I'm just going to say it, I had low expectations when we planned on going out here to eat. I'm someone who typically goes to the chain restaurants and grabs quick, easy meals. I don't really like to "eat healthy"," but I'm not against it. When I saw the menu, I didn't really see anything that stood out to me, but I went for the chorizo and ordered a few apps for the table. The apps knocked my socks off. For apps, we got the bread, salad, and spinach dip. The bread was so good and you could taste the quality. And the spreads (maple and garlic) were amazing. Same goes for the salad and the dip, I never tasted delicious kale before. The entree was a generous portion of chorizo, egg, and something else I wasn't sure, but tasted like a healthy rice. All in all, I loved everything about the food and the farm is nice to stroll around and let the kids check out as well (they have sheep greeting you as you pull into the parking lot). I will say, the prices are a little on the higher end of what I anticipated, but it's all justified with the taste and knowing everything is directly from farm to table. Plus, the wait staff was super friendly and the facilities are really clean. 5/5 all around. read more

I love everything about this place when they're open during the season. It's farm to table. Everything is fresh and unique on how they create their menu. I've never had anything I haven't liked here. read more

Why did we not check this place out sooner?! Best farm to fork cafe near a winery! After wine tasting, we got word to check this place out. Even though we just had lunch, we see for ourselves. I am glad we were able to squeeze in a last minute booking. The restaurant is next to it's own shop. Be sure to check that place out as well. The restaurant has a pretty cool decor. Beautiful and inviting. Their menu changes as the season does which is awesome! We were here in December and ordered their Deconstructed Beef Wellington, shaved brussels salad and 2 flights of their own cider. Everything was delicious! The salad had so much flavor and texture, I would love to eat that everyday! The beef wellington had a different twist but nonetheless it is delicious with the balance of flavors. Ciders were refreshing! They had different flavors that you can try plus, you can even bring some home with you. They sell them by the bottles there. The service was excellent! Friendly staff. Overall, food, staff and ambiance is great! Definitely a place to be coming back to and to check them out other seasons as well. We had a great time! read more

I hate to say too many good things about this place because it is one of those gems you just wanna keep a secret, The atmosphere is absolutely breathtaking. The food is all local and delicious. I had the Lo Bak Go, and the flavor as well as the texture was just absolutely delicious. We also had an appetizer of the sourdough bread with delicious butters. We had a flight of cider, and I tended towards the little bit sweeter cider, but they were all delicious except for the very dry us one was. A little too dry for me. Although I'm sure some of you would love it. Other people at our table had a salad and a delicious sandwich. Everything was amazing. For dessert, we had a trio of apricot blueberry sorbei,golden rod ice cream, and lemon curd custard. All of the melted in your mouth. read more

What a wonderful little place! We had no idea what to expect, but we were tired and hungry after a looong day of driving, and didn't want to wait until we were all the way into Boise, so we pulled into here, hoping it was still serving food. At first it was a little confusing: was it a farm? a tasting room? a restaurant? It turns out: it's all 3! But we were worried as it was almost 7, when they closed. Well they couldn't have been nicer, and the food was delicious! The tasting room/restaurant was a pleasant respite from the heat outside (in milder weather the deck would be great.) I worried the food would be bland or underflavored but it was all nicely spiced: my son had a curry, my husband a delicious stew and the other son a flatbread. I had a beet and kale salad on flatbreads - almost like tacos. Super fresh and flavorful. We also split a cider flight, which was refreshing and interesting. Overall a fantastic experience. read more

