Farmer's Cow Calfe & Creamery - Berlin, Connecticut

Erica Bodden

First time trying Farmer’s Cow. We had the Bacon Chicken sandwich and the Pig and Fig. My friend, who is the least picky person, was disappointed with both sandwiches and the prices. I liked the chicken sandwich, but the Pig and Fig was not worth the money. The ham looked liked 2 slices of regular deli meat and any flavor it might have was overpowered by the bread and fig preserves.

Depending on your perspective you might expect some kind of side included in the price, but there isn’t any. Drinks are overpriced. It was $2.49 for a small lemonade. You get enough, but still seems overpriced.

Disappointing that they have a tip screen. This place is set up like a fast food restaurant (former Arby’s) and I didn’t see anyone doing any type of service that warranted a tip. I didn’t see anyone come out from behind the counter. We tipped because we thought maybe they would bring our food to us or something, but no. They just call out your name. It felt like a rip off, especially since the tip screens suggests up to a 25% tip!

We liked that there wasn’t any loud music.
There was ample seating. The bathrooms were freezing.

Rewards program seems generous, but I don’t know enough yet.

I would come back, but maybe for just a sandwich and not the Pig and Fig.

I really enjoyed my chicken sandwich, it was very fresh with quality ingredients and I felt worth the money. The restaurant was very clean too, and the decor was cute with the cow pics. On the way out I tried the capacino chip ice cream. It was great, very creamy and had the right amount of chips. If I am being picky I would say I would prefer no country music but do not normally stay to eat.

Young lady taking my order very sweet, friendly, and knowledgeable.
I thanked the other employee for my sandwich. She literally did not engage and just got right back into employee gossip. Most places will say have a nice day! Hope to see ya back soon! I did not tip when paying for my food? Sorry but I’ll tip you at a restaurant not for making a sandwich you already get an hourly wage to do.
I got the pig fig. Okay. 11 bucks I was expecting something amazing. Maybe I didn’t see this ordering it but also didn’t know it was served HOT. Place seems nice and clean. Wouldn’t come back.
My three stars are for the young lady that took my order.

Meh… I wanted to like this place, but it’s a little over priced for what you get. The food is decent, but again, $10 for a tiny sandwich left me a little underwhelmed. I’d rather them charge a little more and at least give a bag of chips or similar.

The first time we went, it was wonderful. We had eaten in. The second time was taken out at the window. Ordered the big grill cheese that came with tomato soup ,got home, it was broccoli, yuk with grilled cheese. Ordered the Cobb salad, and the box was half full,much much smaller than the one the week before. I also asked for extra dressing, nope, just the one. The food is good, but check your order before driving away.

Staff was very attentive. Food is delicious. However, I think in order for them to be more competitive with their ice cream and the other businesses in town, they should consider staying open until 9pm for ice cream similar to the others. I would also love to see more flavors if ice cream. The prices are a little high but the food was delicious that we had.

I hadn't tried this place before today and I have to say I'm rather disappointed.. The farm bird sandwich consists of a piece of grilled chicken, avocado, pesto, spinach, and tomato on a ciabatta. The chicken was very dry, had zero seasoning on it, and the pesto was bland. $11 got me a dry, flavorless sandwich that looked much larger in the picture on the menu. 10/10 will go somewhere else next time.

This is an ice cream shop, new to Berlin. There are lots of great flavor options. They also offer some wraps, including a unique Spinach, Strawberry, and Chicken. It sounds odd, but I’m told that it is of decent size and very tasty. There are tables to sit at inside.
