A small farm table eatery that also provides a little market of fresh produce and meats. You can also sign up for a CSA program on their website. My mom highly recommends the boneless pork chops. Grab a bite to eat at the first come first serve counter service. All of their options are healthy and fairly accessible price wise. I got the brunch bowl, which was delicious and I would order again. The eggs were the star with being fluffy and so so soft!! The pesto sauce really brought the dish together. It was a good portion and vegetarian. If you would like to add meat, it was an extra $6. Then head around in the store to check out their market, full of seasonal produce herbs, and meat! It was actually pretty busy at 2PM on a spring Friday so there may be a wait but they do have a nice patio! read more

Wise Acre Eatery - Brunch Bowl - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Great place with amazing service! Order at the counter which is awesome because it's right by the kitchen so you can see and smell all the amazing food! Small space, no reservations but in a Saturday at 10am we were seated within 10 min. There is a "patio" space that they do their best to keep heated which is where we sat. It was chilly and my feet were frozen by the end of our meal. Food was beautifully presented and delicious. Loved the sourdough toast with jam. Parking can be tricky but worth it. Will for sure be back. read more

Visited for the first time today and was pleasantly surprised. It's a farm to table store -- selling food items along with restaurant options, which was great! My food was delicious -- exceeding expectations and it was prepared and delivered very quickly. The price was fair and the ambience was comfortable - albeit rustic. Would have liked more coffee-shop options and decaf should definitely be an option, even if it's an Americano. Otherwise, 5 stars! read more

Friend and I came here ~12 pm for brunch. I had the breakfast burrito and she had the breakfast bowl. Burrito was tasty and filling. We didn't have to wait long to order at the counter but when we left about an hour later, the line was long. Service was friendly when we ordered and our found arrived quickly. Indoor and outdoor seating available. Though seating inside was a bit limited, we found an empty table. Parking in the lot was easy and I believe they have more space in a lot behind the restaurant. Though we didn't have any this time, I'd love to try their baked goods! read more

Wise Acre Eatery - Breakfast burrito - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Busy brunch place and I can see why. It's a favorite of two friends of mine who brought me here for my first visit. They have managed to put together an inventive and perfectly-sized menu while maintaining their strong farm-to-table ethic. They are partners/owners of the farm in Plato, MN, which grows almost everything they put on their plates. In addition to their restaurant offerings, they also have shelves and refrigerators selling produce from their farm. I had their Eggs Benedict, which was unique and extremely flavorful. The meat was "Turkish Pork Sausage" and the Hollandaise had a chili pepper twist that was delicious, and it was topped off with shreds of pickled fennel which was awesome. My friends each got a Veggie Scramble Special, which will vary based on what they've raised but in this case had Swiss cheese, tomatoes, and marinated onions. They were delighted with it. I loved the service and the ambience, which gave a very "bustling center of the neighborhood" vibe. That makes parking tricky, though; at 10am on a Saturday I had to walk a couple of blocks. No complaints though; I will walk those blocks again to enjoy this food. read more

Adorable modern farmhouse ambiance, cafeteria style farm-to-table dining. Delicious classic American food. Seating can be difficult, so I would recommend limiting your party size to 4 people. We really enjoyed the Farm Breakfast and the Kimchi Grilled Cheese sandwich. - Food: 5/5 Delicious Classic American. - Service: 3/5 Cafeteria style, but you can't order until your entire table arrives. - Ambiance: 4/5 Adorable Modern Farmhouse, but mold on fabric walls of patio. Service was ok. Service person working the register was friendly, but it was awkward when they wouldn't allow us to order until our entire party arrived. So we had to wait a few minutes because parking was limited in their small lot and our friend dropped us off while he parked a block away. Inside seating was limited and could only fit maybe 12 or 14 people. They do have several tables outside on the patio, including some that are covered. However it was raining heavily while we were there and our friends sitting near the walls were getting wet during our meal. Due to heavy rains all week, there also seemed to be mold on the fabric walls of the side patio. Once we all ordered and paid at the front register, we stopped at the self-service water station and found a table on the patio. Our food arrived in waves over the next 5-10 minutes. read more

A wise man once said, "farm to table with super thick bacon will make mouth water and tummy full" probably... Wise Acre is an adorable eatery with food that packs a satisfying and flavorful punch. It was a combination of flavors I wasn't expecting and it's a combination of flavors I want again and again. So if you want to make a wise choice, this wise reviewer highly recommends breakfast and lunch as Wise Acre. Enjoy!! read more

Wise Acre Eatery - Breakfast bowl - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

