Reviews Summary
The Farm in Al Barari is widely praised for its stunning natural ambiance, offering a peaceful escape with lush greenery and serene lakes. Diners rave about the fresh, flavorful food and the beautiful setting, making it ideal for photos and relaxation. While some find the service a bit slow and prices on the higher side, the overall experience is considered worth it for the unique, tranquil atmosphere.
"So we went to The Farm restaurant in Al Barari few days ago and honestly it was one of the most peaceful and beautiful places i ever visited in dubai. The whole vibe is like you’re in some tropical garden away from the city noise. Green trees, water, bridges everything looks so calming. I went for breakfast and the food was really good, specially the avocado toast and coffee was just perfect. Service was slow little bit maybe because it was crowded but staff was still polite and helpful.
The best part is how nature surrounds you everywhere, birds sounds and that small lake view makes it feel like a mini vacation. It’s also very nice for pictures and family time or even just chill alone. Price little high but i think it’s worth it for the experience.
Only thing i didn’t like is parking can be bit confusing at first but once you reach inside, you forget that. Overall i really loved the place, perfect for weekends or to take guests who want to see a different peaceful side of dubai. Definitely will go again for lunch next time."

"Pleasant and quiet place. Lots of greenery and a good arrangement of tables both outside and inside. Due to the water environment and a lot of plants in the environment, there are a little more insects. They solve that problem quite solidly. Air-conditioned areas even outside. Hrsna is versatile, very tasty, plentiful and not too expensive. The toilets are clean and comfortable. The staff at the reception as well as at the service are excellent. A really pleasant place to spend a relaxed time."

"Food is fine, I can say 4 star.
Ambiance is 5 star, beautiful and peaceful. The staff is not really pleasant so I can say 3 star on service.
Over all great place with beautiful views and nature"
