10. Bela Vegetarian Restaurant

Stopped in here on a Saturday afternoon. Itâs cash only and small inside. There is an ATM close by. Also, this establishment is âfragrance freeâ so do not wear a strong smelling cologne or perfume going in. The signs explained the cook is allergic to the smells. Our waitress was friendly and quick. We ordered side salads with fig balsamic dressing which was delicious! I also ordered a soy chai.. full of flavor. My veggie cutlet with gravy and mashed potatoes was phenomenal! Best gravy! My husbandâs veggie burger was packed with fresh vegetables and delicious toppings. We were raving about it all day. Sometimes vegan/vegetarian places can lack flavor or use too much flavor and this restaurant was just right and super fresh. Plenty of parking lots and a few street parking spots. I would certainly stop in again if I was in the area!

We were glad to find a late night option after a concert in town. The sandwiches sound a little better on the menu than they taste in real life but the poutine was tasty.It's hard to find a meal after 11, so Sierra is a fine option for that, but I wouldn't get too excited about dinner here given the plethora of options nearby.

Four of us dined here for dinner on the 17th of June. DH and I were in MA visiting friends. They had been here before but not in a long while.My friend and I each ordered a glass of wine. Wine glasses were smudged with finger prints. I should have asked for new glasses but didn't figuring the inside of the glasses were clean. However, when I ordered a second glass, I told the waitress about the dirty glasses and asked that she check the glasses before pouring. My husband ordered the burger, which was overcooked. Even when he got a second burger, it was just the same. He was very disappointed.I ordered the filet with mushrooms and gorgonzola I always order my steaks rare. It came out as medium. Since I complained about the wine glasses, I didn't feel comfortable complaining about the filet. Fortunately, being a tender cut of meat, I ate it. We figured the cook prepared the meals on extra high heat. Too high.My friends had no complaints about their meal but thought the service was slow at the start of our evening.Our waitress was apologetic. She took my wine off the bill, along with my husband's burger. Will we go back? Not sure. My salad was delicious; and we enjoyed the bread.

Was hungry, so went for full burger with. As one who is rather picky about burgers, this was outstanding. Exactly as promised...and the beer, "BEER", was as noted on menu. Bitter, UK style (my fav.)Had never been to this place in our 3 2/3rds years, yes I don't like to eat out much--but this was worth it.

Certainly as advertised. If you are addicted to red meat you may want to look elsewhere as fish, seafood and vegetarian dishes make up the menu. Service was friendly - without being intrusive - and very knowledgeable. The menu is complimented by a very reasonable wine list. Still in business after more than two decades, Paul & Elizabeth's must be doing something right.
3. Sylvester's Restaurant

An early morning errand brought me to Northampton. After that mission was completed I asked a local police officer for the best coffee shop that was not a chain. (Who better?) He immediately responded, "Sylvester's," and his partner nodded in agreement. Easy to find. No problems parking on a Sunday morning. Attentive staff, with a sense of humor--during a hectic morning rush--which gets double points from me. Wonderfully flavorful, fresh coffee. And, Oh my! the raspberry pop tart was sweet and juicy and try as I might I was unable to eat it slowly. On my next trip I will arrive earlier and have breakfast. I recommend you do the same, but do as I suggest, and go early--bring an appetite.
