The Farm Cart - Athens

This is a great alternative to being to downtown Athens. We sat under a covered shade area with fans on a sunny June day. The serving sizes are very large so plenty to share. Biscuits are amazing as is the chicken which is locally sourced. I love a responsible venue with fantastic food. This is a casual setting. The jalapeño pimento cheese is classic southern with the right amount of heat as it is the Habanero pepper jelly. This is a great stop and should be put on your list

We had a party of 5 around 10:45 on a Sunday. You wait in line to order at the counter, then sit to wait for your food, which they bring to you. There weren’t any open tables when we got to the front of the line, so they made us stand there and wait to order. When a table finally did open up, we were then allowed to order. We got the Veggie with Cheese Grits $8.50 $1.50), the Veggie with Home Fries $8.50 $1.50), a chicken biscuit, a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich on an everything bagel, and the Fire Bird $11). Everyone really, really enjoyed their sandwiches. They were all delicious. The cheese grits and home fries were great too. Two complaints: The prices. The biscuit sandwiches do not come with a side. The sandwiches were actually pretty big and we quickly realized that we didn’t need sides to fill us up. However, given how high the prices are, I think they sandwiches should come with a side. Either include the side, or lower the prices. The ordering/seating situation. I understand that they don’t want to pay for waiters and that it’s cheaper the way they currently have it, with ordering at the counter and running the food out. I also understand that they don’t want to take our order and then bring the food out and not have a table for us to eat it at. It was still annoying that we were at the front of the line and we couldn’t order because there wasn’t an open table. If they had taken our order when they knew a table was finishing up, then we could’ve gotten our food a lot sooner and they would’ve been able to turn our table quicker. Clearly they have some situations to work out with service and hopefully prices. However, the food was amazing and clearly people are paying the premium for it) and that’s what’ll keep people coming back.

Each of us got more than one meal out of our food! Huge portions and all very fresh. The cornbread was outstanding ask for it warmed up and it's life changing! Definitely go early. As we were leaving, tables were all full and the line was long. We would have waited for sure though!

Amazing! Walked in and immediately greeted by cashier and other workers. Did not take a long time for the food either. Maybe 10-13 min max. Very clean inside and outside ; bathrooms are very clean as well. My husband and myself and father in law came, spent roughly around 55 bucks. Not overpriced.

Start out by saying the parking love it. A lot of places are great, but sometimes parking can be a deal breaker in returning. The food itself was great definitely love the buttermilk biscuits and even the home fries. I only tried 'The Staple ' this go around which was delicious, but I 'll be back before students return for sure. Customer service is exactly what you 'd expect, and even the atmosphere inside or outside felt like you can slow down and relax.
