18 Best American Restaurants near Shelburne Falls

“The Blue Rock is lovely. Perched on a promontory overlooking the river, the dishes we had were well-conceived, perfectly cooked and presented. Cocktails were refreshing and flavorful.
We started with maiitake toast, which was gorgeous and in late September a great use of the wild-foraged bounty. We had the duck with cherries and pomegranate, perfectly-cooked, garnished with mashed potatoes and squash cooked two ways. The salmon with soubise sauce was nice (perhaps a tad more pureed onion would make it perfect?).
Because the Blue Rock is the only restaurant of its type open on a Monday, the staff was busy, and very friendly. We felt no pressure to turn the table over and it seemed that diners were happy to relax and converse over good food and drinks for the evening. We will definitely return to the Blue Rock. Reservations highly recommended.“

“Went to Yankee Candle then needed to eat! This place was a little over a mile away . What a gold mine!! Easy to get to .. great parking! Excellent service.. felt welcome the minute we stepped in the door. Food was delish at great prices!! The fries? Wow , crisp and hot through our meal. Definitely will be back!! I order the Commodore Sandwich.. one of their signature ones!“

“I got this like 4-5 years ago but the Wiener schnitzel was amazing! I also hate crinkle cut fries but somehow made them amazing as well. Ik what they put on it but they can tell you if they want. Gave the cook a hug afterwards cuz they were closing up she was super nice and I want to go back specifically for this again lol but to also try other things as well!!!“

“the new 2021 summer menu's awesome 👌. great venue for after activity food and drink“

“Overall it wasn't the worst restaurant we've ever been to but there were a few things today when we had lunch there that could be improved upon The server came over. welcomed us and told us the lunch specials. I asked him what the sides were that came with my special. he recited the sides so I ordered one of the ones he mentioned. my sandwich was good along with the truffle fries My wife ordered the quiche, but it was warm at best and for $17.00 it was small, the salad that came with it was average, nothing special I did order a cup of NE chowder for $9.00, no crackers served with it and had to eat it with a regular teaspoon, no soup spoon. by the time the server came back to ask how is everything most of my wife's warm quiche was eaten so she never was able to send it back to get hot When we received our bill they charged me $ 5.00 for the truffle fries that server said came with it.“

“We go to Applebee's a lot we enjoyed the service but there is one problem my husband is 77 years old he use a cane every time he goes into the man's room he ends up falling the floor is too slippery We complain but they can't do anything that's what they say“

“Fantastic dining experience last night at The Pint. Good food, great service, great beer and the best apple crisp finisher! Thanks PP! We’ll be back soon. 😊“

“Do to my job I couldn’t get there . It’s been like 7 years“

“Classic sugar house in an updated location. I’ve been going to the William’s family sugar house for 50 years back when it was on my parents street as Mt Toby sugar house. Today I had a nice pancake breakfast with the family, finishing with sugar on snow. They do need a bigger dining area - a lot of people hovering waiting for tables which takes a bit of fun away: But as a fellow small business owner I can say that’s a better dilemma to have than too few customers!“

“Just from my breakfast today, I can't recommend the new Freedom Cafe, aka Bonnie Bees, enough. The Irish Benedict was the best I've had. And I've had many benes in my life. The egg was cooked perfectly. Ho' made hash. Just the right amount of hollandaise sauce. Yum! Wifey had to compliment Jason the chef for his light and fluffy pancakes. Their menu has something for everyone. Looking forward to being a regular!“

“This place is always a great dining experience. We've been coming here for years and never been disappointed. Had the Carpet Bagger Steak at the recommendation of our server and it was fabulous! The pain fried oysters were lightly breaded and the best I ever had! You folks are the best!!“

“If I could give more than five stars I would. This is a great place. It has very good food, and the staff are very friendly and hardworking. I strongly recommend this restaurant to anyone living in the area or visiting. The iced coffee is excellent.“

“Service is always fast, and the food is good - my favorite is pulled pork and brisket with coleslaw. There’s not a ton of barbecue out here in Western MA, or southern Hampshire/Vermont and checking out if you’re local and haven’t tried it yet! Easy stop off 91 as well.“

“I brought some friends from out of town. My friend hat to tell the bartender how to make her drink. It was nothing out of the ordinary. The food was great. My biggest complaint was the loud music. We wanted to visit and couldn't hear each other at all. Please no music or tune it down alot!“

“I highly recommend this place. The food was amazing and the waitress was awesome! Makes you feel very welcoming, and just feels over all comforting(if that makes sense.) If you’re from out of town and looking for a bite to eat, I would suggest checking this place out!!“

“This was our second time back! We were absolutely blown away with their service especially considering how busy of a night it was! Our waitress Amelia was very kind and checked in on us often and made sure we had everything we needed. I had the seafood Alfredo which was perfectly seasoned and the sauce was not too rich! My wife had a cowboy burger which she also loved! We couldn’t help but to order dessert as well. We live right around the corner and will be back. Thank you for reminding us that good restaurants still exist. Warmest regards the Martin Family.“
