Like Tangletown Gardens' farming philosophy, we make our food as it was made long ago - when everyone ate organic or sustainably, free range, locally grown food that wasn’t fussy or high-end. We strive to bring our guests back to this old standard of cooking using the season’s best from our farm. Almost always, the offerings are produced in house. Traditional grass fed burgers and hand cut fries,

sandwiches, links, soups and salads, all complemented by large selection of house-made accompaniments including pickles, dips, and preserves. Guests will enjoy affordable everyday foods, with a culinary twist, made with care. The kitchen’s culinary talent shine's with innovative dinner entrees and specials, plus weekend brunches and weekday breakfast highlighting the best of the season. The restaurant has become the quintessential neighborhood place for casual everyday comfort, including full service coffee bar, bakery, breakfast, lunch, dinner, frozen custard, beer, wine, and weekend brunch. For Scott and Dean, it’s the progressive next step as their business endeavors have evolved over the years. Wise Acre Eatery is a step forward and backwards at the same time, back to the way food used to be grown and valued, and forward to making this old philosophy of cooking accessable to all. We look forward to having you as our guest soon.
