Dining at Jacob's Pillow
Dining at Jacob’s Pillow is more than a meal—it’s part of the experience. Nestled in the heart of the Berkshires, our dining spaces are surrounded by the beauty of a National Historic Landmark. Enjoy fresh, seasonal flavors as you take in the sights and sounds of dancers warming up, performances in the distance, and the natural charm of the Pillow’s outdoor spaces.
Whether you’re enjoying a picnic, grabbing a casual bite at the Café, or unwinding with a drink at the pub, every meal is enhanced by the history, artistry, and energy that make Jacob’s Pillow so special. Keep scrolling to explore ways to dine with us.
The Pillow Café is the go-to dining destination at Jacob’s Pillow, prominently located on the Great Lawn of our historic grounds—the ancestral homelands of the Muh-he-con-ne-ok, or Mohican people.
Whether you choose a seat at the bar or a table, both under our open-air tent, you’ll find a welcoming setting to enjoy a thoughtfully prepared meal. Try one of our seasonal specials, share a generous cheese and charcuterie board, or explore a cocktail or mocktail—whether classic or a little unexpected.
Our new chef, Kenny Cheung, brings a fresh perspective to New England cuisine, featuring the best of the Berkshires with an infusion of global flavor, and incorporating sourced ingredients from local purveyors including Jacob PIllow’s own Garden
The Café is open Wednesday through Sunday — specific services and times available on the dining schedule. Reservations for tables are strongly encouraged. When booking, please let us know your showtime so we can time your visit with care.
