We're big fans of a Farmers Gastropub in downtown Springfield (right next to our favorite movie theater!). Their concept is all about sustainability and supporting local farmers. Also, their food is amazing. I'm obsessed with the mushy peas. The atmosphere is cozy and warm. Here are a few snapshots from lunch today!
If you find yourself in Springfield, try it. You'll like it—just don't forget the mushy peas. xoxo. Elsie + Emma

as a local farmer, this is awesome to see!
🙂
I’ve been wanting to go to Farmer’s Gastropub for ages – the problem is trying to convince my friends that they should try someplace new! (we’re big fans of Aviary and Springfield Brewing Co.)
I made a special trip to this place on a my way to New Orleans from Omaha to visit my in-laws…..and they had the nerve to close their kitchen at noon because it was Sunday! It has made me permanently biased :[ I was really excited to go there and didn’t eat all day before driving the 6 hours to get there….I was so disappointed I won’t go back, and neither will my friends in Springfield who came to meet us for lunch.
This looks lovely…

This place looks awesome! 🙂

Looks delicious 🙂 We have a similar place in Little Rock called The Root Cafe. They have a map on the wall with pins showing where all in Arkansas all their food comes from. My fiancé wants their chocolate-chili brownies instead of a traditional groom’s cake. Sooo good!
oooh this looks like a place i’d LOVE!
I’m from England, and lived in the USA for a while in 2006. I found mushy peas in the International Food aisle at Walmart! In a fit of homesickness I made Shepherd’s Pie for my American host, with mushy peas. She wouldn’t try them, she said they looked gross! It’s good to see English cuisine being championed here! Nice pictures girls 🙂
What kind of camera and lens did you used to take this pictures? Thank you!
Looks awesome there! Thanks for the recommendation! Love the photos!
Hi guys! My glasses are fakies from American Eagle! :))
elsie, you look gorgeous in the last photo!! xx
Where are Elsie’s glasses from?!
Looks lovely, prices are fantastic too, $11 bangers and mash would be £11 in a place like that in England! Take it from me, I frequently pay it here!
Yum, looks good, especially those chips, wish I was close enough to pop in!
Love the look of that gastropub!

2. That last picture is so gorgeous. Sweet baby Jesus!
I recently went to Rooster in STL that has the same feel as this place. They also have amazing locally supported food. Next time your in town, you need to check it out.

I wish there were cook kicks like this in my area. I definitely will try Farmers Gastropub if I ever visit-because that coffee and fries look delicious!
These photos are gorgeous, and those fries look YUM!
Love,

So wish I lived round the corner but alas I’m in the UK x
Sounds a lot like Falling Sky Brewing (http://fallingskybrewing.com/). If you ever make it to Eugene, I think you’d like it. 🙂
i would love to be able to check out this place if i’m ever in the area! it looks right up my alley. thanks for sharing 🙂
We have a lovely gastropub in downtown Grand Rapids, Michigan called The Greenwell of you ever find yourself here!
Looks like such a cozy place to huddle into for a drink and delicious meal! Totally random sidenote: Elsie, I LOVE your hair. I have naturally dark hair and have been wanting to punch it up with some fun highlights…do you have any details on your current color?!
PS–made the glitter dish last night! It’s fantastic and such a fun accent to our bedroom!
nice spot!

looks delish! Wish we had one in Jamaica…nice pictures too.
The closest thing we have to this in Jamaica would be a few English Pubs. I love that kind of food and can only imagine how nice it must be in that coooold weather!
Just like the food we get in pubs here in the UK. Yum yum yum.

Leek and potato soup AND a Welsh style leek flan!
Happy St David’s Day!
I love local places like this! I think every community should have one. What better way to sample local produce and enjoy a good fresh meal? Hamilton has one, Earth to Table Bread Bar and it is definitely my favorite restaurant in the city.
you both look lovely! i love the leopard glasses 😀 i have similar ones

Aw this looks like most places here in Ireland 🙂
Sometimes cosy comfort food is what you need. Sometimes cupcakes just won’t do. Yes, I said it!

That looks like such a great place! It’s nice to see businesses supporting local, natural, home grown produce 🙂
Have a lovely weekend x
I really love places like this, the food is always so much tastier than in big chains. Also, that last photo made me smile. Looks like Elsie is getting a little bored of the snow x
In the last photo Elsie looks so gorgeous!!
Love The place and The picts!

That place looks very nice and the sallat and coffee… I like it. Have a nice day,.

This place looks so nice and warm: perfect to have a cosy lunch. And the food looks delicious.
For me, the atmosphere of a restaurant is almost as important as the food, so I would definitely stop by this place.
Oh, and is it snowing in the last picture? I miss snow…
Love from Spain
I live in Kansas City now, but I used to live in Springfield and this place is awesome!

One of the hardest parts of my adult life, has been trying to sneak peas into my diet. I still eat things like cookies and ice cream for breakfast as a way to rebel after being a child who couldn’t leave the table till my peas were gone. Are mushy peas something I need to to try, or is it literally just mashed up peas?
things look so good. wow.
I looooooove that last photo of Elsie! So perfect!!
Ahhh… the pub owners are fans of Celtic Football Club! HAIL HAIL!
I wish Chicago had a Farmer’s Gastropub! Looks like I’ll have to visit Missouri.

We have a farm nearby our house, it’s right in the city and they have the best cafe ever, the ice cream is made from their own cow’s milk and there are peacocks wandering aorund the tables
Aren’t local spots the best? I love them so much. Hopefully I get to visit sometime! 🙂
that last photograph is gorgeous!
Oh my word this place looks too! My friend Anna and I made Leak and Potato soup once. We did it off recipe and to this day I wish we’d written down everything we did. Because it was one of the best soups I’ve ever had.

Hi! I’m new to your blog and would love to suscribe via e-mail but can only find the links for twitter, facebook, etc. Is there a way to do so? Love the crafts and recipes!
We almost went there tonight, but ended up at Ebbet’s Field. 🙂
Looks awesome! I love mushy peas every now and again!

That looks delicious! Jealous of that snow 🙂
The snow looks so darling in the last photo- ethereal almost.
Sounds yummy…not sure about the peas though ^.^
We recenlty drove through Springfield! Next time we’ll have to check it out!
Looks like such a wonderful gastropub! The fries look fantastic.

I love Farmers Gastropub! Last summer I was planning a weekend getaway for me and my fiancé (we are from Joplin) and I wanted restaurants downtown near our B&B, and I felt like I stumbled across a jewel! I had the risotto … Divine! Also went to the Fedora Social House for fondue. Great weekend!
I SO didnt think this would be your thing! (not in a horrible way)
It seems very english to me 😛

Leek and potato soup sounds so good! I could really go for a cup right now.
That looks like such a cool place, and your pictures are super dreamy. One day when I visit Springfield I’ll have to stop there!
We’re eating at the Gastropub tomorrow!! I’ll have to check out the mushy peas!
