Farm to Fit — Restaurant in Daytona Beach

I hate to leave a bad review but I feel like I should share just in case anyone else like me goes in there. I have been vegan for 10 years and I am always very nice and understanding when places don’t offer vegan options. I was actually on my way to Kale Cafe, but stopped in with a friend and was curious if they had an option as well. I was very kind and simply asked “do y’all have any vegan options?”, the cashier gave me a look and told me no, so i said “okay no problem! Just wondering” but then the older cook (not the owner) came out of the back and started jumping down my throat. He was very aggressive and started saying things like “we only serve things that have a snout down to the tail” and then redirected me to other places that serve vegan options (which is nice but i didn’t appreciate his tone or how aggressive he was when i was simply asking a question out of curiosity). If you are Vegan or Vegetarian, avoid this place. They dont have vegan options (which is fine) but the issue is they are obviously prejudiced and judgemental towards certain health choices/dietary restrictions. (I have a chronic autoimmune disease, and am vegan for health reasons) This place is discriminatory and you will be treated very rudely if you even go in to simply ask. After getting my food at Kale Cafe, My friend went in to pick up her food. She told them it was extremely rude and their interaction ended in curse words. Very unprofessional.

Multiple of my friends at Driink (down the road) have said only good things about this restaurant, including the owners of Driink and multiple of the bartenders, but i guess not. I’m disappointed.

(Just to note, on google it says “has indoor seating, wifi, and serves VEGAN DISHES” which is not true. This is probably why you have “demanding vegans” coming inside asking about it. I suggest y’all...

I was recommended this place for lunch. I went with a friend and so glad I did.

It’s a nice spot on Beach St that has outdoor seating and provides shade if needed. Inside has a homey feel, tables were set with a barn like feel, and the staff were amazing! Very kind, down to earth, and community focused. The regulars were called by first name, asked about their day, I mean it was something.

The food as you can imagine was A1!! I ordered the Barnhouse Burger and my friend ordered the Monster Mushroom Pizza with the sides of Sweet Potato Salad. 👌🏾 CHEFS KISS!! Portion was solid, the pizza was crunchy(NY’er here lol), and the burger was stacked to perfection.

We were sitting next to the blackboard that held the menu and other specials and as fate would have it, at 👀 level was the “ASK US ABOUT DESSERT”. Threatening us with a good time we asked, a few items were named off but as I squint ever so gently to the desert menu on the counter, I was sold in the tiramisu. Fluffy, moist, and not too sweet.

Farm to Fit for the win and definitely a 10/10...

I've been to restaurants all over the nation and the world and this is my all-time favorite! The food is healthy and fresh and the atmosphere is friendly and laidback. The salads and cauliflower crust pizzas are especially good but everything they serve is amazing-from the salmon bowl to the pho to the chicken jalapheno burger. Farm to Fit is truly a family business-you will see the owners and sometimes their children working here! Brady, the chef, is a genius in the kitchen. Barb manages the restaurant, creating an environment that makes people want to return again and again. My husband and I adore both the food and the owners and try to get here at least once a week unless we are out of town. We don't feel guilty coming here because the food is healthy-the restaurant does not even own a deep fryer. There's outdoor seating with a view of the river, if that floats your boat, plenty of free parking, and the option of strolling down Beach St after you eat to check out the charming local shops and Daytona's recently renovated...
