The Farm at South Mountain

This place was absolutely amazing!! I went just for the restaurant (Morning Glory) to have brunch and was completely amazed with the farm. It is very green and there is a lot of space for activities and events. The have cages with their chickens and ducks that they use for their restaurant and even cornhole boards to play outside. The place is great for kids since they can safely play in the grass, and for adults to picnic or just sit and enjoy a calm day. I highly recommend this place!!

What a great experience! I brought my wife here for her bday. She spends a lot of time on a barn with her horse, but lobes anything barn/farm related. It is a very cute environment and I love the idea of eating food from the source. I got the crispy pork belly tacos and my wife got the smoked salmon omelette. We also shared a delicious blue cornbread muffin. The pork belly was delicious and crispy, but I needed every bit of the sauce provided because it was a little dry. The cold brew press coffee was amazing, must try if you're a coffee person. I went on a Saturday morning at 8 am and didn't wait very long. Fortunately it was cloudy, because it was quite warm outside. Makes sense they close for a summer hiatus. I can see this being a fantastic place for breakfast with friends or maybe even a nice breakfast date! I will be coming back to try the other offerings at the farm.

First time eating here. Great outdoor place to grab brunch or lunch. Beautiful February day! Lots of picnic tables spread out. Many people in line not masked but I still felt safe. Had the chiliaquiles with pork and over easy egg. Delicious. Thumbs up from others that had the French toast and Japanese loaded potato with slab of brisket. Bloody Marys and mimosas appropriately strong. Great place to take winter visitors from cold climes for a "picnic" brunch/ lunch.

Came on a Monday a little after 11 am and beat the lunch crowd. This is the perfect place to bring out-of-town guests. Just do your best to avoid super hot or super cold weather because it's pretty much all outdoor seating. The prickly pear margarita was delicious but light on the alcohol which was fine for a lunch drink. Walked around and saw the trees and animals. Lawn games like corn-hole were available. Looks like the perfect place for a wedding or baby shower. No outside food or drinks. We will for sure recommend this to others and come again!

Awesome place beautiful grounds. 😍 The food is very good and Drinks are refreshing. The workers are very attentive and caring. Breakfast was so Fresh and good Bacon Eggs 🥓 🥚 and Quiche was the best ..Fresh fruit was the topper ...Just Go and take your family you can walk off what you eat ...

The Farm would be a great place to take out-of-town family or friends to have lunch and walk around and enjoy the sunshine. The place was very busy on a Saturday afternoon. The lunch menu was ok but the breakfast menu “Morning Glory” looked more appealing located at the back of the property.

Fine dining with a choice of prix fixe menus featuring 3, 4, or 5 courses. Optional wine pairings. Reservation seems like a requirement. Allow plenty of time to dine. Cocktail menu and full wine list available as well as a menu of wines by the glass. Definitely a special occasion spot.

Went here for lunch and was pleasantly surprised!! Great area with lots of different places to see and things to do. Food was great and all farm fresh! Dog friendly as well. Will definitely go back.

You can't go wrong with breakfast, lunch, or dinner at The Farm at South Mountain. Make reservations for breakfast at Morning Glory or dinner at Quiessence, but for lunch at the Farm Kitchen, just walk up and order. Enjoy lunch at a table in the shaded patio or venture out across the Farm and picnic in the grass. The Farm Kitchen offers grab and go items like salads, a fruit bowl, potato salad, and lots of pastries, cobblers, brownies, etc. Their made to order sandwiches are all delicious! They have hot and cold options. My sister and I chose the brisket Bahn Mi french dip and, while good, it was maybe too warm of a day for a hot sandwich. We all snuck bites of my mom's choice of the old fashioned turkey with cranberry relish and mayo. It was delicious! The sandwiches went down well with their signature cocktails as well. After lunch we strolled through the Farm and down to their little shop. I picked up some cute earrings, salsa, and a lovely bouquet of dried lavender while the kids each picked a cute chicken toy. Then we ended by visiting the chickens and turkey and checking out the veggies growing in the garden. I've seen weddings held at a variety of spots on site. There are so many beautiful lush photo ops. Before they close for the summer heat, be sure to have a relaxing day on the Farm.

