The Farm House

This was my first time at The Farm House after hearing great things about it for years. It definitely lived up to its reputation! I had the All American breakfast which consisted of perfectly cooked scrambled eggs, delicious bacon, and biscuits and gravy for my side. All the dishes were prepared and seasoned perfectly. The service was fabulous and the atmosphere was casual and comfortable. I will be back again to try one of their delicious patty melts!

When it comes to finding a hearty, comforting brunch spot in Watsonville, The Farm House has quickly become one of my favorites. My wife and I decided to stop in for brunch, and from the moment we walked through the doors, it felt like the perfect place to relax and enjoy a late morning meal together. The first thing that struck me was the welcoming vibe. The rustic wood beams, wide open space, and long counter seating gave the place a warm, casual, farmhouse feel. Natural light poured in through the big windows, and you could hear the happy buzz of families and friends enjoying their meals. The “Welcome” sign hanging at the entrance really sets the tone it feels inviting, like you’re walking into someone’s home kitchen rather than just a restaurant. Service was excellent from the start. We were greeted with a smile, quickly seated, and had coffee in front of us before we even had the chance to glance over the menu. The staff seemed to genuinely care about making sure everyone was taken care of, checking in just the right amount without hovering. The menu itself was impressive loaded with breakfast classics, creative specialties, hearty burgers, and even indulgent sweets like churro waffles and carrot cake. It was clear right away that no matter what you were craving, there would be something for you here. For our brunch, I went with the Chorizo Benedict, which was a twist on the traditional eggs Benedict. Two perfectly poached eggs sat on top of toasted English muffins, layered with spicy Mexican chorizo, peppers, and fresh pico de gallo. The rich hollandaise sauce tied everything together, creating a creamy balance to the spice. On the side came golden, crispy hash browns that were done just right not greasy, but with a nice crunch. It was a plate full of flavor and definitely something I’d order again. My wife went with the Farmhouse Breakfast, and it did not disappoint. It came with fluffy scrambled eggs loaded with melted cheese, crispy diced potatoes that were well-seasoned and browned beautifully, and a country-style biscuit smothered in creamy sausage gravy. It was hearty, flavorful, and the kind of meal that sticks with you in the best way. The portion sizes were generous, which made it feel like you were really getting your money’s worth. What I loved most, though, was how comfortable and community-focused the Farm House felt. Looking around, you could see families laughing together, groups of friends catching up, and couples like us just enjoying a weekend brunch. It’s the kind of place where people don’t just come to eat they come to connect. That atmosphere, paired with great food and attentive service, makes the experience feel memorable. Another highlight was how approachable the pricing was. For the quality and portion sizes, everything felt fair, which is refreshing in a time when brunch spots can sometimes feel overpriced. It’s easy to see why the Farm House has become such a popular spot for locals and travelers passing through Watsonville. By the time we finished our plates and had a second round of coffee, we both agreed that this was a brunch worth coming back for. Whether you’re craving a classic Benedict, a creative omelet, or even something sweet from the “Sugar Factory” side of the menu like pancakes or churro waffles, the Farm House delivers. Verdict: The Farm House in Watsonville nails the balance of hearty food, welcoming service, and community vibe. My wife and I left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. If you’re in the area and looking for a place to start your morning off right, this is it.

The Farm House in Watsonville nails classic comfort food. The hand-breaded chicken fried steak is crunchy perfection with juicy steak inside, topped with rich gravy. Add in crispy country potatoes and over-easy eggs, and it’s a hearty meal that begs to be mixed together. Every bite is warm, savory, and satisfying—like breakfast and dinner rolled into one. Cozy vibes, friendly staff, and food that hits the spot every time.

Farmhouse was a great choice for Mother’s Day. We absolutely loved our food but the calamari & French fries were my favorite. Service was fast & friendly. The waiters were on it, always checking on us to see if we needed anything, would definitely go back. The pictures of our food. skirt steak sandwich with mushrooms & onions, bbq chicken salad & quesadilla & fries.

Amazing service. Coffee cup was never empty. Enjoyed the pesto scramble and fluffy pancakes. Huevos rancheros is green and red with two eggs, crispy tortilla and fresh avocado. Variety of breakfast and lunch items for all eaters.

Busy, friendly, and tasty! Will be back again. Great food!

Good place for breakfast. Clean bathrooms environment is good. Gets busy bit food comes out at good times. Definitely recommended. Stop by if youa re in the area.

Had breakfast here. Looks like food coming from local farm. Eggs are very fresh. Lunch and breakfast set is until 3pm. Staff is very cautious and service was good enough. Not super cozy but relaxing place in weekend. Price is right.

