Local ingredients, very creative chef. Thursday night specials are three course meals for 25. Delicious food on the more upscale side of dining, but smaller dishes and brunch on weekends will satisfy thrifty folks. Kombucha on tap.

the Voo is open for brunch on weekend, and also is a hangout at night for drinks and music and other shows that popup on occasion. Check their website or Facebook page for a schedule of events. A unique and affordable menu makes this place a great choice.

They do the burgers, fries and milkshakes very well indeed. Full bar --but not a hangout type of place.

This is a lovely setting overlooking the tumbling waters of the sawmill river. People come here with their laptops quite often. Simple and good menu. Beer and wine available and the little bar (six stools or so) is a local favorite spot...

Love love this place! tons of picnic tables in season for their outdoor takeout business. Cool funky decor of paint by numbers collection and vintage clocks make it interesting to dine inside. Poetry readings in off-season sometimes here. Lots of different salads and sandwiches to choose from and incredible homemade ice-cream!

Entertainment & Activities

concerts, performance, etc plus bar in lobby.Theater presents a variety of local productions and on occasion bigger names from farther afield. Concerts, fundraisers, dances, game show spoofs, radio shows: they all happen here. We are hopeful for film offerings as well at some point! New seats and air-conditioning system in the theater and complete re-do of the lobby area recently has revitalized the building, and it is under new management this year as well. It seems to be thriving.

Newly opened parlor featuring 22 vintage pinball machines, right on Avenue A in Turners! Feed tokens into the machines for a fun time that doesn't cost a fortune. The owner is still figuring out the hours, but count on Fri, Sat, evenings and afternoons anyway.

The FRTA schedule is available online and at bus stops. Service is spotty due to the large service area and spread out population they are trying to cover, but service between Turners and Greenfield is very reliable. Making connections to Hampshire county can be circuitous. No weekend service, but that may change soon (we hope) so check online.
