An all time favorite in Fergus Falls! Such a fun, clean, and healthy option! Easiest to grab a bite there but I do believe they do take out orders. The menu has some very creative and tasty options and the food never disappoints. read more

Great local spot in fergus falls. The staff at the fabled farmer was great, very friendly and attentive. They have a nice patio outside and a cute rustic vibe inside.

The Fabled Farmer - Thai bowl - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Fergus Falls, Minnesota

Delicious salads and fresh juices. Great service and nice atmosphere. A treat in the area for breakfast and lunch.

The very best food, ingredients and friendly staff. I look forward to coming to Fergus Falls and eating at The Fabled Farmer!

One of the best lunches I've had since moving to North Dakota. Refreshing change from the typical chain restaurants. The food was fresh and light and delicious. Great service. Wish we didn't live so far away. read more

I love this place. The food is so fresh. The soup du jour was a chicken lime avacado soup and it was amazingly tasty. Great coffee, lemon water, and delicious salmon. Was here 2 years ago and have been wanting to return. Menu changes from breakfast to lunch at 11am. Would like to try the breakfast sometime too. The atmosphere is quaint like an old farmhouse. Excellent service too. Everyone is super nice. read more

Such a cute place!! The Thai steak bowl was spicy and amazing! Food was fresh. Service was good.

I just had the burger, and it was perhaps one of best I have ever had ! Also had the lemon raspberry cake which is excellent read more

What a gem! The service was impeccable and our breakfast was fantastic. I had the avocado toast and a side of the farmer potatoes, while my husband had the egg scramble bowl with bacon and fresh-pressed juice. The ingredients were quite phenomenal. Flavorful and fresh. And gorgeously assembled. I adore that they offer a menu of eight kickass breakfast entrees to choose from with sides to add and GF baked treats. And those GF baked treats, let me tell you. The GF strawberry glazed donut was made by our waitress! How awesome is that?! The GF blueberry pecan cookie was the perfect blend of salty-sweet chewy crispiness. And the chocolate chip banana zucchini muffin was absolutely delicious. I'm not from the area (I live in the Twin Cities) but cannot wait to be back again. read more

We were driving up I-94 on a roadtrip and found The Fabled Farmer on Yelp. It looked and sounded a little healthier than your run-of-the-mill diner, so we detoured to try it. We are very glad we did, as the food and coffee were delicious, with options for vegetarians/vegans, and the space was unpretentious. We were traveling with our 9-month old, and they had high chairs. There was also a deck outside where we could all stretch our legs. All the food was super fresh and I wish I'd tried a juice in addition to the delicious coffee! read more

I LOVE this place!! It's my favorite place to be in Fergus Falls. I live in AZ but come to Fergus for the summers to be with family and I always make sure I go here as much as I can because the food is AWESOME!!! I love that I can get a healthy meal and leave not feeling gross. Fergus needed a healthy restaurant, and Mary (the owner) delivered. It's a must try!!! read more

The food is healthy filling and fast. The service here loves what they are doing and will share their favorite beers and menu options. And they are just fun to be around. Small town, the local best. Informal ambience and a quick healthy meal. I vote for the falafel wrap - excellent! read more

We drove in from an hour away to eat here,Well worth the time! I ordered a delightful Salmon, seasoned with asian spices,on a bed of organic mixed greens.We split a huge salad,that was again wild greens,mixed with a mild blue cheese and toasted nuts,MMMMMM- my sweet date had a grass fed beef burger that was as he said 'It was the most taste beef ever had!"The only thing that could have added to the total enjoyment would be a nice glass of wine with the meal,They only serve teas,and coffee,Plus they sell it appeared to be their specialty fruit juices all made on site. I highly reccommend eating here,the best 1 hour destination! Very fair prices for the high quality of food that they serve! read more

The sandwiches were delicious and the service was good. We found their prices reasonable and they had excellent desserts.

