Soujanya Rai (The Spicy Journey)
+5
Farmer's cafe is set in a charming traditional bungalow in the quieter side of Fort Kochi, but also close to the Princess Street. I loved the ambience in here. It was very calming and peaceful.
The food here is just as nice. I ordered fried eggs with toast for breakfast. This came with a nice surprise of fruits. My only regret is that I discovered this place at the end of my stay and couldn't come here for more meals.
The only restaurant to visit!
With only an hour left to eat before jumping in an airport taxi, Farmers Cafe was the only place left on my list.
I shouldn't have left it to the last minute; next time I'm in town it'll be the only place I eat.
A beautiful building with garden courtyard hosts the only restaurant to serve organic free range chicken in town. They also have their own farm, and source from a local network of organic farmers.
While other places around town serve average food at high prices in fancy atmospheres, the Farmers Cafe serves excellent food at average prices in a serene and relaxed setting.
Do not miss this opportunity!
By far the best restaurant we have been to Kerala! We went there twice during our stay in Kochi. Food was great (prawn roll, fried calemare and prawn massala) and staff was super friendly. Nice Gallery too.
This is a must visit, try their fresh juice or even veg thali they are a delight. Very friendly staff and nice ambience. Located in an old house and you fall in love with the place the moment you enter. It’s new but definitely worth a visit.
This has to be one of the best breakfast cafe in the town, let the dilapidated looking building not fool or put you off! Easy to locate next to post office, one steps into their gallery room with few pieces on display. Leading into the open courtyard with wooden seating in the colonnaded walkway around it, on ground and first floor. Long before the food, the ambience really sets you up with nostalgia of Grandma's house back in the countryside. Can't think of a cafe with a well, cobbled flooring and such a layout. Ample natural light and menu items.
Excellent food options suitable to different asks. Tomato basil salad, Farmer's Omlette, masala tea and an extra french toast with honey n butter and the juicy half cut orange was just perfect way to start the day! Gunjan Caur
The coconut rice was subtle and soft and sweet. The fresh fish pasta smooth and tasty. The fried prawns perfectly marinated and the fried squids crispy and fresh. I had delicious, fresh, healthy and great tasting food every time. The staff were super friendly and the place is charming. Overall 5 star..
Farmers cafe is quite easy to miss and may not seem to be very appealing from outside esp if you are new to fort Kochi.
We ended up there due to our good luck since it was getting late and other places were full.
The place has an art gallery where collections of two artists were displayed when we visited and the open area of gallery was quite a welcome change.
The restaurant itself is in a old local house converted to restaurant. Spread over 2 floors the place was simple yet elegantly decorated.
Food choices were bit limited but served the purpose. The preparations were all quite good and sea food was absolutely fresh.
Overall the taste, service and setup was quite delightful.
Best food I ever had . Very pocket friendly place with yummy food , great ambiance , clean place and friendly staff. Loved their tulsi tea, calamari fry , French toast , pumkin soup. Definitely will come back again.
Wow! Take a 300+ year old building, add exceptionally nice people, great coffee and good food, and you create happiness.
The building itself is marvelous. If you are a student of history or architecture, you will appreciate all the aspects of the structure that make it unique.
There are paintings and prints of photographs displayed in the gallery section of the structure, adding charm to the place.
Simplicity in furniture and thoughtful spacing of tables is highly appreciated.
I ordered a coffee and a Farmer’s vegetable scramble. These were perfect. Served up with read bread too. Paid 300 for it—a very reasonable charge for the experience.
Highly recommend visiting and spending some time here.
Tip: Get here early in the morning so you have the place to yourself.
Fresh, flavoursome food served by friendly helpful staff. I ordered the Veg Thali and a vegetable juice. It's the magic kind of food that is both utterly delicious but also leaves you feeling nourished and healthy. I'd suggest planning to stay a while over a meal and linger a while longer to order another drink or even a slice of cake.. enjoy the calm shady courtyard and eclectic art decorating the walls. I only wish I'd tried Farmers Cafe earlier as it's by far the best spot I ate at in Fort Cochin.
They accommodated my vegan diet effortlessly. The chef was very kind and gave me plenty of options. I got the chana masala with steamed vegetables. It was delicious!
The waiter was also very nice and the service was great! It's a very nice and quite atmosphere as well.
I highly recommend this place.
I went a second time and had the Lentils and steamed veg.
Excellent courtyard space with really cool architecture and attached to a cool little art gallery. Best thali we had in India! The waiters are all really nice and they do excellent juices as well. Love this place!
Great spot for dinner! Fish is very well cooked and the hosts are amazing. The building is about 300-400 year old and has a really cool feel. Strongly recommend this place, it’s only recently opened.
Delicious! Every thing we had was so nice and for a reasonable price. Service was great, and the staff welcoming. They have vegan options here for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Beautiful ambience. Very interesting menu. Food is delightful. The staff are friendly and all smiles. Would surely visit again.
