    BBQ Chicken Melts and Berry-licious Smoothie
    Fiona H.

    Always stopped at the works for a quick lunch and a healthy drink! Their #BBQChickenMelts is so fresh and delicious! Simple ingredients but healthy and flavorful! It's my first time trying their #Berry-Licious smoothie too! Love it!

    Everything Bagel
    Chelsea A.

    I've been here one time and it was a successful bagel run. Love that the everything bagel has the right amount of salt, thick cream cheese, and it's warm and crispy from the toast--it is checking all the boxes. Overall 8.7, I'm knocking this place only for taking a hot second to make two bagels and it could be a little hotter. Overall, fire bagel.

    Great bagels and sandwiches. We mostly do take out, but we like the vibe of the Durham location. The app is easy to use.

    So my daughter goes to UNH and we have driven past this farm several times on our way to the campus…read morefrom NJ. My daughter had been here a few times and loved picking up fresh produce during the season. Is there a better time to stop then on a cold, wintery, snowy, Thursday afternoon? We were so happy that we did. This is going to be a must stop for us on all our future pickups and drop-offs with our daughter. We love the charm and appeal of the main store. Knowing it was the off season, their stock of fresh produce wasn't as abundant ( my daughter's word) as it normally was. However, if you want jams, jellies, syrups, chips, pretzels, fresh eggs, varieties of pasta, beauty care products, and coffees, this is your place. They have a nice selection of fresh prepared food options to go like sandwiches, noodles, and soups. Plenty of healthy and organic choices. The prices were very reasonable considering I'm from New Jersey, especially the maple syrup. We noticed there was a nice outdoor patio with tables where customers could relax and enjoy a coffee, dessert, or a food item of their choice in better weather. The staff was very friendly and warm. Plenty of free parking. We can't wait to go back when the weather is better and the fresh produce options are ABUNDANT!

    Cute farm with adorable goats you can interact with…read more Farm store has lots of local stuff: produce, meats, salsas, jams, honey, syrup, baked goods, beer. The blueberry whoopie pie with lemon filling was TO DIE FOR. Best thing I've eaten in a while.