Returned some more times after my initial review and every single time.... Incredible food!! This really has become a staple for us, such a wonderful spot.

We came here with a larger party during our weekend trip to Pajaro Dunes. We came for lunch and were able to get a seat quickly. It's got a cute diner vibe. I had the nor cal burger which was really tasty and cooked well. The kids had fish & chips which they enjoyed. My husband had the Philly and he said he's had better and wished he'd ordered a burger because ours were all very good. One person ordered the stuffed burger which had a lot of flavor and was super tasty. My mother in law ordered the grilled cheese and she said it had tons of cheese. All in all, good experience. Burgers seemed to be their strong spot.

What a great one! Needed a change of pace from my usual breakfast spot. I'm a firm believer in eating a balanced breakfast with carbs, protein, and healthy fats before working out, and looking forward to a grueling gym session. Great spot to go to, their menu has options for all, the food is tasty and the portions are huge. Friendly staff and attentive service. I showed up early and I was able to walk right in before the morning rush took over. I ordered the Smoked Salmon Eggs Benedict - very pricey, but truthfully it's comparable to the area - they also had some great music playing too. Great people, great vibes, so much positivity and that right there is what it's all about - thank you for the hospitality!

One of my top 3 favorite breakfast spots. I come here often and so far i've tried the chilaquiles, california omelet, farmhouse scramble, farmhouse breakfast, and i've also tried some lunch items like the chicken tenders, chicken parmesan, and chicken bacon ranch sandwich. I highly recommend eating here for breakfast im personally not too much of a fan of their lunch. (nothing wrong with their lunch its just their breakfast is amazing i would rather save my appetite for that.) So far every breakfast item i've had i've enjoyed and if they messed up they gladly take my plate and correct their mistakes and apologize to me. I've had multiple different servers and they've all been very attentive i have no complaints about the service. I've been coming here basically since it's opened and the quality of food has stayed just as delicious as when it first opened. As far as the inside of the restaurant it kind of gives like a slight ranch style or southern home feel. The bathrooms are spacious and clean, and the restaurant is also very clean.

The service provided was exceptional, the food was delectable, and the customer service was characterized by respect and attentiveness. The woman who served me was particularly commendable. I will certainly return to this establishment.

Went here today with my boyfriend for the first time and it was great! Even on a busy day like Labor Day right at noon, it was still a great experience. I'm picky about my chilaquiles and these were the best I've had in the area! The michaladas were amazinggg too, came with chamoy and tajin, yum! Our server was great and service was nice and timely. Def gonna be back.

Seated quickly for a Sunday morning. Food came out quick waitress was friendly the chorizo eggs Benny was delicious. My daughter plowed through her chicken tenders and fries but the chili chilies with beans need some work. FYI, the bathrooms were disgusting.

The food is amazing my favorite is the huevos rancheros the drinks r great and the waiters and people are very nice ! Ambiance is very clean! I love having breakfast here.

I had the John Wayne burger with a side salad substituted for the fries. The salad was huge, fresh, and delicious. It was like something I would have made for myself at home. The burger was really, really good. I have been disappointed by restaurant burgers so many times in recent outings, so this was very satisfying. My wife had the mango salsa steak salad, and it was so big she could only eat about half of it. I ate the second half the next day, and that was a meal in itself. The steak pieces were a little tough, but the flavor and quality of the salad was excellent. I think we paid less for these meals, including tip and tax, than we paid for a pair of mediocre to poor burgers from Betty's Burgers a couple of weeks prior. The wait staff was friendly and responsive, and the cooks seemed to be in great spirits in the back. I think this will become a regular stop on our meal outings.

I went here with my daughter my friend and her daughter as well! This place small but mighty! The food was delicious and arrived fairly quickly. Their burgers are super tasty! My daughter got the Mickey Mouse pancake which she love! My friend got the chilaquiles. I asked her how were they and she replied "hella good". Can't for get the great customer service!

Came here with a party of 19 for breakfast on a weekday and we were impressed with the friendly service and how fast they served the food. All 19+ dishes and drinks came at almost the same time which made dining much more pleasant when everyone has their food. On top of the service, the food was fresh, well seasoned, not greasy, and presentation was well done. I ordered the ribeye with house potatoes, sunny-side-up eggs, and toast and it was satisfying. I felt the cost was worth it because of the above mentioned. Keep it The Farm House and we'll be back when we're in the area

Tasty Farmer's Scramble. Lupita is a a wonderful, friendly server. Nice job with the decor to match the name.

