The evening before the Peachtree Road Race we decided to grab some grub close to our hotel. We found a restaurant within walking distance. They had a wait plus the vibe was just off. I told HB that I didn’t want to eat there. Now, both of us are HANGRY because we hadn’t eaten for real all day, but we decided to leave anyway.
We ended up passing a Farm Burger, and I remembered we had one back in Birmingham. I heard great things about it so we thought we’d give it a try. I’m SO GLAD we did! Our first experience with Farm Burger – Buckhead did not disappoint, and service was awesome! From the moment we were greeted walking in to the bartender/server inviting us to dine at the high bar to have a more personal experience, we felt welcome.
Farm Burger serves grass-fed, locally sourced burgers with high quality, fresh ingredients and seasonal toppings grown by local farmers! All beef is 100% grass-fed, dry-aged, and ground fresh. No bad stuff. And trust me…you can tell the difference!
The Farm Burger menu varies at each location. Options may include:
- Daily Specials
- Snacks
- Blackboard Burgers
- Built-It-Burgers
- Farm Salads
- Hot Dogs
- Fries
- Lil Farmers
- Shakes, Floats, Drinks
- And more…

WHAT WE ORDERED
I had the NO. 1 Blackboard Burger. Aged Vermont white cheddar, caramelized onions, Farm Burger sauce, and local bacon.
SEASONAL SELECTION (Buckhead) – PEACH BURGER
Grass-fed beef, local peach compote, mixed greens, feta cheese. HB decided to add a fried farm egg. DELISH!!!
FARM BURGER FRIES
These fries were highly recommended by our server and should have come with a warning! They were YUMTASTIC! Farm Burger fries are made with spicy garlic, herbs, and parmesan! So good you will want to order some for later.
BUFFALO CHICKEN WINGS (served with buttermilk ranch)
The Buckhead location had Buffalo Chicken Wings when we visited. They were pretty good, just wish they would have fried them a little harder. The sauce was a combo of sweet and spicy.
Keep in mind, the menu varies from location to location. I also wish I would have tried the Farm Burger Deviled Eggs and Slow-Cooked Local Greens on this day, because they both seemed to be popular menu items and looked great too!
CHOCOLATE MILKSHAKE
I don’t know where this shake came from but it tastes like it was grass-fed with LOVE! lol! It’s so good, y’all! I want to try the Salt and Caramel milkshake when they offer it again.

Craft beer lovers, make sure you check out the local brew selections! We tried a summery, watermelon ale selection, but I can’t think of the name of it. It wasn’t too hoppy (which was a plus for me) and very refreshing!
Our dining experience was amazing! I can’t wait to visit our Farm Burger here in Birmingham. Find a location near you here!
