Free Range Cafe

Excellent concept in Hagerstown where fast-food and Sheetz reign supreme. However there's something missing in the execution.

When we walked in the door we were met with an amazing aroma of roasted brussel sprouts. And the mac and cheese is 93% vegetable and doesn't taste too far off from the real thing but the texture is a bit off-putting if you enjoy creamy mac and cheese. It looks like mac and cheese.

The vegetables were cold as was the chicken which were placed on top of steaming hot mac and cheese. We would have preferred everything warm but it didn't indicate on the menu board that it would be cold.

The shredded chicken in our bowls was dry and didn't have any flavor even though it was colored as though seasoning may have been added.

The staff was super nice and answered all of our questions, keeping one of the veggies out of our bowl at our request.

The cold press immunity juice was so tasty. They somehow have that balance between a little bit of sweet and just the right amount of ginger and all the good stuff in behind it.

It cost 34 dollars for 2 bowls and one juice. Because of the nature of the restaurant and the quality they presume they're purchasing the prices are a bit high, so if I have opportunity to go again I will add to the review accordingly. We may have just been there on an off day, who knows? It's definitely worth a try just be prepared.

Very healthy food and smoothies to choose from. Love the fact that it truly is all natural without added sugar. This is a great place to eat. Will do it again when I am in the Hagerstown area. Wish they were open until at least 5pm though....

I had really high hopes for this place and was highly anticipating it opening but unfortunately it has been a bit of a disappointment. Id give it a 4 star for the acai bowls and smoothies but a 2 star for just about everything else I've had on the menu. The chicken wraps have an off "reheated" flavor to them and my last visit there my wrap had to be eaten with a fork since it was completely torn down the side. Also you do get an acai bowl be careful of the granola, I had peices of almond shell in mine last time I had it. Overall I want them to succeed but I am just having a hard time recommending at this point.

Delicious, healthy food.. always feel great after eating here.. wish they were closer to my house so I could stop in more often! :)

Nice atmosphere and friendly, welcoming staff. I got a breakfast wrap....it was very tasty and light on the stomach...it was just cold. I ordered online and picked it up in exactly 15 minutes, but still had to wait a few minutes...therefore I'm assuming it's fresh and hot, but it was still cold. I'm sure they will improve..it's definitely worth a try.

We were really looking forward to a healthy dinner option, but we value our teeth more! The brussel sprouts and wild rice in the Harvest bowl were so rock hard they were not edible. The curry chicken salad had good flavor but the apple slices were brown and all you tasted was an overwhelming lemon flavor. The menu description does not say this dish would have the rice, but it did, rendering this dish inedible too!

First off, this place 100% has the potential to be a 5 star very soon. They just have a lot of things to work through - which they know. So I applaud their honesty with admitting they are still “ironing out the kinks”.
Here is my opinion:

My wife and I both had the build your own wrap. Honestly our wraps were very tasty - they just weren’t $12 tasty. I think especially as my wrap didn't even have any meat, $8-10 would be a much fairer price range.
- There weren’t many kids lunch options which I hope they fix as they flesh out their menu.
- Took >5 mins to get any water cups as they were washing them.

This all being said, the food is fresh and delicious. The staff are very friendly and you can tell they actually enjoy being there which is awesome.

Once they figure out the rate of demand etc, establish menu properly (and hopefully evaluate pricing), this place will be one of our regular go-to spots for sure.

Awesome food, Cool atmosphere, Great kids play area...good coffee!

I’ve been to this place a handful of times now, I’m an açaí bowl lover & this is one the closest to me so that’s one of the reasons why I continue to go back. With that being said, it’s not the best açaí bowls I’ve had.. they over due it with the granola & the smoothie purée is more icy than “smooth” so it ruins the flavor a bit. They’re Avocado toast is really good though! They are a bit pricey but overall I would say they’re worth it for being a “healthy spot” and their portions are fair.

We've been here a few times and it is always wonderful. Staff is friendly and flavors are great. Especially love the bowls, the avocado toast, and the kids options. I appreciate that I can order online and just grab it at the drive thru- super convenient! I CRAVE their oat milk chai- today after a particularly long and stressful day at work I stopped to pick up dinner for the family and forgot to order my drinks; they said it would be a few minutes to heat the chai which was no problem- then they gave it to me on the house for the hassle of waiting. Totally unnecessary, but very sweet and it really just made my day so much better. Thank you!!