Ww came in for breakfast it was pretty busy and had to wait for a table but chose the counter instead of waiting for a table. Well we still had to wait about 20 minutes for any acknowledgement. Once we started our order the waitress was very friendly. We asked for water and it took awhile to get it. Our breakfast meals were great. They arrived in a timely manner. My friend got eggs Benedict with county potatoes, he really enjoyed it. I opted for a ranch hand breakfast with sausages, hash browns and eggs which were cooked perfectly. Overall it was a good experience with good food. Although the service was slow.

The food was great The service a-1 The seats very uncomfortable They should be changed as I could not relax or sit back Is

Yummy food. Plates are shareable and the service was great. Definitely a cute place to have brunch.

The food was delicious , tasty and hot. The coffee was delicious and better than other places I have had. The staff was super friendly, attentive and gave great recommendations. Place was clean, nice decor and felt very inviting. We will def return to eat there again!

Great service and fresh food! Good atmosphere a great family restaurant . My family highly recommend it

Food was amazing always is! But service was a 1 one star, didn't get her name but she has short hair covered in tattoos, she was very rude, obnoxious and wouldn't even let us speak and would say well "does it say it on their?!" For each question we had regrading a meal. I've never had a bad experience until her. she was making so much nose with cleaning the spoons and forks. She would rush us to order when the place was kinda lonely. would sigh for each thing we would say. We barely were eating and was already trying to pick up the plates. She would yell what do we need from across the room when she was poring coffee, she wouldn't come to our table. Even the people next to us noticed how rude she was.

It's my favorite brunch in Watsonville. I love the gee dishes. I love the hash browns. I love the chorizo scramble.

Food and service is wonderful and I believe it's family owned. Churro waffle is great!

This place in Watsonville is so good I got the chilaquiles and they are so so good! The portion size is great just the right amount the flavors are good I highly recommend recommend this place

Three words to describe this gem! Oh My God! This little place is only open for breakfast lunch. I thought I would try the breakfast. I felt like something sweet so I asked the waitress what was her favorite item. She recommended the "Churro waffle" and boy let me tell you, it was so good!! The ambiance is set in a rustic 50's farmhouse setting. 0's music playing in the background with a welcoming warm family environment. This is my new favorite breakfast place in Freedom! Highly recommended!

I ordered the Californian Omelette, and took my left overs home. Now that I got to eat them again, I noticed I was getting a crunchy texture in my food and I was caught off guard, once I looked at my omelette, It had egg shells in it... and they weren't small pieces, don't know how much of the eggshell I ate as well

Have been here for breakfast and lunch. For breakfast I like anything with the chorizo. Can't get enough of that. Huevos Rancheros is also good. Hash browns are good. For lunch the crispy chicken sandwich needs to be ordered if your hungry for sure. Have also ordered the Philly cheesesteak, not to crazy about that, kind of plain tasting to me. But it won't stop me from coming back. More menu items to try. Service is always good, friendly, and fast. Most of the time we have been here it's not to crowded so we are seated quickly and it never gets real loud inside.

Updating my previous review: I visited today for the first time in three years, decided to give them another try and I have got to say I will definitely be coming back! They updated their menu since my last visit I ordered the Chorizo Benedict not only was it large, but it was tasty! You can tell it was made in house and fresh. Our waitress was Andrea and although it was busy, she was very attentive despite a LARGE group of fire cadets that came in (I hope they tipped her well, she deserved it) Overall; everything was great, thank you Andrea for going above and beyond, and thank you farm house...I look forward to my next visit.

Great brunch. Portions are large so you can share but satisfying if looking for local delicious breakfast/brunch spot.

We ended up at the Farmhouse after California Grill and Wooden Nickle were both closed. I guess Sunday's not the right day to go to Watsonville. Anyway, Farmhouse was fine. Definitely a breakfast place. Although the tuna melt on sourdough was very good. Fries were kind of limp and not much flavor. My wife loved the four piece French toast. She said it was amazing. We sat at the counter because there were no tables available. But that was fine.

So delicious and the service was great. The churro waffle was perfectly crispy- would definitely come back and visit again!

Love the staff. I go at least1 time a week Always order a la carte. 2 medium eggs always cooked perfectly, 2 crispy bacons, and wheat toast with just the right amount of butter! Yum. If the tables are full there's always room at the counter.

Today is going to be my last time stepping a foot in this place, can't believe my family and I waited 30 minutes to be seated when there was a bunch of empty tables, also once we finally were seated inside we waited for another 20 minutes without being acknowledged or anything. Then the lady with short hair and tattoos on her arm literally took orders from other people who had just gotten there and totally ignored me and my family. Finally my family and I decided to leave the place and not order anything. We went somewhere else instead.

