“Breakfast is outstanding.“

“My friend treated me to lunch today at the Hadley 110 grill. Our food was delicious, well made and nicely plated. We enjoyed the good food and we're delighted with the wonderful service our waiter Dave gave to us. He was attentive, friendly and very much a gentleman. Thank you Dave!!“

“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.“

“I absolutely love having dinner there. it's small and intimate and fun. there's also a pool table but the staff Is what makes it special.“

“very nice atmosphere, great food, friendly waitress.“

“Best bagel, egg, cheese and bacon sandwich I ever ate. Great popovers and clam chowder. We stayed at River Valley Inn for 2 days and ate at the Smithsonian Cafe and Chowder House 4x! No need to go anywhere else during our vacation! They also sell a delicious prepared Coffee Milk from Our Family Farm too!“

“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.“

“The owner and the manager and waitresses were very rude very unprofessional.My daughter in-law went there 2 years ago said the service and food was great My son and daughter in-law and I went there on Saturday 11-8-2025 It was about 15 or 20 minutes to order then when we did order we waited over 1hour 15 minutes to eat the food was luke, warm. My daughter in-law bit into a clam strip and thought she broke her tooth she was afraid to eat anymore we had seafood the way it came out the food was saturated from the frying oil like it hadn't been changed in weeks I had coleslaw that had a fish taste to it like it was stored with open fish in the fridge we asked to speak to the manager when she finely came over she wanted the food my daughter in-law spit out in the napkin so obviously. the manager didn't believe her I ask to have her meal comped the manager left never came back I asked to speak to the owner eventually The owner came over was disrespectful rude and very unprofessional, for an owner of a restaurant. first of all, the kitchen was backed up.He should have been in the kitchen helping the cooks second of all he shouldn't have told me to get out of his restaurant the way he did.....“

“We had our son's Rehearsal Dinner in the Amherst room on Oct. 23rd. Nothing short of amazing! Appetizers were plentiful and delicious, as was the steak, chicken and shrimp & crab scampi. Our server Karen was one in a million, she was two steps ahead the whole evening and a big part of the success shared by the wedding party. Thank you to all the staff for making it a magical night :)“

“The best Ruebens! Love The chili cheese fries!“

“Great ambience Great tasty food“

“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. 😊“

“Our 1st time here! We had a wonderful breakfast. The home fries were wonderfully and perfectly seasoned, poached eggs done just right and not too runny. The portions were fantastic! Our only suggestion is the waitresses need to ask about topping off coffee or designate one person to make a trip around topping off! Otherwise a great breakfast!“

“Stopped by for an early morning breakfast. One waitperson was there and she had it all under control. Service was efficient and the food cooked to order. Best of all, the waitperson was super friendly and welcoming to all the customers, many of whom seemed to be regulars.“

“Excellent Service, Excellent Food! The Philly Cheesesteak Omelette is fantastic.“

“Friendly staff and accommodating, food tasted great and was served promptly. The portions were filling and plate was presentable. $17.** includes tip for a western omelette.
You get to grab your own silverware, butter, jelly napkins, coffee yourself from carafe. Waitress just brings plate to your table and then you bus your own dishes afterward. It works, they probably don’t have the extra staff to wait tables properly. If you figure in the tip from a normal diner that comes out about the same.“

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

“From ordering to picking up our food everything went so smooth! We ordered the brisket quesadilla and than the pulled pork sammich from the lunch special and holy cow it did not disappoint. Great service, great prices and will definitely be back!!!“

“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!!“

“I’ve dined at Johnny’s Roadside Diner a handful of times over the last few years, and I’ve always had a good experience. It has been a year since I’ve been here and I came back today for brunch and I’m pleased to say that my experience was not good, it was outstanding. The food was tremendous, the service was excellent, the atmosphere was clean and under control, and it was really great to observe the productive flow of the team members & management, and the satisfaction of every other customer in the establishment during my time in Johnny’s. For a popular local establishment that serves a diverse variety of communities and college students, I couldn’t have been more impressed. I would recommend Johnny’s Roadside Diner to anyone who is looking for high quality customer service, excellent food, and a great experience with friends and family. I will be looking forward to returning soon!!!“

“How can I forget about this place where I could eat healthy with a number of exquisite varieties, located at Amherst College, what I loved is that once you are in the dining room you can eat everything you want, so it is worth it. in that sense.“

“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!“

“food is great, wait staff are always polite and very friendly, and if you meet Chuck the owner, you'll see why this is Turners Falls best breakfast/lunch place.“

“great craft beer selection!“

“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!“

“not sure about vegan experience but for vegetarians they have many options and are always willing to help with substitutions! my personal favorites are the fresh mozzarella melt and the quinoa bowl! my boyfriend’s favorite is the veggie burrito with pico Updated from previous review on 2026-04-10“

“I had dinner with a friend outdoors yesterday. Good tacos, cocktail was delish, everything was lovely.“

“The best Ruebens! Love The chili cheese fries!“

“Just recently visited the Hadley location and enjoyed the food and service so much that we decided to return. We had a great meal and want to give a shout-out to our server, Tim! He was attentive, knowledgeable and personable and had great timing. We really appreciate great food and great service and we got both! Thanks for a great dinner!“

“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!!“

“Very accommodating and friendly staff 🥰“

“Great pizza , service is excellent“

“Our server, Katie, was one of the sweetest and most attentive servers we’ve ever had. Additionally the food came out quickly and was both hot and delicious. Highly recommend this place, it’s similar to the chili’s down the road… BUT BETTER. (I got the southwest chicken bowl)“

“We were coming from thr airport and needed to catch a quick bite. I found out about this place a few years ago, but we never had a chance to go. I ended up getting the Santa Fe salad and a cup of chili because it was a chili kind of day. It had good flavor, but it had green peppers in it. Not a fan. The salad was good sized, so I ended up leaving with a box. My husband had the nachos. I tasted a little of the port, which wasn't bad. The portion was huge and he was loving the Carolina sauce, but there's a self-serve station so you can try them all. And they had to-go boxes handy, so you didn't have to ask the staff. Although they were quite friendly. Nice display of desserts next to the counter, but we did not partake this time. Lots of parking and some booth seating with a rustic interior.“

“good place. lots of beer.“
