Influenced by its location in the elegant Normandy Farm Hotel, The Farmer's Daughter is the culinary cornerstone of this historic property & offers an unforgettable dining experience with an exceptional menu of Chef Mtele "Abu" Abubakar`s "Modern Farm Cooking". At The Farmer's Daughter, heirloom and locally sourced ingredients are brought to life on the plate in the form of pure flavors and innovative dishes inspired by the seasons and harvests of our surrounding region. We aspire to give our guests a sense of personal connection to the farmers, brewers, cheese mongers, distillers, winemakers and charcuterie craftsmen who collectively help create an exceptional dining experience. Our expansive bar and fireside lounge follows a "fresh only" approach, creating all of the mixers and infusions in-house from local fruits and vegetables for an extensive list of creative cocktails.

    Pinot Grigio at bar was flat. Scallop risotto not good…. Disappointed as past visits to this restaurant had been memorable.

    It’s a great restaurant with a good menu option. My wife and I got married at Normandy farms and we eat here every year. There are unique options in the menu every season. Recently we shared a tomahawk steak. It was one of the best I’ve ever eaten!

    We are so happy that you enjoyed the tomahawk and hope that you will come join us again!

    had a wonderful mushroom sandwich- very tasty. my companion had the crab cake sandwich and said it was very good. our waiter was Andrew- who was great and was very helpful picking put what to eat. lots of good choices snd specials. It was a little noisy because they had some big groups eating - but it was still a great lunch.
    The Farmer's DaughterResponded on November 18, 2024
    Thank you for your kind words! We're thrilled you enjoyed your meal and that Andrew took great care of you. We appreciate your understanding about the noise and are glad you still had a great lunch. Hope to see you again soon!

    We were disappointed with the charcuterie board, no one bothered to tell us the different cheeses just dropped it on our table and left, very underwhelming...our dinner was the filet mignon which was cooked right but the side potato was VERY DRY, we couldn't eat it and we did tell our server, which they did offer a different side...the noise level was very high ended up yelling to each just to hear each other, really, people do not know how to use an inside voice...we normally love this restaurant with eating there over the past 6 years, just not the same...
