Bernie's Dining Depot

Biggest prime rib steak ever.
It looks like a roast instead of a steak. Oh boy. It tasted great, too. Several in the group had the crab stuffed shrimp, which were also great. We enjoyed dining in the dining car. Good service, good food, good ambiance and great family gathering.

Exceptional service. She was very attentive to my coffee and meal. Great ambiance and very clean. The kitchen was super fast and cooked my sirloin burger and OE eggs perfectly. The meat was very good quality. The marble rye toast was a nice bonus and stayed moist the entire meal. They also serve bloody's, which is nice for a weekend brunch. Great find.

Love the petite fried fisherman platter - fresh, not too greasy, perfect crisp, and you can't best the price! Especially for lunch. Great seafood as well as comfort food.

You will not go hungry here! Get there early as they might run out of their massive amazing tasting prime rib!! Its great to be able to eat inside of a train. Staff was nice. Food came out fast and fresh. Pricing was very good for amount of food you get. They do offer reservations for larger groups, which I would recommend!

The good: arrived at 3:00pm, wait 5 minutes, sat in the train car. Comfortable. Wife ordered pork chops. 3 boneless chops. Two cooked nicely, one slightly too pink. Saved to eat later. I ordered the medium prime rib. Gigantic. I ate the outside and saved the interior for later. Ordered medium rare. Outside 1" cooked to brown. Very tasty. Little salt. Inside, pink & very moist, could have been hotter. Took about 3lbs home. Dog enjoying the rib. Potatoes a gratin were fantastic.

Restrooms we're small, but clean.

General condition: well maintained; smells made me hungry; tables and chairs clean.

Service was very good. Server was very attentive. Kept drink glasses filled.

Going back to try the seafood meals next.

Prime rib is on point! Planned a whole day trip to make it to Bernie's and it was worth it
Split this small prime rib with my love and still had TONS of leftovers to take home
Service was mediocre

Update 12/8/18 after a second trip to Bernie's I stand by my first review! Best prime rib around!! This time we sat in the train section of the restaurant and it made the experience even better than the 1st time
The only problem I have is that I wish Bernie's was closer to me so I could try more of their menu

.Food was excellent! Had baked seafood platter. Large portion size. Make sure you have an empty stomach. Service A1
Nice atmosphere. Casual dinning. Visited from CT. Would defiantly head back.

Iconic place to enjoy steak in MA.
Good:
-Huge parking lots
-Easy to find
-Friendly and helpful staff
-The steak is awesome, and huge
-Wide options for lunch and dinner
-Have private area for more than 4 people, but only 1 room
-Unique atmosphere, but cozy

Bad:
-The steak is huge, to go mostly
-Because it’s in an old train, so seats are close to each other.
-Noisy when busy
-More than one hr drive if you’re in Boston (but worth it)

My wife and I celebrated our 44th Anniversary on June 10th at Bernie’s Dining

Depot in Chicopee, MA and we loved everything about this place it’s like you walked back in time. From the staff to the food they makes you feel special and want your business. Thanks to Jen, she helped make our day very special. We plan to go back soon and can’t wait to see the wonderful staff. ❤

Unbelievably good, so reasonably priced. The service was awesome. Be prepared to wait to get seated. Very busy place..

Excellent service, excellent food! Get there before 6pm if you want the prime rib! Tons of food. Had a great time celebrating my husbands birthday! We drove 1.5hrs to get there and we will be back!

I have been told my my parents that Bernie's is the best place to stop, so after two years I finally made the trip, it was well worth it! The portion sizes are worth their weight in gold! We arrived at the peak of dinner time rush, we only waited for about 10 minutes until we were seated. Our waitress was the best, she made sure everything was perfect and made our dining experience great! We will definitely be making a return trip sometime soon!

Everything I wanted and expected from such a diner! Big, homestyle meals. Great people. Local charity. And lots of deliciousness.

Great food and service. Portions are bigger than you would expect. The picture is the smallest portion prime rib and a chicken salad. So make sure you bring an appetite for all this food.

Awesome place! Food and service is outstanding! Call ahead if you want the prime rib.

Just had breakfast and the food was delicious! Service was great and the prices?! Soooo affordable.

Great place and nice staff. First time. Jesse our waitor was amazing. Thank you Jesse you were awesome. The food.....OMG. Worth the drive. Love this place

Ask for their Stuffed French Toast. I had the Banana Stuffed, I wanted Strawberry. They managed to find just enough left for me to have a combination of both!

Service is excellent! Be patient and wait for your food. It's well worth the wait.

I saw this place on tv and I swore that if I was ever within a half hour of it that we were going. To say that we weren't disappointed is an understatement. The portions are GINORMOUS, we will have another 2 meals on the leftovers. Everything we had was delicious. The prime rib, and corned beef were melt in your mouth tender. My kids are currently thinking up reasons why we need to drive near Chicopee again.

Loved this place! Very charming interior and the train cart is beautiful! If you can definitely get a seat inside. If you cant the rest of the place is still very nice. Very quaint. The food is absolutely delicious and the portions are HUGE which is very nice for leftovers. Staff was friendly and welcoming. Definitely will be coming back
