Delicious food, gorgeous ambiance, and incredibly quick service. Tried the veggie burger, the sweet potato empanadas, and the key lime pie. The veggie burger was one of the best veggie burgers I have had this year. The patty was perfectly cooked and had a lovely consistency, the burger bun was not sweet (as is often the case at many restaurants), and the mango sauce slathered on the bun added an unexpected, zingy flavour. The sweet potato empanadas (three pieces) were also delicious. The key lime pie was the highlight of the meal. The crust was crisp and flakey and the key lime was zesty and not overly sweet. The portion was massive, and easily enough for three people. What I liked the most about the ambiance was the cohesiveness of the decor and a commitment to a soft, elegant coziness. The utensils had elegant Delft motifs and the chandeliers hanging from the ceiling were chic and understated. Service was quick and the waiter was efficient and polite. Highly recommend if you are in the Lincoln Park area, particularly for brunch. read more

The food here was very good, although the portions were on the small side. Unfortunately, my dining experience was ruined by the wine service. The pours seemed noticeably light, so I politely mentioned it to our waitress. Instead of checking with the bartender or trying to make it right, she insisted it was a full 5-ounce pour and dismissed my concern. I've worked in the restaurant business, and I know how important it is to make customers feel heard. A small top-off or even an effort to address my concern would have completely changed my impression. After my visit, I happened to meet someone who said they had experienced the same thing with the wine pours on a previous visit. Whether that's a coincidence or not, it certainly made me wonder. It's a shame because I enjoyed the food, but the way this was handled makes me question whether I'll return. read more

Well this is the only photo I got since they wouldn't seat us. Then another group came in and got seated right away. And they didn't have reservations because they said as they walked in "oh blue door let's try this place out" Sadly I couldn't try it and I felt like they discriminated against us. read more

Came in for brunch. It was BUSY so definitely get a reservation if you can. Service was good. The tables are pretty close together since it is a pretty small place. I got the chilaquiles with over-medium eggs. It is a red sauce chilaquiles and it was DELICIOUS. Would absolutely come back for this and to try other items on the menu. read more

The food was really good! The chicken sandwich was juicy and the pickled onions were the special touch I didn't know it needed. The cheese curds were also really good especially with the peppers. The seating wasn't my favorite - I felt like we were practically sharing a table with our neighbors on both sides. The space was also loud and the service was slow, but it was kind of expected because of how crowded it was. read more

Amazing! One of the best meals I've had! Everything was phenomenal. We shared a few appetizers: beet tartare with plantain chips, sweet potato empanadas with chimichurri, crab cakes, and cheese curds with ranch. All awesome! The cheese curds are extremely addictive. You've been warned. The soup of the day was potato leek and I enjoyed my cup. I loved my Brussels and Kale salad!! Best salad I've had in a long time. Every bite was bursting with flavor. It was well balanced and perfect. My boyfriend really liked his salmon entree and my friend enjoyed his Cobb Salad. Fantastic cocktails too. Very smooth espresso martini and the Lavender Rita had a nice kick to it. Excellent and attentive service. Beautiful restaurant. Lovely and romantic with the dim lighting. Nice place to go for a date or special occasion. There is an upstairs too. Very spacious venue. I'm so happy my friend suggested this place. It was a very memorable meal and I highly recommend coming here. read more

For our annual New Year's brunch, we chose Blue Door Farmstand. Having been to Blue Door Kitchen & Garden before, I wanted to try another one of their restaurants. The aesthetics were charming, original and very farm style. We were seated upstairs, but there is an elevator if needed. We ordered several appetizers and they did not disappoint. The drinks were stiff and delicious, and the coffee was just as good. Our waiter was friendly and attentive. By the time my entrée arrived, I was already a little full, but everything I tried was fantastic. I would definitely come back! read more

We were super hungry and decided to get a quick brunch at blue door. We have been to their other location, blue door kitchen and garden so we're excited to try farm stand. They had a 45 min wait and we got a table right in time. The service was fast. The ambience is cute and cozy. We got some mimosas, veggie burger with salad and grilled cheese with tomato soup. Except for the tomato also, the food was very very very scrumptious. It's hard to find a decent veggie burger and blue door nailed it. I will definitely be back! read more

