Love going to Farmside kitchen. Even when the line is long, their staff always has it moving quickly. All of the ingredients are locally sourced and fresh. My favorite bowl is the rancher with double chicken. I highly recommend getting one of the fresh juices -- I don't think I've ever tried one that wasn't good! read more

When I walked in, there was a huge line, so I was already sure that the food was going to taste good. Service was quick and helpful. Food tasted fresh and delicious. I just wish there were more options to fill the bowl. Really tasty and very good price! read more

Wonderful Salads and you get to create what YOU want!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love this!!!! Yum!!!!!

I love various options. It is like having a upscale chipotle. I love their root veggie bowl - it is really great. I also love other vegetarian options. The seating is a bit tight during lunch as line forms - I wish they grew the space for the restaurant. But it is my one of my favorite lunch spots. read more

I'm so conflicted on this review! If flavor packed fresh food is your thing, this is a great and fast sappy to grab something. 5/5 stars if you have zero medical restrictions. If you're immunocompromised, it's really tough to find a good compromise here. For diabetic people, their detailed nutritional menu is awesome because it has all the carbs and people can dose correctly with insulin. 5/5 for taste! 5/5 for options for people with different dietary preferences. 1/5 for options for people who have to eat an immunocompromised diet (active treatment cancer patients, transplant patients, those with certain autoimmune conditions). This may seem like a small population, but over 10 million Americans are immunosuppressed. The options here are endless and the combinations are delightful! However, I have to limit my trips when I don't have my family with me because I don't know what's safe for them on their menu. The inside is super fun! Clean, cheerful, and the decor is farmhouse without drowning you in gray and shiplap. The staff is always friendly and they get super busy!! My number 1 top pick is the Farmside! The build your own bowl is also fantastic. Lots of options for kiddos, too. I love what this place stands for and they practice sustainability throughout their entire business. I just wish I could hit them up more. read more

I wouldn't order from here again I placed an order online specifically said "NO AVOCADO HIGHLY ALLERGIC" and come to find out the cilantro lime dressing has Avocado and it doesn't mention that online. When I picked up my salad there was a note on the lid that "cilantro has avocado" and placed the dressing cups inside the salad bowl. I open my salad to find two slices of avocado. This is beyond words as this major mistake could have cost me my life. I went to the restaurant and got my money back but this could have been such a tragic incident. If you have any allergies please be careful as they have items on their menu that they don't acknowledge read more

Out of town and looking for a quick but yummy place to grab a quick bite before our flight. This place is awesome. My hubby and I chose a couple of pre designed salads and they both did not disappoint. He had the Kale and Quinoa with light dressing and a cup of extra on the side. I had the Farmside with the dressing the same as his. So fresh and yummy. Highly recommend. read more

Food is fantastic. Would give a 5 but I think they are too expensive. Today they were so packed that there was no parking and a line out the door. I ordered ahead and my order was ready when promised. Delicious! read more

This is a salad place where you can get their signature salads or make your own. Lots of fresh, healthy ingredients to choose from and the portion is a good size. I couldn't even finish mine. We got the "Rancher" which is like a southwestern type salad made with grilled chicken, shredded kale, black beans, avocado, roasted corn, onions, shredded cheese and corn tortilla chips. Many dressings to choose from, we got cilantro lime and it was delicious! The restaurant was clean and employees were friendly. read more

Pretty good, quick, and healthy meal!! I really love being able to make my salad how I want. I only tried one salad so far and the dressing I thought was okay not the best I ever had but the topping and everything else was great. Next time I just got to try another dressing to find the right one for me. But overall would go again read more

They have super fresh and tasty salads! Not two words that you normally put together when talking about salads.

I ordered online and picked it up. First, the serving size was grand. I had enough food to last me another day. It was a really nice place to eat. They had so many different options I got the build your own salad. The service was quick because I picked it up. I would go again and it wasn't that expensive so that's a plus! read more

So this was a traditional cafeteria style restaurant. I think that we were in and out in less than 40 minutes for a lunch. My wife loved her barbecue chicken and would go back for that as the sole reason. I love the fact that it's great food, it's fast, and it's bare bones. read more

This is a nice little salad bowl place that I tried for the first time. They specialize in "Farm Bowls" which can either be chosen from the menu or you can decide to make your own. The restaurant is a farm-to-table concept, which seems to utilize quite a few growers within the NC area. They list the specific growers used and it appears to range from slightly larger operations to some micro-growers, too. Everything was very fresh and the bowls were delicious. As pointed out from other visitors, you can choose how much dressing you'd like in your bowl. While some combinations may seem a little peculiar if you're not well-versed in this trend, I'd suggest you just give it a try and see how it tastes! I ordered the Farmside and I was pleasantly surprised by just how well the roasted sweet potatoes paired with the gala apples and everything else! It's apparent they've spent a lot of time thinking about the combination of ingredients and it's hard to go wrong picking one from the list. I would definitely recommend this place and I will most likely make a stop the next time I'm in the Durham area. read more

Great build your own bowl options. Tons of topping options. Friendly service. Healthy. Great for lunch or dinner.

