The Farmhouse

I hate to give a negative review but I shouldn’t feel bad. Not only did everyone around us put their entire winter gear back on after being there a minute (coats, stockings, etc) the ceiling fans were running in December, and it was absolutely FREEZING! There was no heavy entry drapery to block all the freezing dusting wind each time the front door was opened and all our tables, including the bar was right there. So we ate shivering. We told our super amazing and kind waitress and she said they have blankets. But who should need blankets at a restaurant? There were gusts of wind coming through the uninsulated brick walls and windows. But worst of all, we were there with a wheelchair bound friend and she couldn’t use the normal public restroom. Not because it wasn’t able to be built to accommodate wheelchair blind guests, it totally could have. But it was an over site or intentionally done to save money. Which meant that in order for her to use a restroom she could access, it meant she had to go through the entire kitchen passing all the cooks and food to go to the back room. It’s embarrassing to have to draw attention and make it harder for those with special needs. Our food was good. Standard. It was our incredible waitress who was the absolute best that this place got 2 stars. We loved her. I wish the owner would be more thoughtful in creating an environment for all and comfortably. It’ll take these changes for me to go back.

Have tried to eat here in the past by walking in and could never get a table. Made a reservation 3 weeks out for 4 people early in the morning. We sat immediately and ordered drinks and food. We ordered the omelette, salmon bagel, BLT, veggie Benedict, and the smashed potatoes. Everything was great. The smashed potatoes were amazing! The salmon bagel was a bit intense on the flavoring but all round this was a good experience. The cost was good too, $150 for 4 people with bloody Mary’s. Would recommend!

WOW!! Christopher was a great server and the food was beyond delicious! Executed with perfection, they had an amazing atmosphere, plenty of seating in two rooms and a bar top. We will definitely be back to try other menu items but I recommend the cinnamon roll, salmon bagel and blueberry lemon pancakes. I didn't get a picture of the cinnamon roll or pancakes because we dug in. Absolutely exquisite!

We had typed in breakfast around us and there was three choices. Farmhouse was about 2 minutes from convention center where we're at KC retro 2025. We walked in and with outside seating available we were able to get a table immediately. The breakfast menu is very simple to navigate. You had four+ choices in each category. You have savory and sweet options. I choose the chicken fried steak. Adam choose the chicken and biscuits as did our friend Cash. The hash was more like fries for as think as they were. The corn salsa on top of the chicken fried steak was interesting. I definitely recommend stopping by and having a try. I think you'll enjoy it.

The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, making it a pleasant place to enjoy a meal. The food tastes fresh and hearty, with portions that feel just right. Each dish has a homemade quality with flavors that are well-balanced. The service is friendly and attentive, which adds to the overall experience. It’s a nice spot for a casual meal that still feels special

I’ve become a regular within a short period of time at this restaurant after moving in to the city, simply because of this restaurant’s amazing experience. The atmosphere is relaxed and positive. The staff is made up of a solid team that is very tentative despite how busy it tends to get. The menu is always impressive because it’s concentrated which guarantees high quality. I became an instant fan of this place and it’s really a gem in this city.

I had the country fried steak with fries on the side. The steak came out crispy with plenty of gravy and the sunny side up eggs made it even better. The fries were hot and salty and rounded out the meal perfectly. The whole vibe felt relaxed and welcoming. I’ll definitely come back when I want real comfort food.

The Farmhouse has a very simple menu but it is absolutely delicious. We ordered the Stuffed French Toast with blackberries and white chocolate shavings and the full order of biscuits and gravy. For drinks we got a mimosa and a Breakfast Old Fashion, both delicious!

Wow!!! Just Wow!!! If you ever find yourself in Kansas City and want some awesome food, service, and ambiance this is the place. The farmhouse is one on the best breakfast I have ever had. Starting off with the warm banana-walnut bread with chocolate chips and whipped pecan butter. The rest of the food was delicious as well. This place is amazing!!!

