We have been there several times The service is improving slowly, but improving Nice atmosphere, food is good.We will keep coming back read more

Food was not good We had 3 Pork tenderloin dishes and all 3 the pork was raw Shrimp was mushy and not cooked enough There was 6 of us and 3 meals came out and the other 3 were delivered 5 minutes later Drinks took forever to get Very disappointed won't be back read more

Had brunch here the other weekend, fantastic food and beautiful ambiance. Their bread in a flour pot was warm and yummy, nice touch. Our server, Angel, was fantastic and we never had to look for him when we needed him as he seemed to just appear at the correct times. Very nice experience, highly recommend read more

Had the best birthday dinner with my best friend tonight. We couldn't have picked a better place to celebrate our birthdays. It's absolutely beautiful inside. The decor and charm is perfect. I loved the inside so much. It was beautiful and welcoming and comfortable. The food was delicious. We had the Brussel sprouts for starters. So good! She had the halibut and I had the salmon and it was delicious. We cleaned our plates. The garden spritzer was also delightful and very welcomed. I love seeing mocktails on the menu- thank you for having a nice variety! I had the apple caramel cheesecake for dessert which I absolutely loved. Our waiter was Jordan and he was great! He made the whole experience even more enjoyable - he's got a great attitude and his personality was just what we needed for a quiet, lighthearted, easy going night for our birthdays. Actually- the entire staff was wonderful and kind and engaging. It was a great experience!! I see on other reviews, patrons complained about the slow service. I have to touch on that - the service was slow, but not out of being ignored by wait staff. Dining out is an experience. I hate to be rushed. Our food orders were taken promptly And our food came out as it should. One of my biggest peeves about going out to eat is having servers bring me the next course while I'm still working on my current course. Let me eat. Let me enjoy it. Let me digest it. Let me enjoy the experience without being rushed. So happy we chose this place and we'll definitely be back. read more

We ate at Terrain cafe last night with friends. I had the Caesar salad with grilled chicken. It was standard. Nothing special. I ordered it because everything else had beets or goats cheese and I'm not a fan. My husband had grilled salmon with a beet sauce and said it was fine. Nothing to write home about. Decor is cute. A little too bright and a little too loud. Kids running around everywhere - I think from the reviews here we were expecting something more atmospheric, less reminiscent of Cracker Barrel. The bread in the terra cotta flower put was cute. Cinnamon sugar butter was fine. I'm not one for over the top service but half expected the server to come back once or even twice to check on us - nope. Half-heartedly, she took our order and someone else dropped it off. There was virtually no salad dressing on the salads which my friend quickly noted and immediately requested extra be brought to the table. It took its time getting there, and in the meantime we gnawed on the overcooked chicken. I think, actually, the biggest break we had was that our server didn't check back on us...because if she had we each might have ordered a second glass of wine in an attempt to wash down the dry chicken and salad. Glad we didn't - we noticed on the bill at the end that a glass of white wine was $19. I've paid that much for a glass of wine before - I mean, I live in London for crying out loud! But the overall impression I was left with was this place is trying to be something it's not with its overpriced wine and over frou frou beets and goats cheese laden entrees and its underdressed salads and it's ho him wait staff. I mean I didn't hate it - please enjoy you people whose cup of tea it is - but I most adamantly will never return. It looked like a super cute place for a wedding, though - and there was a wedding going on in the events space last night. read more

Meh. Nicely decorated and staff is very nice. But the food was just ok. I ordered a burger and it looked and tasted like a frozen burger from Costco - except it was $20. Wife got a Ceasar Salad with chicken. Again pretty bland with store bought dressing. If you want to lunch with the Doylestown ladies then this is your place to be seen. Otherwise there are better spots. read more

The cafe at Terrain has a beautiful ambience, and the Golden Oat Latte was delicious, but that's about it. The service is very slow and on a 100 degree day I had to ask for water, as did two other nearby tables, on the OUTSIDE patio after being seated for 15 minutes with no server coming to my table. The food is tasteless and inconsistent. A cute planters pot (there is an attached garden center) held a loaf of bread, but the bread was flavorless, verging on stale, and the salted butter had much too large salt crystals making it inedible. It's tough to mess up a grilled cheese sandwich, yet somehow they managed to serve a bland sandwich on bread that was not the advertised sourdough, had none of the promised rosemary, and the cheese was not melted. If only the fries could save the day. Sadly, they were limp and reminiscent of day old microwaved fries, loaded with salt. Will not be back. read more

