Hubby and I came here on a Saturday afternoon around 4:30pm. We made the reservation online. We enjoyed the atmosphere of the restaurant and its crowd. The service was really fine, not at all as bad as described in some of the other reviews. My hubby mentioned the service was just a bit slower, but to me personally it was truly fine, the waiters showed up when needed and were kind. Hubby had the “honey mule” ($14) and I had the “uptown sangria” ($14) to drink. We shared the “artichoke hearts” ($12) and “truffle fries” ($12), both were very yummy! I just bit the artichokes too early and burned my mouth, so just an FYI to give it some time to cool down first. I really wanted the “country fried mushroom” as my main, but to my bad luck they were out, so I substituted for the “eggplant rollatini” ($18) which was delicious btw! Hubby had the “bistro steak” ($32). He was a bit worried that it wouldn’t be filling, but he ended up feeling satisfied afterwards. He mentioned really having enjoyed the mashed potatoes and the salad on the side of the bistro steak. We ended with sharing the “bread pudding” for dessert, which was just okay, I won’t order it again, next time I’ll stick to the crème brûlée. Overall we really enjoyed dining at Inwood Farm and I have to come back to try that “country fried mushroom” as a vegetarian! We plan on coming for brunch this weekend, so I’ll be updating this review afterwards with more info and pictures. *EDIT* We came for brunch on a Saturday at noon (12:30pm reservation) and the vibe was so much fun! It was almost fully packed and the coffee station had a bit of a line. I had the “matcha affagato” ($9) which was like a cold dessert drink, but it was sooo good and lasted me for the entire brunch. I finally had the “country fried mushroom” ($20) and it was okay taste wise for me. The presentation was beautiful, but it could’ve used a bit more seasoning for my taste. Glad I had it, next brunch I have my sight set on the “bruschetta buratta toast” (will only update photos, no further revision of review after this. Hubby had the “steak & eggs” ($25).

Nyc gem. Great food and bartender went out of their way to make us pina coladas on national pina colada day! We love sitting outside by the park and I’m willing to pay a bit more for the atmosphere as this place certainly is not cheap. All the great stuff being said, our waiter was totally scatterbrained. It felt like this was his first day waiting tables ever, he easily could have sold us three rounds of drinks but we ran out of time. His loss, our sobriety. Also the host did not give us a high chair so dad had to go find one. Our waiter greeted us within 5 minutes of being sat outside in a hot beautiful summer evening. We were eating with our friends 3 year old. When the waiter came the very first time we asked for pina coladas and ice in a plastic cup for the kiddo. 10 minutes later he returned empty handed as if he never saw us before then in that moment he remembered us and said our order out loud and asked if we needed anything else. We kind of blinked at him. The toddler had now been hand fed ice cubes one at a time from all of our drinks. He returned to our table about ten minutes later again empty handed to get our food order. We had to ask him if there were any specials which he did manage to bumble through but without pricing at one point mentioning leftovers (don’t do that). I had to ask him for pricing on the specials which he said all in a row while squinting his eyes and looking up at the sky so we never really knew what cost what. I ordered the pasta which was excellent we all split two watermelon salads - also excellent; and my friends split the special ribs. His fourth visit to our table 38m after we sat he brought a full to the brim ice water for the toddler in a non child proof clear plastic cup w a lid and the pina coladas. If we let the kiddo handle this ice water (not ice) she would have spilled it all over herself. Again. 5 stars I love this place but know: this was a $140 meal and my friends split an entree. As a person in the service industry ownership needs to either hire more or better servers. And train them haha! We will be back!

Very cute neighborhood restaurant. Perfect for a date or nice drink and ambience. Music just right, the ambience so cozy and loving. Outside seating very attractive, specially on a nice weather. Pretty diverse restaurant with a coffee shop, restaurant and bar all in once. After waiting for the Right timing to make it to this restaurant, so long between reading reviews and exploring its website to learn more about it, since I enthusiastically looking for nice local spots, I thought tonight was going to be the day. Unfortunately they seem to be short of staff, service was extremely slow. Me and my friend stop for a glass of wine and maybe a snack to enjoy it on the little outside patio set up, which seems lovely. We waited to be seated when there wasn’t a line nor the restaurant were busy. Once I get the hosts/ server attention, we walked out to the table we picked. Around 10 mins passed for the waiter ( another lady) come around with glass of water and left immediately, trying to catch up with the order of another couple we were dining in, and they complained about being waiting so long for the other to arrived and it arrived incomplete. The couple were very vocal and fussy about the service as well. We kept waiting for over a few minutes more, at this point ( 15 -20 ) mins, no one has come up to take the order of the drinks at least. We choose to leave. We just wanted a glass of wine and we couldn’t get past a glass of water. I’ll give it my benefit of the doubt, and come back once more, hoping for the best.

If you find yourself in Inwood, this is a must-stop eatery. If you are somewhere else in Manhattan on a beautiful day and are looking for something unusual to do, I recommend taking the #1 subway to 215th St and walking four-five minutes to Inwood Park. On the way, you'd see Inwood Farm on the left. Tell them you'll be coming back and go for a walk through the park or a hike into the adjacent views. Breathtaking views of the Hudson River and some light climbing await. We went for an hour+ hike and came back hungry for the delicious lunch we got at the restaurant. The food and the service are excellent. I look forward to doing this again soon! PS: This is the old Indian Road Cafe, renamed and with a new menu (and, I presume, new management).

Hola a todos chicos! Les cuento que este domingo pasado nos fuimos a este maravilloso Restaurante "Inwood Farm", pegado al Rio de Spuyten Duyvil Creek. Ya desde unos metros antes de entrar al establecimientos, se sentia una maravillosa aftmosfera. Tuvimos la fortuna de entrar y optener una mesa muy rapido, eso se puede ser que de una forma - " MUCHA SUERTE". La comida fue muy rica, todo en su punto de cocción, pero lamentablemente los dos cafes que pedimos llegaron tibios y mi cafe con leche tenia mas espuma que liquido (eso podrian arreglarlo seguramente). Ahora hablemos de la atención de los mozos, me gusto que siempre den una sonrisa a la hora de atender hacia los clientes, eso es un punto muy fudamental para un Restaurante, es la cara principal del establecimiento. También el restaurante por las noches es un lugar para escuchar musica en vivo, amigos. Trato de ser lo más junto con mis reseñas, dar un punto claro y objetivo. Vengan para conocer este hermoso lugar, tiene unas formidables vista del Inwood Hill Park y del Henry Hudson Bridge. Hi all guys! I tell you that this past Sunday we went to this wonderful restaurant "Inwood Farm", next to the Spuyten Duyvil Creek River. From a few meters before entering the establishments, a wonderful atmosphere was felt. We were lucky to enter and get a table very quickly, that may be in a way - "VERY LUCKY". The food was very tasty, everything just cooked, but unfortunately the two coffees we ordered arrived lukewarm and my latte had more foam than liquid (they could surely fix that). Now let's talk about the attention of the waiters, I liked that they always give a smile when serving customers, that is a very fundamental point for a restaurant, it is the main face of the establishment. Also the restaurant at night is a place to listen to live music, friends. I try to be the most together with my reviews, to give a clear and objective point. Come to see this beautiful place, it has a formidable view of Inwood Hill Park and the Henry Hudson Bridge.

Ordered a burger, a salad, coffee, and raspberry tea. Everything was good except that I ordered my burger cooked to medium, and it was almost raw. You can see it in the video. That has never happened to me before and I eat out a lot lol. I didn’t realize it until i was halfway through the burger, so i guess it’s good quality 😓