Stopped here for brunch while in town and were seated within 5 minutes of arriving on a Friday mid-morning. Our server was quick to check in on us and offer assistance if we had any questions. It also happened to be Halloween so all the employees were dressed up which was super fun. It's a smaller menu, so something to keep in mind. We opted to split the Thanes Smashed Potatoes to start. They were not what I was expecting with the sauce reminding me of a Thai peanut sauce. I still enjoyed them but probably wouldn't order again. For my main course, I got the veggie omelet which was great. Perfect cheese to veggie ratio. This is in a nice area with ample street parking and close to city market.

I got the Bloom Bakery Brioche, two pieces stuffed with vanilla bean mascarpone, blackberry compote, and shaved white chocolate, absolutely divine. Every bite felt like a perfect balance of sweet and creamy. But the real star? The Thane's Smashed Potatoes. Local salt & vinegar potatoes, smashed and fried crispy with rooster sauce , literally the best potatoes in the city. I'm still talking about them. Insane. So good. Even the lemonade was perfect: sparkling, refreshing, and not too sweet. If you're looking for an incredible brunch experience, The Farmhouse is it.

Be prepared to get on the waiting list on a Saturday. Fortunately, you're in a great area to walk around and explore the market. The cinnamon roll and thanes potatoes were out of this world. Our server was awesome. Only complaint would be noise.

This is a cute and fun place to go. It's sits right in the heart of The River Market in KC. I've been here for lunch and breakfast but today was special. A couple friends were in town from Chicago and so we had brunch. They had banana bread and cinnamon rolls on special today. Gosh they were so tasteful! We had regular breakfast there as well and really enjoyed our meals. So so good! Then we went a few blocks away to shop at the farmers market. Waitress and host at The Farmhouse was so friendly. Our food was delicious! (See pics)! Highly recommend.!

Food is top tier! I order a seasonal cocktail the cranberry Aperol spritz which was so refreshing and well balanced. For my meal I ordered one of their specials which was the Torta and it did not disappoint. The meat was tender and juicy and all the flavors were done well together. The fries were fresh cut and just the eight amount of crunch. Atmosphere was great as we sat on the patio in the shade. Service was fantastic! Quick and friendly and attentive. Halley was so nice and recommended dishes which made it easier to decide. Only con for this place is the charged a 3% fee for using a credit card and I had no idea. I wish that would have been displayed or communicated prior to paying. I would have paid cash honestly. So that did not really sit well with me.

This place is very busy. Lots of people waiting. We had made a reservation and so we got in pretty quick. We ordered a French press coffee, a cold brew and a diet coke. The cold brew took a long time to come. I was surprised as cold brew should have been the easiest to prepare. Our server had go be reminded multiple times. And it seemed at times he really didn't want to be working today. Ambiance is nice. Chill farmhouse vibe. We ordered a cinnamon roll to share. Hubby ordered biscuit and gravy. I ordered the palmberg veggie omelette. I had ordered my omelette not too dry and it was heavenly! Kudos to the chef!! It was infused with leek and the mushrooms and spinach on the omelette was a heavenly pairing. I added sausage to my omelette and I have to say their sausage is also made from scratch. I had a wonderful brunch. Thank you. Even as we were walking out,there was a long queue of people waiting to come in for a meal. That should be testament to the food. Great job!

My order was carry out. River market parking can be a challenge but not on this weekday. CHICKEN N' BISCUIT is a nice breakfast item the combines chicken, crisp/moist biscuits, country gravy and an egg your way. The chicken was a nice sized breast that had flavorful and crisp. The gravy was nice and thick with its own distinctive country seasoning. The entree was delicious! Both the hostess and waitress were hospitable upon pickup.

Stopped by on a Wednesday morning on the way out of town! We have been before and really wanted to get back! It was a little busier & we were happy we made reservations! My husband was less then satisfied with his meal & id have to say the same. It was not as good as it was 3 years ago. Prices were steep for what we got. The server seemed kinda annoyed we were there or got seated in her area, and dropped the check off while we were still eating. We had to ask for water multiple times. Probably won't come back, but maybe it was a bad day!

This is the best brunch I've ever had in my life. Father's Day 2025. My wife and I shared the corned beef hash, and the blueberry sweet cheese muffin, which was a special today. I got a Coke and she got an iced tea and they were in quart glasses. Lovely. No refills required. I eat corned beef hash as my go to add a lot of breakfast restaurants and this one is so far beyond anything I've ever had before that it's ridiculous. The staff and atmosphere here are so cool! Ask for Christopher for your server. He's AMAZING!!! If we can't come to the farmhouse for brunch going forward, we'll just skip it. Thanks to our CM Sarah G for her reviews and suggestion to come here. Just wow!!!!

