Think Urban Plates, but with a sharper focus on lighter eating. The avocado caesar salad with grilled tofu is amazing. The avocado adds a different kind of creaminess to the dressing than a traditional caesar, and the tofu is firm and substantial. The produce quality is noticeably good across the board. My boyfriend had the Thai Wrap and enjoyed it. The vegan options here are solid and varied. Service is reasonable, slower than fast food, but nothing that tests you. The price is on the higher end for quick healthy eats, but the quality backs it up. If you're in the area and want a lunch that actually feels light, Flower Child is worth the stop.

It is a large restaurant that is beautifully decorated. You order at the front counter, and they bring you your food. We all ordered bowls. I had the Yaki Soba bowl with chicken. It was a delicious combination of so many flavors and textures. It was very tasty. My party ordered the Mother Earth bowl and the chicken enchilada bowl. Everyone ate every bite of their food. My only complaint is the portions are a bit on the tiny side. We want more food, please! The taste and freshness were excellent.

Everything feels so fresh, cozy, and thoughtfully made. The pastries are unreal (you can taste the quality), and the coffee is always perfect. It's the sweetest place to slow down, catch up with a friend, or just enjoy a quiet morning. Their food is amazing!!! They also have the best smoothies and a spectacular Easter brunch!! If you're in CDM, this is a must-stop

I first tried this place back in 2020. My usual order is the breakfast burrito, and occasionally…read moreI'll pick up some donuts or other pastry items. The Experience: * Atmosphere: The place is really cute and has nice outdoor seating. * Service: The workers are friendly, which makes for a pleasant visit. * The Food: To be honest, the food didn't blow me away. The shop looks nicer than the food actually tastes. * Value & Logistics: The prices are just okay, and the parking can be a bit tight. Final Verdict: Three stars isn't bad--it just means this is an "average Joe" spot. It's a place I'd still come to occasionally, but it isn't at the top of my list for a standout meal.

I am updating this review based on the service provided to me after my experience at the farmers…read moremarket. I didn't get the best first impression on their customer service, but after the owners saw my complaint, they quickly contacted me to apologize and remediated my issues to my satisfaction. This made me see their product in a different light. They not only strive for quality in their products but are trying to improve their interactions with their customers which is admirable. I got the almond matcha and the coconut matcha. The coconut matcha was more to my taste as it tasted a lot lighter and more refreshing. I didn't get to try their walnut matcha as they ran out, but I am looking forward to trying it next time I am able to visit them! I hope to see they will continue to expand their service and product lines in the future.

We had a wonderful waitress named Kaitlyn. She helped seal the deal on the mocktail selection. They roasted tomato and asparagus. Fresh purée soup is delicious especially with the warm country bread. In my opinion, this is the most beautiful time to dine at the farmhouse. The flowers are gorgeous. There's butterflies hummingbirds, and of course warm sunshine.

The server got extra short and demanding with us when we didn't order cocktails since we don't drink alcohol. He got a little nicer after we ordered expensive mains, after-meal drinks and desserts. He never looked directly at one of us who's North African even when he ordered and paid for the entire meal. He was smiling, patient, and nice to everyone else around us. It was so obvious. I thought I had given this place 5 stars in the past because that's how I've always felt about this place. Beautiful, good organic food, casual/classy, outdoors.... A little expensive but the service was always EXTRA attentive so you pay for the experience.. But I realized I've always gone with white friends in the past.
