Shelburne Falls Pub and Brew at the Sweetheart - Shelburne Falls, Massachusetts

This was our first visit for dinner, and it was a great experience. It really checked all the boxes I can think of; the building is new, provides a warm and comfortable atmosphere, has wonderful views, a very friendly and attentive staff, the food is fantastic, and the prices very fair for the quality and quantity you get. We had the seafood casserole at $30, and I can not adequately describe just how delicious it was. It was filled with lobster, shrimp, scallops, and fish, with a buttery crumb topping, and the size of the dish was huge. We couldn't finish it and took the rest home for the next day... so I really consider it a $15 meal X 2 meals. We also saw dinners going to other tables, like fried whole bellied clams, fish and chips, burgers, and more, and they all looked equally fantastic. We will definitely be back to try them as well. Don't hesitate, GO, and try it for yourself. There is plenty of parking available, although if they are really busy, that could change quickly.

The food is good. The bartenders are good. Definitely a home town pub. So things get chatty. So service can be a little slow. Nice looking place. In the warmer months. The outside dining is good with a nice view of the hills and part of the town.

We've had delicious meals the few times we've gone here. The whole belly clam dinner was delicious. The wings were also. We were lucky to get a table this past Saturday because we were not aware they had begun taking reservations. We were there to dance and listen to the band that was playing that night starting at 7 pm. We got there at 5:30 and the restaurant was packed already. The host was able to find us a table with a very minimal wait. He was very nice as was our waitress.

The upstairs banquet hall is really nice. Lots of dance floor and the bands sound great. Bar upstairs also.

This place has a stunning view and beautiful patio to eat outside when the weather gets warmer.

It's definitely worth a visit to a beautiful area.

Come for the decent bar food, stay for the view!! Nothing here you can’t get at any old bar and pub, typical wings, fried pickles, burgers, and the food is fine, but pretty forgettable. However, the atmosphere is like nothing else! Amazing view of Shelburne Falls, Massachusetts. Breathtaking outdoor seating both under and atop a massive deck. If you want a quick bite and a beer in the area, go anywhere you like, but for a scenic experience with lunch included, this is the one. Especially in Autumn! 🍂

I'm torn. This place has a great beer list, cool location and great service. But like other reviews have said, the food gets to the table stone cold!! How? So many people have complained about this! How are they still bringing out a tepid meatball sub? I ended up taking it to go and will heat it up in my air fryer. The actual meatballs were really good. It's just baffling that they would serve cold food to the only two people in the restaurant.

The view of Shelburne Falls and the countryside was amazing from even the parking lot at this restaurant. There is seating outside. We were thankful they were open for lunch on a weekday. A lot of restaurants in this area don’t open until four or 5 PM. We picked this place because the view is incredible. Well, our lunches did not disappoint. I got the barbecued ribs with a choice of several different sides. My husband had an excellent Reuben sandwich. A lot of places don’t put much thought into their side of french fries. It’s just a filler. There’s had the skin on and were well seasoned and crispy. There’s a good size beer menu and some specialty cocktails that were also delicious. This will definitely be one of our stops again when we visit the Berkshires.

They are brand new business trying to do the best they can! The staff is busting there butts to make sure everyone there gets the best service they can give. There may be a wait due to staff shortage but anywhere you go now a days has that. Food is great! Different specials weekly, everyone is so welcoming and the view is incredible! They made updates to make it look beautiful! Prices are really reasonable as well.

This place is very nice inside, the food had flavor and was very tasty. They are above normal size plates.
