Amazing food here! Healthy, value! And the drinks are amazing. Also the team at Durham is very friendly, always smiling and welcoming, we always take out around 8-10pm! Ambiance is casual and I wish they were open even later but still, we love Farmside! read more

I stopped into Farmside Kitchen Durham RTP while staying nearby for business. I read the reviews and wanted a salad so I walked over. The restaurant was fresh, clean, and they had menus overhead. I was welcomed quickly and I ordered a pitchfork salad. It was assembled quickly. You'll be asked about dressing, heavy, medium or light. I chose medium. The salad gets all mixed and covered with dressing and soon dispensed into a bowl depending on dine in or take out. I chose the latter. I enjoyed my salad. Fresh vegetables and ingredients. The dressing wasn't overwhelming. The price was good. Quick service and tasty salad, I'll be back again if I'm in the area. read more

My first time eating food from here. I did not interface with the staff so I can't comment on that aspect. The bowl was great! A good balance of flavors. I added onions to it which enhanced the flavors. I would absolutely buy from them again. read more

Food was average. With all the choices in the area, I would not choose this restaurant but would go if someone else asked me to.

They serve decent bowls. Flavorful and multiple options for toppings. We do love Farmside - but prefer the Cary location. They typically don't give us very good portions here. And both times we've been here the workers have not been very nice - rude when asking questions/clarification. They space was clean and there was not wait at dinner time. They have a patio with outdoor seating. Indoor seating is large as well. High chairs available for use. They have several fun drink options read more

We arrived just before the lunch rush - and wow this place got very busy on a Friday! I had The Rancher with spicy jalapeño dressing. Loved it! They have a lot of different refreshing drink options. I tried the pineapple mint - yum! read more

Can't go wrong here. The salads are amazing and the portion sizes are huge. The place is very clean and they have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. You always feel good after eating here. The only downside is the staff can be pretty rude and they rush you nonstop, but honestly the food is so good it's hard to complain too much. read more

In the area for a work trip. Beat the lunch rush by a little bit so we had quick service, but the line was quite long (but moving fast) shortly after. The descriptor "warm salad" may not sound the best, but that's kind of what it is and it is delicious. Love that you can have a great tasting, yet healthy lunch. Staff was very patient and moved quickly once you were ready. They have their service figured out well to feed all the corporate folks that swing in for lunch. Will add to my rotation when in the area. read more

Me and my family stopped by Farmside looking for a good, maybe healthier alternative to the Chipotle a few shops away. The place itself was really clean, but the service was rough. We stood there for about 10 minutes before the cashier finally looked up from scrolling on his phone, and he seemed annoyed that we were even there. After we left and ate, all of our stomachs started twisting and turning, and we ended up feeling pretty sick for a few days. Overall, it was just a really bad experience. read more

Just what you want in a fast casual salad spot. I chose the Caesar bowl, and finished it all. Great soft bread is optional, I chose heavy dressing. Selection of tea, sodas, and juice drinks. I'd come back if ever in the area! read more

Farmside Kitchen in Durham is an assembly-line or fast-casual dining experience similar to many popular chains such as Chipotle. What I like about this place is that it boasts a diverse set of proteins and carbs that even vegans or vegetarians would be proud of. I was craving protein, so I went with the build-your-own bowl selections of the chili lime tofu, quinoa, lentils, baby arugula, and shredded kale topped with both spicy pumpkin seeds and jalapeño dressing, and some roasted peppers in my bowl. For me, it doesn't sound very enticing, but it was a plant-based protein powerhouse that I needed to continue my vacation out in North Carolina. This is now one of my favorite places to dine in Durham. It was so good that I ate there twice (upon arrival and departure days via RDU) I'm really looking forward to my return in three weeks. If you're ever in the Raleigh or Durham area, and you want an affordable lunch or dinner with plethora of delicious options, check out Farmside Kitchen. They open around 11 o'clock, so make sure you're there sharp because it gets really busy, and all the patio space will fill up very fast. read more

With having such great reviews, I've been wanting to try Farmside Kitchen for a while now and finally did. This place reminds me a lot of similar restaurants like Sweetgreen and Cava. I ordered the Farmside bowl and unfortunately will say that I was a little disappointed in my meal. While the bowl was definitely healthy, it didn't have a whole lot of flavor and the dressings didn't add much to it. The meal kind of left a dry taste in my mouth. I really wanted to like this place more, and maybe I just didn't order the right thing. I'd be open to giving it another try, but this first visit didn't quite live up to the hype. read more

I absolutely am in LOVE with this restaurant. I try my very best to lunch here every single time I am in town for business. The food is absolutely fresh, service, impeccable, pricing fair, I also am the type of person who ordered the same dish every single time. I "The Rancher" bowl! read more

Quick service, fresh food options. Lunchtime can be a nightmare due to the long lines. But it moves pretty quickly.