This is a rustic brunch spot in the river market area. Parking can be a hassle especially during weekends, and you have to pay. Food is decent but nothing crazy impressive. Service was okay, a bit slow at times. I asked for extra chipotle butter and hot honey for my chicken n' biscuit, which was good.

Christopher went above and beyond to provide a great customer service experience. He was able to bring us a cinnamon roll though they may have been out. He went out of the way to help recommend what would be a good food fit for each of us based off of preferences. The corned beef hash was fantastic. We are also sat by the window which was lovely. The environment was warm and lively. The man who brought us our food was also kind and attentive. A kind and delicious food service experience.

Some of the best food I have had in my travels to KC area. From start to finish, not one complaint! We started with the Cinnamon Roll, and Biscuits and Gravy, AMAZING! The French Press coffee was exceptional. We continued with a Mixed Berry Parfait, Country Fried Steak, and Farmhouse Omelette. The table would agree that the CFS and poblano grits was the "entree" show stealer(the grits were a lil tight, and could have used a lil more sauce-YUM) Service was prompt and efficient. The table we sat at was slightly tight for our party of 4, but we made it work. Definitely will be back! We did have a reservation for a Friday noonish sitting.

Food here is pretty good. Service was decent. The time it takes for food to be prepared takes a long time. Maybe 30min or more since order and when our food arrived. This is a good brunch spot and, if you expect to be here for a while and drink, it's worth getting a larger format drink (like a bottle of wine). I really liked the chicken and biscuit. The lemon ricotta pancake was also very good (especially the lemon ricotta). Cocktails -the coffee old fashioned as pretty good. The coffee is a bit of an after taste but enjoyable nonetheless -the espresso martini is a "homemade" version so there's some sort of cream or dairy. It's tasty if you want a spiked chocolate milk with cinnamon notes, but definitely not a classic espresso martini (so don't expect it)

Food was great! Service on the other hand, mediocre at best. They were not very busy and the food was pretty slow to come out. Ambiance is okay, and food was good, but service made me question my choice for an area with so many options.

This is kid friendly great food amazing drinks French toast, and pancakes for kids the waiter was so nice and funny the service was great the surroundings and music work great

Service was great and food came out fast. The sausage and gravy was good. It was your fundamental biscuits and gravy. The sausage looked and tasted not the best. Just not the type of sausage that I would have picked or liked.

Loved eating here! Made an online reservation a few days ahead. Would definitely recommend a reservation as people were waiting to be seated as we arrived. Parking is street/metered only. Wasn't too terrible finding a spot on a Saturday morning. Ambiance is cute! Even though it was a full house, it didn't seem overly crowded or loud. The exposed bulb lighting was a little distracting. Partner and I split the cinnamon roll, fresh fruit side, and the palmberg veggie omelet. Would definitely recommend them all! The cinnamon roll was my favorite and I would come back just to have it again! The side of potatoes came with a homemade ketchup I didn't super love, but I appreciated it nonetheless.

I have made the reservation for the table of 5 (last Wednesday) for our Sunday brunch in OpenTable app. I am so glad we did it. We saw a lot of people waiting for a table today. They don't have a lot of space in the waiting area so you may need to wait outside & it's not good if the weather gets bad. So, please make sure to reserve your table before going there. We waited just about 5 minutes for our table today. It was very busy this morning. Loved the ambiance & lots of natural light in there. We also got a cute little baby chair for our little one. We started with some pineapple juice & coffee. We ended up ordering a lot of food. I ordered Lemon ricotta pancakes with sausage patty. Pancakes were delicious & I was so glad it was not too sweet. Sausage was perfectly cooked! Others loved what they ordered too. It took about 20-25 minutes to get the food we ordered otherwise it was a good first impression for me at The Farmhouse!!!

Great locally sourced brunch! Plenty of servers, so we didn't have to wait long. Near City Market, so we enjoyed ambling through the market and heading over for lunch. Right on the trolley route so you can easily get there from downtown.

