The food here is incredible. However, the last time I was here I ordered a cocktail and was asked what quality of liquor I wanted in it. I said “whatever is fine” which I really thought meant well liquor, and I feel like that should be common knowledge. When the bill came, it turns out the bartender or server had given me top shelf liquor and my cocktail was almost $20. That’s just ridiculous, honestly.
Love this place. Great food, great drinks and very lovely staff.
Went with friends. GREAT food and atmosphere. Very welcoming people. Definitely coming back!

While reservations are recommended, it remains a local favorite. The staff is friendly and professional, going out of their way to ensure a positive experience. This upscale but casual restaurant offers stunning views overlooking Shellburne Falls. The crispy polenta and mussels are must-try starters, while the halibut and rack of lamb are cooked to perfection for the main course. The halibut is particularly highlighted for being juicy and fresh, served with a light lemony sauce, mashed potatoes, and roasted corn. The bartender is noted for exceptional drinks, and the wine list is well chosen. The restaurant's commitment to sustainability and support for local products make it a must-visit spot in the area. Customers often enjoy sitting on the porch overlooking the river, especially during good weather, and the decor inside looks amazing.

The staff is very friendly and welcoming, even on busy nights, making guests feel relaxed and comfortable. Many diners appreciate the relaxing atmosphere to enjoy good food and drinks, and the restaurant is highly recommended for both indoor and outdoor dining. Some dishes, like the ricotta dish, salmon, and burger, could benefit from a sprinkle of finishing salt to enhance their flavors. Overall, The Blue Rock provides a memorable dining experience with great views, tasty food, and friendly service.
