The Great Barrington Bagel Company & Deli

Let’s start with one of our favorite breakfast and lunch spots for you to kick off the day right. The Great Barrington Bagel Company & Deli is located at 777 Main St. and opened seven days a week, with different hours on the weekends from their typical 6:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. schedule. Naturally, bagels are their specialty, but you can get much more than just a bagel with cream cheese. Soups, salads, a ton of incredible sandwiches and even smoked fish, this is a great spot any day of the week.

GB Eats

A solid spot for all three meals, GB Eats offers breakfast, lunch, dinner, a selection of baked goods and a coffee bar. It’s a great culinary hangout all day long, open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m., except Wednesdays when they close early at 3 p.m. The restaurant is located at 282 Main St. and offers plenty of cocktails and other alcoholic beverages in addition to their wide variety of meals - including all-day breakfast.

The Prairie Whale

If you’re looking for something a little dinner focused, you might like The Prairie Whale. Only open from 5-10 p.m. Thursday through Monday, they specialize in dinner and drinks. With a full bar of natural wines, taps, bottles, casks and cocktails, you’re sure to enjoy your evenings here. They only accept reservations for parties of six or fewer, but their meals are absolutely delicious and we definitely recommend checking them out at least once during your stay. The restaurant is located at 178 Main St.

Baba Louie’s

Big fan of pizza? Baba Louie’s is an incredible pizza joint in town, specializing in woodfired, all-natural sourdough pizza. Located at 42/44 Railroad St., Baba Louie’s is open Thursday through Monday as well with different hours depending on the day. In addition to their incredible pizza - which you can also order frozen or as take-and-bake options to cook pizza at home - they offer several pasta dishes, salads, appetizers and beverages.

Moon Cloud

With an indoor lounge and an outdoor patio, Moon Cloud is an excellent destination for dinner and drinks. Open for dinner and cocktails from 5-10 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and from 3-10 p.m. on Saturdays, then for snacks, deserts and additional cocktails from kitchen-close to roughly midnight, we love nights out at Moon Cloud. The menu features a huge selection of snacky foods plus full-sized Tagliere Boards for dinner. Some of the favorite foods include cured meats, curated cheeses, all manner of veggies, tinned fish and even lobster rolls. Moon Cloud is located at 47 Railroad St.
