La Farm Bakery - Bakery and Cake Shop in Cary - 4248 NW Cary Pkwy, USA

I love La Farm! Been a customer for about a decade now. Love the brioche Pullman and challah. Also love the tarts, garlic spread, almond pastry, and cheese pastry. Sadly the Pullman has gone up in price significantly each year. Recently started purchasing the garlic yeast rolls which were AMAZING. However, got them for Xmas dinner, and they were nearly inedible. Not sure what happened but still love La Farm. Can't speak much for the cafe. Only ate there once and wasn't super impressed with the French onion soup I had.

First time going, but heard great things about it. Breakfast is decent. Very fresh and tastes good, but nothing remarkable, got the French toast and the deluxe breakfast sandwich. Both baked items we had were very very good. Highly recommend the white chocolate baguettes. Espresso drinks were 2/5. Not the worst I’ve had, but below average for sure. Ambiance is so cute, was hoping this would be a coffee and pastry spot to add to our weekly rotation; however, we will only be going for the pastries to go now. Despite the average breakfast and below average coffee, they earn a 4 star for me since they are a bakery first and foremost, which they really excel in.

Been coming here for years and the food, coffee, pastries, bread, & everything else is delicious. We got the French Toast, Croque Madame, & Spinach & Feta Quiche. It was Sunday and super busy. The service at the register was great! Got the orders down right and repeated to make sure they understood. When we got our food everything looked great but I did find a hair in my quiche. Brought it up to the counter and they were professional and took care of replacing it and comping the dish l. They even gave us a half dozen macaroons! (THANK YOU 🙏🏽) The ambiance is great at the bakery, but I’d like to see a little more decor in the seating area. If you haven’t been, this place is a Cary staple. It’s worth the trip.

Tons of good food and coffee here, there's a reason they're mentioned in the Lonely Planet for the entire East Coast. Peak times are weekends at breakfast and lunch, especially Sundays. I highly recommend avoiding these times and coming later in the afternoon, or even for dinner. Dinnertime is my favorite, it's pretty chill. The drawback is that many of the bread items are sold out at this time, but the benefit is a more relaxed environment. Sunday has the best selection of items; my current favorite is Eggs Florentine (only available on Sunday). Breakfast sandwiches are available all day any day and are also great.

La Farm is a fantastic spot for breakfast, with friendly staff and a delicious menu. For a hearty and satisfying start to your day, the croque monsieur is a must-try. This classic French sandwich is made with ham, Gruyère cheese, and a béchamel sauce, sandwiched between two slices of La Farm's freshly baked bread. It's then grilled to perfection until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Pair your croque monsieur with a cup of coffee or tea, and you're set for a delicious and satisfying breakfast.

I like La farm a lot. Their food materials seem fresh, and the bakery is fresh too. When you step into the shop, you can definitely smell it. Wonderful coffee too.

Had a weekday brunch at La Farm with my partner. We both had a pumpkin beignet and the Croque Madame along with a latte from their coffee bar, choosing to eat at the cafe. The pumpkin beignet was tasty but a little dense at room temperature. I would recommend they be warmed up for texture purposes, but the flavors were delicious. There was just enough pumpkin and spice flavors coupled with the sweet from the coating of granulated sugar on the outside. The lattes were well made, fresh, and delicious. It's obvious they use quality coffee for their espresso. They offered all dairy alternatives (oat, almond, and soy) as well as the standard dairy options. The real star of the show, though, was the sandwich. They were perfectly salty and rich with the most delicious crunch along the edge from the crusty La Farm sourdough bread that was used. The melted gruyere, sunny side up egg, and ham married together with the perfect density and crunch of the bread to create bite after bite of deliciousness that transported me to the sidewalk cafes of Paris. The general manager was attentive and kind, as was the rest of the staff. It is obvious this local chain (they have a few locations around the triangle area) prioritizes their staff and trains them well, which is just as important as the quality of the ingredients and preparation. What a true joy it was to eat here on a short overnight trip to the area to visit friends. We will definitely be back any time we are in the area!

Was so excited to find this place and hoping to make it a regular stop, but we were pretty disappointed. The prices are really reasonable, but my croque monsieur was loaded with cheese and otherwise pretty dry. It’s almost like the Bechamel sauce (or anything similar) was totally missing? The cheese on top was grilled but the cheese on the inside was still cool. The chef salad was decent but again, right on the edge of great. My biggest issue was with the dining room. Every single table was dirty and guests were having problems finding a place to sit that was clean enough despite at least two employees standing in the kitchen talking about Jeep culture and their trips to the mountains. It seemed like two or three of the staff were doing the work for everyone and the restaurant suffered for it. Really unfortunate first impression.