Friendly services Venue is clean Plenty of available parking Chips and salsa are a MUST very tasty We were a party of 7 With 2 babies Waiters was accommodating and friendly High chairs are available

My fiancé and I have been coming to the Farmhouse for years. We look forward to it and always leave happy w/ empty plates but not today. We came in this morning and were given coffee and menus but then sat there for 20-25 minutes and asked TWICE if we were ready to order but nobody came to take said order. Three different groups came in AFTER us and got their orders taken, and one got their order BEFORE us. When the waiter finally came to our table he was unapologetic and care free about the fact that we had been basically ignored the entire time we were there. We paid for our coffee and walked out. Not sure if we'll be back due to this.

The concept and the idea are amazing. But the food..... yea no. Nor is the pricing Staff used to be friendly and happy. Now they seem jaded

Amazing service the waitresses are very nice and always do my order correctly when I have dietary restrictions worth the wake up to try it's one of my regular spots

So GOOD! I have honestly not had a better breakfast at a restaurant! I used Yelp to find a breakfast restaurant while traveling to the Watsonville area. We chose The Farmhouse because it looked fresh and adorable and had good reviews. We are not disappointed!! This restaurant has fantastic service and the kitchen staff KNOWS WHAT THEY ARE DOING! Our breakfasts of the farmhouse meal and huevos rancheros along with my weekend mimosa (pineapple) were perfection! Seriously, perfection! We are very picky and opinionated diners. We appreciate quality food with great flavor as well as exceptional service. You will find that here at The Farmhouse. P.S. The pancakes are PERFECT!! P.P.S. The decor is super cute and not overdone!

Really nice place! Love the ambiance and cleanliness, also there was great service. The food was ok, nothing I would rant about. I don't think I would recommend my dish as the biscuits weren't flaky and were very large, the gravy was also a little bland and lacking sausage. French fries were VERY salty. I'll update once/if I go again. Free coffee with the meal was very much appreciated so definitely can't complain about that. Absolutely no wait to get it or rung up for the food to go. Plenty of parking.

Delicious food and fast service. Love coming here on the weekends when we do not want to cook. Everyone is friendly and they sit you pretty fast even though there are a lot of people waiting. Big portions !

What a great menu to choose from! Excellent service and the food was good. Ambience is very nice diner! We will visit many times in the future.

Wow this place is a real find! So delicious! I had a pancake that was light, fluffy, & flavorful. The smoked salmon Benedict is delectable. Using fresh perfectly cooked salmon instead of the usual cold smoked was excellent with the lemony buttery hollandaise. The English muffin was perfectly toasted and buttery. The patty melt was high quality beautiful seared beef. The sourdough and Swiss with the perfectly carmelized onions were the cherry on top. Crispy fries nicely seasoned. The fresh orange juice was also excellent. Our sever was warm friendly and representative of the restaurant and the great food. Can't wait to go again!

Great food, friendly vibe!. We all ordered the enchilada soup and it was tasty. My wife ordered the John Wayne burger and it didn't disappoint.

Had breakfast last weekend it was very good but it was a arm and a leg I'd like to try it again but have to wait until payday again

Came here for breakfast after a jump. Was $120 for five (including tip), so a bit pricey but was good and what you would expect from a breakfast place. The staff were busy but gave us good service. The coffee was tasty and I left full. The place was well attended and liked by locals, and my breakfast was standard but tasty. A good place to come to; good parking and gets the job done.

Amazing food! Fast and friendly service! Loved this restaurant for brunch with a large group!

The food was AMAZING!!! The food did not take long to be made, everything was fresh and warm. Plenty of parking, family friendly, staff is sweet, very clean location. If you are a fry lover, you will love their fries. They have regular fries or sweet potato fries. The location is pretty big and fits a lot of guests. I would recommend for breakfast lunch and dinner.

Their salmon Benedict's are my favorite Great service Food is excellent Dining area acomodares large parties Owners are always attentive Well recommended

You will not be disappointed here. Cute restaurant with good vibe! Food was delicious very, tasty and service was amazing (servers were on it). Bien movidos y la comida salió rápido. 10/10!

Went back again couldn't get away from the food the ambience is great got to watch football and sevice was a little slow but It still got there in under 5 minutes

Wow this place is delicious!! Stopped in based on the reviews and so glad we did. Food service was FAST and was the best breakfast I've had in years!! The apple juice tasted fresh and even had the pulp.... Everything was SO delicious!!!

Everything is a win here, the music is a little country but, thats the energy of the building. The staff is great, the food is awesome, and its became a regular Sunday treat for me and my spouse. We grab some chow and then walk over for service. The price is also really great, you're gonna get a good amount of food for your buck.