Everything was great. Atmosphere, service, food, vibe. Best biscuits and gravy ever, and that cinnamon roll needs to come with a warning! Went back second day and was served by Christopher both times. Highly recommend.

yeah, no. Cute place and I want to Love it but falls short. I guess the cinnamon roll was hard to get past. so dry and bready'. seriously needed twin to 3x the cinnamon mix. not my style. The omelet was good but nothing special. We left and went somewhere else for a treat after.

We found this place searching for places close to our AC hotel. Let me tell you folks - this place is impressive and has a much better done breakfast experience. Here's a run down: - They say they're using local farms...and I have no doubt this true. Why? Well, the eggs I had for starters - a real deep rich yolk and a smooth balanced egg white - those are real deal eggs. Then the sausage used in the sausage gravy....again...not your run of the mill basic sausage...that sausage was far superior. - Country fried steak: I deconstructed mine as I don't like my food mixed all together. The corn relish topper was good. The potatoes were great (finally, a place that actually gets the potatoes cooked well and browned off nicely). And the chicken fried steak had a great taste and an easy chew. - Sausage gravy: Some excellent stuff here. This gravy was made from scratch and isn't that crappy pre-fab gravy crap. This place is making a real gravy....with a deeper roux color....and it (does not) have some uncooked flour taste. This stuff was seasoned well and a joy to eat. - The service....uhm...way above average service....an uncommon level of service even on this day. Oh....I forgot the cinnamon roll: a big sucker it is....drenched in icing....and it was real good. Don't go thinking your table needs more than (1)...it's big. My only knock on the place...which isn't hardly the end of world. And I do have the pic attached off chicken fried steak (for when the owner/mgr sees my post....it looks like they're good and review these): My entree didn't have much gravy. I asked for a side of gravy....and I got jabbed $4 for a side of gravy. Seeing how gravy was part my actual entree...seems a bit excessive...especially since that gravy was their country gravy...no sausage content. But no matter my one minor knock of a gravy up charge.....let me tell you....this place does breakfast great. This place is paying attention to all the little details. And it's a real winner of a spot in KC!

Farm fresh and FUN! Our go-to spot for weekend brunch to decompress and laugh over the best food and towering mimosas. Everything here is truly farm fresh and we leave every time full of great food and setting the tone for a joyous day. This needs to be on your KC bucket list. Make a reservation ahead of time and you'll have no problem!

Lateeeee review alert (oopsie daisy) I came here while visiting a friend who moved to KC this year and she says this is the place she takes all of her visitors. You generally need a reservation to go, and it looks like they are pretty busy right upon opening. That's when we went, and we were done within 40 minutes- talk about fast! As the name implies, it's farmhouse decor with mason jar water glasses and wooden furniture. Food was incredible. Their French press coffee is fine, it's a good value with about 4 cups for like $7. The cinnamon roll is huge and delicious and to-die-for. The eggs Benedict platter is also amazing and has probably been the serving to really turn me on to eggs benny! This out-of-stater would sure love to come again!

Very nice trendy place. They offer a limited menu with some different types of selections for sure. Prices are a little steep for breakfast for what u get but that's also the trend... waitress are very friendly and the food french toast and the cinnamon roll were really good. However I had the corned beef hash and it's definitely not what I expected. It was a soupy gravy mess, with chunks of actual corned beef which itself was tasty but not the entire presentation. The coffee comes in a 4 small cup French press pot. No free refills we really like coffee so that sucks. Oh and no stirrers or spoons?

We visited The Farmhouse and ordered two Eggs Benedict, one cinnamon roll, and two coffees. Eggs Benedict - really tasty, no complaints there. Cinnamon roll - decent, about 4/5, but could have been softer and more moist. Coffee - honestly the worst I've ever had, even worse than Starbucks. It tasted like black water. They actually forgot our coffee and only brought it out about a minute after delivering our food. Not sure if that affected the taste, but either way, it was undrinkable. Service was poor - slow, inattentive, and they completely forgot part of our order. Bottom line: 2 stars only because the Eggs Benedict were delicious and the cinnamon roll was decent. Coffee was terrible and the service was disappointing.

