What a perfect Friday Night dinner with the family! We started off with bread in a flower pot which was super cute with some flavored butter that was also so tasty! Appetizer we did the Quinoa Fritters- they were awesome and ate it with arugula and it was such a good combo. My 3 year old son enjoy it and asked for seconds. My husband ordered the special which was steak and potatoes and I ordered the Seared Salmon and that was really good! Moist and flaky ! The restaurant decor was beautiful and the food presentation was on point. Next time we would like to walk around more to see the beautiful plants and flowers. The only issue we had was that the food took long. The appetizer took about 45 mins and then like 30 mins after that we got dinner. Our reservation was at 630 we got there at 620. And then we waited a long time to get our appetizer. Our waitress was really nice and apologized for the wait it's not her fault but we were really excited to try this restaurant and was just a little disappointed about the wait time. It wasn't just us either we noticed customers that arrived a little after us still didn't get their meal when we were leaving. read more

My son had his wedding there and roughly 70 guest. I was actually blown away at how beautiful the place was. First, the hors d'oeuvres were nothing short of tasty. So much variety and no hot dogs wrapped in dough. All the wedding guests kept talking about how good the hors d'oeuvres were and there was a lot of them! So much variety and upscale. It was suppose to rain that day but they decorated the indoor space beautifully. So happy that it only rained during dinner so it worked out that they opened the bar outside so there are plenty of seating outside. The flowers were more beautiful than I have ever seen. When dinner came I didn't hear anything bad about each meal. They had steak, salmon and ravioli but it didn't look like what I've seen at other venues. They had steak chef and the kitchen staff made each meal look as good as it tasted. I was so pleased that everyone was enjoying the food. Finally, the dessert trays started coming. I counted 9 different desserts. My daughter in law just bought a cake from a bakery so they could take the photos of the cake cutting. Everything the Terrain did for them was over the top. The servers were amazing. The bridal suite was cute.... First time in my life everything was spot on. I would definitely recommend going to the restaurant to check out the food. It will sell you! Thank you Terrain for an A+ wedding. I wish you continued success... read more

This review is just for the store of Terrain and garden center, and not the cafe (that had a separate listing, which I've already done a review on). If you have never been to a Terrain location, when you first walk in, it's magical ! The magic doesn't lessen the subsequent times you visit but you at least are aware of what you're about to see. Terrain does the most gorgeous displays and half the fun of shopping is to look at everything. If you like gardening or interior design or just pretty displays, you must check it out. The people working here are always nice but they don't bother you which is nice. Now , can I afford relatively anything at Terrain? No. It's extremely expensive and maybe that's why the staff does leave me alone. Every once in awhile you can find a few things to purchase that are "affordable". This is coming from the view point of a female in the lower middle class income bracket, so keep that in mind. I would love to buy everything in Terrain- I love their kitchen ware especially, but unfortunately I cannot. So until the day I can I will happily look at their beautifully curated displays, the luxurious bath products, beautiful glass ware, and metal decor and dream about owning all the pretty things. I also love walking through their garden center, the displays there are equally as beautiful and the staff seemed very knowledgeable. For now, I will be an admirer and purchaser of the occasional trinket or gift! read more

So knowing the former Market at DelVal, I had high hopes for this revamped space. The shop is pretty with lots of unique items, however it is extremely expensive. I realize glass ornaments are pricey, but $98 for a single ornament is too much for me. $480 for a table cloth, while it is admittedly a beautiful and ornate show piece, was unfortunately also not in my budget. As for the restaurant, it was very busy and a bit disorganized at first with slow service, but the food and drinks were quite good. The flowerpot bread with sun-dried tomato and basil butter was delicious, the hummus was yummy and our entrees were enjoyed by all. In summary, I'd be willing to try the restaurant again and browse in the shop, but I miss the old charming market. read more

