Farmer Boys Restaurants are located in Southern and Central California along with two other locations in Nevada. This restaurant chain is a well-established icon; known for its award-winning burgers, monster-sized hand-battered onion rings and crispy zucchini which are prepared exclusively with farm fresh ingredients.  The decor and atmosphere along with the aroma of farm-fresh prepared breakfast, lunch and dinner entrees are also strong characteristics of this fast casual dining restaurant brand. Although her experience with the local Farmer Boys is new, Stephanie H. has already become a fan. She stated that, "Enjoying a meal at Farmer Boys is like having great home-style food without the fuss." The food presentation, taste and large portions along with the guest services are what she said that will keep her coming back for more.  

Although the burgers are the cornerstone of the menu, Farmer Boys Restaurants offer a wide variety of delicious sandwiches, wraps, salads and breakfast choices which are cooked to order just like their world-famous burgers.