My friend and I were looking for a nice brunch place and came across The Farmhouse. It was a little busy but we were seated right away. Looking at the menu it was very hard to choose because everything sounded very good. I decided on eggs Benedict because that is my very favorite breakfast. It not only was the best shaved ham I think I've ever had but the best eggs Benedict as well. Oh and the bread was challah bread, wow. So tasty! I really want to come back here and have that again, but I also want to try other things. Great service great atmosphere great food. I'll be back.

This was a spot serving brunch with a farm to table setting. The inside was nicely decorated and had a comforting feel to it. The menu had a number of interesting options to choose from while the service was friendly. I went with the Cowboy butter sirloin ($19). This was an 8 oz. Angus sirloin with two eggs, pickled onions, roasted jalapeno chimichurri, and chipotle-herb butter with crispy smashed potatoes. I opted for the steak to be cooked medium rare and it came out perfect. This overall was great. The sear on the steak to the slight heat of the chimichurri made for a very appetizing dish. The butter was a nice touch. My only small issue was the sunny side up eggs I chose. The yolks were a little too hard, but not a huge deal. I also tried the huevos rancheros, which were tasty as well. Will I go back? Yes.

I ordered the Farmhouse omelette! I would say it was pretty good solid 6.5/10! I do wish the menu was a little larger and a little pricy for what you get.

Highly recommend making a reservation if you want to avoid a wait. We had a reservation for 10:30 on a Saturday and were seated immediately after receiving a text that our table was ready. My husband and I ordered: Eggs Benedict (4.5/5): very tasty with a buttery challah bread and a generous amount of ham. The side of potatoes were diced small and very crispy. This dish would be a 5/5 if the potatoes were a little lighter on the salt. The ketchup tasted homemade with some small bits of tomatoes, it was sweet and more similar to salsa than Heinz. Farmhouse Pho (3.5/5): this was on their seasonal menu. The bowl was on the smaller side, it was light on noodles but was meaty. The meat and egg were seasoned well but the broth was not very hot. The rare steak wasn't quite cooked enough. It had all the makings of a great dish, but the broth needs to be at a rolling boil before adding to really seal the deal. French Press Coffee (5/5): very smooth and tasty! Worth it. This is a cute spot and completely full on a Saturday morning. Despite how busy it was, service was wonderful. They brought a new bowl of pho after I shared the broth wasn't hot enough. Everyone was friendly and we had a wonderful brunch.

Excellent spot for breakfast not a wide variety of breakfast items on the menu but they definitely focus on their items on their menu and everything that we had was excellent. The best breakfast potatoes I've ever eaten in my life

Delicious breakfast! Highly recommend making a reservation if you're going for weekend brunch as it's minimal seating in a popular area. I would say it's a little overpriced for the standard breakfast dishes on their menu but would recommend!

Incredibly friendly service and pineapple mimosas were the highlights here. My friend got the eggs Benedict and lemon-ricotta pancakes; I got the chicken fried steak and eggs. Pancakes were (not surprisingly) super sweet, more like dessert for breakfast. The chicken fried steak was thin, a bit dry, and not very flavorful, but the over-easy eggs were perfect and the white-cheddar poblano grits were good. Ambiance was very nice; we sat at the table in the middle of the front picture window. Everything was clean. Would return but order something else.

The atmosphere at this place is very welcoming along with all the staff. The food was great and the cinnamon roll was fantastic!!

First time at The Farmhouse. Glad we made a reservation, this place gets busy. Cool rustic feel with wood posts and high ceilings. We had the Chicken n' Biscuit and the Corned Beef Hash. Chicken was crispy and covered in country gravy over a biscuit, very tasty. The hash had roasted potatoes, onions and peppers with corned beef and a black pepper cream sauce. Really enjoyed the corned beef and the sauce was delicious. Adding a biscuit would have been a good idea to get all that sauce! Huge plus the restaurant is right next to a street car stop.

I absolutely love this place and would go back in a heart beat. Make a reservation if you don't want to wait, but the wait would be worth it. It is adjacent to the farmer's market and river, so a great location. The food tasted ultra fresh and home cooked. The cinnamon roll with the bacon was a good mix of salty and sweet. The biscuits and gravy was amazing and the hot honey was spot on with the flavors. This place has lots of varied seating. The service was great; very well staffed and the staff seemed to work together well. I would recommend it for catching up with adult friends for brunch or a nice meal before walking the market.