Store review only. I am hype about this new Terrain. I've been to the Glen Mills and Devon locations but the DelVal location is so close to home. Twenty minutes to be exact. The nursery/store has a good variety of indoor/outdoor plants for the plant lady/man connoisseur. A gorgeous array of planters and pots. A bunch of unique home good items. Customer service is top notch. Granted, today is the grand opening but still, all the workers were helpful and friendly! Picked up a new orchid, even though I don't need anymore plants. Can't help but to buy something when I come to Terrain. I'll be back very soon to hit up the Garden Cafe. read more

I'm giving this 4 stars because the service was very attentive and the space is beautiful. It's probably more like 3 stars though, because the food is relatively unspectacular, and as it's a restaurant, they're supposed to be good at food. The flower pot bread is a cute concept and the butter was delicious. The bread was a bit dry from being overcooked though. Not inedible but certainly could be better. I ordered the steak frites. The steak came out very overcooked, and the server even noticed it too. She replaced it, so then it was just overcooked instead of very overcooked. I couldn't bring myself to complain again so I just ate it. It was okay - a bit tough and chewy. The fries were very obviously from a bag which we were a little shocked about. My companion had the quinoa bowl and it was also just okay to me. The broccoli was very overcooked. See the trend? I have no complaints about the service. Everyone except the hostesses was friendly and helpful. I just don't think we'll be rushing back here... shame since the space really is lovely. read more

Everything is amazing about this new innovative campus restaurant. Situated on the Del Val agricultural College grounds. Everything is farm to table and this lovely café restaurant is attached to a beautiful upscale garden nursery. Just wow, all the way down to their bread, baked in clay flower pots with specialty iced teas, daily, and herbal flavored butters for that bread- A seasonal menu. That is sure to please year-round.sorry I didn't take more photos. LOVED The chamomile and lavender tea read more

This is a must if you like gardens and food. The store is like walking through a magical garden and the restaurant will leave you wanting more. We sat at the bar since we didn't have reservations. We were greeted promptly by a nice male bartender. He was attentive. We all ordered something different and we were all happy! The omelette was great. The potatoes seemed a little overdone. The Caesar Salad was delicious and beautiful with the flowers on it. The real star of the show was the French toast. It was to die for. The latte was also amazing. I can't wait to go back! read more

Flower pot complimentary bread and butter was so good and drinks were refreshing and had enough alcohol. Cheese plate was delish and short rib and eggs were perfect. Definitely check out their store/nursery read more

Food - absolutely DELICIOUS!! 5 stars plus! Ambiance - 0. The cacophony in the cafe was almost unbearable. You could not hear yourself think. You must do something to dampen the noise!!! read more

My wife and I stopped by for lunch the second day after Terrain opened at this location in Doylestown. We hadn't realized we needed reservations and the cafe was completely packed. We found two seats at the bar and had the Breakfast Special and it was absolutely wonderful. Our waiter/bartender, Nick, was so friendly and attentive, and we had a chance to speak with Ella, the assistant manager who was also very warm and accommodating. The menu is very reasonable and the location is terrific with plenty of parking, and the store and outside garden area is well stocked. The food is mostly farm to table. We loved the experience and we will be going back for sure. read more

The restaurant is delicious and the people working there are A+. That's a must go. The store was not. We shopped there before and bought $500 in potted plants. Was told bring them back if anything happens and we'll waive the service fee. Also at the time was going to use a 20% coupon, which only worked on a couple of items so was told bring it back another time and use it when we can use it on more items. Went back tonight, 2 mos after the last purchase with a died plant. Talked to the gentleman that helped us and said go get new plants they would waive the service fee but of course charge for the plants. Then girl planting said they would charge a $6 svc fee to plant, ok whatever. The. We get to the register and they ring the plant up and charge for the plants and 2 different service fees. I asked about it and she said $6 svc fee I asked what the first fee was and she said that is a svc fee too. I asked what for? She said don't know that's what it costs. 2 Svc fees Plus the 2 plants - costing me $47. This Upset me because I was told no svc fee to start. I also tried to use the 20% this time on some skin products and they said they no longer accept the coupon and would not honor it. Just feel a little ripped off. Not a huge amount of money just good to know how they operate. * side note: the girl who planted our plants was very helpful. read more

