All our food was farm fresh and incredibly flavorful. Monday night welcomed us with half priced wine by the bottle to match our wonderful meals. The service was excellent, so I would highly recommend a meal here.

Please be thoughtful in allowing staff to come by and try to clear plates. We felt extremely rushed and the restaurant was empty. Also, can you fix the drying door setup to reduce cold draft. Why seat people up front when the restaurant is empty?
Farm Bar - RavenswoodResponded on 31 March 2025
Morgan, thank you for this honest feedback. We'd never want you to feel rushed when dining with us or uncomfortable at your table. We will make sure to remind our team to allow our guests to enjoy their escape at a relaxed pace and also make sure to note we are aware of the draft from the door. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Best,
Your Friends at Farmheads

The hostess was a bit rude and wouldn't seat us until our entire party arrived. I've been several times before and have always been sat upon arrival while waiting for the others to arrive. It was very uncomfortable for 5 people to stand at the front door to wait for the one person parking the car.
Farm Bar - RavenswoodResponded on 24 March 2025
Thank you for this honest review, Valeria. We are disappointed to hear that you were met with anything but the highest level of service and kindness upon your visit to Farm Bar. We will pass these notes along to our team and address what went wrong and how we can improve moving forward. We completely understand how that could be uncomfortable and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Thank you for your honesty and we hope you will give us another chance.
Best, Your Friends at Farmheads
