What User doesn't like about Farmhouse Cafe:
I asked for cream for my coffee-the waitress told us they don't have cream, only milk, long black hair in my husbands omelette- we ended up walking out - no wonder there are no customers in this place- the waitress was lovely - felt bad that the owners leave it up to her to explain why they don't serve cream- she said she used to bring it in herself so she wouldn't have to face the complaints, she deserves a better p...

My wife and I were looking for a place to go and have lunch the other day. We've grown tired of the franchise places that have little or nothing new to offer you for lunch. We'd known of this place but for some reason never got to it. Last Monday that changed. We were warmly greeted, sat immediately, handed menus and asked it we wanted coffee or something else to drink. We got our drinks quickly and took our time to... View all feedback.

I tried it out today and ordered the 3 egg breakfast. The food took forever, about an hour. Way too long for a bacon and eggs dish. The food tasted like garbage...

We love going to this place for breakfast! Best hash browns around!! If your looking for a consistently good bacon and eggs this is the place!!

Still some of the weakest and most awful coffee I've ever experienced.Real coffee cream may help but reckon it's simply not strong enough, or time to upgrade th...

Farmhouse Cafe offers a decent dining experience, with a standard breakfast menu. While some dishes are good, others lack flavor and quality. Service is friendly, but could be improved. The atmosphere is cozy and charming, making it a family-friendly and affordable option for a meal. The food is homemade and hearty, with generous portion sizes. The decor is quirky and fun, adding to the overall dining experience. Although there are some areas that need improvement, Farmhouse Cafe is a hidden gem with potential for becoming a favorite spot for locals and visitors alike.

Breakfast was Okay. Coffee was watery and the fried potatoes were a bit bland for my liking. Eggs and sausage was good as well as the sour dough toast. Service...

I don't know how you can call yourself a breakfast place when you offer eggs Benny but don't offer hollandaise sauce. The pan fries are just day old boiled pota...