Wow. Such a beautiful venue. Enjoyed a fab cheese plate, might be one of the best in bucks county. Ina, our server, was outstanding. We enjoyed some wine and the tuna and steak frites. Cannot wait to come again in the fall. read more

I was really looking forward to this dining experience and was really let down! Of course the environment was absolutely beautiful, and the drinks were fantastic as well, but the food was not good. My guy and I could cook so much better at home and certainly save a lot of money. I got the mushroom frittata which was bland, wrapped it up and doused it with ketchup at home! My guy got crab quiche, small portion, fishy taste, not good. Don't need to return unless we want to splurge for drinks at the bar. Good luck if you jump in to try! Hope for better for you! read more

Pros- It's beautiful. The decor is wonderful - spa-like, natural and relaxing. Our waitress, Lucy, was wonderful - friendly and attentive. Cons-The food is just ok. This is the second time I have been there. The menu is creative. The menu items look like they should be great, however I did not find anything very flavorful. This time I had the avocado Benedict. Bland. One egg was poached. One was hard boiled. Everything I have had there is meh. And the place is LOUD, not good for conversing with your table mates. read more

We had a really nice brunch here, 5 star ambiance and service. Food was good, not great. We had the mushroom frittata, fried avacado Benedict, and the shakshuka. Benedict and shakshuka were the stand outs, will definitely go back. read more

Another great dining experience at the Terrain Cafe. We once again sat at the bar and want to recognize Diana, our server, who was wonderful - professional, efficient, warm & welcoming. We came for brunch again and it was excellent - beginning with the great flower pot bread and the flavorful butter. Our entrees, the Wild Mushroom Frittata & Short Rib with Egg were delicious. And then we had the extra bonus of shopping next door! read more

Beautiful restaurant with delicious food. I'm a regular here both for dinner and brunch. You won't regret it. Cocktails are some of the best in the area, and they have a selection of yummy mocktails as well. read more

Spontaneously decided to check out the Cafe at 2:30 on a Sunday afternoon. We were offered a high top table or seats at the bar. We were pleasantly impressed by our server, Sarah, who could not have been more helpful. Our meals were delicious as promised. The carrot cake is above all the very best. We spoke with others there and they gave us the same glowing reputation supported by multiple visits. Just a fun place to nosh and give us a place to shop afterwards. Definitely a "do over" THANK YOU AGAIN SARAH! read more

What a pleasure. It was a pretty hot day, but we ate outside under the fans. Turned out to be very nice. The service was good and our reservation was handled promptly. The carrot appetizer was phenomenal and I'm forgetting the other appetizer platter with a variety of veggies. Excellent. The atmosphere was nice and dinner was a pleasure. My wife had the salmon which she said was excellent and I had a vegetarian dish with light oil. Very nice. I know they have been shaking out a new place during a tough time in the service biz. Well done. Cheers. Oh...and the wine was great too. A lite wine, but flavorful Chardonnay by the bottle. We are going back. Outside is okay up to mid 80s. read more

Overly gentrified place with below average overly priced food. Ambiance was ok, I was literally the only non white person there. You're better off eating better food at a diner. read more

This new location still has some kinks to work out, like a previous reviewer said. The ambiance was great but It was absolutely freezing in the restaurant. The flower pot bread was great but it would have been nice to receive it as soon as we sat down as opposed to right before our dinner which took a while to come out. The quinoa bowl was dry. Even the server who seemed inexperienced mentioned it needed more tahini sauce. It was disappointing since I love the other locations and was so happy to see a Terrain come to our area. read more

