The
People's Pint opened in 1997 with a simple pub-style menu and
a brewery and bakery squeezed into our basement. Now our brewery
is on Hope Street, our beers are available throughout the Pioneer
Valley, and our menu has a variety of appetizers, meals, and
desserts that we hope will continue to satisfy and nourish you.
Whenever possible, we serve food grown or produced locally and
oftentimes, organically. For example, our veggie burgers are
made by LightLife™ Foods in Turners Falls, we use Bart's
Premium Ice Cream (made up the street), our burgers are
grass-fed beef from Foxbard and Wheelview farms
in Shelburne, Mapleline Farm in Hadley brings us our
dairy products, the Pierce Brothers here in Greenfield
roast our coffee, our tee shirts are printed next door, and
the list goes on and on.
Many of our dishes are oriented around seasonal vegetables and
fruits supplied by over 25 area farmers - apples from Clarkdale
and Pine Hill orchards, greens and other vegetables from
Seeds of Solidarity in Orange, Paddy Flat Farm
in Ashfield, Upinngil Farm in Gill, and Astarte Farm
in Hadley, potatoes, carrots and other root vegetables from
farms in Whately, So. Deerfield, Sunderland, and Hadley, sprouts
from the Gill Greenery, seasonal produce from Warner
Farms and fermented vegetables from Real Pickles,
and Chase Hill Organic Farmstead cheese from Warwick
is often on our special ploughman.
Our priorities are not only to provide you with house-made sodas,
freshly brewed beers, and tasty food, but also to do it with
as little waste as possible. You might have noticed that no
disposable plastic and a minimum of paper products appear at
your table. Also, you may be pleased to know that all kitchen
and dining room food scraps plus our brewery spent grains are
composted or fed to area pigs, chickens and cows. We offer biodegradable
straws (upon request) made of corn starch, burn soy candles
instead of petroleum based, and many of our employees ride bikes
and walk to and from work. All plastic, cardboard, glass and
metal is recycled. As a result, even on our busiest night we
have not created more than one barrel of trash.
We hope that the knowledge of your participation in this ongoing
act of environmental goodwill enhances the time you spend at
The People's Pint.
