. Great kick off to St Patrick’s!”

“The chef is an amazing cook who knows and loves the cuisine he serves to each table! I was disappointed with options in Noho for sit down service, so we were lucky to snag a table. While the atmosphere isn't overly creative, it is simple and bright, which further allows the food to shine. We ordered jasmine green tea with and without sweetener, both were delicious and piping hot. The scallion pancakes were fantastic, not overly greasy, and dusted with a delicious sweet sour spice mix. The noodle soup was warm and slippery, congee wet and flavorful, and the oyster pancake was crispy and fluffy. The textures and flavors didn't disappoint and I'd happily return for another meal. The menu is simple and without detailed descriptions, but once you know the dish, say congee, it's easy to make choices from options offered. My MIL struggled with lack of familiarity with many of the dishes, but happily tried something new when given an explanation. She raved about her tea and immediately went to the store to find a dupe, it wasn't comparable to the beverage served in house”

“Just had a great lunch experience here. Came in for just the day and had yummy drinks and awesome service from Stella! They pointed out other good/fun spots to go as well! Best part was the pretzel”

“I give five stars one of best restaurants that has awesome donuts and the only one that got the street dogs that got cheese, hot dog and the out side of it you can get few things on them”

“Wow, what a fantastic spot for a quick slice! From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted warmly by the owner, who promptly confirmed they offered cheese and pepperoni slices. Though I initially tried to pay with a card, they kindly informed me they only accept cash, directing me to the nearby ATM. Within minutes, my order of four slices, totaling around eight dollars, was served – one neatly packed to go, and the other plated for immediate enjoyment. To top it off, the owner generously included a complimentary can of soda. As I savored my slice, I couldn't help but appreciate the friendly atmosphere, even catching snippets of lively conversation from fellow patrons. A solid 10/10 experience all around!”

“I highly recommend this place! The food is great, prices are reasonable and staff are friendly. Also, I've never waited long for food to come out, even on a Saturday night.”

“Great place to give a try!!!”

“The food was so yummy I forgot to take pictures before we ate our food

I ordered the gravalax toast on sourdough. Was yummy

Then I ordered a side of corn beef hash. It was so yummy!! They make it from scratch in house.

My fiend had the chorizo which she said was excellent. My mom and brother had the eggs Benedict with corn beef hash.

The homemade potatoes with the eggs were perfect!

And the strawberry jam is house made too!
Nathan was our waiter and he was kind and helpful and attentive.

We will definitely come back again!”

“Love this place!! Haven’t had a dish I didn’t love! Burritos, tacos, enchiladas, and guacamole are my favorite! I hope to try the flan next time!”

“The Bluebonnet has an inviting atmosphere and a great wait staff, they’re always so friendly. And their pancakes are so good😍🥞 Best Diner in the area!💙”

“Recommended! New chef-owner. We ordered take-out: Hot and sour soup, cumin pork, mapo tofu and Chinese broccoli. Everything was excellent. The dishes were less oily and hyper-seasoned than at most places in the valley, which helped the flavor of each ingredient really stand out.”

“Great food! Great integrity!”

“I love this place and apparently so does everyone else!! The only downside is that it's always crowded. The wait is definitely worth it. The sandwiches are so good and fresh and there is a wide selection of baked goods and desserts to choose from. If you ask anyone in northampton where to get lunch they will suggest Woodstar.”

“Awesome service I just love Dunkin Donuts Coffee every day!”

“Yes, indeed. Had wings and fries.”

“Absolutely fantastic experience! Recently hosted a birthday party here, and everything was perfect—the atmosphere was warm and inviting, the drinks were amazing, and Kit & Leila went above and beyond to make the night special. Couldn’t have asked for a better spot. Highly recommend!”

“First time going to. Ordered a healthy sandwich and it was really good. Filling enough but not too much. Hot, grilled, perfect amount of insides. Very good. Would go back and that’s saying something for me.”

“I can't believe I haven't left a review before now. I have been enjoying Indigo Coffee for for over 35 years. I think they're the best roaster in the country. The best part of waking up is Indigo in your cup.”

“Love it! Looking forward to next ice cream season!”

“Tried the lemon mousse with homemade penuche- delicious! Gluten free and vegan options are easy to find: clearly labeled on the menu. Portions are reasonable! Cute vibes. Max and Mirna add to the sweet ambiance. Service was great- I tried to order caramel sauce, but our server recommended I get the homemade penuche, which had a similar taste; it was lighter and grainier than caramel but delicious! Very glad we stopped by here!”