Peaceful Belly isn't just a place to go eat - it's a whole farm to fork experience! And a memorable one, too. Located in the beautiful Sunnyslope Wine Trail of Idaho, Peaceful Belly is the perfect stop after an afternoon of tastings. While it wasn't busy when my husband and I arrived for our 2:30pm reservation, I would still recommend making reservations which can be done through their website or through OpenTable. We began our visit with flights of their highly-acclaimed Stack Rock Cider (choice of 4 drinks, $8.00/flight). Our server was kind enough to throw in another 2 so we could test the entire menu. Both of us agreed the best one is the Skinny Dippin'. It's the perfect blend of sweet basil and tart lemon - we couldn't leave without bringing home a bottle! If you're not a cider fan, they do offer wine from the surrounding wineries. We were informed the menu changes weekly and follows the seasons. There's lots of vegetarian options, but also some meat dishes. It's obvious that a lot of thought goes into each dish as they're all very unique. I chose the Eggplant Parmesan Flatbread (house made flatbread, breaded eggplant, basil, Parmesan, mozzarella, house made tomato sauce, $17.00) and it was absolutely exquisite! The roasted tomato was deliciously sweet and reminded me of peaches, I think? The tomato sauce was wonderfully seasoned and burst with flavor, better than anything you can buy at the store. My husband ordered Ratatouille (cherry tomatoes, zucchini served on "socca" (garbanzo bean) pancakes with eggplant spread and fresh herbs). He loved the fresh dill on top of the perfectly cooked vegetables, which paired amazingly with the cakes. This dish had great flavor and was cooked to perfection as well. We couldn't leave without trying the Peach Pie, which is literally a mini pie filled with sweet peaches in the most delicious crust I'd ever eaten topped with Madagascar Bourbon vanilla (IYKYK) whipped cream ($12.00). It was SO good. To top off our wonderful time, we bought a vase and for $12.00 we were able to create a beautiful bouquets. I had a blast choosing from so many flowers! I'm really looking forward to my next visit to Peaceful Belly. This is an absolute GEM. It's worth the drive, it's worth all your time. Don't sleep on it! read more

Wowah... if you were to create the most peaceful, happy, outgoing, drooly, sweet, delectable dream you have ever had, in real life, this place would be it. Vibrant, alive, simple. Peaceful Belly is a must stop even if it isn't on your way to somewhere. Their purpose is well thought out and the land they work to live off of. Bees buzzing around happily and full, animals probably burrowing under the shade of a beautiful sunflower, and humans graciously eating farm to table master pieces. Do I sound corny, maybe, but until you visit this living dream, you can't possibly understand. Peaceful Belly partners with local, everything you can think of, to bring you fresh food, if they can't harvest it from their land. We had the most delectable bread and flavored butter, shishito peppers, mozzarella/basil/tomato, and oozy, goozy homemade ice cream. And of course we had a nice sampling of their awesome cider, take some to go too! Friends in town? In-laws? A date (ooooh la la)? Prepare to impress if you take them here! read more

Opened again for 2022 in February after a well deserved few weeks off for winter holiday. Our meal here opening week was marvelous for warm welcome, super service and fantastic food flavors. It remains in our list of top 5 favorite dining experiences in the Treasure Valley. It is a 45'ish minute drive from our front door to theirs and worth the trip for darned tootin'! Support local farmers using respect for ingredients and customers. And since Peaceful Belly Cafe has been 'discovered' you may want to make reservations (they use Open Table). As in prior years the menu can change from week to week depending on what is fresh and available. The short menu is not always posted in advance of each week but go with confidence that one will always find something delicious on it to choose. I posted a photo of their opening week menu as example but it will evolve over time. What's changed in 2022? They are currently open Thursday through Sunday for lunch and dinner but check their website for hours as they are subject to change in this true family run business. There is a new chef this year and if our first meal on the second day of opening was a measure, he is creating excellent food. (We chose chicken pot pie ($17), an Asian turnip dish ($16) - both to share - and Jimmy Nardello pepper ice cream ($6) along with cider sampler with the meal and a pot of great local roaster Flying M French press coffee with the dessert. Orders used to be placed at counter last year, but this year they are taking orders at table. Owner / husband Clay Erskine is also the cider master for the farm's Stack Rock cidery and he has added four new ciders to the list this year and they are all delightful! (The tasting flight is a great way to find your favorites.) Cider is available in bottles to take home. (We left with six in a tote this time.) This is a cidery facility and so while the cider list has expanded they have reduced wine options to two, one red and one white both from local vintners. There are also soft beverages, including in house made herbal soda, and they have added a new tea line up too. In addition to inside seating in the delightful space and outside patio seating when weather permits there is now a separate room for reservation to use for groups and it is a delight of color and whimsey which I couldn't fairly capture for image for photo. Owner Josie Erskine has such a flair for designing welcoming and spirit lifting spaces. I love the new mural on the back wall of the main space too. read more

We stopped here after a morning visiting vintage shoppes. It's a pretty 'peaceful' place and it has a great view. I found that I am not a big cider fan and should probably just have had wine. My husband though, really liked the ciders. For eats we each got the pot pie. I really like that the food here is made with healthy ingredients. The pot pie was good but bland to my taste, so asked for salt and pepper to perk up the flavors. We stopped at the little retail shop after and picked up vegetables and a killer huckleberry jam. I wish we had bought more of that as we are burning through our jar pretty fast! read more

