You’ve had farm-to-table. But have you had farm-to-fork you can actually trust?Farm Bar doesn’t fake the sourcing, we built the farm. Brown Dog Farm grows our apples, peaches, plums, cherries, asparagus, raspberries, horseradish, and honey. When you taste it in that salad or aioli, that’s local ingredients from the Midwest showing up.The cheese curds are golden. The seasonal menu changes with the harvest. And the craft cocktails? Balanced and built on fresh ingredients.We greet you by name, fix it fast if it’s off, and send you home with a note if it’s a big night.Lakeview and Ravenswood...it’s Midwest comfort food, served like it should be for lunch, brunch and dinner.To meet added costs from the city, we've added a voluntary 3% COB fee to our checks. We understand that rising costs affect our guests too, so we will remove this fee upon request. And we brought back paper menus. No passwords or pop-ups. Just food, drinks, and whoever you came with.