“Great food and exceptional drinks and the best customer service you could get on a busy Friday night. From the wait staff to the owner, who happened to be the one to greeted our party and made it possible for us to have a table during a last minute misunderstanding 😊. we very much plan to return, and will make proper reservation. 😁”

“We always love to discover new, wonderful patisseries when we travel. Tart Baking Co is delightful! They have delicious strong coffee! We loved our cappuccinos! ☕️ the croissants ? were great! They have amazing Pain Au Raisin and Monkey Bread ? The sandwiches looked delicious! Service was quick, polite and laid back. Very cool vibe! Only a few tables and no dedicated parking. Street parking was easy and you can use an app to pay. No bathroom on premises. Delightful bakery!”

“This pie was a knock outta the park. I ordered the vegetarian pie, the meat lovers pie & the starr's pie with a house salad. Great customer service & great food. I will be ordering again when I'm back in town.”

“The food is awesome 👏🏻 🩷🥳🎉”

“If you have never dined here before, you are in for a surprising treat. The Culinary Arts Department at the Smith Vocational and Agricultural High School operates a student-run restaurant three days a week, Wednesday through Friday of most weeks, from 10:45 AM to 12:30 PM. The students, under the supervision of three chef instructors, learn every aspect of food preparation and service. There is menu service on Wednesdays and Thursdays and an all you can eat buffet on most Fridays, which is currently priced at only $15.00. The menu changes weekly and is posted online. This is genuinely one of the hidden gems of the Pioneer Valley.”

“Jaylene JUST helped me with my iced Black brown sugar coffee. She is the definition of superb customer service! I stopped here after having a very awful experience at the Granby location earlier this week... & now, I’ll make this my new location! THANK YOU!!”

“These folks are working really hard to bring a decent Jewish deli to Western Mass and it shows. Those being super harsh on them after they’ve only been open a matter of weeks might consider the many challenges they are facing and try them again as in my experience they are improving every day. Big ups from several visits on the knish, the babka rolls (totally yum), the deviled egg salad and whitefish salad and the whole Megillah sandwich. The bagels are decent for Western Mass but those expecting a real NY bagel might have to accept they really don’t exist outside NY. The rye bread is too soft and not rye-y enough. We liked the pastrami and again while it is better than you are likely to get elsewhere in WMass but not the best you’ve ever had - this is not Katz’s folks nor could it ever be realistically. But it is pretty darn good for a bunch of scrappy upstarts just getting things going. We plan to keep going and supporting them and hope they are able to make it!”

“Everything about GOMBO Nola Kitchen &:Oyster Bar is on point! I highly recommend you go, eat, drink and enjoy!”

“Brittni was absolutely incredible! It was my first time at The Deck and I will be back just to see Brittni, she was that good! Oysters were great and so were the cocktails but she was the star of the show!”

“Always friendly staff. Delicious food with lunch specials that are affordable and just the right amount. Today I went for the Thai Thai Beef. So good!”

“Excellent cuisine! Perfect atmosphere and the most perfect family to support.”

“I’ve eaten here twice, they are very kind and fast service. I can’t wait to eat here again. Namaste 🕉️”

“I’ve lived in Northampton for ~5 years but never tried this place. Had a gift card so tried it today- I just had the best egg sandwich I have ever had! It was delicious and well priced. And our server was kind and friendly. I will be back!!”

“Our Indian restaurant experience is very limited but I must say it was excellent service was spot on we enjoyed it”

“I recommend them because I’m not giving up on them just yet. With that said since the reopening after the pandemic the pizza has been over cooked to the point it is burnt to a crisp, and I mean to a crisp! The old chef has obviously moved on. The last two pizzas I picked up where barely eatable. The left overs were tossed. I used to be a Saturday night regular. The pizza was the best in town for YEARS. Now it seems it’s the worst. I’ll give them one more shot. Three strikes and your out! Replace the pizza chef or at the very least get them cooking lessons.”

“The atmosphere and staff were lacking . The tv was off and there was no music. Only one staff person and she had no personality, didn’t even acknowledge the customers as the waited in line. Food was still excellent”

“Lots of gluten free options and SO good.”

“Everything about this place is amazing ♥️”

“We order your Whopper with cheese, the best! Also order the Original Chicken Sandwich, problem is it’s thrown together poorly. A lame pice of lettuce, doesn’t even cover the chicken, mayo spread weakly. This happens ALL THE TIME. Please fix issue!”

“I’ve been searching for the perfect rose tea, and this rose jasmine green bubble milk Tea is the best I have found.
One thing I’ll never understand is why it takes so long to make bubble teas”

“Packards far exceeded expectations. Fried pickles came with 3 great sauces definitely recommend. Burgers are large and well seasoned. Duck sliders were tasty and the fries tasted very fresh. Super cool interior will try the pool tables next time. Definitely worth a stop when in Northampton”

“second time there, and there will be a third, fourth, fifth cetera cetera...☕”

“Me and my family had a fabulous time”
