"This longtime Buckhead outpost at Tower Place on Piedmont Road closed after 12 years. The operators said the space will be turned over to another local restaurant while the brand refocuses on smaller neighborhood stores. The Buckhead location, opened a year after the original downtown spot, was known for 100-percent grass-fed beef that is dry-aged, ground fresh, and cooked-to-order; the menu also included vegetarian quinoa burgers and chicken- and pork-based patties. The bar emphasized mostly local beers, boozy milkshakes, and a modest wine selection. The closure follows earlier pandemic-related downsizing, such as a Peachtree Corners location that shut in 2020." - Beth McKibben
"After closing last year during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Farm Burger reopened inside the Midtown Whole Foods along 14th Street on Monday, July 12. The Midtown location serves the chain’s grass-fed beef burgers and chicken as well as vegetarian and vegan burgers, and it added three fried chicken sandwiches sourced from Farm Birds, Farm Burger’s takeout-and-delivery concept based out of the Buckhead location. The 14th Street burger joint has 86 seats inside and room for up to 28 outside; for now it’s open daily from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., with evening hours expected to begin in September." - Beth McKibben
"We’re working with Miller Union, Farm Burger, and the Deer and the Dove. They’ve been steady partners for us." - Beth McKibben
"Opening inside the new Midtown Whole Foods on Wednesday, July 24, Farm Burger brings its Atlanta-based, organic-burger approach to a 14th Street outpost with 86 seats indoors and up to 28 outdoors. Founded in 2010 by farmer and rancher Jason Mann and restaurateur George Frangos, the chain emphasizes 100% grass-fed beef that is dry-aged, ground fresh, and cooked-to-order — cattle are fattened and finished on sweet grass, never fed antibiotics or growth hormones, and always humanely raised and handled. The Whole Foods restaurant also offers chicken, vegetarian, and vegan burger options, plus beer, boozy milkshakes, and a small selection of wine; it participates in Whole Foods’ “Friends of Whole Foods Market” program and joins six other Atlanta-area locations in Decatur, Grant Park, Buckhead, Dunwoody, Peachtree Corners, and at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, as well as locations in Alabama, Tennessee, and North Carolina." - Beth McKibben
"Farm Burger—which launched in 2010 and now has 12 locations—sources local grass-fed whole cattle that are broken down in-house. Here, burgers (like the ever popular Sunny Side) are ground from a 'whole carcass blend' that includes anything from chuck to flank to sirloin. Offal goes into specials, and fat is rendered to create tallow butter that the burgers are cooked in." - ByPriya Krishna
