" We are so much more than a farm. We use our farm to help restore lives, create jobs, and ignite hope in the inner-city community of Bonton in South Dallas." (-Daron Babcock)

We are a farm to table restaurant that serves Southern fare that feeds the soul; Chef Amber's menu items rotate often and change seasonally as we partner with our farm teams to bring you the freshest harvested ingredients. We have a bright & inviting dining room and our charming, farm-side patio is the perfect place to host your special events. Let our catering team create a unique memorable experience.

The Market Cafe at Bonton Farms is here to help spread awareness and support our mission: we transform lives by disrupting systems of inequity, laying a foundation where change yields health, wholeness and opportunity as the norms.

    I have read about this organization and finally was able to come for lunch. I brought two cousins from North Carolina, and they just loved it. The food was excellent! And everyone, inside and outside, was extremely friendly.

    First off, let me say, the food was great.  my biggest problem with this place is the customer service. And it’s not what you think. I was hoping for a great dining experience, but it felt very awkward and uncomfortable in the café. Nobody asked us if it was our first time dining, they kind of let us walk in and sit down and didn’t introduce themselves. They immediately started asking what we wanted to eat, and it felt very uncomfortable. I have a two year-old son and the hostess was being very overbearing with him. I understand that he’s a cute kid, but it really bothers me when people pester him. (If you’re a parent you’ll understand). Mind you I thought this place was popular, but we were the only people dining in the café. I also thought they were there for a bigger purpose and they didn’t tell us everything that they had to offer. It kind of felt like they left a huge part of the experience out. Will not be coming back, but the food is great. My advice is to welcome everyone and introduce why you were there as a business, tell your customers all that you have to offer. There were a lot of things that we did not understand or how to navigate based off of where we saw online.

    We were happily surprised at our dining experience today. There is a little cool coffee shop just next to it and that was fun too. I noticed that many who ate at the restaurant also came there when they finished. It was outstanding food and service today and we'll be back!

    I thought it was very expensive and I was surprised considering the location. It seems to be out-priced for the residents in the area and does not invite them to eat the healthier options offered. The amount of food was also disappointing based on the cost...

    Love what Bonton Farms is doing for the community but the food was not good. Greens were tough and not cut up. Chicken was over cooked. Macaroni and cheese was like a kid made it. Pancakes were tough. Not good.
