About this restaurant

  • Lively
  • Good for groups
  • Great for brunch
Our award-winning Founding Farmers DC flagship restaurant opened in 2008 just three blocks west of the White House on Pennsylvania Avenue. Open 365 days a year, our team is passionate about crafting dishes and drinks from scratch with high-quality ingredients from farmers and suppliers we know and trust.

Join us for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, weekday happy hour, and a la carte weekend brunch.

Majority owned by American family farmers, including the more than 50,000 farmers of the North Dakota Farmers Union, our restaurant is guided by a very simple principal: we see and share everything Through The Eyes Of The Farmer.™ We actively care about our guests, our communities, the planet, and the next generation. This all comes together in our everyday neighborhood restaurant.

    Poor service and average food. We’ve eaten here a few years ago and looking forward to dining again at FF, it was great a few years back. This time not so much- very poor service- our waiter barely paid attention to us and the food was mediocre. Very overrated and would not return which was so disappointing.

    Waited 20 minutes for our table despite having a reservation. Tables are tight for walking and navigating but the menu offered fun and eclectic choices.