I had a very nice and fresh build my own salad. I got the Black beans, lentils, and avocado for my protein, kale and arugula for my base, double tomatoes, cucumbers, beets, cabbage, and the lemon basil dressing. Very tasty. read more

Love Farmside Kitchen!! Great place to get your fresh salad bowls. There truly something for everyone. My favorite is the rancher which comes with kale, brown rice, beans, cheese, avocado, crushed tortillas, and cilantro dressing. It comes with chicken as the protein but I always get the cilantro lime tofu. The salad is topped with a fresh lime and a slice of bread. It's so delicious and flavorful!! They have another dressing that is spicy but the cilantro dressing works for me as I'm not spice tolerant. The service is always quick and efficient. There's plenty of indoor and outside seating to accommodate all groups. And parking is easy and accessible. Love it!! read more

With so many great Yelp reviews, we were expecting a better meal when choosing Farmside Kitchen to satiate our hunger after traveling into RDU and starting our short drive back to the Triad. We wanted something fresh and tasty with plenty of greenery to help offset some of the delicious things we ate in Nashville, that admittedly, might have been not as healthy. This place is a lot like a CAVA or Chopt, except, the amount of available toppings is not as robust, and in our experience... simply not as flavorful. We each built our own bowl, and were surprised at the lack of meat choices. You have an option for chicken breast or... chicken thighs. Everything else was tofu or a warm vegetable. The chicken also looked very plain, and upon tasting it, it was very dry, and definitely lacked in the flavor department. It left that chalky chicken taste in my mouth which takes lots of liquid to dispel. Moving onto toppings, we were not confronted with lots of interesting flavors like you might see at some of those places I named earlier. Instead it was standard salad bar fare with a few exceptions. The dressings were interesting, my cilantro based one was tasty, but the Greek vinaigrette my wife chose didn't have much in the way of flavor. She went back up for a side cup of balsamic, which was much better. This was around 8pm that we came in, and mind you, they are open until 10pm as noted on the door. The employees were much more focused on their closing duties than anything food related. One of them kept mopping the floor the entire time even though more customers were coming in and having to track through it. In the end, it just wasn't a satisfying meal, but was enough to get us home. Maybe this place is simply more on it's game during lunch or earlier dinner hours, but, I don't see myself stopping in again. read more

I had been hearing good things about Farmside for a while & finally got the opportunity to check it out. We came in the evening during the week & there were a decent of amount of people dining in & getting take out. It was not packed though. There is plenty of parking near the entrance. The restaurant is spacious & you can dine inside or outside. There are healthy fruit juice combinations & regular fountain drink options available. After entering you place your order at the counter & your meal is made using the assembly line of ingredients. You can create your own bowl or select a pre-selected set of ingredients. The ingredients were fresh. I really enjoyed my bowl & plan on returning. read more

We love the food here. The basil dressing is amazing! My deduction of a star is that the tables are never clean. We come in at 11 when they open and the tables are always dirty. Also, need to use tongs to get greens, not hands. read more

My mom is a vegan, so I wanted to find a place where she would have options for lunch. We stopped here for a quick bite on our way to Raleigh. Farmside Kitchen reminded me of a smaller version of Cava/Chopt. I kept it simple and ordered one of their signature farmbowls (salad), but you can create your own. You order at the counter and they make the farmbowl in front of you. The assembly line was quick and efficient. They have lots of tables available and the place is really bright with the light coming from all the windows. I got the Farmhouse Caesar. It was a great twist on a classic Caesar with the added ingredients of quinoa and tomatoes. My favorite part was the Parmesan crisps. This was a nice, light lunch. I definitely recommend if you're craving a salad. read more

Farmside kitchen is one of my favorite salad places in all of the triangle. We live nowhere near it but will go out of our way to pick it up. "The farmside" and "the GOAT" are my go tos as well as one of their delicious juices. My kids love their Mac and cheese. Their serving sizes are generous and their pricing is good. Highly recommend!! read more

My salad was fresh and the avocado toast had great flavor, though expensive for 1 piece.

Truly one of my new favorite places. I was traveling for work and stopped by this place before hitting the airport. There was no line, the service was friendly, and there was plenty of seating. The food was DELICIOUS. Great portions, customizable, and an easy way to get veggies. Highly recommend the rancher. read more

This is a build a bowl place, and it was efficiently run and large and clean inside. Getting a takeout order yielded a bowl that was ready in timely fashion. The ingredient choices were many, and I wasn't sad that I got miso root vegetables in addition to tofu. When you mix cooked ingredients with lettuce things get a little soggy and the bowl was perhaps a bit less than the sum of its parts. The dressing came in double and I didn't think using one full sachet was really necessary as it was salty and there was plenty of flavor in the bowl already. For me, this place was a pretty good examplar of the merits of fast casual dining: I went there when I needed something quick and easy. read more

Grabbed takeout from here recently and really enjoyed it! I got the Farm Caesar bowl and I was impressed by the amount of food. The Caesar dressing was tasty and I liked the inclusion of quinoa.
