14 Best American Restaurants in Northampton

“Really good food and a great beer list.
Edit 3 September: we had the pretzel again. This is probably the best pretzel I've ever had. It's hard not to just eat pretzel after pretzel and work my way through the excellent beer list.“

“Love there drink selection“

“Great food, great service! We love Notch 8 Grille!“

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

“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.“

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

“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.“

“Great chicken Caesar wrap!“

“The best place and nice people“

“The food and variety is good. There's an omelette station along with the other standards for a brunch. The day we visited, they had mini desserts; baby cannoli, cheesecake bites, etc... Not sure if that's the norm for the dessert station but it should be. I love, love, love how charming they've kept it.“

“My first trip here , but my wife grew up near it and had fond memories. Very friendly staff and my Monte Cristo was very good. Excellent old diner vibe with good solid menu choices. Well crafted foods and homemade sodas make for a filling lunch or breakfast. Don't miss out , go here!“

“The lovely server brought a bowl of water out to where we were sitting for our dog. We ended up moving to seats at the outdoor bar, stayed dry through a thunderstorm, and the atmosphere was great. Music wasn't too loud and you could have a conversation.

Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp up to the outdoor deck. There are two small steps up to the bathrooms, but there is a ramp to the employee entrance, so they may allow that to be used. Call to confirm bathroom accessibility if needed.“

“Everyone needs to experience Highbrow. You will not be disappointed. All meals are cooked to perfection and only the best ingredients. Menu has so many choices and fun kids meals as well. Very respectful staff and so kind.“