This is a great place! We just moved in the area and found this place. Good was great, and great portions. The burrito was delicious and they have a great Belgium waffle. If you order the mimosa, enjoy them. They are FULL. You eat outside. Seating is great; and they have plenty of it. It's beautiful to walk around and enjoy after your meal.

It has been several years since I have been here... My friend and I both had the Farm Sandwich and honestly, we were super disappointed. It use to be super yummy....this time it was simply okay. The bread was too hard, the veggies were okay and it just was not too tasty. My other friend had a turkey sandwich and she said it was good. As for the location, it is located in a peaceful outdoor environment. Great when the weather is beautiful like now.... Personally, it was just okay.

If you find yourself in South Phoenix this is a MUST visit. We randomly stumbled upon this place this morning when looking for breakfast. Morning Glory is their breakfast Cafe and we LOVED it. Farm to table and an AMAZING place! Fun to sit and relax, walk around, and just enjoy the scenery.

Food was decent. Overpriced for the quantity and quality. Think breakfast at First Watch, except you're paying more to order at a counter, get your food in a paper tray and sit outside on a dirty bench shooing away flies while you eat. Didn't hate it; but wouldn't to back or recommend anyone to go.

Came here for a late breakfast with a friend on a Sunday back in the late summer. I recall that day it was still pretty hot and since this being a farming dining experience, we were siting outside. I also recall it being rather pricey. I had some fresh fruit and blue corn muffin and ordered a virgin Bloody Mary as I did not want to drink alcohol in the heat and the total came to something like $25! Wowsers! They could have decreased the price on my drink really since there was no alcohol. Its a nice place, quiet enough to have a conversation and would be a good place to just relax for awhile. There weren't a lot of people when we went as still fairly hot, so not sure if its mobbed in the cooler weather. Overall, a good experience but definitely need my piggy bank to be full when I come back again.

So amazing! We met some friends for breakfast and loved the atmosphere at the farm. There is space for our kids to run around. The small store is really cute. The food is delicious. Our kids loved seeing the chickens! There looked to be a build your own bouquet section today - if we are able to come back next time we are in town, I'll look at a calendar of events to see what might be happening at the farm. Dogs were allowed, but not many were there. Such a great place!

Good food, good drinks and good ambience are what comes to mind each time I visit The Farm. Pets are welcome which is great.

This place is adorable. You order inside hand they'll text you when your order is ready. Lots of picnic benches outside. Great place for families

Another visit to the Farm. AZ beautiful weather calls for a nice visit to the Farm for some really good food and a nice stroll or picnic. This time i tried the tuna salad and my daughter had the egg salad, both were eggselent! Generuos portion, egg salad served open faced with avocado. Fresh lemonade and iced tea delicious. have not been disappointed with any food so far (the cubano is my favorite so far).

This quaint little place had the perfect space for some outdoor seating, have kids play, and just relax and take in nature. The set up for ordering and picking up your food is a bit unique but it worked and flowed well. Staff as nice and food was very good.

This food and the environment of this place is incredible! Definitely recommend to locals and visitors alike!

Farm fresh ingredients, the jam on the turkey sandwich is incredible. It has a nice spicy kick to it, the pricing is a little expensive but the farm has beautiful scenery and it's nice when enjoying the weather outdoors

I took my kids here, and they love it! Their breakfast was good! You can do a party event here as well. Nice scenery and a little farm to look at. I would recommend you to take your family here.

