Campesino Café offers incredible farm-to-table dishes, with ingredients sourced directly from their on-site farm. The menu features seasonal produce, ensuring fresh and healthy options. Popular items include Pan Fried Tamales and Roasted Kogigu Squash and Apple, which are flavorful, though some dishes can be on the dry side. The outdoor dining space is lovely, creating a relaxing atmosphere, perfect for breakfast or lunch. The friendly staff and airy ambiance make it a great place for a healthy, chill meal experience. Recently, customers have raved about the sourdough pizzas, praising the perfectly chewy crust with just the right tang and fresh toppings. Drinks like espresso and iced cortados are also highly recommended, with many visitors enjoying the beautiful farm setting filled with flowers. The rustic atmosphere and welcoming service add to its charm, making it a treasured spot in the community.
Guests also highlight the quality and freshness of the food, with some calling it their favorite place of all time. The outdoor space is especially appreciated, with barefoot children enjoying the veggies and the salads, such as the Caesar, receiving high praise for their big portions. Early visitors often find the focaccia sandwiches worth getting two of before they sell out. The farm-to-table experience extends to special events like the Farm Dinner at Ecology Center, where dishes like the Farm Tomato & Burrata Salad with toasted almonds and Ceviche Tostadas with Ahi are enjoyed, along with house-made Cavatelli al’dente that transports diners to Italy, all paired with estate wines. Desserts like the Farm Fruit Crumble complete the meal beautifully. The staff and chefs are highly appreciated for their efforts, and many look forward to returning, especially for the Community Table on Saturdays.
