Farmstead Cafe

I went to the Farmstead Cafe in downtown Luther, America to enjoy their Thursday Special, the $27 Irish Pub Burger. No, it wasn't really $27 dollars, but I guarantee you, the same burger in a swanky big city place with some chef throwing salt at you would cost that! (For the record, my entire lunch, which could have been split into two meals, was just under $15, including my drink.) This burger was fantastic, folks! (Of course all of their food is amazing...). Starting with a 1/3lb patty of their locally sourced fresh ground beef, it was topped with their Irish whisky BBQ sauce, sautéd onions, smoked cheddar, onion crisps, arugula, and thick bacon. Served on a toasted bun and a choice of one of their delicious sides (I went with the potato salad and it was a great pairing with the burger...it is mayo based, so be prepared--no mustard salad there.). I've had lots of burgers, and many claim to be "the best". I will say it's one of the best gourmet burgers you'll have in this area. You can also build your own from a lonnnnggg list of options. If you haven't been to Farmstead, they serve a variety of home cooked specialties, with daily rotating specials to complement their menu. They serve craft sodas (the black cherry is my go-to) in addition to other drinks. They also have ready to cook antibiotic and hormone free beef and pork, Marak Family Farm milk, as well as jams, jellies, coffee and more. Of special note is their "Gluten Friendly" and allergy sensitive options. If you have an allergy or sensitivity to certain ingredients, talk with them about your options--they can most likely recommend choices or make adjustments to the menu to help accommodate you. As they stated, they can't say they are "gluten free" or such, because food is prepped in a common kitchen, where other foods are prepared, but they can help minimize crossover and maximize flavor!

Absolutely amazing restaurant! So grateful to find a place with Gluten Free Biscuits and gravy that are this delicious! Almost everything on the menu can be made gluten free and they don't charge extra for it! Definitely worth a trip out to Luther. Also recommend the Lumberjack. Great atmosphere and great place to take the kids to! 10/10!
