    We enjoy this place for when we want a nice breakfast outside where our kids can be kids without judgement. We recently went on a Saturday morning as a group of 4 adults and 2 kids around 9:30am and the wait ended up being around 30min to order and then about 20 minutes for the food. we ordered breakfast tacos, montecristo, standard breakfast, and my specific order was the Japanese sweet potato with brisket and wow I felt that mine was the best meal in terms of uniqueness, flavor, and very filling. Also, the orange juice is some of the best I've had around! What I also enjoy about this spot is that before/after you enjoy a nice meal at one of their picnic tables you are free to walk about and enjoy their nice property with some yard games, grassy areas, the chicken coops, and even a little store for some cute goodies to take home.

    "Chilaquiles "
    Leslie B.

    Would not recommend for breakfast. The coffee options are minimal and only to be flavored with sugar packets. We ordered the chilaquiles and they were basically the store bought chips you get for the table and an egg on top. As soon as we got it, I knew I had ordered the wrong thing. Not sure if there are better items on the menu but the other item my date ordered was also mid. The best thing about it was probably the orange juice.

    Smoked Salmon Omelet

    Such a cute spot in South Phoenix. This place is a casual outdoor farm-to-table brunch place located at The Farm at South Mountain. You order at the counter and seat yourself at a picnic table. I ordered the smoked salmon omelet, but next time I'll be getting the brisket because I tasted some and it was delish. The line was kinda long on the weekend but you can definitely spend a while here just eating and exploring parts of the farm like the gift shop and chicken coops. Good for groups when the weather is nice.

    Breakfast Burrito
    Greeshma R.

    Located at the foothills of south mountain this is your go to place for a farm to table experience. Morning glory is located inside the farm and this place is exclusively for breakfast. The farm is huge and such a fun place for family and friends. There is ample parking space as well! We went around noon and ordered farm burrito, French toast, waffle and freshly squeezed orange juice. The juice was very refreshing and was fantastic. The food is great as well, loved the burrito and the fresh toast, great flavors, warm and perfect. Waffle wasn't the best felt it was over done. The pricing is a little expensive specially a glass of juice is $7, but can't complain on the taste. The service is quick and organized Everything was great and loved the whole vibe.

    This is a the breakfast only spot that's in The Farm, a 10 acre event venue in South Mountain that hosts weddings as well as other events. The Farm also includes some Chickens and turkeys to look at as well as some veggies growing. Anyway, back to the Morning Glory Cafe, it's a popular breakfast spot as it's both Family Friendly as well as dog friendly. Seating is all outdoors picnic table style, but they also have large umbrellas you can activate for some shade. Food-wise, you line up and order/pay first while they make it, the they call your number to pick it up when it's ready. Food is decent, they have many choices. My favorites are chicken enchiladas as well as a salmon omelette. They focus on farm-to-table or at least their image, is of that, so don't be expecting some usual breakfast fare. Fresh squeezed OJ also featured but for a hefty $7 a cup. Also Coffee is drip coffee, there is no espresso machine. Overall, it's a great place if you go once every one or two months as a good change of pace from normal restaurants. I wouldn't go here more than that as some of the outdoor dining novelty may wear off.

    We got Black Coffee and Orange Juice with Chilaquiles. The service was excellent and the Ambiance at The Farm fantastic !!

    Delicious fresh squeezed orange juice

    Came here for breakfast to celebrate my niece's birthday a few weeks ago. What a beautiful setting. Having a meal surrounded by trees, flowers, and so much greenery was very nice. Service was not the best, it was a Saturday, but it took us at least 25 minutes just to get our drinks. Then about another 25 just to get our food. The food was already semi cold. I ordered the chilaquiles, which were honestly pretty bland and had no spice. I will say, I had the best fresh squeezed orange juice I've ever had in my life! It's 7 dollars for a pretty small cup, but I will say that was worth it taste wise. I will be coming back to give it another shot because I did love the ambiance. Hopefully it was just an off day.

    Chicken enchiladas, Japanese sweet potato, blue corn waffle, orange juice, Press coffee

    I think people come here for the location :) The orange juice is amazing and the loaded Japanese sweet potato is unique but everything else is kind of lackluster. We did yoga then headed over for brunch afterwards. The line was non-existent when yoga started and I was watching hoards of people walking over I started having FOMO during class!! When we finished class, the line was probably 15-20 people long. After we finished eating, there must have been 50+ people in line!! It is a destination and cute farm. Love that there are so many outdoor tables.

    Smoked salmon omelette
    Brittany T.

    The cutest cafe in the cutest location! We were in town for work and found this breakfast place on Yelp so we decided to pay a visit before exploring the area. It's located on a beautiful spacious farm with another eatery and small local shops. Service was friendly and pretty fast considering all food is made to order. I ordered the salmon omelette and only needed just a tad of salt and pepper, but still enjoyable. Definitely recommend to those looking for a picturesque breakfast/brunch place on a good weather day!

    My all time favorite brunch restaurant. I go every year during the winter to take advantage of the great Arizona weather. The Japanese sweet potato is usually my go-to order. The smoked salmon is also tasty.

    Breakfast of the year 2024. It truly can't get more farm-to-table then the Morning Glory Cafe. Ingredients are sourced by the farm on the property. Outdoor seating is plentiful and perfect for a weekend brunch. I ordered the cauliflower hash. Oh my. It was incredibly fresh and delicious. Everyone in my group loved their 'meal. And bonus that they serve press coffee.

    This was the cutest place I've been in a while. Definitely loved the farm to table and how boldly is was in our face. The service was amazing and the ambiance is totally a vibe. We ordered the sweet potato with brisket which was absolutely yummy! The meat was so tender and full of flavor. I would love to go back and eat at the other restaurant on the property!

