Otters

Good breakfast and friendly staff. Pancakes are big but a little dry, so hard to eat more then two. Lot's of room so it's always quick to get a table and the location is convenient along route 2

Hooray for new, good things in Charlemont.
Otters is still getting its feet wet, slowly expanding hours and menu, but signs are good so far.  
Recently opened in the old restaurant space near Oxbow Resort Motel.  Decor is a bit lacking (getting there, slowly), but is a great place to stop after, or before, rafting or ziplining.  
Have only tried breakfast, but ingredients are fresh and much is homemade.  Specials are seasonal and interesting, and prices are very reasonable.  Portions are generous,  you will not leave hungry.    Full liquor license as well, and there is wifi.  Experiencing some of the issues of any new restaurant (inexperienced staff, varying wait times for food, odd samplings of condiments) but the coffee keeps flowing and everyone is friendly.  There is generally a newspaper to read, revel in our entertaining small-town police log if you are visiting from 'the city.'  (Also a tip if you're from out of town.  Heading west, this is pretty much your last breakfast stop until North Adams)

Have sampled an asparagus omelet, homemade hash, breakfast wrap, and mozzarella tomato and basil omelet.  All satisfied, and left happy.  Will report back on lunch and drinks.