A great brunch menu with great breakfast cocktails! The portions were very good. I got the eggs Benny and decided not to get an extra side, and it was definitely enough. We also had the breakfast old fashioned that was very good! Fast, friendly service, nice atmosphere. Would return!

Make a reservation! Showed up with lots of open tables but had to wait 30 minutes as everyone else already seemed to know you make your reservation in advance and just walk in when ready for a weekend brunch time. Maybe less necessary during the week but we were hungry and perturbed to wait so long. The food was great though and the environment is lovely. The he cinnamon roll is one of the best I've had. Chicken biscuit sandwich was super flavorful and delish. My partner got the special which was also very tasty. Great place for brunch--probably one of the best in the city from our experience!

Went there on a Saturday morning before a Current game. We sat on the patio, which was very nice on this morning. The restaurant was packed and we did not have reservations. We ordered coffee and we were brought a French press coffee. The coffee was lukewarm. A pot and/or cup warmer would have been nice. I had the Chicken and Biscuit. I thought the portion size was small for the price. The chicken was stringy and difficult to cut. I thought the gravy was tasteless. My partner had chicken fried steak that they said was crispy and tasty. Probably 50/50 if we will return in the future.

Delicious! Such a fun spot in the river market with outdoor patio seating for those sunnny days. Food is high quality and super yummy, will come back to enjoy some more items on the menu!

The food was great and the service was great. Very different then were i normal go. It seem like a place like Cheers but with food. I would go back.

Food was fantastic, we had no wait time showing up around 9:30 on a Wednesday morning and our server Victoria was nice and attentive during our meal. Atmosphere is light and fun. Would definitely recommend for anyone visiting KC.

Cinnamon rolls were amazing! Best I've had in awhile. They can easily feed four people or if you're like me and love cinnamon rolls, two! The pesto pasta was also amazing and tangy. Loved the fresh flavors. I will be back. It is expensive but the food is worth it.

Just the experience here is overall disappointing. Waited 45 mins for a table, sat down. Ordering food, everything is out. Coffee, Salmon - which is the weekend special. The table next to us, which ordered after, were served quicker. Pouched eggs - not it. They were dry. Overall the experience here was not great. Wish I could recommend, but it's a no for me.

The Farmhouse is a cute local brunch place in the River Market. I was intrigued when I walked by and saw the cozy (and packed) interior. Although nothing stands out on their menu, everything I've tried has been really good. French toast, traditional breakfast, etc. Service has always been great, even on weekends. We even had a large group one on the weekend, but with a reservation, it was a breeze. I'm intrigued by their mimosa tower, and hope to try it sometime soon. I 100% recommend this place. Like everything in city market, parking can be a little tricky.

Wowowowowow this place is good!! You can tell everything is made from scratch using quality ingredients down to the toast and jam. The biggest compliment our party had was all the food was individually outstanding despite the business of the place on a Sunday morning before the Super Bowl. I'm not typically a corn beef hash person but the high veggie count pulled me in and now it'll be hard to try something else on our guaranteed next visit. Not pictured was amazing French press and espresso martini which delivered on expectations. Service was quick and friendly and we got in relatively fast for a group of 4 on a busy Sunday with no reservations at prime breakfast time. 10/10 experience!

For our last meal in KC we booked The Farmhouse for breakfast. Located nearby City Market it is a wonderful and very busy farm to table place. I ordered the brisket tamale with eggs, Cotija cheese, and microgreens. It was fantastic. I never get fresh tamale as back east and this was a joy to eat. Every bite was fantastic. My Daughter got the lemon ricotta pancakes with a side of bacon. She loved it. The coffee was good and string a d the service was exceptional. If I'm in KC again this is a definite. Put it on your bucket list

Service not so good. Waited for about 30 minutes for egg dishes and pancakes. Pancakes came out cold that butter would not melt. Other fishes came out lukewarm. Would not recommend as a good breakfast place! Very pricey for food that is ok.
