This is fantastic for drinks and food. The Margaritas and Fish Tacos are superb. It is south of Amherst Center at the intersection of Route 116 and Pomeroy Lane. It is a fun atmosphere, but very loud. The wait is long on weekends. Go early. Lunch is quieter.

This is the best pizza ever. Lots of unconventional pizza combinations (eg. Chicken Bacon Ranch) available by the slice. You can also order whole pizzas. It is a fun place to go, usually hopping. Usually people take-out. There are only a few tables and often a long line out the door.

This is quintessentially Amherst. We always go there for special occasions. The food is excellent: healthy and imaginative (American, French-inspired). The cocktails are great. Judie, the entertaining owner, circulates and makes conversation on weekend evenings. No reservations.

Great food- It is a full menu, not just pub food. The front room is a bar. The back room is fancier, but has the same menu. We have gone there on special occasions, and we have also gone just to sit at the bar on a weeknight to catch a ball game on TV.

This could be good for a regular night or a celebration. An upscale bar/pub in town. Drinks are great. Great atmosphere. The food is typical for a pub but better quality and more upscale. They have a few TVs at the bar, but these do not dominate.
(Johnny’s Tavern should not be confused with Johnny’s Diner - which is good when you want a classic diner experience. The Diner has the same owner as Johnny’s Tavern, but it is not as pricey and has a different menu. It is open late and family-friendly).