Took some friends here yesterday. Two of us had the Tuscan sandwich and another had the Old Fashioned Turkey with cranberry relish. We all enjoyed our sandwiches and sides eating them outside under the shade trees. I was happy that they've added cocktails to their menu, so of course I had a Bloody Mary! The BM mix is homemade (I asked) and I swear it seemed to get hotter as I drank it. I have been to The Farm numerous times and enjoy bringing out of town guests to experience it. The Farm is a hidden gem that you would not even realize you were in the middle of a metropolis. Locals know this used to be a Pecan Orchard for decades. Still have the Pecan trees, they haven't sprouted their leaves for spring just yet. Still operates as an organic farm with educational classes, Farmers Mkt on certain days and 3 restaurants. The Farm Kitchen is just one of them. Guess they have also added some animals or fowl to observe but we didn't make it down the lane this time.

Beautiful farm! This place is super kid-friendly. A friend and I brought our toddlers and they had fun looking around. There are 3 different restaurants and we ate at Morning Glory Cafe which is located farther back in the farm. Walking through the farm, there are gardens throughout and also chicken coops to check out. There are so many benches outdoors and beautiful trees throughout! Weddings are hosted here, as well. I'm sure other events are hosted here as well. Love this place and will be back!

Great place that is good for all ages. Lots of open space and good breakfast and lunch restaurants. Cold brew was good. Buffalo chicken salad had some zing to it but was still good.

This place was everything! Ambiance, phenomenal food, and great drinks!! Even with ordering at the counter, the food was an unexpected surprise as it was so fresh and delicious!! I have heard amazing things about the Farm at South Mountain but never did I expect it to be this good. Highly recommend the Bahn Mi sandwich!! The combined flavors were amazing!!

Went with family to have brunch and had a good time. Good food and outdoor setting for kids and adults

I still love this place, but it is expensive. Sandwiches are fresh and made with local ingredients, which often come with a steep price tag. You're looking at around $16 for a sandwich. It's a good size though. They have individual bags of chips and small sides of potato salads and drinks, as well as a selection of desserts. I love getting my lunch and grabbing a picnic table to enjoy the nice weather outside. It's close to the airport, so convenient when picking up or dropping someone off if you're hungry.

This was a great spot to enjoy some breakfast or lunch while you enjoy the quiet outdoors. We got lunch at the spot on the right when you first enter, the food was good! I recommend grabbing a cookie or salad while waiting for your food because it can take quite a while. As far as the farm aspect, they have a few of their vegetables and citrus trees on the property, along with chicken, ducks and turkey. They offer games like corn hole, bocce ball, and Jenga to name a few. There are lights hung on trees and would be a great spot to host a party or something like a rehearsal dinner, but keep in mind that it has to be booked through them because no outside food or drink is allowed on the property. Just a tip: I'd anticipate waiting 45min-1hr on a weekend when grabbing lunch here.

Worth going out of your way to stop by this magical place for lunch. I had the brisket sandwich which I would highly recommend. It's a paradise. An oasis in the desert. Your sandwich will be almost $20, but you're supporting local and the ambiance is wonderful and so is the food. They have cocktails as well.

i went with my girlfriend and it was sosososo cute, we both loved it! the food was okay, but we did get a kids sandwich so that might be our fault. definitely recommend though!! there was also a cat that sat near us

Such a hidden gem! Perfect spot for a girls brunch or catching up with family. Great views of the farm. The food was really good my friends ate here after hiking around south mountain and we got the paninis, cookies and the lemonade. The staff was friendly and the place was busy for a Monday afternoon!

Let's check this out. Decided to stop at this local attraction as I had heard many cool things about it! Super cool vibe, lots of trees, grass, people laughing, kids running around having fun!!! Very reminiscent of days past when families used to picnic together on a bright sunny day. The food was great, there is a little knick Knack shop where you can buy some trinkets!! Also, you can buy bottles of hard spirits to take home with!! I would definitely recommend for an experience that's memorable!!

Great setting with creative entrees. Went for breakfast and no matter how long the line got, there were enough tables to accommodate all diners. Very relaxing ambiance.

Beautiful Farm located near South Mountain hiking trails which makes for a convenient post hike meal! We went on a Sunday at noon so it was absolutely packed. We waited in line for about 35-40 minutes before getting to the counter to order. However there is plenty of parking across the street which was convenient. I loved the big tree lined field full of picnic tables and families enjoying the beautiful weather. There is no shortage of seating either! The food menu is strictly sandwiches, salads, and snacks. The sandwiches were pretty average for the steep $15 price tag. You pay for the atmosphere not the food. They had a large alcoholic drink menu along with yummy flavored teas and lemonade. This is a seasonal establishment so I do enjoy coming here once a year.

