Haven
Haven is not only one of the cutest bakeries and cafes in the Berkshires—it’s a gathering place for the whole community to find fantastic food. Haven works with a huge network of local organic farmers, environmentally conscious partners, and Epicurious distributors to create high-quality meals that leave your mouth watering. Roll up early in the morning to downtown Lenox to try one of their French rolled omelet or buttermilk pancakes paired with a fresh cup of pour-over coffee. Or grab a pastry to go from their beautiful glass window display with daily baked goods for the road. Between their excellent service and healthy ingredients, your meal will be nothing short of life-enhancing.
The Marketplace Kitchen Table
This Berkshire-born business and breakfast spot is the original farm-to-table restaurant. The founders, Kevin and David, started a business to provide specialty meals you’d find in high-end restaurants of big cities for Berkshirians to enjoy at home. They source their ingredients from local farmers, hire Berkshire-native culinary artists, and craft meals with their heart and soul. Today they have a thriving business with several locations across the Berkshires for carry-out and dine-in eating, but our favorite is The Marketplace Kitchen Table in Stockbridge, MA. You can create your own breakfast bowl, sandwich, omelet, or burrito with your choice of fresh ingredients, ranging from hearty eggs and bacon to vegan quinoa, edamame, and goat cheese!
Main Street Cafe
This cafe is one of the most iconic breakfast places in Stockbridge, MA. Main Street Cafe proudly serves anything you could ever want for breakfast or brunch, homemade right in their kitchen for maximum freshness and enjoyment. Their “Buffalo Benny” special comes with Canadian bacon on an English muffin spiced with buffalo hollandaise. Or you could try their Pumpkin French Toast topped with walnuts, cranberries, cinnamon sugar, and whipped cream! During the warm summer months, you can even sit outside and watch the cars, tourists, and locals go by with the gorgeous Berkshire mountains in the background.
Starving Artist Cafe & Creperie
No one ever leaves unsatisfied after breakfast at the Starving Artist Cafe & Creperie. Everything about this Berkshires dining experience is restorative, from the building that the owners renovated to the modern interior design. Their dining room doubles as an art gallery with exhibits from local artists you can gaze at as you eat. Their eclectic decor even includes old church pews for seating at their booths. But the best time to visit is during their musical brunch on Sundays, with live music from 11am-2pm! Come give their savory and sweet crepes a try. They have plenty of organic, vegan, and vegetarian options for foodies of all kinds to choose from.