Visually stunning inside, they have these beautiful seasonal flower arrangements throughout the place and has an overall nice ambiance. It's usually pretty slow but the servers are nice. Food is usually good, there's been a few misses but the short ribs are great and the cheese boards are stunning. Espresso drinks are also good. Lots of vegetarian options, I like the harvest bowl. I always love their seasonal butters that come with the bread (right now its orange cranberry). I really like visiting next door their retail space and just walk around looking at their terrariums they create in house. I only walk around though because it's very expensive read more

Start off with the service. It was very good. Waitress took our drink orders and answered questions about the menu. I had the arugula and stone fruit salad. There were 2 little tiny pieces of peach. I don't think there were pistachios in the salad either. Don't call it stone fruit salad if you have to hunt through the arugula for the stone fruit. And,Just say peach and arugula if no other fruits are in the salad. Not a lot of flavor in the dressing. The turmeric beverage was very good as was the bread and butter. Restaurant was beautiful but they definitely have to improve the food!! read more

Love the atmosphere and the unique menu....something for everyone and several vegetarian options. Table service is always friendly and prompt. Bar service varies depending on how busy.....Fridays at happy hour are always busy! read more

Ambiance is great. Service was pretty good but the food is just ok Would love it the bread pots came out hot when we sat down. The coffee was also not hot The menu is not that big read more

we went to Terrain Restaurant, in Doylestown, twice now, for their Brunch menu. The first time, we had nice, breakfasts meals, although we noted the service was a bit slow. At one point, my wife went into the restaurant from the patio, to search for our server. We revisited this Saturday. we had a 1:45PM reservation. the server came over and took our drink orders, then our meal order. At 2:45PM, food started arriving to our table. there were 3 of us. One ordered a salad as well as an entree. Two entrees were delivered; no salad; no third entree. The server asked if she should deduct the salad from the bill, but the guest still wanted it. After a few minutes his salad arrived, but not my entree (fried eggs and short ribs with hash browns.). My wife and friend both waited for my food to arrive before eating, which took another 10 minutes. My fried eggs were overcooked with hard, rather than runny yolk, and my Margherita was a very sour drink similar to a Gimlet or whiskey sour. My impression is that the waitstaff are students from Del Val University, where the restaurant is located, and they lack proper training. The kitchen staff could not handle the customer load. Altogether, it was not worth a revisit for $18-20 a breakfast. read more

Great ambiance! Cozy yet airy space with farmhouse vibes. I highly recommend the mushroom soup, which was phenomenal. Service was top notch.

*We had a reservation for over a week and when we arrived hostesses said the table they were going to seat us the patrons were staying longer than they thought they would. This was a 3 o'clock reservation so there were many tables available...only had to put two together. There were three to four people working on where to put this 6 person party! Ridiculous!! *Food poor Burgers tasted burned, roll was beyond charred Crab quiche...crust was awful, tasted like eggs about 5-6 pieces of crab..unacceptable Iced teas..Arnold Palmer had a metallic taste...obviously not fresh brewed Other flavors not good either. No bottled beer ‍ I want to like this restaurant....five minutes from my house...gorgeous atmosphere...BUT....food and management unacceptable! You need to make entrance and waiting area larger...bad traffic flow of people coming and going through this small area. read more

Neat place. Decor exquisite. Flys everywhere though. Short rib bit dry. Water had something in it

Had reservations but waited while there were 4 tables available . Ordered a Caesar Salad which was Tasteless . I even asked for more dressing , hoping that would make it taste better. Would not go back . Was hoping for a bit better service and a much better salad . Disappointed . read more

I have been to Terrain multiple times since it's opening and each time I am hoping for a better experience. Starting with the positives...the location is super convenient for me and the ambience can't be beat. Cocktails are unique, beautiful and tasty creations, although pricey. Now the negatives... the food is subpar, especially for the price, orders frequently wrong, and unfortunately, each time I have been there, the service is beyond unfriendly and inhospitable. You are either ignored or made to feel like an inconvenience. It is a shame, this place could be amazing. Time to find a new spot to gather with friends and family. read more

Nice interior and ambiance. Server was informative and attentive. Food and drinks were pretty good, but a little overpriced for what you get. read more