What a great farm! We stopped briefly for lunch as we have heard about them by word of mouth. They have an assortment of sandwiches to choose from, my favorite being the smoked brisket banh me French dip. The brisket was incredible delicious and tender. The have so much space for picnic tables, weddings and more. They are sustainable growers with their soil and see gardens. Their garden to restaurant ingredients make for the freshest experience. They have a beautiful restaurant lush green area towards the back that we are planning to visit soon for their breakfast menu.

We were treated terribly and they ruined our engagement. My family loved this place and suggested it would be a great place for my boyfriend to propose. He had his brother ask a woman who worked there if it would be okay if the proposal took place, considering the place was closing. She informed she would be locking the gate, but we could go right ahead and would just have to hop the little gate after we were done. To my knowledge we were there for family pictures so I was unaware of what was happening. After walking a couple minutes, we stopped at a cute spot and he popped the question. We had a photographer there who began taking pictures of us on the property. A few pictures in, we had some older man start walking towards us and start yelling at us. He interrupted us mid picture and asked if we had a permit to be there. We were very confused, as we had just gotten permission from another woman that worked there. He told us if we wanted to continue taking pictures on the property we had to pay a couple hundred dollars. We informed him we had already gotten permission and he didn't believe us. We then told him we'd only be a few minutes longer and asked if we could just finish up really quick and go. He began to get upset and yelled at us to get off the property. He then followed us out and off the property to ensure we didn't take any more pictures. He completely ruined our engagement. We only got a few pictures from our engagement and that terrible interaction completely ruined it. You only get that special moment once in your life and it was totally stripped from me. I was clearly pregnant at the time as well and yet this man had no compassion. Completely rude. We will never be back to this establishment and my family/friends won't either.

It's a very cute spot but the food is overpriced for not being that mind blowing. I had the brisket tacos and they kind of lacked flavor, even though I love that they use fresh ingredients from the farm. But $18 for tacos I didn't finish because they were bland was a lot. It also sounds like it used to be full service but now you order at the counter and pick up your food. Full service would have been nice. Friendly service - my favorite part is they had 4 day old baby ducks that were soooo cute and you can go see them.

Brunch here on a warm winter midweek morning. Charming surroundings with great food. I'm a tea drinker and their iced tea is great. My companions enjoyed their coffee and entrees too. I'll make another trip before the beautiful weather gives way to summer

Dinner at the the farm at south mountain, if it's your first time eating dinner with them, just call them just for you can understand how dinner works there, it's not your everyday, Apple bees big steaks. You get to choose a 3 courses to 5 courses of meals, it is a 2-3 hours of dinner, just be aware when when you see prices of $35 more, cause that's not the meal it's adding more to your course and the bill. My food review for this place though overall with the dinning place, it's pretty and really fancy, they serve you all the drinks, it's nice and quiet vibe to the place with smooth music. The food is tinny and small portion like a really fancy restaurant, it's beautifully placed like the true culinary arts I've seen on TV only, the taste of the food was really good! The streak too and the pasta. This was just the 3 course plus the Japanese steak I got too try that says 35 plus on the bill. Just be away of the prices cause I got the 3 course plus a date got the same and the Japanese steak. I had to pay a really pretty penny. Let's just say my nephew isn't gonna get his Xbox for his birthday anymore, back to Best Buy you go! Overall it was a new experience for me and my girlfriend. but just be prepared your gonna spend at least an Xbox cost of food plus maybe a 6 month gold pass with it too. Thank you chiefs and Thank you staff for the wonderful experience! Definitely come back but with a fatter wallet next time cause I wasn't prepared haha

