About the restaurant

Dining at The Old Inn on the Green is an extraordinary experience: fine wine, great food, attentive, knowledgeable service and the dining rooms illuminated only by candle light. Chef and Owner Peter Platt, along with his team, work to create innovative and memorable meals that are an event unto themselves. Currently, we are offering a $85 prix fixe menu with 5-6 choices per course every night we are open. The hours for dinner are Wednesday through Sunday 5:30 pm to 9:00 pm for both indoors and in an all new screened outdoor room. The wine list is graced with an array of thoughtfully selected estate bottled wines from France, California, Italy and around the world. In addition to candlelight, in the colder months there are wood burning fireplaces in each room. A copy of our current menu can be found on the home page of our website www.oldinn.com.

The menu is limited. The food was delicious, in particular, the beet salad. It’s a very old,traditional inn, but there are no dress requirements.

Always a delight to dine at Caminito - admittedly had been a number of years since I'd been back however the experience was as good if not even better than before! Her steak tips were perfectly medium paired superbly with the chimichurri and the duck was absolutely delicious. They have Don Julio 1942 on hand and their cocktails are fun and *spirited* - such a good date! Even better that we were able to spontaneously make the reservations via OpenTable just 45 minutes ahead of time. Which was perfect to get to Northampton, park at the garage, and casually stroll over to see a handful of open tables outside on the patio, perfect for the early Saturday evening we were hoping for on the way up!

My husband and I went to the 350 Grill to celebrate his birthday. Let me tell you, it did not disappoint! Our server, Michael, was outstanding. He was attentive, courteous, professional, funny, and kind. The food was incredible, quite possibly, the best steak I have ever had. We had a great date night, thank you!
