The Prairie Whale

Elevated, area-sourced American fare & cocktails served in a charming house with a hip, rustic feel. 

"WHAT: Country mouse meets city mouse in a rustic (but urbane!) Berkshires hotspot. 

WHY: The western strip of Massachusetts has long benefited from cross-pollination along the Taconic State Parkway, especially in southerly Great Barrington. So when Marlow & Sons’ Mark Firth decided to quit the city for farm life, the town gained a small eatery with all the farm-to-table signifiers: reclaimed wood, cornhole games on the front lawn, meat and veg from Firth’s own farm where he raises sheep and pigs (the restaurant’s name references that breed’s 19th-century nickname), and dressed-up rustic fare: potato-leek soup with poached egg; pork goulash with braised cabbage and spaetzle). No airs, no website, no reservations." [Eater]