I met up with a couple of my friends for what was originally supposed to be brunch. We aimed to be at The Farm by 11, however by the time we got there we very quickly realized that the line for their brunch spot was unbelievably long. Some other patrons recommended getting to The Farm by 9 for the breakfast spot (Morning Glory Cafe) Thankfully it seems The Farm also has a lunch spot (The Farm Kitchen)! In terms of the atmosphere/ set-up: The space itself was gorgeous with trees lining the path and picnic tables set up throughout the farm as well as a grassy area you could set up a little picnic blanket. I didn't know what to expect and didn't realize there are actually 3 restaurants set up in that space. They have a breakfast (Morning Glory Cafe), lunch (The Farm Kitchen), and dinner (Quiessence) spots. There are some garden beds with veggies growing, however some of their garden beds were a bit sparse. I'm guessing their garden beds in the center of the farm were mostly decorative. I was pleasantly surprised to find The Farm to be dog friendly! They have a chicken and goose area closer to the Morning Glory Cafe. Now the most important part, the food: (1) Smoked Brisket Bahn Mi French Dip - This was absolutely delicious. The brisket itself was fatty and flavorful, and balanced really well with the pickled veggies, reminiscent of bahn mi sandwiches. I would 100% order this again! (2) London Mule - They do serve alcoholic beverages! Wow this was surprisingly tasty! I believe it was tequila, plus some of their farm grown citrus.

Overall rating: 4/5 Wait: 3.5/5 Arrival time: Saturday 11:30am Food: 4/5 Order: french toast brioche, Japanese loaded sweet potato, side of brisket, farm home fries Service: n/a Price: 4/5 Worth it, would come back I visited The Farm on South Mountain on a Saturday morning at 11:30am and was pleasantly surprised with my overall experience. While I did have to wait a bit for a table (3.5/5 wait time), it was worth it in the end. I ordered the french toast brioche, Japanese loaded sweet potato, side of brisket, and farm home fries, and everything was delicious (4/5 food rating). Unfortunately, I can't comment on the service as I didn't interact with any staff members, but the price was reasonable for the quality of the food (4/5 price rating). Overall, I'd give The Farm on South Mountain a 4/5 rating and would definitely consider coming back in the future. It's a great spot for a delicious brunch!

Awesome place Great food Great gift store Helpful And great service at the restaurant and gift store Highly recommend checking it out

From start to finish Quiessence at The Farm was an incomparable experience. Zero negative feedback or complaints. The aesthetic was vibrant with gorgeous landscaping and delightful lighting all across the farmhouse property. We partook in the 5 course meal and were pleasantly greeted by polite and knowledgeable service, followed with flavorful farm to table dishes that caught the eye and pleased the tastebuds. Ending with a tour of the kitchen, farmhouse and yards added a unique touch to an already unforgettable evening. I could not recommend this location enough.

What a wonderful place to enjoy a really good salad or sandwich. On sight roasted turkey sandwich was d-LISH. After lunch, we strolled the grounds and after viewing the menu at Morning Glory Cafe', realized I HAVE TO COME BACK to try many other offerings. Farm-to-table is the way to go, and The Farm has made a wonderful environment.

Property is a working farm in a great setting. Food was good too but very pricey. Overall a good experience. My problem is with the tip culture today. I'm supposed to pay for my food up front and then the minimum option to give the staff is an 18% tip on top of already expensive prices. They stand behind the counters and you get a text when food is ready to come get it. I'm not being served. I have to bus my own table and clean up after myself. What am I tipping for? An actual waiter gets 20% and they are filling up my drinks, bringing me my food, and cleaning up my table. What if they don't do a good job? I've already paid for the food. Why don't you just pay a fair wage and remove the tip option?

"STEP AWAY FROM THE CITY" This spot is so good! The food is fresh and delicious! I highly recommend it! The line is long so get here quick! On Saturdays they are open until 1. They have a very cute shop and really good drinks. This place is expensive with each meal being about $15 but the scenery is great and the portion sizes are good. You do get what you pay for. They have lots of hot sauces and have amazing customer service! They are super friendly and the atmosphere at the farm is super refreshing! Can't wait to be back.