Perfect hot toddy and exceptional carrot cake. Will def be back. read more

A solid brunch with a cute, rustic yet airy ambiance. The perfect place when you're looking for a slightly healthier and elevated take on classic dishes. The carrot hummus is a great opener, hard to go wrong but had refreshing veggies + great texture. The sweet potato empanada shareables were delicious - perfectly salted which is harder to achieve than one might think. The Greek omelet I ordered was okay - tasty but also nothing special! Service was great, place was busy but they made you feel at home. read more

Got a big table for a casual bridal shower. We were a little squished into a corner and the service was alright. The brown line wrap was pretty yummy and decently sized. Mostly egg. I wish it had come with a salsa or aioli or something. It also got pretty soggy. Still tasty though. read more

We went here for brunch on restaurant week. It's a nice venue with good space and light. We sat in the front. We split the apps of sweet potato empanadas and sweet potato hummus which were both very tasty. I had cornbeef hash and eggs. It was good and the portion was large. I had to take half home which air fried great tbh. But looking around the dining room, they had numerous breakfast platters that looked super tasty too. It's a cute spot. Service was friendly and accommodating. read more

What a lovely place! Blue Door Farm Stand reminds me of a quaint French inspired restaurant. The atmosphere feels relaxed and chill. As Restaurant Week aficionados, we like to go on gastronomical adventures. Blue Door is one being on our list. I found the wait staff accommodating. They addressed the problem very quickly. The server quickly came back with a salad with no onions. The manager came back with a small cup of honey. Which I really appreciate. The food tastes wonderful. I enjoy eating the vegetables burrito. It comes with avocado, eggs, red peppers, and cucumbers. Divine! The menu for Restaurant Week offers Tiramisu for dessert. Of course, we need to have tiramisu being one of our favorites! Come and enjoy the fresh and delicious food. Bring a date, family or friends. read more

Our daughter took us out to lunch to the Blue Door Farm Stand as it's one of her favorites. It's now one of our favorites as well. The interior is set up very well and is nicely decorated. There is also a second floor with even more seating so don't be fooled by the small interior of the first floor. Our wait staff were prompt and friendly and anticipated all of our needs. We were presented with the best dilemma of having to choose between many delicious sounding option, which guarantees that we will return. I love it when restaurants offer a simple menu with fresh ingredients. My Cobb salad was one of the best I've had. There is ample street parking and the restaurant is close to several shopping area. Stop by the next time you're in the area and you will quickly discover a gem! read more

Stopped into Blue Door Farmstand with a colleague for a quick lunch, and it ended up being such a great experience! I really liked the simplicity of the menu everything felt approachable, fresh, and thoughtfully put together. My colleague ordered the fig and arugula sandwich and raved about the plantain chips on the side. I went with the burger and fries, and I have to say the pickles on the burger stood out they added such a great flavor that made the whole thing memorable. The atmosphere was warm and inviting with the open doors and airy, open-concept layout. It's the kind of space that makes you want to linger. Service was also excellent the staff was kind, professional, and attentive without being overbearing. Prices were very reasonable given the quality of the food and overall experience. I'd definitely come back, not only to try more from the menu but also to explore some of the little shops nearby. Highly recommend if you're in Chicago and looking for a spot that combines great food, good vibes, and fair pricing! read more

Had a very enjoyable dinner here. I got the short rib. Portion size was generous and flavor was great. Stewed in carrot, tomato, etc. very tasty. My only complaint was that they had no whisky cocktails. But I was able to try a nice cherry chouffe beer instead. Service was nice. It is a bit hectic on a Friday evening. But overall great experience! read more

Came in during a weekday afternoon for lunch. It wasn't busy and I was able to get seated right away. The hostess was very sweet and gave a warm welcome in. However, the remainder of my service was kind of the opposite. My waiter wasn't rude, but he seemed like he didn't care. He just took our order and gave us the check. Another waiter would come by more frequently to fill up our water and take away our plates . This lackluster service wasn't a huge deal to me until I saw a man, who seemed to be the manager, approach the table adjacent to me and ask them how their meal / service was going. He then proceeded to kindly ask if any of them were Yelp reviewers and advised them that writing a review would be appreciated. One gentlemen at the table stated that he was a Yelp reviewer and would post something (not sure if he did). Shortly after the man, who I believed to be the manager, came by with glasses of wine for their table... I just think that's interesting. I didn't see any other table get this treatment, so just curious as to why these people in particular were singled out. As for the food, I originally came in to try the Brussel and Kale salad that people were raving about on tiktok. I ended up ordering the Lincoln Park combo with the Brussel Kale Salad, a half grilled cheese and a cup of tomato soup. While I will say the salad was delicious, the grilled cheese and tomato soup wasn't anything amazing. Would I go back? Meh, maybe to order takeout. For others who would still like to try out this restaurant, street parking can be a pain if it's busy so be advised. Additionally, the restaurant does take reservations and I believe they are on OpenTable so plan your visit in advance. read more

