A word from The Old Inn On The Green
Dining at The Old Inn on the Green is an extraordinary experience: fine wine, great food, the dining room illuminated by candles, the murmur of conversation from the other room. As Chef and Owner, Peter Platt is always firmly in charge, working to create innovative and memorable meals that are an… event unto themselves. Over the past several years, the Old Inn has developed the tradition of serving a Prix Fixe menu - each Saturday evening a different four-course meal is prepared, and guests are offered a choice of two main courses as well as a choice of dessert. On other nights, the Inn offers a well rounded menu of a la carte items, with specials which change daily. The wine list is graced with a array of thoughtfully selected estate bottled wines from France, California and Italy. The dining rooms are lit entirely by candlelight and there are fireplaces in each room. Comfortably worn windsor chairs and mahogany tavern tables furnish the dining rooms.Continued

Diner Reviews
  • "This is an old country inn, nestled in the heart of the Berkshires. It is an easy drive, just off route 23, on route 57 in the center of new Marlborough. Reservations are recommended. Food was superb, menu has a nice variety; ambiance was very quaint with candle light in the dining room. Chef owned, definitely going back with a larger group of friends with extra time to enjoy the screened porch"

  • "Always a favorite restaurant in the berkshires but this visit was disappointing --a first. Lamb was tough and service slow. But we will return anyway hoping this was a one time aberration."

  • "On Saturday nights there are only two prix fixe options for $75 and $95. I didn't expect that and I did end up spending more than I planned. Foo was good, no complaints about that."

  • "Prix Fixe dinner was overall very good with only the first course salad and soup failing to inspire our table. Wait staff were very attentive, but there weren't enough of them considering the size of the crowd so there were long waits between courses. The noise level made dinner conversation somewhat difficult, too. The candlelit dining rooms were beautiful and were what really made the evening special."

  • "Amazing spot! Everything is candlelit. Amazing food and service. Go for the tasting menu (as the regular menu is just as expensive and of extremely less value in terms of flavor and portions). Also don't go late! The dinner takes a whole. If it's a 9PM reservation just skip it. Go another day and get in early."

  • "If you are looking for an oustanding restaurant that will take you back to the 18th century. This is the place. Picture a ceiling candelabra with real candles burning and candles on the tables. I had the seared froie gras which was a good as any I previously had at more expensive restaurants. The duck as a main course was excellant. My wife had the winter welcome meal, as gourmet as you can get and only $35. I look forward to dinner there again."

  • "Food was great as usual. Experience only made better by Max our waiter. Restaurant began with a quiet romantic dinner..of course by candlelight. Then a large party entered and pumped up the noise level. That being said we did enjoy the evening."

  • "This was my second time here. The first time we ate off the a la carte menu and it was very good and we drank a little wine. It was lovely. This time we ordered off the $35.00 prefix dinner menu while all the tables around us ordered the tasting menu it seemed. We did not drink except one glass of wine. The food beautifully presented and the waitress pleasant although twice I had to ask for more water. There was a longtime between our appetizer and our main course. The soup was bland and the halibut over cooked as was the chocolate dessert, which you could tell because it had fallen apart before it even reached the table.. I will go back again but I won't order from the $35.00 menu..somehow the treatment was just not the same. "

  • "We love this restaurant! It was recommended by an innkeeper years ago and we have been regulars ever since! The food is incredible, the service impeccable and the ambiance purely romantic. The entire dining room is lit by candles and the perfect place for a romantic dinner!"

  • "I really cannot speak more highly of this restaurant. We had 2 dinners - the reasonable Price Fix as well as the more expensive Tasting menu - and loved both! The wait staff were friendly and helpful. We even tried the lunch place connected to inn which was also amazing. Try this place! It is a hidden gem."

  • "We love this restaurant. We have been going there for almost 20 years and it is always fabulous. The food is always excellent, the service impeccable and the atmosphere very special. There is no electricity in the dining rooms so the candlelight enhances the beautiful inn and the setting. We had a fabulous salad, wonderfully cooked short ribs and divine desserts. Always a pleasure and a not-to-be-missed spot."

  • "The chef seemed to have used lots and lots of butter in everything, which is not to my liking. I wish I had known there was no à la carte menu on weekends. The setting is quite lovely and romantic. Good for an anniversary or a cozy wintertime tête-à-tête."

  • "Chef Peter Platt never dissapoints, the food is always delicious and perfectly cooked. I highly recommend the tasting menu but you cannot go wrong ordering A La Carte. Sommelier/Manager James is a gentleman and his knowledge of wine combined with their extensive cellar is perfect for any occasion. In my most recent visit I came with a party or 10, all of whom work in the food industry and they were all blown away. We all stayed at the Inn(They have about 10-12 rooms) as well so we could thoroughly enjoy the experience and we most certainly did. This place is perfect for a special occasion or romantic getaway and they also have a very generous prix-fixe on certain weekdays. By far one of my favorite restaurants in the world."