We have always loved this place.. been enjoying the food and the ambience since the first time we visited them 10 yrs ago.

Oh my goodness, it has been WAY too long since I've visited the farm! This time, I had my dog, husband, and 2 year old in tow and we had the most magnificent Friday afternoon! Now that I'm a mama, I'm always looking for places with outdoor dining where our busy little guy can run and explore without bothering anyone. Well, friends, this is IT! They have loads of picnic tables, yard games, and colorful places to explore! The kiddos can check out their ducks, chickens, garden areas, and more. The best part to me? Their INCREDIBLE lunch items at their cafe (located just as you enter the grounds). Their sandwiches are TO DIE FOR! I also love their iced tea and baked goods. Our toddler SCARFED his PB&J on buttermilk bread! Needless to say, the entire family was oh so happy!! We're already planning our next visit (maybe this week)! Thank you for the great memories!

UNEXPECTED AMBIANCE IN SOUTH PHOENIX! I'm a south Phoenix native and I'm not sure how I have never been here! This is a hidden gem down here! I went for breakfast at the Morning Glory Cafe. You wait in line, get a number, pick up your food, and sit at any of the many outdoor tables. The meals are all about $15. I got the chilaquiles with brisket meat added and a mimosa. My total was $32. It's a bit pricy for one person, but the food is all fresh and you can definitely taste it! These were some of the best chilaquiles I've had. FLAVOR EXPLOSION! Definitely get the hot sauce on it! The mimosa is great because the orange juice is freshly squeezed with pulp and all. I really enjoyed it. The ambiance is perfect during these cooler months, not sure how it would be in the summer. After eating, you can walk around and see the gardens and animals! This is great for families or dates! I'll definitely be back for breakfast and to try the lunch sometime too!

I wasn't impressed with the food or the farm. My husband ordered the Tuscan sandwich and it was missing the artichokes and there weren't many greens. Not worth the money. The only farm animals we saw were ducks, chickens and turkeys. Won't be back!

What a disappointment on January 28, 2023 and turned out to be a bit dangerous. Food was mediocre. The French toast was sickeningly sweet, like candy. My main complaint is a serious health and safety issue. They use biodegradable plastic knives that break easily and put shards of plastic in the food. I hope I pulled all of them out as I was chewing but it's dangerous. I called it to the cashier's attention but no manager came out to see us.

Dog friendly. Beautiful & serene outdoor seating. Refresher drink I got with tequila, ginger beer & lime juice is refreshing! Bloody Mary with tequila with rim dipped in honey & tajin is perfect blend! Smoked brisket is amazing. A must place to visit!

A fun place to explore. Came with my two year old. We got lunch and ate outside at a picnic table. Their food is all farm to table and we enjoyed waking around the farm after lunch. We went on a Monday and none of the shops were open and only one restaurant. Not sure if this is a week day thing or if it's due to Covid. Would love to come back when more is open.

Came here with a friend after our hike. The line was long which was a good sign yet not great when hungry from hiking lol. I was happy to see my two favorite sandwiches on the menu (French dip and Cuban). I chose the Cuban minus some non traditional Cuban items. I didn't want tomatoes or lettuce or pickled veggies. I kept the other non trad items and it was good. I loved the added avocados too. I'd definitely get it again. The pork green chili soup was good except it was lacking in pork contents and mine had a large chunk of fat vs pork. It came with a flour tortilla as well. The grounds are nice even with no leaves on the trees. I'd love to come back when the leaves are back on the trees as well.

Super cool place. Love it here. Very neat to come walk around and enjoy the space. Make sure to check out the shops, events and restaurants.

Very pretty but I expected more animals. Brought my daughter with me and as we were leaving she kept telling me she wanted to see more animals. I know is not a zoo but a couple more birds would've been fun to see.

Love the casual, relaxed atmosphere with casually-sophisticated food. Everything is fresh. Great variety of sandwiches - hot or cold- and salads, desserts and kid or adult beverages. Will be back.
