The Prairie Whale - Great Barrington

This is a great place to eat and meet and talk with local folks. There's a jazz trio led by a friend of mine who teaches young kids how to play jazz. And, they are remarkably good musicians! The atmosphere is pure funk and delightful. The servers are terrific and very friendly. Go there. You won't regret it.

I always have a delicious, cozy meal when I eat here. It is a must on my GB list. Foods is consistently top quality and service is friendly. I really like the atmosphere. Thanks for being a special place for me and my husband!

Ordered the burger last night. While it was cooked perfectly, the bun was cheap junk and became completely soggy immediately. Toppings were lazy an unimaginative: thickly sliced white onion and odd shaped crunchy romaine?. All rich salty, fatty flavors with no balance of acid— no pickles! Side of mayo was fun. Fries weren’t bad. Asked for mustard and ground pepper and it never came. Thankfully the Side Salad was just a pile crunchy green lettuce -nothing else- dowsed in white white vinegar, that kinda helped. Kinda I’ll be back, in the spring maybe. Service is always nice and staff is friendly.

Great food made from great ingredients, great drinks, great people, great atmosphere. It’s great.

Had dinner with my daughter on a Monday night, so worth the 30 minute drive from my home. Space is incredible eclectic, rustic, and charming. Full of warmth and character. Servants are incredibly warm and friendly and efficient, and the food is fresh and delicious!! I had the fried chicken and my daughter had the burger. We also shared the Caesar salad. All super fresh, delicious, and incredibly fulfilling. Bravo!