Called four times around 11:30 AM on 11/06/2024 to inquire about availability of luncheon reservations for the day. No one answered the phone. Encountered nothing but voicemail chains. That is ridiculous. read more

I think this terrain location has done a beautiful job on the indoor greenhouse and outdoor living / plants space . They are very innovative with ideas for working with plants both indoors and outdoors and have seemingly the highest quality of plants . Yes it is expensive but I do think that the quality they are offering are unmatched locally in a retail environment. The staff is very friendly and helpful . I'm mostly disappointed in the "gift section " as I remember when you could get beautiful dinnerware,glassware and serve wear at Terrian but now the assortment is very limited and for me not that interesting that I haven't seen elsewhere . This store has inspired many knock off garden stores but proves why it still is the best in show read more

Great seasonal food and drinks!! The staff was friendly and welcoming. Our server know the menu well and was able to answer our questions.

Two words: Not Good. We just finished brunch, having stopped in to satisfy our curiosity at the new place in town. We arrived at opening to find the dining room dirty, with food under tables, on seats, and crumbs on tables. My glass and plate were not clean either and I requested a replacement. I over heard a server at the next door table explain that the espresso machine was not operational, so no espresso drinks were available. About 15 minutes later he came back and said that they were working on coffee, but it would be a bit longer. As we were there at opening, you'd expect to be able to at least enjoy a coffee while waiting for your meal, but that hadn't come out when we left 45 minutes later. On to the food. It wasn't good. I ordered avocado toast and home fries while my husband ordered the Terrain breakfast. My breakfast came out with fries, though I asked several times for their version of home fries. Of the couple bites I tried, the toast was fairly bland. The avocado is cut in chunks and was heavily oxidized, which put me right off, so I didn't eat it. My husband described his breakfast as basic . We asked for jam for bread and received a cup with what appeared to be blended strawberries that tasted like they were overripe when processed. Another miss. I won't likely go back any time soon, since it was a completely underwhelming experience. read more

We had hoped a nice, light, afternoon meal and garden browsing would be the perfect end to a long birthday celebration weekend. Terrain could not have been further from that. It was a little before 3pm, and the restaurant was, maybe, half full with plenty of seating at tables and the bar. 30 minutes after being seated, we were still nursing our glasses of room temperature water, waiting to place an order. Wait staff were constantly moving past us, yet we were entirely ignored. So, we decided to leave without consuming anything except the room temperature water. However, we do sincerely hope that our wait staff, Collin, absolutely nails the interview he was talking about with another table for 15-20 minutes of the 30 minutes we waited for basic service. read more

Each time I have walked onto the Terrain DelVal campus, or indeed, entered the vast "shopping area," I have been in happy awe of the brightness, the arrangements, the high quality, the persuasive attractiveness everywhere I looked. I immersed myself in this "aaaaahhhhhh!" experience. And added to this is the pleasantness of the friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable staff. I would mention Megan and Stephanie as my most recent contacts. Looking forward to making a return visit! read more

Great opening! Husband loved his Manhattan & short rib meal. Flower pot bread & strawberry butter a big hit. Beautiful decor & ambience. Casual classy. Server Ina exceptional. Executive Director Adam attentive & inquiring. Will definitely return for dinner. read more

I wanted to love it here. I've been to Terrain in Glen Mills and thoroughly enjoyed it. Here, not so much. I made a reservation once I heard they were opening. The space is beautiful, albeit noisy. My 3 friends and I each got a different cocktail and they were enjoyable. Our waiter was very indifferent about us being there. He rarely checked on us and seemed checked out. 3 of us got the mushroom goat cheese frittata. It was very dry. It was supposed to come with potato hash but instead came with large pieces of potatoes that were baked? Definitely not a hash. Our other friend got the crab quiche which she also said was dry. For a cocktail, frittata and a coffee it was about $40 per person with tip (20% even though the service was mediocre). I won't be rushing back. read more