    I came here with my family and had a lovely picnic breakfast! I wasn't sure what to expect when I came here other than the cafe. There are also chicken coops off to the side, which my toddler loved looking at (there are ducks in one of them as well as a turkey! The food was tasty. I ordered an omelette, my husband ordered some tacos (which he said were very filling!) and we ordered french toast for the kiddo ( he ate the whole thing!). We finished our breakfast and then went for a walk around the property. It is a lovely little farm with great ambiance for breakfast.

    Ask the Community - Morning Glory Cafe

    Can I walk around the farm after eating? Is there live music?

    The farm is open and large. Eat outside at the picnic areas and even hold your wedding. They have chickens, turkeys, and ducks. Flowers and crops. Enjoy.

    Do they allow dogs on the patio?

    Yes! I brought my leashed dog and they even offered my dog a water bowl :)

    Is seating Only outside? If yes are there heaters?

    Hi James, Morning Glory Cafe is outside seating only. There are heaters when the weather becomes cooler.

    We ordered a blackberry mojito and pear martini. The mojito wasn't to our taste, so the bartender…read morekindly swapped it for another pear martini. Afterwards, he mentioned that he tasted it and agreed about our comments- I appreciate that level of attention. Shortly after, the food arrived. Spicy pork tacos for me, and BLTA for my wife. The tacos looked a little overdressed. I was so wrong. Flavor and texture were balanced perfectly. The tortillas were firm, but again, perfectly suited to the juicy pork, that had a teriyaki vibe. Sprouts, carrot and cucumber toppings worked well, despite my expectations. The BLTA was HUGE. Great flavor. Both entrees were ordered with sweet potato fries. Unusual cut to them, but seasoned perfectly. I paired mine with chipotle aioli and ate every last one. My only complaint is that I'm only spending one evening in the Phoenix area, and won't be back soon. I would eat this food three times a week without hesitation.

I got the strawberry salad as a wrap, which was pretty refreshing. I think next time I'd probably try the pasta instead haha! But the sweet potatoes were deliciously great! The spinach dip was yummy! And the Alex mocktail was SO tart and delicious! It tasted just like those fruity fruit rolls haha! I added a photo because reference! Haha The restaurant was a little smaller, so seating was pretty busy. The girls working were dressed pretty casually in T-shirts and gym shorts. I guess that's the style they're going for? It was a little odd to me, but okay haha! Overall, it was a good place to grab lunch, especially if you're looking for something on the healthier side!

    A fancy restaurant with an even better view…read more We were able to snag a last minute reservation but for a late night dinner, there was plenty of seating. You can choose to sit inside or outside, but with the heat we decided on inside. We were able to have a great view of the city skyline. It felt a little stuffy and the AC/fan was quite weak, so be mindful of clothing. Our waitress was very nice and gave some good recommendations. I especially loved the complimentary corn bread and focaccia. We had the flatbread and chicken and doughnuts as appetizers. They were okay - I didn't think they were anything special and probably wouldn't order them again. I really enjoyed my main dish. From previous reviews, I was nervous to thinking the black truffle risotto and scallops would be small but they were quite large and filled me up alongside all of our appetizers. I would recommend this dish. -1 star because it took forever to receive our food. I would estimate over an hour.

We choose to sit indoors. The restaurant is very cozy with dimmed lighting to add to the evening ambiance. It has a casual feel but you can dress up or down. Some people were casual and some more dressed up. We were seated at the front by the stage where live music was about to start. I thought this would be nice since I do enjoy live music. Well the speakers were facing right at our table and it was noticeably loud when the entertainer began to play. We asked for another table. We could not hear ourselves talking. I ordered a cocktail, The Giddy Up Espresso Martini. That was very delicious! They do have a full bar, it's nice to have choices as far as alcoholic beverages. Our food, Fish & Chips, BBQ Nachos, Aged Manchego, Crusty Bread Garlic Oil & Balsamic, and Molinari Sopressata. Everything was absolutely delicious! The fries with the Fish were perfect. My favorite besides the Martini. was the Crusty Bread with Olive Oil and Balsamic. Our server was the best! Amiriya made sure our drinks stayed filled and asked us what we thought about the food.

I can't wait to try some other dishes and have another Espresso Martini. I probably would pay for a shot of Bailey's added to the drink.

From the great wood grain basement dark ambience to to the raw, regular bar, and multiple sit-down options, we have tried it all. The allure of trying to find a place down in a basement where you have to find the right elevator was pretty bad ass. The hosts along with the waitresses and bar tenders are always welcoming and knowledgeable about their food and drink. I also think it is cool that you can get lockers to store your expensive liquor for return trips. We often come here for drinks and oysters, because my wife loves oysters and they have a wide range of options that aren't exactly cheap, but don't break the bank for freshness and taste. I only really mark down the rating because the menu has been stale over the years and they used to offer elk that is no longer available. Now call that pretentions or snooty, but I think they could use some unique options to keep the experience moving each time you come in. Also, I feel a restaurant of this caliber should be evolving to match their cool vibe and unique experience. I usually get the Wren house beer but feel the beer optiosn are limiting I also feel like some of their cocktails are overpriced, but they are unique compared to other places, so maybe I am just cheap. So really this rating should be more a 4.5. What really brings you back is the cool art on the wall with a Theodore Roosevelt slant and cool sitting areas like a sofa setting in what looks like it would be his old school library. Don't get me wrong everything I have eaten here has been good, but nothing hearkens back like that elk. This place makes for an amazing tinder date if you are willing to drop that cash and make that impression, come here then hop on over to Valley bar and she will think you are magician of illusive locations if she hasn't already been there.
