Melissa D'costa dropped for an evening snack at The Farm, and came back with mixed feelings about the place
Located at Laxmi Plaza amid the bustling Andheri (W), the Farm is a cosy 18-seater cafu00e9 with a loft above.u00a0 In addition to the regular fare including Latte, Cappuccino and sandwiches that's synonymous with any coffee house, you can also drop in here for an early breakfast (served between 9.30 am to 11 am) or enjoy a variety of salads and pastas for lunch, or retire for the day with a tall glass of fresh fruit juice and starters.
Food: While vegetarians have many options to choose from, non-vegetarians will have to make do with only two choices the Baked Omelette Sandwich and the Egg Mayonnaise and Basil Sandwich. We initially decided to try the latter, but on the staff's recommendation, we settled for a Hummus Salad and Sandwich (Rs 135) along with a Classic Greek Salad (Rs 105), both dishes were strictly okay. Surprisingly, the juice (freshly squeezed Watermelon Juice) was as expensive as the rich Cold Coffee with Vanilla Ice-cream both priced at Rs 85!
Ambience: Even though we visited the place on a weekend (Saturday evening), we were surprised to find the place was empty. It's a good option if you are looking to grab a quick bite while you catch up with friends over breakfast or lunch. The only catch is that you will have to make do with the limited options available on the menu.
What's in the name? "I want customers to associate The Farm with fresh products and healthy living, since that's the concept I want to promote through my cafe. We'll soon introduce healthy, organic meals," says Meghna Raj, owner of The Farm.
Service: The staff is helpful and attentive, and the service is swift.
At: The Farm, 50, Laxmi Plaza, Laxmi Industrial Estate, New Link Road, Andheri (W).
