In February 2026, Downtown Pittsfield, Inc. will present A Taste of Downtown – a month-long Downtown Restaurant Celebration – in partnership with Mill Town Foundation. Seventeen restaurants and bars in downtown Pittsfield will be participating. A Taste of Downtown will feature marketing efforts to highlight downtown Pittsfield’s local restaurants and restaurant owners and the Taste of Downtown Giveaway which will be an incentive for people to dine in local restaurants over the course of the month. The prize for the Taste of Downtown Giveaway will be 17 gift cards – one from each of the participating restaurants – a $400 value. Every purchase at a participating restaurant will count as one entry to win the prize package. Ask your server for the QR code to enter the contest at the time of purchase. There is no limit to the number of entries per location.
