Farmer Boys

We were driving from Provo, UT to Paso Robles, CA and stopped at this Farmer Boys for lunch. This was the first time we’d been at one of these and the food was great! I had the Cobb Salad which was excellent.

I really like this restaurant, they have a good selection of healthy meals. Whenever I stop by to pick up something quick it’s always top quality food and my orders have always been 100% correct. I have tried about 5 different meals
1. The Natural Avocado Bacon Cheeseburger.
2.The French Toast Combo
3.The Breakfast Burrito with Sausage
4. The Farmers Chopped Cobb Salad
5. CA BLT
You can’t go wrong with anything from farmer boys. I always try to get something with Bacon, Avocado and egg when I’m here because they are a great combo :)
They have great seating indoors, the atmosphere is warm and inviting. They have a lot to look at on the walls, a fun thing to do when your waiting for your food.

My first visit to a Farmer Boys, and the Manager took my order, everyone was smiling and friendly, and as a veteran, I was happy to see a lot of active duty military enjoying the food with a military discount to boot!
Had the Southwest Chicken Salad and it’s quite large AND tasty. I would recommend this place to anyone!

Burnt tasting and expensive for small burgers. I’ve had better burgers at a gas station. Normally they are pretty good but not this time. Looks like it’s back to 5 Guys.

In my opinion, it’s hard to go wrong with any meal from Farmer Boys. I’ve been eating at this location off and on for the past eight years and yesterday’s salad finally made me write a review. The salads are huge! I couldn’t even finish it. I had the Chicken BBQ Ranch Salad and it was delicious. Farmer Boy salads are in a class of their own when it comes to fast food/​fast-​casual salads. With summer amongst us, I will be stopping in to these more often and as with all fast food, make sure to drink your water because the sodium contents are insane!
There burgers are very tasty too and the amount of food offerings including their breakfasts are nearly unmatched, maybe only Jack-​In-​The-​Box could come close but the quality difference is measurable.

Food here always tastes better than any location I’ve been to, in Las Vegas and California. I always get the same thing and every time I come to this location it’s always perfect. They sure have my business and definitely beat out the crappy location on Charleston. The service is always great here, the girls are always friendly and I make sure if the girl Cindy is there she takes my order. She always knows what I want before I even have to say anything. She’s so friendly and definitely knows how to please a customer. Good job Craig and Lamb, you sure know how to keep good customers coming back hungry for more!

Well here’s the deal, I have been going to Farmer Boys going 15 to 20 years. To say this really disappoints me. I am not satisfied by the turn around in the quality of the food.
You know when you go out of your way to visit a place (one of my favorites I might add), and the food is a disappointment, it bugs me.
My favorite items to order are the Onion Rings and the Fried Zucchini. Some may know that I spent over 20 years in the food industry, so I know a lot of the little tricks they use to save money.
When you try to maintain your food costs, over keeping up your food standards then it may be time to rethink things about this Farmer boys.
The onion rings were dropped back in the fryer to cook a second time, how can you tell well, the color is not the light golden brown you expect when you pull it out of the fryer. My wifes rings were dark brown, extremely hard for her to eat. My zucchini was not up to parr either they were not the crisp planks of sections of a whole zucchini we are used to. Like they had been sitting under the heat lamp or a bit.
Now the best thing about having the above two mentioned itwms waas thwir ranch dressing, nice and thick and creamy. Not this time… saving money costs to make the ranch go farther, dilute it with milk, make it runny so it doesn’t stick to the food and you get more out of it.
Gonna go to our old one on the south end of town to see if they maintained their standards. If not Adiós Farmer Boys.
Service and cleanliness remain high in ranking that’s why the 2 stars.
Totally Bummed Out Consumer.

I haven’t had farmer boys since I lived in California. That’s 6 years ago. Had it just now. Wow! It was so good. The food actually looks like the picture and tasted amazing. Will definitely come back again. Not 6 years from now. Place is clean, people were cool nice.

I know this location has a ton of mixed reviews but I honestly have never had a problem here. I work down the street on the AFB and I put in large to go orders. The staff has always been very friendly to me which I appreciate. I have been coming here over a year and non of my orders have ever been wrong and the temperature of the food is perfect as well. Bacon cheese burgers with guacamole is my go to lunch item with a side of zucchini. And let me tell you those zucchini sticks are huge.
The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because I feel the prices are just a little steep.

By far my favorite restaurant in the area! The menu is pretty big and they serve breakfast all day. The tough part is that I like their omletts and breakfast burritos equally so it is hard to choose but either one is more than enough for the average person. The people who work there are very friendly and the food comes out very quickly even when it’s busy. The dishes are pretty big and are reasonably priced (they also have a military discount). My only complaint would be that this place is in a strange location… if you weren’t looking for it, it is unlikely that you would just see it from the road and stop in.

This is the worst location I’ve been to. I’ve been to many locations in California and Nevada and never been treated the way this location has treated me. They would not accommodate any special requests made to my order. And extras are charged at a higher rate than any other store I’ve been to. Do yourself a favor and go to the Las Vegas Blvd and civic center location over this one, it’s only a couple of miles away.

