Don't feel like cooking? The Farmhouse Restaurant is the most expansive grocery store cafe in the area. There were so many options for lunch, that I had a hard time choosing. This was my first visit. There are a number of chicken options, so my husband picked up a 2-piece fried chicken meal that comes with 2 sides. The sides are from the in-store deli. The chicken is hot, fresh and juicy. The batter is crispy. The house coleslaw is light and fresh, without a ton of mayo. The roasted Brussel sprouts are fabulous. The meal came with a piece of fresh cornbread for only $7.99. What a deal! There were six fresh soups to choose from and I tried the Seafood Gumbo. The soup is really spicy (which I loved) with fresh okra and shrimp. The soup was pretty good for Indiana gumbo. They make burgers to order and have an expansive salad bar. The options are endless from the deli. Sandwiches looked amazing. The cafe is open seating with high ceilings. They were pretty busy during lunch hour. There is a water canister that was empty. We had to ask several times for the canister to be refilled and it was eventually filled. The staff is friendly and some were engaging. Most of the tables were clean. They have happy hour beer and app specials and even a trivia night. The food is reasonably priced with lots of options. The cafe is a great place to bring the family when you don't want to cook. read more

We stopped at the Harvest Market to do a little grocery shopping. While we were there we ate at the Farmhouse restaurant. I ordered the Catfish dinner. Overall, it was good. I do wish the fish and the sides were not covered in salt. read more

Farmhouse Restaurant - Catfish dinner - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Carmel, Indiana

We visited the Farmhouse Restaurant for Easter Sunday brunch. The restaurant is inside the Niemann's Harvest Market grocery store. The cost was $20 for an adult, which we thought was very reasonable. They had a very diverse brunch buffet. You could get both breakfast and lunch options. For breakfast, they had hashbrowns, bacon, and biscuits and gravy, just to name a few. They also had an assortment of cereals for children. For lunch you could get prime rib, ham, salmon, fried chicken, and shrimp cocktail. The sides included a majority of the items in their deli case. Sides were such things as mashed potatoes, green beans, macaroni and cheese, etc. They also had a large salad bar which consisted of not only your basic salad ingredients but many different kinds of side salads. You could get pasta salad, seafood salad, coleslaw, potato salad, and cucumber and tomato salad. Again, this is just to name a few. The options were plentiful. Finally, there was a very large dessert area that included cake, muffins, cookies, and pastries. They served the buffet from 9 AM to 2 PM. We arrived at around 11 AM. They were very busy at this time. In fact, it was difficult to find a table. They were even seating outside. Around 11:45 AM the crowd lightened and tables became more available. However, when we left at about 12:15 PM, it was getting busy again. In fact, when we left, they had run out of prime rib and gravy for the biscuits and gravy. The good news is they replaced the prime rib with another lunch option. They put out barbecue ribs, which looked very good. The service was wonderful. They were constantly cleaning the self-serve buffet areas and restocking food items. There were also several management individuals in the vicinity, helping out and guiding guests. When they saw that it was crowded, they began setting up additional tables and reconfiguring the floor layout. We have been to several other holiday brunch buffets in the city. This one, by far, had the largest selection of items. There was definitely something for everyone! We will return for another brunch buffet offering. Recommendation is to get there early! read more

Cute little spot. Quiet. They had it done up for Christmas... love that. They have little stations with games set up to play and a "fire" going. The guy was nice enough to put on the Army Navy football game that we wanted to watch. The food was just okay. We shared the Mediterranean Platter. It was okay. There wasn't enough pita served for the "stuff" to be eaten with. Everybody ordered the Niemann Burger except me. I ordered the Asian Wrap. Two out of the three burgers - the buns - were "stamped". That's a cute little touch. The cheesy mac I ordered with my wrap was not hot. I could tell it was not fresh. But when we took it home and stuck that in the microwave... so good. It was nice to see the guy with his wife and kids. Made my heart warm. The bathrooms are clean. There is a lot for parking. Would I go back? No. But I didn't hate it. read more

Extremely disappointed. I don't think I've ever started a review with those words but they apply here. Let me start with a little back story... My kids and I take my wife out for breakfast every year for Mother's Day. (We usually don't go on the actual day to avoid the crowds). This year, we picked the Farmhouse Restaurant after hearing good things about their brunch. That brings us back to the present. Upon entering the restaurant, we proceeded to the cashier to pay for our brunch. Three of us ordered the brunch while my oldest daughter went for some sushi. As we left the register and went to the buffet line, we quickly noticed that they only had breakfast items on the line. I went back to the cashier to ask about lunch items and was told it was a breakfast buffet only. When I mentioned that their website said it was a brunch, she said "that's what we call it". I told her how disappointed I was and asked for a refund for myself because I was not interested in having breakfast. My wife and daughter had the breakfast "buffet". It was overcooked and underwhelming. I ended up ordering a 2 piece chicken dinner from the deli counter. The final letdown was when my wife went back to the buffet line to get some more food (around 1 pm) and found they had cleared all of the food already. Their website clearly states that the weekend brunch is from 6 am - 2 pm. : ( read more

Only stopped in for drinks but really enjoyed the place. Friendly and quick. Will come back and try the food.