It's counter ordering and then you sit and wait patiently for your meal and drink. They don't have an espresso machine so it's cold press with fancy foam, brewed tea, drip coffee or fermented beverages. I had a drip coffee and it was really good. The inside feels nice and cozy. The grocery items for purchase make an interesting back drop. I would go back, I would ask that the tostada is to be separated from the rest of the huevos rancheros so that it stays crispy. It was a very delicious and filling meal! read more

I can't believe I haven't come here before. Their food is AMAZING!! I got the brunch bowl which was amazing. I couldn't eat it fast enough!!! All the flavors worked perfectly together. I also got their maple cold brew which was equally as fantastic. It's on the sweeter side though, so if you aren't a big sweet person I'd say it might not be for you. But I thought it was amazing. The restaurant is so cute and its seat yourself. We easily found a table outside on their patio, which is gorgeous. So many plants and flowers. They also have a grocery section in the store where you can buy local produce. I had to snag some fresh tomatoes. I absolutely loved Wise Acre and will definitely come back!! read more

I was stranded in Minneapolis for a few days due to flight cancellations, and this restaurant was an unexpected bright spot. The Huevos Rancheros were seriously so good that I ended up coming back just to order them again. The pickled onions, slaw and seasonal greens make it taste very fresh. The Farmie Palmer is also worth ordering. The place was very busy for Sunday brunch, so get here early if you don't want to wait for a table. Or, come here on Monday for breakfast - it was pleasantly quiet. read more

I picked wise acre for a birthday celebration and I had never been. As others have said in reviews, the service is very rude. Not all of the employees are, but it seems as some of them go out of their way to be rude, which is definitely not what you want for Customer Service at a restaurant! The mood and personality of the staff somewhat ruined our family celebration and brunch. A day later, I ended up Getting sick and learned, a family member of mine was sick from the food. Upon finding us out, I immediately called the manager, Jimmy, who rather than listening to our experience in the food that we had, just told me to call the state department immediately he said that it could be something else that I ate. I responded that it was nothing else that I ate because I was unable to eat after I ate at wise acre due to being too sick. Again, he didn't even ask what we both ate. He seemed defensive. I told him that we were not overly sick, but we just wanted to let the restaurant know asap. Needless to say, this is a very cool place of a good atmosphere, but I will not be going back. read more

High quality, restaurant that is about as "farm to table" as you can get. The Tangletown Farm supplies the garden center next door and restaurant with seasonal flowers, greens, vegetables, meat, and just salt anything else you'd expect. I've visited their farm in Plato and it's definitely a case where you can tell "happy animals make tastier meals". The food isn't cheap, but they don't skimp on portions or quality. Some of the best pork and produce I've ever had. If you see the Ham Jam Scram on the menu, don't skip it. I wish it was a staple! The dining room is fairly small but they also have a little, covered patio that's dog friendly. Parking can be tough given the small lot but there's plenty of street options nearby. They converted some of the dining room into a really nice market for their farm goods as well as other local makers. Service has always been good but can sometimes come off as a little aloof. They're generally happy to answer any questions you have and get you anything you need. Overall I love this place and it's one of my favorites. Definitely style of the most flavorful, fresh ingredients in the cities. read more

We went to Wise Acre Eatery for Mother's Day this year. We were expecting the restaurant to be packed, but there were plenty of spaces to sit down around 9:30 am. This isn't your usual sit down restaurant though, you actually order your food and pay for it at the counter and they deliver it to your table once it's ready. The inside of the restaurant was super cute and earthy. I loved the decor! The food is also farm to table and you could purchase other items to take home if you would like. I ordered the eggs Benedict and would definitely recommend! It was super fresh and tasty! The creamer for the coffee was also very thick, I loved it! I really enjoyed my experience here and would recommend! read more

This restaurant is a laid back farm to table experience where you order at the counter and they bring out the food to wherever you choose to sit! The staff was very friendly and gave recommendations. Their patio area is beautifully adorned with flowers and other greenery. I ordered the Huevos Rancheros with Korean braised beef which was delightfully balanced breakfast packed with flavor. I also ordered the cold pressed Five Watt Headliner sparkling with lemon . This drink was extremely refreshing ( think Arnold palmer but with coffee instead of tea). read more

Wise Acre Eatery - Cheddar biscuit sandwich with Wise Acre Ham or Sausage - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

The definition/best example of a farm-to-table restaurant with locally grown and raised (on their own farm, Tangletown - their farm day is great!) and sourced ingredients. Their dishes feature what they grow and raise - the meat is always perfectly cooked, moist, tender, and flavorful in itself and its seasonings; vegetables are picked at their peak and prepared in a way that accentuates their flavors. The restaurant is a tiny bit cramped during busy hours. If you'd rather cook/prepare what's grown and raised on the farm yourself, Wise Acre has a market with their and other local goods. The farm also offers CSA (community supported agriculture) shares with varying (depending on what's in season) vegetables and fruits - we've purchased a share the past few years and it's great having super fresh produce each week (some things we've had for the first time!) from June-ish through October-ish. read more

