farmerbrown is about supporting local and African-American farmers, using organic, biodynamic, and/or sustainably raised foods, and beverages whenever possible. Our focus is Southern food, a gift that is often mis-represented. We love our food and want you to love it, too.

Chef-owner Jay Foster (formerly of Emmy's Spaghetti Shack and BlueJay Cafe) is the creative force behind farmerbrown's unique take on soul food. Partner, Deanna Sison, a former cooking show producer, completes the team, bringing with her years of experience in the hospitality industry and a passion for food. Our philosophy revolves around providing the freshest possible organic ingredients for their wholesome southern American classics, presented lovingly to their local communities.

This marriage of farm fresh southern cuisine with local Bay Area ingredients in a down home soulful atmosphere gives farmerbrown its unique vibe. From the entrees to the cocktails to the interior design, everything is hand-made!

Well, to be honest, they have been sliding downward in both food quality and service….No lie, the last 8 times I have been there there has been a problem with food…From everything to missing part of the order to waiting 45 minutes for a cold piece of pie when I was almost the only person in the place….The bartender even joked that he felt bad for me because it kept happening….But last night was the last straw….I ordered the Purple Potato Soup, and after about 20 minutes it came out cold and about half full, so I asked if they could heat it up…After ten minutes more it came back out with the bowl almost full, but all watered down, like they had put a cup of boiling water in it….It had been thick! WTF?! I used to come here every week and bring friends, now I wouldn’t be caught dead eating that crap!

OK…I had been coming here almost every week since they first opened and I have to say that the food and service are pretty uneven…One time I went in and order the roasted beet salad, and it was perfect…Fresh little roasted beets, that were so sweet they tasted like candy, so good in fact that I came back the next night to have it again…And it was sliced canned beets!! Oh the horror! I was pretty disappointed, but all-in-all it was still a nice salad, so I wasn’t going to freak out over it, but sometimes it is kinda like that…A bit hit or miss, but still pretty good….As far as the service, they are starting to recognize me (I sit at the bar), so it is getting better, but other times I find myself trying frantically to get someones attention, only to have them come over to tell me they are not the bartender…and it’s not even busy!…But I like the place and I still stop by on the way home occasionally, just not as often anymore…I just don’t know what I will get.
