    We finally checked out Pittsfield Cafe. I’d heard about it a few times but always forgot, mostly because I'd never just stumble onto this place, it’s tucked inside the building in a way that you kinda have to know it’s there. Total hidden gem. The whole “outdoor seating but indoors” thing is pretty cool. Feels real old-school, like a little golden-era corner that somehow survived. It was packed, but we still got seated right away, and the staff was super welcoming.

    I ordered the French toast combo. Two sunny-side-up eggs, two big sausage links, and two thick slices of French toast. I thought it would be just a normal breakfast, nothing crazy, but man… those sausage links stole the show. Juicy, smoky, honestly the best I’ve ever had. Mixing that with the eggs and the French toast just hit the spot. Perfect way to start a Saturday morning.

    This is a unique location for a café that harkens back to the diner vibes of the 80s. No frills, just good old fashioned line-cook food. Very comforting! Also, its inside the Pittsfield Building (blink and you will miss it) that has a cavernous interior and intricate gilding from a by-gone era.

    Their traditional eggs benedict is exactly like the many I have had in the decades before that’s total comfort food! This is s must try for those looking for a diner style cafe in a one-of-a-kind set up.

    We were staying near by for a week and looking to expore local breakfast options. The Pittsfield building is a very cool old building slowly going through a revitalization, and the Cafe is tucked in what used to be a grand foyer / lobby. It's a cute little cafe with the feel of a typical big city diner. It was doing a steady business for a weekday breakfast. It was nice that my daughter (a non breakfast food lover) was able to order lunch food. We enjoyed our food, but found the prices a little high for portions/location, etc. We also tried what was advertised as their famous Bloody Mary, and unfortunately our garnishes were moldy, which dampened what might have been a good tasting drink. Our server was very fast and friendly, it was the feel of a family run operation, which I always like to support. If that area and looking for a quick bite in a casual spot, this fits the bill.

    Very busy breakfast. Food was great and the staff was very friendly. Get there early to get a seat. I ordered the Denver omelette, which was delicious. I asked for a side of sausage gravy and put it all over everything. It was amazing. My wife ordered the burger and she thought it was very good.

    I’ve lived downtown for nearly a decade, and have passed this building countless times. It wasn’t until today I found myself wanting some breakfast and stumbled upon Pittsfield’s sign out front, and decided to try. It was amazing! It was like be transported into another city in a different time. Along with the wonderful atmosphere, the staff were incredibly nice and the food was really well made diner style food. Looking forward to my next excuse for breakfast out!
