Rusty's Place

Rusty's has a new secret weapon, and it's name is John. He's the executive chef who just became it's owner. Along with maintaining the greatness we all love (including the entire staff) he's upping the ante daily with subtle changes and wonderful new entrees. Items such as cole slaw and potato salad are even better than ever. The topping on the baked haddock is suddenly as perfect as the fish beneath it (and it's the best in the area every single Friday). The list of improvements and tweeks expands daily. The biggest deal is that this man deserves the title "chef"; though he doesn't ask you to call him that, once you taste an entree of his you'll naturally want to use the title. Last week the chef made a shepard's pie that was nothing short of amazing. Nothing like you're probably picturi

Place is small and cozy. Go on a Saturday and expect a wait. But for good reason. Try a seasonal option loaded with apples and caramel with their Spice Spice Apple Belgian waffle complete with eggs and sausage. Be sure to add their hash-browns!!!

First off, the service ❤️. These people are so incredibly kind. We ended up here because we had to have a tire fixed while we're traveling for our girls weekend and the people at Rucki's recommend it while we waited. The food was wonderful. We genuinely felt like we belonged even though we from Florida. I would recommend this place 11/10 The new owner is so passionate about the food too. Chefs kiss!

I visited Rusty’s Place on a Saturday morning around 10:00 AM, and as expected, the place was completely full. We had to wait about 15 minutes to be seated, which is totally understandable given the time and day. As a tourist, I really appreciated the local vibe of the place — it felt like a genuine hometown spot. The service was excellent; the staff was very attentive and made us feel welcome throughout our visit. The menu was clear and easy to navigate, and I have to say, the Belgian waffle was delicious! A great choice for a hearty and satisfying breakfast.

Can’t believe I haven’t given this place its props till now!! This has been my go-to spot since before it became Rusty’s. Hands down the best breakfast between Northampton and West Springfield. All the breads are homemade, they make a cinnamon roll to die for (it’s my “breakfast appetizer“) and their homemade corned beef hash is outstanding. Every menu item I’ve had has been tasty & fresh.
