Foodie Friday: Farley's Bar & Grill - Lindsborg, KS
*Update: This restaurant is now closed.*
Who knew that the town of Lindsborg, KS had a main street
let alone a bar & grill. I have lived less than 20 minutes from
this town and yet this was my first time actually going into
Lindsborg and the first time I had ever been to Farley’s Bar and Grill.

As with any small town restaurant on a Saturday night around
7pm you can expect that it will most likely be busy so when I
arrived at this tiny little corner bar with my friends I wasn’t
surprised to find that there was at least a 15-20 minute wait.
.
Eventually we got seated at a table. The service was nice albeit
a little slow, but like I said the restaurant was busy.
.
I ordered the chicken fried chicken (half order) which came
with the choice of one side so I went with mac and cheese.
.
.
I have to admit that I was a little underwhelmed. The chicken
was a little on the dry side and
definitely could have used a lot more seasoning. It tasted
like a plain ole chicken breast and the gravy didn’t add much
flavor to it either. The mac and cheese was also a bit of a
disappointment. It looked amazing and cheesy, however, instead
of cheese all I tasted was alfredo sauce. In fact it tasted identical
to the alfredo sauce on the chicken alfredo (which one of my
friends ordered). I did luck out and get an extra side of mashed
potatoes though because they thought I had ordered them originally
and they were pretty good. Definitely my favorite part of my meal.
.
My friends ordered the chicken alfredo, cheesy bacon potato
soup, and a chicken salad (I think it was the Pablo Picasso) and the grilled cheese.
.
.
The chicken in both the chicken alfredo and the salad were
again on the dry side and I think the chicken alfredo
could have used a lot more sauce.
.
.
I definitely think the favorite out of all the dishes was
the cheesy bacon potato soup. It had a really good creamy
texture and flavor to it and it was perfect for that cold winter night.
Highly recommend it! I would legit go back to eat that soup.
.
.
I of course had to also try some dessert so I ordered the
Panko Brownie and my friend ordered their Crème Brûlée cheesecake.
.
I think he definitely enjoyed the cheesecake since he
became a member of the clean plate club.
.
.
The brownie on the other hand…well…I won’t be ordering that
again. I like the idea of a fried brownie with vanilla ice cream
and whipped cream on top. Like yes please. However, using
panko breadcrumbs to fry the brownie is where the mark
was missed. It made the texture and the flavor wrong and I think
they would have been better off to use a regular fry batter. A for effort though.

Overall Farley's was okay. The service was good and the
people that worked there were very nice. However, the food
could have used a little more love. Not a bad place for
dinner, but I won't go out of my way for it.
