    Female bartender made one of the worst mocktails I've ever had. The mocktail espresso martini tasted like coffee dust and water. Definitely missed a few ingredients such as the syrup. Was apathetic towards us. The only redeeming thing about this bar was the nice bearded man who was kind to us even though he seemed tired.

    I always gotta hit up this spot when I'm in Northampton. It's unlike any other bar I've been to in that it's located in an old tunnel under the train station. The bar is dimly lit and cool inside, the walls are covered with thousands of sleek subway tiles. You can sit at the antique hardwood bar or take a seat in one of the old style armchairs for a more intimate seating arrangement. Service is fast and attentive whenever I've been. The cocktails are large and STRONG. I was buzzed after one Manhattan. You can order appetizers as well. I've had hummus and veggies which were fresh and delicious. Check it out, it's definitely a very unique spot!

    Pregame to Mulino's for dinner. Had a 7pm reservation so we arrived at 6pm for a pregame cocktail. It was packed but people were in and out often so seats were rotating and we got a seat at the bar. Quaint darker ambiance. Bartender were great and quick no waiting for drinks. Espresso Martinis were delicious...

    This is easily one of the best bars in America... certainly one of the best in the region. Every drink is expertly crafted. The service is excellent. The food is great. The ambience is wonderful. This is a bar to absolutely check out if you haven't already. The lion's tail is probably my favorite cocktail-- I think I get one every time. The cocktails are flavorful and balanced and just wonderful. Be aware, though, this is not a bar to attend if you are driving. Two cocktails is enough to require a cab! If you have not been here, you're missing out!

    Ive been to this bar on a few different occasions and every single time is an absolute blast! Drinks are always well-balanced and delicious, the food is always cooked perfectly and to die for! The truffle fries and pepperoni pizza are my favorites. As well as the "Jolly Rancher" drink! The service is always great regardless of how occupied they are, it has never taken longer than 5 minutes after sitting to have our order taken. The ambiance is like no other bar! Everything about the tunnel is so unique and beautiful, the bar is absolutely stunning with stone walls arching overhead! Cant wait to go back again and again and again! If i could rate 10 stars i absolutely would!

    This place has always been a vibe . Delicious martinis Service is always on point ( friendly ) Gets super busy on weekends and evenings I try to go during the afternoon.

    Cocktails were great, we had four different martinis and all were really well done, with no skimping, and the food was actually really good as well. Loved the vibe and the ambiance in particular, what they did with the tunnel. Service was OK, a little standoffish, but no complaints. Probably closer to a 4.5, but rounding up.

    Deserving of a visit if you're in the area. The martini's are fantastic and the service is attentive.

    Underground railway tunnel turns out to be a great bar setting.

    In Northampton, MA to see Gillian Welch at the Iron Horse and looking for a cocktail bar during our time in town: Tunnel Bar is top of the list for a great experience. We sipped exceptionally well-crafted cocktails (Manhattan and Gin Gimlet), beef carpaccio and fresh oysters. It wasn't the easiest place to find and had to ask around a bit to find the location but once found, well-worth it! Great service, atmosphere and fabulous deep leather chairs to enjoy a libation or two. 10/10 recommend.

    The last thing I want to do is admit that a cocktail bar in this area is good. I hate driving to…read moreEasthampton (not your problem), I hate parking in Easthampton (not your problem...maybe), and there're lots of places I'd rather be. HOWEVER...I've been to Gigantic at least three times now and I have to admit that going out of your way is worth it. The drink list is not huge, but it's never boring, changes often enough to keep me interested, and I don't recall getting anything less than excellent. If they're willing to do a "bartender's choice" type thing (I haven't tried), I might have to go even more often. To address some of the things that others mentioned: Yes, it's small, but lots of good places are. Yes, the drinks take awhile, but I don't know of ANY high-end cocktail place that can cranks them out. Get over it and enjoy your time there. I've never experienced rude or pretentious (anymore than that are always is) service, but that would annoy me. The server/bartender has always been quite nice to my friends and me. I also checked out their list of vintage liquors last time I was there. I didn't try any (because money) but the fact that they have them at all is impressive.

    Came here excited to try out the cocktails of one of the 10 best new bartenders in the country -…read morehttps://punchdrink.com/articles/best-new-bartenders-2025/ While we were not from the area, we were cautioned by several friends that Gigantic might not live up to the hype. What we did like was the old school music, vintage feel that took on the vibes of an antique shop (it was fun to look around), and the intimate setting. The cocktails were really good and creative with a menu that updates frequently and featured some classics as well. The cocktails were a bit pricey for what you got and for the area, the snack options were very limited and overpriced, and service was very slow despite few people being in the bar. We had to ask to be served and waited over 15 minutes for the check. We are glad we checked out Gigantic and would not recommend going out of your way for it as there are other great cocktail bars in neighboring towns.

The beer selection is the best I've ever seen in terms of quality breweries. Hill Farmstead is on the menu today (four different ones!) and there are so many others! The wine selection is ok. This is a beer place in my view. Food options are limited and all excellent. Some dishes can be made vegan if that's your preference but there's something for everyone and the quality is spot on. Tonight I had a tofu sandwich that was excellent another person had a kale salad and raved about it. There's something to be said for a place that limits itself to things it does perfectly and The Dirty Truth seems to be that kind of place. It also focuses on beer and food that are interesting and of the highest possible quality. IT's affordable and unpretentious and very comfortable for large and small groups alike. I think I'm coming here on every trip to Northampton. It's that good! See for yourself!