Wow! Where do I start? This place is 5/5 stars all around. Their restaurant is out of control tasty. The menu changes daily depending on what's available for harvest from the farm. Our group tried the bread and butter, the meatballs, the deconstructed ratatouille and the homemade peaches and cream ice cream. Another standout was their summer cider cocktail. The one I (greatly!) enjoyed had cider, cantaloupe, and jalapeño. Seriously divine! After we ate, we went out to their flower fields to pick our own bouquet. For $12 we got a Mason jar filled with water and a pair of scissors. Finally, the farm store was great! They had fresh veggies, goodies from local artists, and small pints of their homemade ice cream. If you're visiting Boise, do NOT miss out on this beautiful experience! read more

We went to the Peaceful Belly Farm restaurant for our youngest daughter's 30th birthday dinner. She wanted to go someplace special, someplace that she'd never frequent it before and she wanted to go to a place that she could build new memories. And she also wanted to be very conscious to my diet restrictions. I have food allergies. So I got on yelp and started looking at restaurants and came across this particular one. I am always drawn to restaurants that are farm to table and this one is definitely that. Their menu changes every single day, depending on what they harvest and what the neighboring farms are harvesting. Their menu is not very big, but that is another thing that I am quite drawn to it. It shows that all of their food's going to be very fresh rather than some thing that they picked up at Costco and threw in their fryer. I was also drawn to the location of it being on a farm. I knew that we would get great pictures. Sometimes food is something that you eat more with your eyes and then realize that your stomach ends up being just as happy. When we arrived for our reservation, we were greeted by a very nice hostess, who seated us at a great table. The restaurant was quite busy, but that did not change our service at all. We chose the apricot appetizer and the broccoli hummus. My husband got the Power Bowl while my daughter got the bird in a nest, and I got the lamb which was wonderful. We saved room for dessert, but dessert was at home since it was the our daughters birthday dinner. I would definitely go back to this place in a heartbeat. But I would do it in a different season to see how their menu changes drastically. read more

This place was an absolute gem. The community gardens are so beautiful to walk through. The farm to table food was delicious. Our server was a delight and so knowledgeable about the gardens, ciders, and events. The ciders were delicious. Only complaint is that I don't live in this state and won't be coming back any time soon. Although we did buy some ciders to go. read more

This was our first visit to the "farm" all I can say is wow!! A truly "hidden" culinary gem featuring fresh local ingredients from the surrounding countryside. The menu changes frequently based on what's available. I had the meatloaf smothered in a pepper gravy. It was delicious!! They offer their own cider as well; just do a flight to find your favorite. Don't forget the ice cream; you can do a flight of that too rotating flavors. Lastly you need to make a reservation don't expect to walk in and sit down. So do yourself a favor head out to the Sunnyslope enjoy some delicious food, cider, and ice-cream!! read more

Peaceful Belly was not peaceful on our bellies. The ciders were great, delicious and a big variety. We tried the flight and loved all the ciders we got. We even got just a plain apple cider and was very very good. We ordered the bread and butter app and was very tasty too with three types of butters to try. The gals that worked there were very nice and very busy. So our main course, my husband got the grilled cheese and tomato soup which he said was very tasty. I ordered some kind of trout dish and it was not at all what I was expecting (I'll post a picture when able). It was... different... had flavor but not something I wouldn't order again. Finally, my husband got their dulce ice cream and was very creamy and delicious. The area is beautiful and you can look around the area and see the greenhouses. The inside decor was very different but I loved their cider racks. On to afterwards... almost immediately my stomach was feeling weird and I didn't think I would make it home in time. I was down for the count the rest of the day which sucks because we were planning to bike the greenbelt later. The next morning my husband had it just as bad if not worse and he hasn't eaten anything since we came here. I am not saying this place is bad by any means. It just might not be for some people. We would love to come back for the cider, the bread and butter and the views. read more

This is literally a farm to table restaurant! The garden is right outside the window. The menu changes depending on what is growing or not. Oh my goodness, grilled cheese sandwiches with rich butternut squash soup on a wintery day was divine! Their hard ciders are the best I have tasted, and a flight is the way to go. Unfortunathey do contain sulfites, and I am sensitive to them. Instead, I chose a warm spiced cider, which was heavenly. This place is worth a trip with everything being from scratch and kid friendly. Don't skip the cute little farm store so you can take their homemade ice cream home read more

