Fat Beet Farm Kitchen and Bakery — Restaurant in Florida

Slowly crossing things off the list to try here! My first visit, I had the French Dip which was not my favorite at all. The meat was very thick & smokey. The au jus paired with it was very flavorful though. The second thing I tried was their bacon, egg & cheese breakfast biscuit. The biscuits are AMAZING.. thick, moist & buttery. It seems like they do a fried egg.. wish I do wish it would be more of a fluffy scrambled egg. Also tried the jelly with the biscuits which was a different flavor than the norm.. maybe like a blackberry? I then tried just their egg & cheese breakfast biscuit… because the picture on their website shows yellow cheese, however it came with white cheese which I didn’t want on that sandwich so a little disappointed. I’ve grown to love their mac n cheese… simple in flavor, but really cheesy & doesn’t leave you feeling heavy But the best thing I’ve tried hands down so far is their power chicken sandwich. It’s a little pricey for a sandwich but comes with a good amount of meat and yummy honey mustard dressing! At the end of the day, I just love to support the farm and farm fresh food.. that makes it all worth it! It’s such a cute little place with so much more to offer and great outdoor patio space. I just wish they were open Mondays or Tuesdays!

UPDATE 10/9/23: I came back after being gone for a few months and it appears they are making some changes… which I don’t really understand. They moved the water inside which you now have to ask for them to poor you a cup. The utensils are moved inside which is a bit inconvenient. And they no longer have the large selection of misc items to buy, they’ve downsized. They also extended their hours which I thought was a great thing only to realize they close the kitchen a full hour before the closing shift which is confusing and learned the hard way.

Regardless of the changes, the power chicken sandwich keeps me coming back...

Happy Hidden GEM! Jen, the owner, and her staff are truly humble, kind and caring people. Always have a smile. The grounds are impeccable - several acres). Shop in their cafe/bakery/mart or stay and eat. I feel like I’ve been transported back to cafes and family organic farms back home in Humboldt County, CA (Northern California near Oregon). Don’t drive by. Just pull in. You won’t be disappointed. The last 3 weeks since my first visit, I have been trying all their fresh farm to table fare. Beet Goat Power Greens Salad, Power Chicken Sandwich, Reuben, Tuna salad & chicken salads - wow what flavor bombs! Everything is fresh, flavorful and absolutely delicious. You can’t forget about their made from scratch baked goods. Their earl grey shortbread the perfect match with tea or coffee. We were lucky enough to purchase several bottles of Jen’s homemade holiday baileys - unreal! They have a vast hydroponics micro greens garden system onsite (tours available). They incorporate their daily harvest into their recipes and also sell in their mart. I always purchase their made from scratch sourdough and wheat breads, their flower power greens (edible flowers with mixed greens), their micro greens packs, their bursting with flavor tomatoes and their jalapeño and Serrano peppers pack a punch. The mac n’ cheese was a hit at my family’s holiday party along with an array with their delectable baked goods. It is nice to have this in...

I was excited to try this place but left disappointed. The layout is very confusing and I don't like that you need to use your phone to even look at the menu. There's no clear signage when you arrive stating whether you should seat yourself, wait for a hostess, order at the counter and then bring the food to your table etc. I only found out it was the last option by asking another customer. Then I had to figure out myself that I had to view the hot food menu on the website. It's not even displayed where you order which I thought was weird.

I will say, the honey chicken biscuit I ordered was delicious and made quickly. It tasted very fresh and flavorful. However I thought the bakery items were a bit overpriced - $10 for a 4 pack of cookies, $10 for some cut watermelon.

While I understand the high prices are supposed to reflect the product's quality, I assumed I was also paying for an experience, which wasn't the case. From the restaurant you can see the farm area and the way the place is advertised you would assume you could just walk around and explore. But you can't. I tried visiting the barn area that had an open gate with no signage explaining anything and was abruptly stopped by and employee rudely yelling from the restaurant area, telling me I needed to schedule a tour. The whole situation was odd and uncomfortable.

Good food but poor setup and not worth going...