Probably the best salad experience I've had! Their ingredients are so fresh and they come from local farms. Wide variety of veg and meat options. Service is quick! Ambience is good too because they have outdoor seating and indoor with tall windows - ton of natural light. I've been here twice, but this time I ordered the GOAT salad with a strawberry lemonade and it were both really good. Highly recommend this place and we'll definitely be frequent customers :) read more

Now I can see what all the FOMO is about with Farmside Kitchen. Last week, we stopped in for lunch and ordered 2 Farmside Caesar salads. This salad is so interesting but so good at the same time. When you first enter Farmside Kitchen, you'll notice the multiple beverage options in the large, clear, cascading containers, such as lemonades, kale drinks, and so on. Then you make your way up to the left and place your order, Subway-style. There are plants for purchase on site, which are the same farm-to-table plants used for the food you're about to consume. They're all on display. As you convey your ingredient choices to the saladologist, they begin mixing and tossing it all in so that the work is already done for you. It's quick, efficient, delicious, and nutritious. I'm not used to having roma tomatoes in a Caesar, nor quinoa, but they work in this salad. I was a fan of the cheese crisps used to garnish, but I may ask for half of the amount next time since it tasted like a strong, sharp cheddar and overpowered a few of my bites. That's just if I'm being picky, though. After finishing this lunch, it kept me satisfyingly full for the next 5 hours and didn't upset my stomach one time. Quality, farm-to-table ingredients at a pace quicker than a deli, fast-food joint? I'm signed up now and know where to enjoy a fine salad. 4.8 STARS!! read more

I had never been here before then all of a sudden eaten here / ordered take out 3x recently with 2 diff groups of people. Super fresh, yummy food. Decent prices (though extra $2.5 for veggies feels like a lot). Their signature chicken is really good. As is their jalapeño dressing! Cute and casual ambience too! read more

This is our fist time here and we can honestly say these bowls are amazing! I choose The Pitchfork bowl (no cheese) and my husband went with Build Your Own! The Salads are full of flavor. Ingredients are fresh and the dressing choices complete the salad. There is something for every one here wether your a meat lover or not.. The staff was welcoming and made our first visit a pleasant one. The ambience is charming, with a modern rustic feel and clean. read more

Farmside Kitchen is open in the space previously occupied by Gusto. My husband and I both chose one of their farmbowls, it was the Rancher for me and the Kale and Quinoa for him. These bowls packed so much flavor and were delicious. I also got a white chocolate macadamia nut cookie and it was amazing. For drinks he tried the rosemary lemonade and black tea and I got a beer. The space is nice, you can sit inside or outside and the service was friendly. I can't wait to return. read more

The food was Literally half cooked i ordered the Grain SIlo and the i could still see chicken blood or whatever it is inside it the service was alright the server wasnt much talkative and just took our order and left which was alright to me because everyone is different the ambience was good but the food is the whole point of a restraunt. After the food came and i told the server it was raw he brought out his manager and he said he couldnt give me a refund and i said no i want one and i kept persisting and in the end they gave me a 30% refund.... The ambiance was good ig. read more

You guys.... This place was 10/10 would recommend. I ordered delivery, so I can only comment on the food but I would ABSOLUTELY go again. The food gave me Happy + Hale vibes, which I'm so into. Everything was fresh, ingredients were great, and I didn't even have to use my dressing that came with because it tasted so good without it. Both my partner and I did build our own bowls and both were impressed. I also ordered a chocolate chip cookie and a white macadamia nut cookie. I didn't really care for the chocolate chip, but loved the white macadamia nut, but my partner loved the chocolate chip. We are definitely excited to go in person and will absolutely order delivery again! read more

Calling all Yankees who miss being close to a Sweetgreen (I'm looking at you, Brooklynites outbidding me for houses in Durham)! This is the closest thing I have been able to find to my favorite, treasured northern salad chain. Sure, there are places like Happy and Hale and Chopt. And those are fine, but if you want Sweetgreen-level good...this is where you need to come. Farmside is fresh and has fun, seasonal bowls and drinks. The staff is nice, and it's your usual pick-your-own salad or try theirs from the menu. There are vegetarian, vegan and carnivore options -- I especially liked the chile-lime tofu. Until I return to RTP for work, I'll trek out here when I want some green goods. Hopefully more open up around the area! read more

The bowls were delicious! I appreciated the healthy options, fresh ingredients and great flavors! I will go back when I'm in the area again!

