I've tried most of food; everything not in the bakery is a total waste of money and is worse than from a grocery store. Baked goods are decent, if you're willing to go into debt for it. I'm sure you justify by using local ingredients- sadly, it doesn't show in the quality. Wished you used all the GMOs. And get ready to see every single person you know if you live in Williamstown and be unable to find a seat! It's delightful ;)

At first we thought this was a Cold War…read morerelic but on looking in detail we see that the Norad couple here is an old mill that today houses the cafe, a record store, a yarn maker and more! This is worth a quick stop just to take a look at some history. The cafe is just inside the main door. It is glassed in so you go in and order at the counter. The breakfast menu has many of the breakfast things on it that you might want and is reasonably priced. I ordered the breakfast sandwich with tots, Andrew had a breakfast burrito, and I don't remember what Jim had. I though my breakfast sandwich was excellent. It was simple with an English muffin, sausage patty, fried egg, and a slice of white American cheese. I don't know why American cheese color is regional, but it is, and that is what I expect here. Anyway, this was a simple yet delicious sandwich. The tots were ok but they were under a heat lamp for a while. Andrew enjoyed his burrito. The coffee was very good too. I recommend stopping here for breakfast, maybe lunch too.

Good ice cream, hit or miss food, seething hostility from the service…read more This place is convenient to Mass MoCA, tucked in by the main entrance to the museum building, just past the gift shop. Some signage would have helped, because we had trouble locating it on our first visit. The place can get backed up, especially when timed events are finishing up. Service is not slow when there are few people, but the kitchen seems to get backed up after a line forms. I had the black bean burrito, which was pretty tasty with cholula, and my daughter had a grilled cheese. The caesar salad my wife had was not so great, mostly due to the rock hard slabs of cold chicken breast. So, the food seems hit or miss. We really enjoyed the ice cream, house made with good flavors and served slightly soft. The service was deplorable, though it may have just been our experience with one server. The young lady taking our order was extremely rude and seemed very put upon having to take our simple, friendly order. She even disappeared mid-order to go stand idle somewhere else and it was unclear if she was coming back until I called out to her to which she snapped "I'm listening!" but it certainly wasn't clear that she was listening. I will always look past mediocre service and bad days - the service industry is tough - but the outright hostility is unacceptable in any social setting. Management should definitely be on top of this and take more care on who is placed in customer facing roles.

Luckily we beat the rush but I can understand why other helpers commented on the wait time and ordering process. We ordered the Mediterranean salad which was fresh and served with a scoop of mashed chickpeas, I hesitate to call with Hummus because I did not taste tahini and it was rather thick and chunky. Also a generous slice of tasty bread. We also got a bowl of the Ghanaian chicken soup which was fabulous!! The setting is light and bright into industrial, next to the gift shop inside the gallery.

This is a daily treat and on weekends too. Great if you're on a bike ride or driving to Rt. 2 or going into Williamstown or maybe heading into Bennington or North Adams and you just need a baked good fix. Worth the stop. Note that they have ice coffee during the warmer months. Soups in the winter. Special orders. Just ask. Great family business. read more

After 2020, they asked for patience which we gladly gave but they adopted dismissive staff and a lack of customer care as standard operating procedure. If you go, be prepared for disappointment.
