Tripadvisor Soda Chef Review… “More than you pay for”

“If you are a tourist, and want to pick one place to give you a good memory of when you were in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, definitely choose the Soda Chef. Its one of the longest-running businesses downtown, and probably THE longest running breakfast joint. Sitting here is a treat and experience in itself. They give you such delicious, warm food and a warm, cozy atmosphere. It's like going back in time, prices included (it also happens to be the lowest cost breakfast you may find ever - AMAZING value)”

Ice bar, orders to go for dinners etc. we went for the hot dogs so did not have dinner. Separate area to eat other than bar area. Service excellent and fast. Local place and just a fun place.”

Tripadvisor Otto’s Review – “Wonderful eatery in downtown”

Wonderful eatery in downtown Pittsfield. Generous portions and hearty coffee. I had the late-night special with goat cheese added to my scrambled eggs. Creamy and yummy. I’m a stickler about corned beef hash. Otto’s is homemade with extra seasoning. Their hash was moist with crispy edges and not too salty. Very good. Our server Shelly was friendly.

“This pleasant family-owned diner will shot you back to the 60’s. Their oldies music joins the family caring and love they put into their service and food. I’m sure that it makes Grandma Flo proud. The burger appeared to be handmade, cooked perfectly as requested and the onion rings were fabulous and crunchy.”
