Opened in 2012, Farmstead Table blends French technique and new world innovation in a classic American country kitchen. Inspired by local farmers, our culinary team believes that fresh and pure ingredients don’t require much tinkering and should speak for themselves. The innovative food is complemented by lively cocktails, domestic craft brews, and finely curated wines. A soothing design and intimate dining area provide a relaxed feel, while our staff delivers polished, yet approachable service.

Food was very salty and fish was not fresh. Pumpkin hummus was odd, with a few pieces of carrots and celery. Popovers were carelessly reheated for $12. Not worth it.

Farmstead Table should be everyone's "go to" restaurant when you need a special yet unpretentious restaurant. The staff are friendly (but not seeking to be your new best friend) and very knowledgeable. The atmosphere is low key, nicely decorated, and NO TV! The food is very creative and extremely delicious, and with offerings that you would not find elsewhere. Farmstead Table is a favorite for brunch or lunch. I have not yet enjoyed its dinner menu but have no doubt that it's equal to the task if not better.

We were there for brunch. The food was delicious!! Lovely setting- simple but attractive. A small place, making it awkward to move around tables, use restroom, etc. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Service was very slow and not very attentive. I definitely want to go back and try another meal!

Farmstead Table is a lovely, intimate setting. The room was a bit noisy when all tables were full. The food was beautifully plated and the quality was fine but not outstanding. The service was very good.