Menu offers salad, sandwich, and burger options. Added brunch options until 2pm on the weekends. Mediterranean platter was substantial as a vegetarian option. The falafel wasn't dry and the hummus was a flavorful and unique blend. The roasted veggies rounded out the dish. The harvest salad had a variety of veggies, not just a spring mix of lettuce, with a light vinaigrette. The mushroom soup was a standout, so flavorful and creamy. And finally, the Niemann burger was a hit at the table. Tender, moist, and flavorful. The interior is spacious, with a fireplace, different seating options for various group sizes, and a small stage for live music. The employees were friendly. They were knowledgeable and happily answered our questions about the food, and came around a couple times to check in on our experience. Wonderful customer service! read more

Hours are a lie. You just got to hope it is actually open when you come. Don't trust it.

A new grocery story has come to Carmel, and with it, comes their made-to-order food service. And on this, right now they kind of have a monopoly on it. The restaurants within Kroger and Market District have closed, and the other grocers in town never had in-house restaurants. Harvest Market puts the Farmhouse Restaurant to the right of the main entrance, so while it is in its own area, you aren't completely isolated. The lunch/dinner menu is small but to the point. I was feeling basic, so I went with a double smash burger. Honestly a lot of places screw up the smash burger. They either overdo it, or try to stuff too much onto the burger. The double patty burger comes with a side, and I went with the cheesy mac. At $13-ish, I thought this was a solid deal. As for the burger itself, I think this stacks up pretty well to One Trick Pony in Fishers. Its tasty, you can hold it into your hands, and the ingredients were tasty but nothing overpowering the other. The cheesy mac was decent. I wouldn't order a full serving but as a side, it served its purpose. Of course the real question on this restaurant is its good now, let's see how it'll be in 12 months. read more

Farmhouse is the restaurant inside Niemann Harvest Market, a new grocery store in Carmel. Breakfast is served from 6 am-11 am, and lunch/dinner is from 11 am until closing. There's also a bar/lounge that opens at 11 am. We visited for breakfast, because I saw that there's a breakfast burrito on the menu. Breakfast burritos in Indiana are my yeti: I keep searching for a good one, but they keep eluding me. When I ordered the breakfast burrito, the kind woman behind the counter said that it was popular, and also huge. She gestured with her hands to show me how big. Well, FYI: The burritos are not huge, but a decent size. That's alright! Size matters when it comes to burritos, but what matters more is what's inside. Inside the breakfast burrito is sausage crumbles, scrambled egg, hash browns, bell peppers, onions and cheese, all wrapped up in a tortilla. It was tasty, but not quite the breakfast burrito of my dreams. I'm glad I tried it, though. We also got the biscuits and gravy, which come with either one biscuit or two. The gravy wasn't as hot as it could have been, but they, too, were tasty, and went well with an over-medium egg and a side of hash browns. The egg and hashbrowns were ordered a la carte. When you order an egg, it comes with your choice of toast, croissant or biscuit, and I had to try the croissant. The croissants are made in-house, and it came out warm and toasted, with a side of freshly churned butter that they churn at the grocery store. The croissant was probably my favorite breakfast thing that I ate. Also the coffee is fantastic, and you get free refills on coffee. I will definitely be back to Farmhouse Restaurant to try their lunch and bar food snacks. And also to visit the bar, because it looks like they have a good selection of wine. read more

Since we had such a lovely meal last time, went back again about two weeks later (late Sept 2024). This time, hubs ordered the chicken parmasean sandwich, & I had their philly cheesesteak with a cup of seafod gumbo. Hubs was expecting a big piece of breaded chicken with pizza sauce / maranara, but it came out with no sauce and was chicken cut in a bunch of little pieces. So it was not what he expected and he didn't want to eat i/ sent it back, which they graciousy refunded. I thought my sandwich was good, but a tad too much oil. The seafood gumbo is pretty packed with shrimp. Between the soup and sandwich, it was very filling! Still a #yum #ReviewsByRL read more

Took family members to brunch to celebrate 10 years cancer-free. Arrive in the middle of serving time. Spent over $120. Food was cold and congealed. Several items were empty, and were not refilled. Very disappointing experience. Staff, with exception of cashier, were surly and unresponsive to requests for items to be refreshed. Won't be returning. read more

