Farm Bar is a neighborhood farm-to-table restaurant with locations in Ravenswood and Lakeview. We serve approachable midwestern fair with local, organic ingredients from our own Brown Dog Farm in Mineral Point Wisconsin. Stop by for dinner to indulge in our Classic Burger and famous Wisconsin Cheese Curds, or bring the whole family for lunch. Our mixologists behind the bar will happily shake up handcrafted cocktails or pour a glass of local wine to pair with brunch on the weekends. Join us for homestyle cooking, friendly faces and a table that feels like home. We limit our environmental footprint by using a digital menu linked to our tables with a QR code. We understand that some guests may require a paper menu, and one can be provided with a list of standards items upon request. In order to meet added costs from the city, we've added a voluntary 3% COB fee to our checks. We understand that rising costs affect our guests too, so we will remove this fee upon request.

    I want to love this place but it is actually just OK. The menu is rather limited and fairly basic. We have been seated at the same table both times that we have gone to the restaurant, it looks right at the women's restroom and it is by the kitchen. I have a couple pet peeves, one, they still have a QR code menu, two, they have an additional service fee percentage added to your bill which you can ask to take off but nobody does and it is added to over priced food and three you have to pay your bill via the QR code., can't the servers do this for the 20+ % tip and the added service fee?? Not sure I will be back.
