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. Join us for homestyle cooking, handcrafted cocktails, local wine, friendly faces and a table that feels like home—bring the whole family! 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.

    The food was amazing, but the inside area is so small we had to have a table outside in an area that had heaters but was only partially enclosed and therefore had to wear our coats the entire time.

    Thank you for your feedback, Lauren. While we're happy to hear you enjoyed your food, we're disappointed to know you were anything but absolutely comfortable during your dining experience. We will take your note back to our team and investigate how we can keep that area a warmer temperature for patrons. Thank you for letting us know. Cheers, Your Friends at Farmheads

    Wait staff were awesome however both bartenders were very annoyed we asked them for a drink. One of them gave us water asked if we were waiting for table and never came back. Maybe both of them were having a bad night? Food unbelievable! Hostess and wait staff amazing!

    Overall good. They limited our time (even with a reservation) to 1 hour and 15 minutes … I was initially not notified of a limit and then told 90 minutes when I asked. We had to gobble our food down. It’s restaurant week, but 90 minutes with a reservation isn’t asking for much.

    Amy, thank you for your honest feedback. While we're happy to see that overall, you enjoyed your Farm-fresh bites and that our team members took care of you, we would never want you to feel rushed. We will take your note to our team and further discuss adequate timing for our diners and make sure we are allowing our guests to fully enjoy the experience. Thank you for your honesty! We hope you will join us again soon. Cheers, Your Friends at Farmheads

    We enjoyed the restaurant week brunch. Beautiful salad, indulgent pimento cheese breakfast sandwiches and rich delicious desserts. It was our first visit and we’ll definitely return to try more menu items!

    Food and service were good. A little cold inside the restaurant for me. The guy at the table next to us was eating with his coat on.

    The food was great and the service was great. However, the air was so cold! I will return here only when the weather is nicer.