Farmside Kitchen is a new, healthy fast-casual spot in Durham and I am a huge fan so far! From their mission and willingness to work with local farmers, to their menu and beautiful interior design, you can tell that the owners have put in a lot of hard work and care into this concept. The first time I stopped by, I was with a friend, and then decided to bring a few more pals with me on my second visit because we loved it so much. That being said, I was able to try several of their menu items! A couple of my favorite Farmbowls are the G.O.A.T and The Farmside. Honorable mentions go to the Rancher and the Kale & Quinoa. Their hand-crafted beverages are also great! We particularly enjoyed the Mango Apple Kale & Sparkling Passionfruit Ginger. You can't go wrong with the avocado toast, too- simple but delicious! Staff and management are very friendly and knowledgeable! The parking lot is shared with a few other businesses but I haven't had an issue with finding a spot which is great. There are also several tables in front of the store, so if it's a nice day you can enjoy your meal in the sunshine. I can't wait to come back again because there are still a few menu items I'd like to try (like the mac and cheese and the Grain Silo)! read more

I spent the night in Durham because I had a 6am flight. Looking for somewhere that was easy and healthy. Never heard of Farmside and the menu is a little short. Picked the The Rancher with the southwest grilled chicken. I was one of the best salads I've had in a long time. I also got the avacado toast, which was a nice compliment. I also found the price to be a great deal. I'll definitely be back. read more

A friend of mine told me about Farmside and I have been to the previous location called Gusto. She raves about the salad bowls so we used them today for a catered lunch. I contacted Elizabeth and she helped me create a delivery order for our team and ordering was extremely easy. We had a variety of salad farm bowls with vegetarian options and meat options. The team only had positive tings to say and loved the fresh and healthy options. I had the GOAT salad with roasted sweet potatoes, apples, goat cheese, cranberries and pomegranate vinaigrette. It has a tart and sweet flavor and is a great summer salad with fresh arugula and no meat. They also serve Mac n cheese and avocado toast. I highly recommend this option if in the RTP area nearby and will make an effort to go in person next time to experience the restaurant setting. read more

You like Salad? I hate Salads. But my Doc tells me I've got to eat them. So if you must eat Salad like me, then this is the spot. The food is FRESH WITH A CAPITAL"F", the service is outstanding and the specialty teas are to die for. Whenever I go I always build my own. The variety of options is nice. I highly recommend this place, even if you hate Salad. The only thing missing for me is Halle Berry, I'm talking about the salad dressing. Listen get there early because at Lunch time they are packed. - Bon Appetit read more

Healthy and fresh food sourced from local farmers? Yes please! I visited Farmside kitchen on their opening day to try out one of their salad bowls. At the time, COVID restrictions were still in place so seating was limited. I choose to get my salad to go. Farmside is kind of set up like Chipotle or Blaze pizza where you can create your own bowl or choose a bowl from the menu. At the time we were only allowed to pick options from the menu (however now you can build your own bowl). I choose The Rancher - grilled chicken, black beans, corn, avocado, feta cheese, red onion, tortilla chips, kale and brown rice topped with a cilantro lime dressing. The salad portion was very generous and the price was reasonable. I really enjoyed the salad and the ingredients complimented each other very well. Next time I'm in Durham I will definitely stop by. read more

Stopped in for quick dinner with family we picked up from airport. Food was very fresh and delicious. We had the rancher, the Kale and Quinoa with chicken and the Farmside bowl, all better than expected. Staff was very friendly and quick to fill our orders exactly as we wanted. Definitely will be back. read more

I have to say, I'm not much of a salad person, but I absolutely loved Farmside Kitchen! I got The Pitchfork bowl, which was a vegetarian bowl that had chili lime tofu, cucumbers with pickled onions, spicy toasted pumpkin seeds, feta cheese, lentils, shredded romaine, red cabbage, fire roasted corn, shredded carrots, cherry tomatoes, mediterranean vinaigrette, and lemon tahini drizzle. My boyfriend got The Farmside, which we had to try because it's named after the restaurant! It had signature grilled chicken, roasted sweet potatoes, gala apples, goat cheese, sliced toasted almonds, shredded kale, brown rice, and balsamic vinaigrette. We also got a grilled cheese sandwich, which was decadent and tasty, but pretty oily. The Pitchfork bowl was good, but honestly I think I put too much of the vinaigrette in it so it became overwhelming. I was a MUCH bigger fan of my boyfriend's Farmside bowl and ended up stealing the rest of his, oops. It was so good! I can see why it's named after the restaurant. I can't wait to try some of their other bowls, but may have to stick with getting The Farmside for the next couple of trips! read more