A cute interior, my friends and I came here for brunch. We were seated immediately but even though it wasn't super busy, it took a long time for our food to come out. I got the cobb salad with no bleu cheese which wasn't bad. My group got the grilled cheese/tomato soup (my friend really like it), the sesame chicken salad, and the burger with sweet potato fries. Overall a little slow and the chicken seemed like it could've been less dry/higher quality but a good aesthetic restaurant that's relatively healthy and that you can grab last minute reservations at. read more

A friend and I had dinner at Blue Door Farm Stand on August 15. The restaurant is attractive. We were seated right away per our reservation. We ordered a small plate and a Club Sandwich to share. The menu said the Farmhouse Club Sandwich contained turkey, ham, bacon, lettuce, tomato, avocado, djonnaise, cheddar and fries. We expected the usual double sandwich from the Club name and the $22 price. We expected farm fresh ingredients based on the restaurant's name. We were served a thin single sandwich with clearly pre-packaged meat (the thin single slice of turkey was a circle shape), there was no bacon in half of the sandwich, no avocado at all, and a pre-packaged single slice of American cheese. I will not be returning to Blue Door Farmstand read more

As a girl with friends who are always late, I love that BDFS seat you before your entire party arrives. The space is shabby chic and cute. The service was sweet but slow. Took over 15 minutes to be welcomed and put my drink order in. After ordering, the food took almost an hour. It was a busy Saturday at noon, but not THAT busy. The food was fine. I ordered the Farmstand Burger - fine. My friend got the Arugula and Fig sandwich - fine. We enjoyed catching up while waiting for the food, but the food wasn't worth the long wait. read more

Booked a brunch reservation and I will definitely be coming back. While I waited for my party, the host offered me to sit at the bar which I was really excited about because I NEEDED a coffee haha. The transition from the bar to our table was so smooth and everyone was really kind. Most importantly though, the food was delicious! I had a soup, chilaquiles, and a zucchini muffin for dessert. The chilaquiles were perfectly crispy and so flavorful. I wish I had ordered zucchini muffins to go because I couldn't stop thinking about it for a few days after haha. read more

Love this place for lunch or brunch! Brussel sprout salad is super good. It's a really cute spot and I love the ambiance.

I visited Blue Door Farm Stand for lunch today with my sister. It was a last-minute decision, and while the ambiance was cozy, our experience was a bit of a mixed bag. Since there weren't any regular tables available, we sat at the bar, which worked fine. I ordered a drink--pretty sure it was called the Bourbon Berry--and it was fantastic! Refreshing and well-balanced, it was definitely the highlight of the meal. For my entrée, I went with the Farmstand Burger with bacon, egg, and avocado, but unfortunately, it fell short of expectations. The burger was overcooked and dry, and the egg wasn't runny (which is kind of what I was hoping for). To top it off, they didn't have BBQ or steak sauce, so I couldn't salvage it. I barely got through half of the burger. While I appreciated the friendly waitress and the drinks, I left feeling underwhelmed by the food. I'd be open to trying something else from their menu next time, but I wouldn't recommend the burger. read more

Five stars for being able to seat a table of 8 people last minute for a Friday lunch! We were looking for a restaurant to seat our large group around the Armitage area, and we're so lucky to have found Blue Door that was so accommodating. The menu is a crowd pleaser. Big salads, burgers, an abundance of sandwiches and soups. You really can't go wrong here no matter what dietary restrictions you or your group might have. We started with the cheese curds and crab cakes. Visually, the curds were beautiful but when we received them, they were a bit cold and stuck together. Still delicious, but if they'd been hot - they would have been super super delicious. The crab cake was tasty but not exceptional. My friend and I split the brussel salad and burger with fries. The salad was great, and the burger was better than expected. Very, very good double patty with perfect fries. Would definitely come back and recommend this restaurant to friends that are in the area. Not quite a destination restaurant, but a reliable space for big groups! read more