We have been in Idaho for 20 months and we are coming out of our Covid haze and looking for new and interesting places. The Farm is so beautiful in its wild,pretty way with all of the plants and flowers. They win major kudos for not allowing dogs. I took my elderly parents to a lavender farm in Eagle and we were tripping over dogs. The dining room is cheerful, light and airy. Visually,an instant pick me up. The food was wholesome,fresh and delicious. The cider was also excellent and we went home with a few extra bottles. We were so impressed that we have signed up for a share of the crop. Our vegetables will be showing up from October. I cannot wait to take visitors to dine at this farm. You have to have their bread with the trio of butters. Yum read more

This place is terrible. The service is abysmal. The employees are rude. They act like they are doing you a favor by serving you. I'm guessing the work environment created by the owners (super rude and unfriendly themselves!) is toxic because the aura of the wait staff wreaks of misery. Probably the reason for the high turnover. The two servers that were actually good no longer work there. I would give it zero stars if I could. I've been there a few times because the ambiance they are trying to create seemed nice, and their menu has a lot of vegetarian options (which my wife likes) but will not go back again. I always leave hungry anyway. read more

WOW! Wow, wow, wow. Where ever you live in the treasure valley, I don't care, the drive is 10000% worth it. I am shocked by the detail of flavor in every dish and how fresh everything was. The sourdough loaf that came out was warm and we had basil butter and fresh marinara. I ordered the caprese salad with heirloom tomatoes. It was the best caprese salad I have ever had. My husband had the chicken pot pie and it had pumpkin in it which I thought was the perfect added touch, it was decadent. We ordered the apple pie and a scoop of peach blueberry ice cream. Mt husband loves ice cream and he said "this is the best ice cream I've ever had!"

If, like me, you're an adventurous eater who likes local, fresh food and creatively paired flavors you will LOVE Peaceful Belly Farms. I arrived with a a friend for lunch with a friend on a Friday afternoon around 1, we were promptly seated and the waitress explained that all of what they sell is locally sourced, either from their farm or somewhere close by. Can I just say, WOW! The hot cider was spicy and sweet. The eggplant hummus was so flavorful and beautifully presented. My friend got the cheesey potato pot pie and loved it- she said it was very much a comfort food. I branched out and tried the duck confit tamales with mole. I don't love spice that makes me cry, but the mole was perfectly deliciously spicy without being painful. My friend and I both commented we had no idea what all the flavors we were tasting were- but they were DELICIOUS. Ok, you get it! Their menu changes constantly and seasonally, I noticed a lot of pickled things and jams as we head into winter. You've got to check this place out! Just check their website for current hours. read more

Amazing! The drive to Peaceful Belly Farms was great. It is near Sunny Slope Wine Trail. The food is all local sourced, the menu changes frequently to feature what is in season. We felt welcomed from the plant house with herbs and tomatoes for sale, to the gorgeous blue double doors of the restaurant and the surrounding joyful art. So much care and thought here. The food is fresh and delicious. Can't wait to go back. read more

Not my style of restaurant but really a fun place. Just a little, I don't know, che che (The restaurant that is.) for me. The price was higher in price than I like. The ingredients locally sourced. While I could taste the freshness. Non of the farm flavors came through which makes me think it's been processed like store foods. Nice selection of Hard Ciders. This time of year the veggies are mostly roots. I had the Shepherds pie. Really good even if the flavors where a bit subtle for me but it filled me for a lunch. My Dad had the Chorizo and Grits which was really good and spiced with a wee bit kick. The egg was overdone but overall a good meal with a great view. read more

This might be one of my favorite places when I visit nearby in Homedale...truly farm to table! I came here in fall, and we sat on that patio in the back facing the garden. The flowers were still in bloom. Beautiful surroundings and great service...plus wonderful food...exactly what you look for when you go out to eat. We ordered a couple of the cider flights, all were great, definitely favored some over others. We ordered the bread and butter, which was very fresh and a great way to start. I had the special grilled cheese they had at the time and their tomato soup. I stopped in their farm store and picked up some eggplant that looked fantastic, and we made eggplant parm at home. Nothing from here is bad, its all fresh and fantastic! read more

What a fun and cool place! You will want to make reservations, we made reservations for right when they opened & we were the first there for the day. It was glorious & how we plan to visit them in the future. I enjoyed the cider I had, we had the bread starter with the different butter which was really good, and then both ordered main courses that we shared, and wrapped up with ice cream dessert. We could have gone with one main course to share and been satisfied (depending on how hungry you are). I would talk about what we had, but the menu changes consistently depending on the availability of ingredients. We plan to go here again & this will be a place we bring out of town guests for a fun and different dining experience before hitting the Sunnyslope Wine Trail. read more
