Downtown Pittsfield Restaurant Week: February 16-26

Downtown Pittsfield, Inc. (DPI) will host Downtown Pittsfield Restaurant Week during and in conjunction with the City of Pittsfield’s 12th Annual 10×10 Upstreet Arts Festival from February 16-26, 2023.

Downtown Pittsfield Restaurant Week is sponsored by Downtown Pittsfield, Inc. and the Mill Town Foundation.

Downtown Pittsfield Restaurant Week will feature a passport to encourage people to dine in as many restaurants as possible over the 10 days. Patrons will receive a stamp on their passport for each unique place they dine, with each stamp being an entry into a prize package drawing for restaurant gift cards. If a person visits 10 different places in the 10 days, they will get 10 bonus entries, and if they donate a non-perishable food item to benefit the South Community Food Pantry at South Congregational Church, they will also receive a bonus stamp. Donations may be dropped off at Downtown Pittsfield, Inc., 33 Dunham Mall, from 9 am to 4 pm Monday through Friday.

The passport will be available at participating locations the week of February 16. Participating locations include 101 Restaurant & Bar, Berkshire Palate, Dottie’s Coffee Lounge, Espetinho Carioca, Hot Harry’s, Hot Plate Brewing Co., LuLu’s Tiny Grocery, Methuselah Bar & Lounge, Otto’s Kitchen & Comfort, Patrick’s Pub, Thistle and Mirth, and Thrive Diner.

Completed passports may be dropped off at any location above. Passports will be collected from those locations on Monday, February 27, and a winner will be chosen the week of March 6, 2023. The more stamps, the greater your chances to win!

Downtown Pittsfield Restaurant Week will feature “Perfect 10 Cocktails” by Berkshire Mountain Distillers at select locations, as well as 10-themed menus and specials highlighting some of the best our restaurants have to offer.
