Farmstand at the Farmhouse Inn: Reviews & Ratings
As an early Valentine's brunch, we visited Farmstand over the weekend. Farmstand is the casual restaurant out of the two. They also have the Farmhouse restaurant for dinner. In addition, they have beautiful cottages you can stay at in a serene setting. We arrived around noon and was the only one in the restaurant. We were seated in a small table for two overlooking the pool and grounds. The server was kind and quick to serve. We ordered the roasted artichokes, red pizza and chocolate cremeux. All dishes are made to share. The artichokes was fresh, a good starter. The pizza was small, we had 4 slices each. The dessert was almost like a chocolate mousse layered with ice cream and cocoa brittle on top. We left satisfied, not overly stuff just perfect. Love the grounds, the relax vibes. It makes you feel like you're dining in the middle of the woods.
On our visit, the complete staff was very friendly and attentive. During our stay, we enjoyed breakfast, lunch and dinner. We plan to return again to enjoy this wonderful property, food and staff.
I had been looking forward to trying Farmstand, but was cautiously optimistic given the mixed reviews. We had a lovely dinner there. We shared a fantastic bottle of Tempernillo, a pizza, trout and a lemon tart. We enjoyed everything we ordered and the final bill was very much in line with what we'd expect to pay around here. The staff seemed stretched thin, but despite that, the service we received was very good. Will definitely be back.
We went here on our Anniversary night and it was delightful! The staff wished us a happy anniversary as soon as we arrived and the second we sat down, we were given complimentary glasses of bubbly to celebrate! Everyone was so nice and the food was amazing! Our server was new (3 weeks) and we would have never known. She was amazing and described the dishes like she'd been working their for years. Chicken & Quail dishes were cooked to perfection and the carrots were to die for! On our way out the cooks wished us a happy anniversary from the kitchen. Absolutely loved everyone here! We will definitely be back.