So it appears that the salad bar, chicken wing bar and soups/ sandwiches are all one one side and then on the other side is a more upscale version of the same restaurant which offers fresh local foods. I got the Mediterranean wrap and as a side I got the Chicken Velvet soup. If you've never tried Chicken Velvet be sure to get this! It's amazing!! Friendly service, however, because they are new please be patient and allow a little extra time in your wait. I sat at a table on the side where the Harvest Market is and it was a bit busy and louder. I stepped into the upscale side & it was quiet and classy. I plan to return for a date in the near future! read more

TL:DR Do not get the Sunday buffet. Everything was cold. My wife and I stopped in for breakfast on a Sunday. The very friendly woman behind the counter recommended their Sunday only breakfast buffet, which we took her up on. What a great way for first timers to try a bit of everything? It's $15 a person and includes the omelet bar. It does not include drink or if you want just one egg. Omelet, included, one fried egg, not so much. Dumb. I can't recommend the buffet at all. Everything was cold. The hash browns were hardly cooked and cold. There were two types of scrambled eggs were over cooked, dry, and cold. The bacon not very crispy and cold. The sausage was good, but cold. The only saving grace was the under seasoned sausage gravy is sitting on a hot plate behind the counter. When poured over the dry biscuit, it heated and moistened it up. Since I threw most of the buffet food away, I opted for a made to order omelet. It was meh. Not a lot of flavor. We definitely won't be back for breakfast and probably lunch or dinner. We wanted to come back for their pork tenderloin. Since breakfast, basic breakfast food, is pretty hard to screw up, I doubt the tenderloin will be worth the calories. read more

Located in one of my favorite supermarkets. Heard on the weekends they have a brunch buffet . I love a buffet so was excited to try it. Its basically set up like a cafeteria. You pay for your food up front and then help yourself to the buffet. There is tons of seating. And the atmosphere is overall very open and bright. You forget you are in supermarket. At first I didnt have high expectations for the food. It was almost 11:00am and the place had been open since 6:00 am. They had eggs, two types of bacon, hashbrowns, french toasts, biscuits and gravy, fruit . All of the breakfast essentials. I have to say I was very pleased with the taste of the food. The sausage gravy was my favorite part. It was the perfect consistency. I was only able to eat one plate of food because I got full so quickly. Thats my only complaint about a buffet. Wish I could eat more. Overall, a very satisfying breakfast. Would highly recommend getting a coffee from their coffee shop, I think its a hidden gem. read more

Ordering was very easy from the counter. We were given a number then and chose a table to sit at to wait for them to bring our food. I loved how there were a variety of different styles of chairs to choose from. The biscuits and gravy was surprisingly sweet and very runny. They were not my favorite but still good. The butter they churn themselves in the market and it was delicious! I would come back for the butter alone. read more

I don't have much time for lunch at work. This place is perfect for me. It has a good selection and I can get in pretty quick and eat the grilled cheese and it was delicious. I cheese steak before and it was also good and full of flavor. The people at the counter are always super nice and great you with a small. The atmosphere is nothing special and they have music going on in the background. It's similar to what is at Whole Foods but I think it's better. It's never been too crowded at lunch yet. I think this is a solid 4 star place but giving it 5 because it's rated too low now for what I like. read more

Service was very slow even though the place was neatly empty. The food was average at best. The muffins were nearly uncooked as well as the bacon. Coffee was provided but in a totally different area. Perhaps if they work on a few things it will be okay. We'll give it a try in two months. read more

This restaurant inside the new Neimann Harvest Market is pretty chill. A limited but outstanding breakfast menu yielded excellent well flavored sausage gravy (lots of sausage) with the Biscuits & Gravy - available in half or full order. I prefer a flakier/lighter biscuit. The Vegetable Omelette was the star of the show. Excellent sautéed veggies inside & atop a creamy folded omelette. Order at the counter & delivered to the table works great. Outside seating is great, though high top seating doesn't position you well at the table for dining. Lower tables are much more suited. All seating is comfortable. A good find. read more

Service was excellent. I had an egg sandwich which was very good. Wife had biscuits and gravy. Not bad but it's sweet or there is a spice. Not sure. They were ok. Will be back to try other things read more

Even though the restaurant was mysteriously closed yesterday, they were back open the next day. The food was excellent.

A really nice concept but my food order didn't live up to expectations. I happen to believe a crispy chicken sandwich should be crispy. I believe it was pre-fried and then either microwaved or re- fried. Whatever the process it was soggy. The beverage area is a little confusing. One must get your beverage from the dining area and then go back to the order area . I'll give them another try sometime but I wouldn't recommend it just yet read more
