About

Bar: Full bar

This downtown spot draws a casual, local crowd looking for old-school Italian comfort. Joe's Cafe Spaghetti & Pizza is a hole-in-the-wall known for its eggplant pizza and gluten-free options, with a divey, no-fuss vibe that's been a Northampton classic for years. You'll find a full bar and outdoor seating when the weather cooperates.

It's open evenings only, from 4pm to 10pm daily. The place can get noisy, but it's a solid choice for a laid-back date or a late-night bite. If you're in the mood for something different, Jake's is another local favorite just down the street.

From the community

This place is a Northampton classic with the best eggplant pizza around. If you enjoy dark, old-school family Italian restaurants, it's the best option in the Pioneer Valley. It's great for dates, though noisy, works for groups, and is open late.