The veggie burger was meh. The fries were a mix of super hot and freezing cold fries. Not impressed. We won’t be back.

Very fresh, not a huge fan of the fries but the zucchini… Yummmmmmmmmmmm
I rarely eat hamburgers but this place has me craving them more often.

Extreme bacon boy — bomb!
House chili bowl — Luke warm/​cold. (Cheddar cheese wasn’t even melted)
Zucchini sticks — bomb!
The lady at the register, couldn’t care much about her customers.
I would try this place again at another location but request the chili to be piping hot.

I’ve passed by several of these franchises, and always thought about stopping, but never did. So we decided to go and check this place out. The staff was really nice, and patient with us. So we decided on a double combo, and 1 burger on the side. (the burger on the side was for me) I don’t know the name of the burger, but it had a double patty. They have a burger, fry and soda for $ 5.99 The bun was so soft, and they put old fashion Thousand Island dressing on it! O’lord! this burger was amazing Come to find out, they serve breakfast all day. It looked pretty good too. We will be going back real soon.

Went on Wednesday 10−7−15 around 5:15 PM at the drive-​thru. This location is kinda hidden behind the taco bell on Craig although technically it’s on Lamb.
I’ve been hooked on their salads lately. Well, actually, mostly just their ranch dressing but I can’t just drink ranch dressing because I’m an adult. So I smother things in it and since it’s salad I tell myself I’m eating healthy.
Anyways…moving on… they have some great new salads. My current favorite there is the southwest chicken salad ($ 8.96 after tax). The lettuce is always cold and fresh, and the black beans, chicken, avocado, cheese, and corn are like a fiesta in my mouth. I’m in love with this salad right now.
The drive-​thru here is relatively quick and it’s on my way home so it’s really convenient to pick up dinner here. I’ve maybe eaten 5 or 6 times here and it’s good food.
*UPDATE*
I took off a star because the last three times I’ve been here there has been a problem.
−2÷16÷16− Went through the drive thru at 5:30 and asked for three containers of ranch and received none.
−2÷20÷16 Went through the drive-​thru at 5:30 PM and was charged $ 17.93 instead of $ 12.51. Manager had to correct it and refund my card.
−3÷8÷16 Went through the drive thru at 6pm and ordered a southwest chicken salad. The avocado they put on there looked like they dug it out of a dumpster. It was almost black. I can’t believe they served that to me!!! Gross!!!
Dear manager or Farmer Boys on Lamb & Craig… you might wanna take a look at your weekday evening shift workers cuz’ they are messin’ up a LOT.

This place just gets better with every visit!
I love the turkey sandwiches and the salads are huge and fantastic.
We have had GREAT service even when they are super busy.
A little pricey for fast food but even my cheap ass cant argue with quality.
The only critcism I have is that their onion rings are super bland. They need a better batter but no other complaints from me! This is my new go to place for a great burger, sandwich or salad!

When i am on this side of town for class this is usually my go to spot. They offer all the same fresh farmer boy goodness as all the other spots + they offer a student discount & 20% off your order of 10 $ or more with a Unilocal check in.

My last dinner outing here was not up to snuff. The trouble began with a rather unfriendly cashier telling me that the restaurant was totally out of Clam Chowder after I ordered same as part of a Fish Dinner, and ended with one of the hamburger patties on a Farmer’s Burger arriving burnt well beyond regular charbroiling. Fries were just okay. But O-​Rings were real big and thick, such that only a few would do. And, a simple salad was very good, with fresh little cubes of tomato, Iceberg Lettuce, and a little cabbage.
The other elements of the Farmer’s Burger – bacon, smashed avocado, cheese, pickles, tomato, and lettuce – were fine, but the scorched patty detracted greatly from the overall dining experience. Diane enjoyed her 4 pieces of wild-​caught Alaskan Pollock.
Down a rung after this flawed expedition.

After coming here a few more times, I had to change up my former (2 sentence) review. Lol
Being a fast food chain, I’ll make this a fast review.
Farmer Boys is pretty much a high end Carl’s Jr. Food freshly made and served straight to your table by number so no standing around waiting and what not. Always fully staffed to ensure food is made fresh and steadfast. Prices are a bit higher than CJ’s but personally think its only because of the fact there’s only so many FB’s in the city.
If you’re a fan of Zucchini fries, the ones here will not disappoint you. Even though frying them defeats the concept of being healthy Lol. I guess I can say the same thing about their Chicken Barbecue Ranch Salad. Burger boys come hungry, these suckers are cooked to perfection. Believe it or not, only real men know the taste of real burgers.
Something to look forward to is the manager actually coming around from the back and helping out with wiping down tables and ensuring meals met customers requirement.
Quality of freshness has yet failed to impress me. I’m just missing out on trying their breakfast menu out… cool Thunderbird painting on ceiling though;)
