37 Best American Restaurants near West Hatfield

“The food is wonderful here, and reasonably priced considering that it is top quality, unusual, so well and freshly prepared, so thoughtfully plated and served. I had fried oysters as an appetizer and the venison as a main. We shared a caesar salad. He had the blackened fish and an appetizer of cod and lobster on toasted brioche. It was all very good (I liked my dishes better). The servers were really good too, extremely attentive and kind. The pace of the place was nice- relaxed but not a big lag time between ordering and eating. If you don't mind a loud restaurant, then by all means check this place out; it's great! I told the server that I was not happy about the noise and she seemed to understand, and I did not feel sorry to mention it. That kind of atmosphere is not for everyone, and certainly not for someone who does not drink alcohol, and also has sensitive hearing. We discovered that speaking in low tones helped us to communicate through the noise, but it could not neutralize the bombastic cheer of our fellow diners, a few of whom were gifted and prolific orators.“

“Great food but should be called the Tuesday through Saturday operation. I wanted a hamburger on Monday and felt misled by the “daily” bit because it’s not a daily operation, it’s a 5 day operation and not a normal work week even. Helpus autistic people out. Also, could do better with seating and guidance because it’s a chore finding a place to sit with your party. Needs a host/est/zer to manage tables and seating.“

“Our favorite restaurant in the region. The fried chicken is classic. The lamb shoulder was perfect. Their quality is consistent. We so glad the owner-employees have sustained the quality so well. We took a chef in our family there - he raved over it. We'll be back!“

“First time there and we really enjoyed it. This is not a full table service place as you order at the counter and they bring it to the table. The food was delicious and the staff was very friendly. It is a little small inside but nicely set up. We look forward to going back!Parking: There were plenty of spots on the street.“

“This is a quirky place. Very limited menu. There are only 6 dinner choices plus an additional couple specials. It wasn't easy to find something for everyone but the food we chose was excellent. We had fried chicken and biscuit and the dumplings for apps. Both were very good. I ended up with the braised short ribs with a fried potato cake. It was really delicious. The potato was outstanding!! My husband had crab cakes and roasted potatoes, which he enjoyed. The wait staff were great. Super friendly and they were all dressed cute with space buns in their hair. They definitely enhanced the experience. I wouldn't rush back just because there aren't enough choices but the food is quality and what we had we really enjoyed.“

“DELICIOUS! Let's start with the amazing tomato concoction that comes with the bread. I could eat that every day! The fish was delicious but OMG the scallops! Cooked perfectly! Our server was Fatma and just incredible. Her smile was very inviting and friendly. She interacted with my daughter who was here for a college tour so nicely. She was professional but also made us feel like we were interacting with a longtime friend. Thank you!“

“Never been before to Johnny's bar and grill went for the first time for my brother's birthday, great place to spend an evening dinner with family or friends. They have a really good menu for everyone. Great atmosphere and wonderful staff.“

“This is a time capsule retro restaurant that's actually really good. Who serves veal Oscar anymore? But it was great! Service was cheerful and attentive. We arrived early and the room filled up with locals as we ate. A great experience “

“Sitting in Progression right now, listening to some tasty light jazz (no cover, btw:). As always, the taproom manager, Chris, is omnipresent, making sure everyone is happy as possible. The staff is always so friendly and it creates such a great atmosphere (shout-out to Brittney).I am a beer snob, and let me tell you, all the styles are at the high end. Mostly wonderfully hoppy IPA's, but also a lovely Kolsch, and terrific stout are available today. There are even 3 different hard seltzers for the non beer lovers out there.Food is pub style, of course. The menu is a bit limited, but top notch.Highly recommended for a fun night out that doesn't break the bank“

“I hosted a surprise 30th birthday party here and I cannot say enough good things about it. Jon, the owner, was extremely helpful, professional, and flexible with all of my needs. The food provided for the buffet was AMAZING and the atmosphere was all around 10/10. I would recommend JJs to everyone! Especially if you’re looking to host an event.“

“Ate late breakfast there today, February 28. I am celiac so was grateful there are GF options on the menu. I was going to order the huevos rancheros but our server, Connor, checked with the kitchen and they could not guarantee that the corn tortillas were gluten free. I am very grateful to our server that he took the time to make sure I would not be exposed to gluten. I ordered the eggs in purgatory instead and it was delicious. My husband ordered the breakfast burrito and said it was great. Thank you to Connor for taking good care of me. Going out to eat with celiac disease can be anxiety inducing and Connor should be commended for his care.“

“Wheelhouse catering was one of our best hires for our wedding. I am gluten free and finding a caterer that would do a 100% gluten free wedding was something at the top of my list. I had narrowed down my search to a few and Wheelhouse stood out to me with both fair prices, great communication, and I really felt like they cared. Better yet they didn't upcharge me for it, which is something the GF community is sadly more than use to. Our custom dishes were delicious, we even had a Nasi Lemak which is a traditional Malaysian dish (where my husband is from). My husband was very impressed at our tasting as were the other Malaysian guests at our wedding. They clearly did their research!Our wedding had many guests with their own allergies including dairy, walnuts, peanuts, garlic, onions, and so much more. I had one guest who couldn't have a single dish we designed and they called ahead of time to custom make a dish that was safe for them that they would enjoy! Every single guest was spoken too by the staff and was individually brought out their plates. I was told by so many people how great, cared for, and safe they felt eating their food. As someone who has lots of anxiety around food I absolutely loved hearing that.Wheelhouse was great from start to finish. Designing the menu, the tasting, the logistics, the food, the service and clean up. They truly went above and beyond. I couldn't dream of a better caterer for my wedding.“