We went for dinner and let our hostess know it was our 1st time here. As we were seated in a few minutes a lovely charcuterie board was placed in front of us. We thought wow must be because of our 1st visit. We began eating I had a piece of bread dipped into the honey my daughter had a slice of apple and bread. A server quickly came whisked it away saying sorry wrong table. Serving it to a couple a few seats away. Is this proper service ? Understanding mix ups which happened through out our dinner. Wrong people correct table. Very unethical way of handling things. read more

Mixed review as the ambiance is good, the food is generally good but the service is odd. Bread service, in a clay flowerpot, was more beautiful than delicious. We both started with the mushroom soup ... very good. I had the burger while my husband had the tuna. Both delicious but the "salad" that came with the burger was just spring mix lettuce on the side. I don't think desserts are a strength here. We were part of a larger group wanting to catch up with each other ... the server gave me the impression that we were interrupting his flow. It was strange that the ordering system here couldn't figure out how to split the check among four couples. I doubt that we'll go back for dinner ... but perhaps breakfast, not sure. read more

I attempted to eat lunch here. I asked for a table for two and was told that there would be a wait. I said ok and I stepped to the side to wait. The woman behind me asked for a table for two and the host pulled out two menus and walked to a table. I thought it was my table- so did the woman who came in after me. I followed the host to the table and he told me the table was not for me but the other woman. I assumed she had a reservation so I went back to wait for a table. The woman still at the host stand waiting for her dining companion to arrive. I asked her if she had a reservation she said she did not have one. The host said his manager told him to take her to a table. Why would she be given a table before me when she arrived after me with no reservation and we both requested a table for 2. I arrived first, clearly I should have gotten the first available table. I know why I wasn't given the priority. Unless you want to be treated less than do not go to this place! read more

Went there for Birthday Brunch .Asked to sit at my favorite waiter's table and the hostess said that he didn't have any available table e en though he did .i ordered the breakfast dish and was excited to see it served on the board like the other location but came in on a regular dish My food was cold and sausage was uncooked and potatoes were cold and wasn't able to eat them when I mentioned something g to the waitress all she said was that "oh I am sorry " .Service was slow .Price a comparable with other location .The ambiance is really nice .Will not recommend and will not go back .Very rude staff .Be Aware read more

I was appalled when I received the bill for our meal and was charged for the refills on my ice tea. They should be ashamed. They were small on top of that. read more

Beautiful restaurant for a special occasion. Great food and service. Unique meals beautifully presented.

Food was fair to poor the service was fair. It's a beautiful atmosphere. I have no desire to ever return. There are so many restaurants in the Doylestown area with good food and great service I would pass on Terrain Cafe read more

I first want to say that I left a previous review with some negative critique and it has been removed. I know it was seen by Terrain because they responded to it. Now it's gone. I did not have a pleasant visit my first time here. It pales in comparison to the other two locations. I am a huge fan of the Glen Mills Terrain. Because the DelVal location is newer and I went in the early stages of opening while I had a less than par experience I decided to give it a second chance. I took my girlfriend for her birthday. Sadly, there has been no improvements made here. Our server was inattentive. Our food was bland. There was a drop of dressing on the salad. The bacon was pathetic. Diners do better. Our bread was undercooked and we watched a flower pot make its way to another table that looked overcooked. The paper straw is ridiculous. Don't waste your time and money here. read more

Four of us went there for lunch and no one liked their meals. Ran into friends at another table and they said the same thing. The grilled cheese sandwich was two thick pieces of bread with almost no cheese inside. The frittata was dry. The avocado toast was mostly bread with a thin spread of avocado on it. The best thing was the popover bread and butter served before our meals. Pretty place but poor menu. I would not go back, unfortunately. read more

Such a gem...love the garden style rustic atmosphere, specialty drinks and food are delic! Prices reasonable.

Terrible food - well done burger was cremated literally it was so burnt we asked for the manager who didn't even come to apologize. Fries were lukewarm at best. Don't waste your time here - it's overpriced and not worth the hype. read more

wonderful lunch and Fay, our server was awesome. Caution- dont sit by the windows bc the sun will blind everyone on one side of the table. It made it VERY difficult to enjoy the meal and conversation with friends. Need to install sun shades read more