Careless or poorly executed preparation of the 'Thai Bowl'. Steak was seared on too high a heat and then not given any time to rest. The lime wedge was cut from a lime that had clearly turned, the color of the skin and flesh indicate such. The vegetable medley was an odd assortment for a Thai dish, but I understand the intent of sourcing locally. That being said, simply slicing and sautéing vegetables is rather boring. Rice was not fresh and was over cooked. Finally the entire dish's flavor is overwhelmingly dominated by chili paste (sriracha). The execution of this dish is something I would expect from a 19 year old college student who's parents started giving them grocery money instead of a meal plan. read more

This place was packed when the 6 of us dropped in for lunch. It's a little tricky to locate since it's behind another building off Lincoln on the west side of downtown next to a new bank. They offer breakfast and lunch so hours are somewhat limited. The clientele appeared to be younger than other cafes in town with several students finishing their meals. The wait staff was very friendly and warned us that some items were already sold out. We thoroughly enjoyed an excellent meal including avocado toast, a tuscan bowl, burger with fruit bowl, and BLT and a grilled cheese sandwich. It was all good and we agreed that FF is probably the best place in town. They also offer baked goods and juices. They have outdoor dining available which is helpful since their interior space is limited. read more

So good. Try it! My husband was hesitant to try it because he thought the menu was not his idea of breakfast food but it was so good. We will be back! read more

This is a fairly rural area and to find an organic restaurant that has multiple vegetarian and vegan options was fantastic. The water alone was worth it, flavored by strawberries, orange and lemon slices. Delicious! read more

The Fabled Farmer - Thai Bowl and south west bowl - yummy! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Fergus Falls, Minnesota

What an awesome place - I stopped here for lunch with my mom while we were in town getting groceries. I've been trying to eat healthy recently and saw the menu and was sold. On top of that the salmon bowl I had was an incredible blend of flavor and perfectly portioned. Even the green tea was delicious! On my way out the door I also had one of the blueberry pecan cookies and was amazed. End to end fantastic experience, great service, clean restaurant and will absolutely be back! In this part of Minnesota it's easy to make good burgers and anything meat based, to create farm to table healthy meals that are extremely flavorful is rare. Very fairly priced too! read more

Great food, customer service, and atmosphere. My favorite is the grass fed burger. In the current environment, take out is what we do at least once a week. read more

Another exceptional visit to The Fabled Farmer today. I had the Breakfast Skillet, one of today's specials. It was so darn good and so darn moist. Even when I reheated the leftovers at home tonight. Still SOOOO moist! This place is such a breath of fresh air in this small town. I'm so happy The Fabled Farmer is here! read more

Cozy little café with tasty and nutritious offerings, certainly worth a detour off the interstate if you are ever in the area. The service was friendly and attentive. read more

Amazing! They make their own juices on site. I had a beet ginger pear. It was a little heavy on the beet. My husband made his own juice combo ginger cucumber pear and apple.

We stopped by for lunch and were pleasantly surprised. The food was very good. They had a lot of local and fresh ingredients. It is a quaint and affordable place. They had a small patio but we were there on a cold and gray day. read more

Food is great but service is a bit lacking. They have a seating area outside n even if they know u r sitting outside they forget about u. Everyone that sat outside when I was there took them forever to get their food so if u r there for a lunch break n seat outside if not enough time. read more

Absolutely the best experience. The staff is wonderful. The food is second to none, fresh and delicious! The prices are extremely reasonable. We travel a lot for work & just happened across this little gem. We WILL go out of our way to visit here again. read more

A gift to Fergus Falls community. We have always appreciated the positive energy of the staff and the delicious offerings. Today I had Avocado Toast. In the past I've had the scrambled eggs for breakfast with a nice cup of coffee. We don't often go out for lunch but this place calls to my taste buds pretty often. So pleased that this is a lunch choice in our town. Thank you. read more

Great fun to have a distinctly new choice for lunch in Fergus Falls. Nancy had the miso salmon fillet with barley and I had the meatballs on squash polenta with broccoli. I tasted both and they were delicious; each had a welcomed little element of surprise. I watched some burgers and salads stroll by and will need to come back to try them too. Mary, the owner, was busy making juices to order and when I feel like being especially healthy, I'll need to order one. Less than a week open and their service was excellent, upbeat and seemed well organized. Energetic, yet laid back atmosphere. Sorry about the photo of half eaten food; I was overly eager to dig in. We will be back and we wish them well! read more
