The Farmhouse Cafe

Had the corned beef hash and it was just what I wanted. Food was excellent and service was perfect. If you are looking for a nice place for breakfast this is the place. Felt like you were at home.

Absolutely amazing hole-in-the-wall mom ‘n pop restaurant. We were referred to this restaurant from a gas station attendant at the town south of Metaline Falls. The waitress was a delight to talk to. Her and the cook ran the whole place. Great place to visit! Very welcoming!

Four of us drove about 40 miles for lunch and left very frustrated.
The young man was extremely inept.
His knowledge was vague.
One person requested a teaspoon of
Chili to check the spice level.
She was told that they don’t do that. She did not ask for a bowl, just a small taste.
Another person asked for non sugar and was told they did not have any.
We waited for over a half hour for our
food.
When the lunch finally arrived, it was very cold and way over salted.
I never give negative reviews, however
The service was so poor, the chili burgers all came minus the onions and cheese
Will not return 😡

Excellent service and food. Hit the spot and will be back when in the area.

Polite staff and filled coffee without asking. Food was good, reasonable portions. 4 stars because all of the patrons were nice and conversational

We took a 230+ mile bike trip over Labor Day Weekend 2017, and came through Metaline Falls on our way to Sandpoint, ID. As it was breakfast time, and we'd scouted restaurants in this area prior to leaving home, we thought this looked like a possibly good place to stop. And we were NOT disappointed. Everything is made from scratch, and the omelet and pancakes were awesome! Was super busy though, as it was Sunday morning, but once the food came out, the wait was worth it. Highly recommend!

Fantastic little breakfast nook in Metaline Falls. Great food and friendly service. Delicious homemade food. The place was really hopping when we at and the three gals running the place did an amazing job. I would highly recommend stopping here.

A local mom and pop place with great food! They offer the basic fare and interesting specials like breakfast fried rice. The staff is friendly and accommodating. It’s so nice to have a place in our small community to have breakfast and lunch.

We've had great breakfasts and lunches at Farmhouse Cafe, but we were recently very disappointed by dinner on Friday, July 31st, 2020. We asked to sit outside, and the waitress automatically assumed take-out and wrapped our food in styrofoam. The cook obviously microwaved our soup in styrofoam, which was melted on the sides and is toxic after heating. We also ordered a dish with sourdough bread, and the cook did not notify us that they were out. She instead gave us a dinner roll that smelled of mold.

EDIT: Talked to the owner, and she respectfully assured that the issues will be fixed.

When ever we are in the area we make sure to stop at The Farmhouse Cafe. The atmosphere is superb, the service can't be beat and the food is down home, delicious and plentiful. We love this cafe for breakfast and/or lunch. Recommend this cafe totally and I would drive an extra 100 miles to enjoy.
