We appreciated the humor of a restaurant named "skinny coyote" so we decided to give this a try. This was the best Mexican food we have found in New England. My wife had crab enchiladas and I had steak stuffed poblano pepper with a tomatillo sauce. Both were presented beautifully and tasted great. Atmosphere is upscale. Service is very good, prompt and friendly. Coyote Flaco provides a wonderful authentic Mexican food dining experience.

We went for a quick breakfast on a Friday morning & the place was jammed! They can heat up a slice of Quiche for you or just enjoy the regular stuff most bagel places have. What makes Tunnel City better than your regular bagel joint is that it's in a beautiful college/ vacation town.

Normally I would never rate a Duncan Donuts because they are pretty much the same. This one stood out as having the friendliest workers. It first caught my attention when the window worker greeted the customer by practically singing a hello and welcome into the headset. "She's really happy" I thought. Then the person helping us told us to had a wonderful and pleasant remainder of the day and seemed as though they really meant it rather than just mouthing the words as is usually done. Their happiness and enthusiasm put an extra hop into my steps. Nice!

We dined here during our third night of our Western Ma holiday. It was strongly recommended by our InnKeeper. Food was excellent and offerings unusual. Not a lot of choices but that is fine for us as long as what you offer is good. Service nice. One recommendation for owner is to fix the stairs from the parking lot. They are in dire need of repair.

Best hot coffee around! I love to come East where there are so many Dunkin Donuts. I live in a city of more than a million people and there are only two Dunkin Donuts and one of them is at the airport

Had an excellent lunch at Pera Mediterranean Bistro in the center of Williamstown.
The baba ganoush starter was superb, with a slightly smoky taste and nice blend of spices.
The grilled Caesar salad special, served with grilled salmon was also quite good.
Shaina served my lunch in a friendly, helpful and efficient manner and the quiet, low key dining room was a welcome refuge from a hectic day.
Understand the restaurant is often fully booked for dinner and from the fantastic menu, I can see why.

My family was vacationing in Williamstown and saw the place, and decided to go have dinner there that night. The food was fine, but not outstanding or unusual. Attentive staff, seemed airy and clean and had a pleasant decor. The only complaint was we went at 7:00pm on a weekday in August, and it was e m p t y. One other couple was there when we arrived, they soon left. Eventually another couple arrived as we were finishing. So that made it somewhat uncomfortable but certainly not through any fault of the management. If I lived there while college was in session, I'd probably go regularly.

My husband and I, along with our son and his girlfriend, ate at the '6 House Pub one Friday evening. Love the atmosphere in the dining room..comfy and cozy. I had the raspberry chicken and the taste was heavenly. My only complaint was, I was only given 4 tiny pieces of chicken breast, and I was still hungry when my dinner was gone. The rest of my party had enough to eat because they had pub burgers and fries. Luckily, I was able to stave off my hunger by snitching a few of my husband's french fries, since he had plenty. The prices were reasonable, and we enjoyed our dinners, but as I stated my meal was quite tiny. It's a good thing I'm a woman; a man would have viewed my dinner as a meager snack..I'm sure. The raspberry sauce was so good that I scooped it all up with a spoon and savored every drop. I would love to go back to the '6 House Pub and have the luscious raspberry chicken again..but next time I hope my plate is a little bigger.

The Purple Pub has been the place to gather in Williamstown since 1973, serving lunch and dinner 7 days a week. Whether you're looking for traditional pub food or delicious entrees, we have you covered. Patrons can drink and dine at the large mahogany bar or in the comfort of the semi-private dining room. Come watch the game on one of our large screen televisions or enjoy a romantic dinner with someone special. Don't forget to try one of our 14 draft beers (we have bottled beer too), served in a frosted glass.
We were traveling through Williamstown at dinner time and searched Trip Advisor for advice. The Purple Pub had high recommendations and we agree. We each had a burger and they were some of the best we have had in recent years. Our waiter was friendly and attentive.
