Founding Farmers Alexandria

A table filled with assorted dishes including fried chicken with green beans and pasta, burgers, cornbread in a skillet, fries, flatbread, salad, cheesy dip, and drinks, all set on wooden surface.

Founding Farmers Alexandria is a farmer-owned restaurant serving scratch-made, American food and drink. Sustainably operated and mission-driven, we are open every day for breakfast, lunch, dinner, weekday happy hour, and a delicious weekend brunch.

Our expansive menus showcase house-made pastas, perfectly seasoned rotisserie chicken, specialty burgers, crisp salads, farmhouse sushi and ceviche, and more. There is truly something for everyone to enjoy. With a premium cocktail bar, our cocktails feature spirits from our Washington, D.C.-based distillery, Founding Spirits.

Founding Farmers also offers an all-day grab & go Bakery & Cafe with house-roasted coffee drinks, decadent pastries, and convenient scratch-made breakfast fare. Founding Farmers operates six additional DMV restaurants and one in King of Prussia, PA.