I met some colleagues here for a work meeting. Unfortunately, I had already eaten breakfast so I didn't get to enjoy the good, healthy food they had to offer. My colleagues said their meals were exceptional. I was going to order my go-to coffee and the staff suggested a hot cider. Great suggestion. It was so warm and cozy and a wonderful option for a chilly fall morning. I loved looking through all the fresh fruits and veggies for sale. I will be back for a meal soon. read more

Nice staff good food , great ambiance. Place opens at 8am, over in California breakfast places usually open at 6-7am no biggie though. They had a nice outdoor seating area where we enjoyed our breakfast, enjoyed a great conversation with some Minnesota natives that grew up in this same small town. If your looking for a great quality tasty restaurant look no further. read more

The citrus wild rice salad is a pretty rainbow of greens, radish, tomato, picked veggies with a soft jammy egg on a bed of wild rice. Yes, it's as delicious as it looks. The greens are perfectly dressed, just a whisp on every piece of lettuce (not soaked in dressing, and no pieces without). I also tried the corn chowder, which I suppose is as good as a vegetarian soup can be. It's chock full of veggies, but the broth is a little thin tasting without any meat. The corn bread has a nice, rough texture studded with bits of fresh corn. But it was a little soggy and falls apart if you pick it up. I dumped the crumbs into the soup, which really improved the flavor. I also like that it wasn't too sweet. It's actual corn bread, not a muffin/cake. The service is polite, if a bit cold and perfunctory. Make sure you stop by the magical Tangletown Gardens next door for some pretty plants to brighten your home. read more

They have great food. I had breakfast there and love the pork sausage that pork sausage was some of the best I've ever had.

F2T baby!! I know that's annoying like Lyle from The Internship but it's true - Wise Acre Eatery sources most of its food from Tangletown Gardens' 100 (or 180) acre farm in Plato MN, which has Scottish Highland Cattle, Berkshire and Black hogs, and free range chickens, ducks and turkeys. Not to mention, you'll always have a wide variety of fresh produce in your meal. To be honest, I've only eaten here for breakfast, numerous times, but every time has been fantastic and I've left full and satisfied. Located close to the intersection of Lyndale Ave. S. and Diamond Lake, Wise Acre Eatery has a small parking lot that holds maybe 10 cars, but there's plenty of street parking that's free and who doesn't mind walking a little when you are going to eat? The restaurant is quaint - small enough to feel intimate but large enough to seat plenty of guests and there's a counter if you prefer to eat by yourself, which I sometimes do. The Wise Acre Brunch menu isn't huge but it has plenty of good options - I've tried the "If You Must" which is egg and herb scramble, farm potatoes (which are great), choice of sausage or ham and cornbread muffin. You can substitute bacon for $3. I've also done the omelet of the day and one of my pictures is the CSA hash. Being a person who grew up on meat & potatoes, I was a little skeptical at first because it said "farm vegetables" but let me say, it was REALLY good and filling. The hash also includes the egg & herb scramble, which is really more like a soft scramble but not runny like it is in Europe/London and cottage ham. Also served with a cornbread muffin. Don't waste stomach space on the cornbread (even though it's pretty good), go for the good stuff! Wise Acre also has good Five Watt coffee and I got a Chai Tea Latte made with oat milk. Everything here is great, locally sources and sustainable for the environment. I definitely recommend Wise Acre and will be back soon! read more

Enjoy the farm to table food which is thoughtfully prepared and tasty. But servers and staff had an awful attitude today's breakfast/brunch -- multiple servers repeatedly complain about patrons sitting before ordering (though that's stated policy on sign) despite multiple open tables, being generally hasty and glum. It felt like someone served a sh*t sandwich as a staff meal before opening. I just moved from 11 years in New York City, where my expectations for niceties were tempered, so I'm pretty reasonable on this front. In short, it's too bad the overall depressing caused a dark cloud over otherwise good food. Our breakfast experience ruined with every reason to publicly announce this disappointment. read more

The smell of delicious food when I walked into the restaurant the morning of Friday Jan 31, 2025 got me excited. Then, I experienced the worst service I've ever had at a restaurant. Horrible service at the counter. Treated as an inconvenience. She should find a different job, she's not cut out for service. Absolutely appalling. I would have purchased breakfast and went shopping from their refrigerators filled with farm fresh meats and fixings. I chose not to because I was treated horribly. So disappointed. read more
