If you’re in the Berkshires, you’ve probably heard of Ye Olde Forge restaurant and if you’ve heard of them, you’ve probably had their wings.
Well, I have news for you. I’m not a fan of Forge wings. I know, it’s like saying I’m a Bruins fan while in Montreal, but it’s true. I feel that their hot wings aren’t hot and have a weird sort of honey or tangy taste. If you want, in my opinion, the best wings in the Berkshires, then there’s one place for you, Patrick’s Pub. Patrick’s has great wings, a great atmosphere and is a considerable amount closer than the Forge. They’re located five minutes up route 7 in the center of Pittsfield.
Now, this pub is nothing like Halpin’s Grub and Grog across the street either. Halpin’s is pub fare, burgers and such. Patrick’s has a very good dinner menu, and makes a good sit down restaurant. They also offer bar seating, if you so choose.
A great place to bring the family, stop at Patrick’s to grab some phenomenal wings, a good dinner, then take the short drive back to the Yankee for a quick dip in the pool, tuck the kids to bed (if you’ve got em’), and stop by our Bar and Lounge for a drink or two.