“It had been a dream of mine when i was young to own my very own grilled cheese food truck but I was told time and time again how silly and unrealistic that would be...I write before you now an experience that proves that you shouldn't stand in the way of others dreams. Not only was the demeanor of the staff very down to earth and overall extremely pleasant, I found myself smiling through out the entire experience. The smells, the idle chit chat, Cheesy Street Grill is a great reminder that some of the most out of the ordinary places hold the best experiences.The food, absolutely exquisite, completely matching the pleasantry of the atmosphere. It's not often I find myself smiling at a meal but something about this sandwich felt like home. That one welcoming thing after a long and tiresome day.I highly encourage taking a stop here to remind ourselves that sometimes, we all need to take a break and do something wonderful for ourselves, even if that thing is just enjoying a nice hot meal.“

“Found this place a couple of years ago, great breakfast with a fair price!! Service is always good, don’t have to flag a waitress down for a coffee refill. Only negative thing would be it’s a small restaurant and seating inside can be snug sometimes.“

“Hadn't been here since it changed owners. We were really happy with it. Service is absolutely top notch. Food was great. The menu is totally fresh and new. And they haven't messed with the charm of the original decor. We'll be going back soon!“

“I highly recommend Fitzwilly’s Restaurant. The staff is exceptional, providing excellent service. The value for money is outstanding, and the dishes, particularly the onion soup and the fish, are absolutely delicious. We will definitely return there next time!“

“We had drinks in the Mick before dinner . Great bar lots of friendly staff. Asia greeted us as we entered and what a upbeat positive person! She checked on us a few times during the night we felt special. She is definitely the first person you want to meet. Bartender was awesome, I don't remember her name, and even though busy chatted up all the patrons w her favorites on appetizers and drinks. Raliegh was our waiter and he was knowledgeable in the menu answering all our questions. He always showed up just when we needed him a sign of a seasoned waiter. I had Chicken Pot Pie and it was beyond delicious. It's served in a cast iron pan with a flaky crust and mashed potatoes incorporated in the filling . A slice of heaven... a large portion so go hungry! My husband had filet mignon au poivre cooked medium rare to perfection. It was delicious definitely need to be a pepper lover. He had a smoked bourbon after dinner drink which Raliegh explained all that went into it. If you order this drink let it sit a bit before you drink it. We passed I. Desert as we were so full . It's a great restaurant the staff work well together helping each other out . We loved it!“

“Stopped for an early lunch. Some of us enjoyed breakfast and some of us enjoyed lunch. Our food was delicious and very hot. Our service was friendly and fast. The coffee was warm and delicious. The kids loved the farms ambiance. They have a mural that quotes bad reviews and the kids got a kick out of it.“

“The wine pairing dinner was great. The food and wine was just what we were looking for. The seating arrangement was no good. I went with a party of 4, and our purpose was to catch up with each other. We were unaware and did not like the one large table with all parties sitting next to each other. We are unable to have conversations with each other.“

“A true farm to table dining experience in the Pioneer Valley! My wife and I have been going the Blue Heron for years and always have a great time. The service and food is consistently excellent with ingredients from local farmers. Blue Heron offers an upscale dining experience and is very close to Mount Sugarloaf, Tree House Brewing Company, Yankee Candle and more! I highly recommend the Ricotta & Honey small plate and Curried Vegetable Tian although there isn't anything on their menu I wouldn't try. The Chocolate Truffle Torte with espresso ice cream is a great way to finish a perfect meal!Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options never tasted so good. I am not sure if it is available all the time but the Curried Vegetable Tian is fantastic!Dietary restrictions: While they offer a wide range of choices, many are gluten-free and vegetarian or vegan-friendly.“

“Top notch restaurant with first rate cuisine/cocktails and a nice, casual atmosphere. The food and drinks are comparable to what you would find in West Hartford or Newbury St. in Boston. Even the chicken breast, which I have seen far more expensive restaurants struggle with, was cooked to perfection. Honestly, if they were in NYC, they would probably be Michelin rated, they're that good. If Northampton can get a few more restaurants of this quality, it might just become a dining destination.“

“Whenever my mom and myself have a day together we usually end up here for a bite, have been coming here since I was 15 and am now 58! I miss the original owner but the new employees are keeping the tradition going! He would be proud! Love the pizza tastes like no other!“

“Had a great night on a date with my beautiful girlfriend. We were quickly sat at a table by the window and caught a beautiful view of the sunset. Our waitress was friendly and did a ok job. The smoked wings are really darn good. Have plenty of leftovers to enjoy tomorrow for lunch.Dietary restrictions: My lady is highly allergic to gluten and she was perfectly fine after dinner“

