Possibly the best farm to table around, which in the Berkshires, is saying something. Head over for a lingering dinner or sit at the bar for an amazing cocktail. Don't miss the Sriracha chickpeas...

Coffee roasted here in North Adams. Their other location (Spring St. in Williamstown) has a wider array of delicious baked goods, but this spot (on MASS MoCA's massive industrial campus) is quieter - a nice place to catch your breath and recharge before seeing some amazing art. You can buy bags of their locally roasted beans here too. The Mexican Chiapas is our favorite.

A great pub with a great fireplace in the winter and an outdoor fire pit in the summer. Their giant plate of nachos is a great snack to share for a group. Their staff is very friendly.

The oldest continuously run store in Massachusetts, the Store at Five Corners predates the Declaration of Independence! Their baked goods are to die for and their iced coffee is delicious. Try their homemade skillets, flatbreads, and sandwiches if you're looking for something heartier. If you have a sweet tooth, you can't go wrong with their pain au chocolat. If you're looking to bring back a taste of the Berkshires, the Store at Five Corners is a great place to pick up some local treats (from maple syrup to farmstead cheeses).

Excellent cocktails in a recently refurbished mill. The bartenders are friendly, the food is beautifully prepared, and the atmosphere is unbeatable.

Drinks & Nightlife

Stop in for a rotating slate of delicious beers brewed on site at MASS MoCA's historic mill campus. Taste the industry! Check their website for the current tap list. Some of our regularly appearing favorites are the Triple IPA, Red Ale, Gose, American Pale Ale, Mosaic, and ESB. Hot Tomatoes (a local favorite pizza place) makes pies to order at a cart in house.

Everything Else

Visit some very friendly cows and pigs. Be sure to go home with Berkshires cheeses made on site. The Maggie's Round is out of this world.

Pick your own apples from trees over 100 years old! They also have the best apple cider donuts we've ever tasted. You can buy them fresh in a waxed paper bag and eat them while you explore the orchard.

Entertainment & Activities

This cinema is 100 years old! Most movies shown here may not make it to the big chain movie theaters, but are worth seeing. Be sure to load up on popcorn with real butter and more than a dozen toppings to choose from.

Essentials

Great place for local meats, produce, and cheeses. They have a great bakery (huzzah for cheddar scallion biscuits and chocolate chip raspberry cookies!) and a great hot bar if you need a quick lunch. If you're packing a picnic before heading out for the day, this is the place to stock up.

The recent renovation by Tadao Ando is worth the visit alone, but an impressive collection of art encompassing Impressionism, Renaissance painting, and Neoclassical sculpture makes this a museum that is sure to please. Take advantage of the beautiful trails behind the museum for a peaceful hike and say hello to the local cows that graze there.

Sightseeing

Truth be told, we've never eaten here, but this is the best way to direct you to one of the best look-out points in the area. Referred to by locals as the "hairpin turn," it affords you a view for miles around.