  • "This was one of the finest meals I have ever had in the most charming and friendly atmospheres I've ever experienced. Such a treat to have endulged. Everything was superb, from the service, to the mouthwatering food, and even the incredible ambiance. It was a re-awakening of all senses to as close to perfection as you'll possibly ever get!"

    Dined on 11/28/2013
  • "If Michelin were in this neck of the woods, they would probably award a star for the virtuoso kitchen. The candlelit dining room, fireplace and ancient country inn ambiance are magical While our waiter was personable and professional, his two assistants needed more training and focus. You will find some fine choices on the wine list, but not at all price points. Strong on American wines, the European list is uneven and perhaps geared to "expense account" types. They seem unaware that there are Burgundies that don't require a mortgage payment. My Italian and Spanish friends would be annoyed at the cursory nod to their repertoire. The quality of the cooking is such that the above failings can be forgiven."
    Dined on 11/15/2013
  • "Lets just say I am a foodie, a snob, and the pickiest palette in New England. The amuse bouche was a great start with lobster on endive and I forgot the other bite. I ordered The diver scallops and poached lobster appetizer while my husband had the sun choke soup. Both amazing, but the saffron purée that accompanied mine was a little sweet which cut into the savoriness of the dish. Then, the chef sent out a roasted beet tarte tartin which we licked the plate clean. My husband got the seared Ahi tuna and I got the pasta with roasted mushrooms, tomatoes, and goat cheese. For dessert, because there is always room for sweets after dinner, I ordered the chocolate fallen cake and he got the pumpkin cake, both were amazing. best dinner in U.S."

  • "This was our second visit which was not as good as our first. Very expensive (dinner only food bill for 2 about $110) for what was a rather average meal."
    Dined on 10/25/2013
  • "Beautiful setting in historic village in historic inn with great, great food and perfectly matched wines. The menu showcases the highest quality meats and fish done in classic dishes. Seared foie gras was excellent but almost the star was a tiny beet tartin -- that was truly memorable. This is not avant garde food so go expecting delicious but not extraordinary. This is not to be negative in any way. The only issue, however, is the price: the tasting menu with wine pairing for two was way over $400. We have no issue spending that amount and more for a special dinner but it needs to be exciting and memorable. But it's such a charming place that we would be happy to return for the candle lit rooms alone."

  • "Built in the 1730s this Inn looks grand and almost southern from the outside with its colonnade but inside has multiple small cozy rooms lit by candlelight only. The service was excellent and the staff served appetizer and dessert specials in addition to our orders. The food was excellent except for one minor item on my plate which was short ribs. I enjoyed the rare steak that came with It, however. Depending on the night of the week when you go, the prix fixe dinner with five courses is quite pricey or you can get a prefix dinner with three courses which is quite reasonable. We had the latter."

  • "When it started getting really dark I realized that the place was totally lit by candles, including the hanging chandeliers. Quite fabulous. And the food was absolutely terrific. Warm duck breast on spinach salad was unique and delicious, the rack of lamb perfect, and dessert was some of the best we've had in years. Lightest pastry stuffed with the freshest fruit. Worth the p;rice."

  • "This restaurant is amazing. Everything was perfect. We arrived late for our reservation ( we did let them know) and they were able to accommodate us with no problem. Despite the level of excellence, this place is not the least bit pretentious. Although we didn't get the tasting menu, we hope to do that when we are a little more flush, we had several items from it that were absolutely delicious. Every course was a delight and our server was attentive, enthusiastic, helpful and a very good listener. I had the lamb and I just loved it. In addition, the portion sizes were just right. I would recommend this restaurant with no reservations whatsoever and hope to return for our next anniversary."

  • "In an unlikely rural location, Old Inn on the Green is one of the finest restaurants I have enjoyed. I have worked in NYC for 35 years traveled extensively and consider myself to be a very good home cook. The food is beautifully presented, properly seasoned while honoring the excellent ingredients. Worth a special trip."

  • "The food was outstanding. Each and every dish was extremely well-prepared, interesting, and delicious. The waiter was professional, friendly, knowledgeable and helpful., but not intrusive. The setting is an old inn. It is quaint and romantic, and lit only by candlelight. The rooms are small, which helps to reduce the noise level. The only complaint registered by anyone in our party was that the air conditioning was insufficient given the warmth of the evening. This reduced the pleasure off the experience which was otherwise faultless."