“We received a gift certificate to Glendale and thought we try it. The food was delicious and the service great. Sat at the bar. They had someone playing a guitar in the bar, which was very nice. Prices are a little steep, but worth it considering the quality of the food and atmosphere.“

“First time here and VERY impressed. It's very clean and the staff were excellent. Our server, Kailey (sp?) was a gem. Cheerful and professional and attentive. She recommended a Reuben Dip appetizer and it was delicious. Great atmosphere, food and staff. We'll definitely be back - and HIGHLY recommend Amy's place!“

“We cannot say enough great things about The Log Cabin! We had our wedding there at the Upper Vista last month and everything was absolutely perfect. Nicole was so helpful and attentive to us throughout the entire experience of planning and especially last minute prep and organizing. You truly can tell how experienced she is through her knowledge and ability to help keep you calm and navigate any situation. We also had an amazing day-of coordinator, Jim, who went above and beyond for us. All of the staff were so pleasant, extremely attentive and they made sure everything ran smoothly and was just as we wanted it. The guests have not stopped raving about how delicious the food was and how beautiful the entire venue was. We're attaching some photos here to show just how beautiful the view is (our wedding day was 10/21/23). Highly recommend everything about The Log Cabin!“

“Small restaurant with friendly staff. Chicken & waffles were delicious. Chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy inside.Mac & cheese, brisket and pulled pork were excellent. My husband requested a chicken sandwich that wasn’t on the menu. The owner happily obliged. He said it was the best chicken sandwich he’s ever had. We will definitely return and would highly recommend. Support small business!“

“Hadn't been here for years, but stopped in late on a Saturday afternoon after a horrible experience at a nearby restaurant. We sat at the bar and had excellent service (Matt) and a great choice of food. We were all 3 happy with our meals and looking forward to going back.“

“GLUTEN FREE! HAS A DESIGNATRD GLUTEN FREE FRYER! GLUTEN FREE CUPCAKES! GLUTEN FREE ALMOSG EVERYTHINGWheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp and plenty of space for manoeuvring period I forgot to look at the size of their bathroom door though though so you might want to call ahead and ask them if they have a handicap bathroom“

“Foods pretty good but can get loud from tables being very close together and acoustics being wonky.. wife and I had fun cupping our hands behind our ears to have a conversation ... live music is very nice though! Hostess forgot to assign us a server and we waited at the table an additional 30 minutes on a busy “

“I’ve been here twice now and I have enjoyed it each time! I got blackened fish tacos which were to die for, they did them so well. It was hard not to get them when I went the second time, but I got the salmon instead and was not disappointed. It was cooked perfectly. Broccoli was steamed quickly I think and then also browned off, but still had a bit of crisp to them. Also got the Brussels sprout appetizer and we devoured them, they were amazing! I have not gotten so excited for a vegetable before. The service is always friendly. I will surely be coming here again and again.“

“OMG There is overpriced and then there is insult to injury. $7.25 for a 2 shot latte is just insane, and according to your menu board makes no sense since a 2 shot large latte is 6.2?. The place was packed so maybe I am just insane. The latte was warm and had bubbles in the milk. Teach your employees how to think outside the box when charging , all that had to be done was ring up a large latte and note 12 ounce cup.“

“Played there for the first time this year and we were so pleased with the condition of the course and greens. The staff was very accommodating and friendly.. from the starter, pro shop and restaurant! We booked our tee times on line with a hot deal, so $50 per person for 18 holes and cart was a good deal. The course doesn't look difficult on paper, but it offers a lot of interest for all levels of player. We will sure to be back, even though it's an hour from home in Connecticut!“

“My favorite place to get lunch! The food is delicious and very generous portions for a great price! Bartenders are awesome and know their customers as if they were family! When I walk in I'm greeted with a smile and everyone who frequents there makes a point to learn your name and say hello! It's a easy going atmosphere for lunch if your looking for a nice place to eat without to much commotion but if your looking for fun and entertainment come back for dinner!On Thursdays they have live acoustic performances and Fridays DJ joe if your looking to dance it out with friends and Saturdays they have live music with great bands, also karaoke the first and 3rd Wednesday of every month!“

“My husband and I went on a date night and we had a wonderful time. The view of the river is beautiful, the restaurant looks great outside and inside. The service, the atmosphere and the food were amazing. We are going back.My husband and I went on a romantic date and we had a great time. The view of the river, the restaurant, the service and the food were all wonderful. We are going to come back.“

“Great ambiance, nice big booths throughout. Very 50's dinerish inside and out. Many awesome options to choose from both breakfast and lunch. They have a really cool page in the menu of alcoholic milkshakes and other fun drinks that are infused with alcohol as well. I had the chicken salad and smothered tots. It was all fresh ingredients in the salad and it was delicious and the tots...amazing! Must try the tots if you go.“

“We went out last night to celebrate our anniversary and it was a fantastic time. I need to put a shout out to Lilly who helped make so enjoyable. The food is always great but when have a server that is great at what she does it wraps up the night. Thank you Lilly for your wonderful service.“
