One of the best COVID dining experiences to date! The food here is outstanding - super fresh farm to table, breakfast BLT and mushroom omelets were just wonderful and huge! The patio is properly distanced and our lovely server John was very careful to give us space which we greatly appreciated. I can’t say enough about their precautions to make us feel safe and enjoy our meal!

This family owned shop and cafe has an amazing back-story about it's mushroom farm in Wisconsin. It's worth reading on the website to give you a greater appreciation for the business, the quality of food and the farms that are the source for the produce and grocery products.
The shop is smaller than I expected. There are really interesting products from local farms or artisans, lots of mushroom-based goods, lots of tomato-based sauces and salsa's that are heavy on the veggies and delicious. There is an alcohol room featuring a couple of Farmhouse wines from a family business in California with a great story about improving the sustainability of the grapes and land.
Outdoor and indoor seating is available for the cafe. An incredible menu, which includes a list of farms where the ingredients come from.
Unlike the uppity ritzy farm-to-table restaurants typically found in Chicago that seem all about being trendy and the scene, this place is quaint and simple with excellent quality everything!
Awesome farm stand type restaurant and store! Has very good fresh veggies, sauces, and pastries! We didn't eat the restaurant but we did get a large assortment of produce! Great place with friendly staff! We will be back.
Had a great brunch! We ordered Mushroom Scones, Egg BLT, and Avocado Benedict. Non of the items that we ordered disappointed us. The food quantity was a little on the higher side (I guess it is because we ordered a sharable so we ended up taking some food home for dinner). Over all, a great experience!
I initially was introduced to River Valley at my local farmers market. They cracked my brain open to how incredible shiitake mushrooms are and was so excited when I realized they had a store in Ravenswood. I purchased the mushroom club package for my partner for his birthday and we’ve been enjoying the process of growing. It’s nice to go in once a month to pick up our kit and snag some of their additional offerings.
First time here and first time having an egg benedict and it was pretty good. Only complaint I had about this place was the wait time. Maybe they had a cook call off or something, not sure but took a bit long to get the food out. Other than that pretty good spot
Deeeeelicious brunch outside complete with Bloody Mary and homemade pickles on top! Excellent service provided by Ryan and outside farm to table breakfast - fried green tomato Benedict and asparagus/morel omelet were outstanding!
Fresh mushrooms, small but delicious food selection, wine and various liquor options. You can also order latte or coffee.
Found this great store at a farmers market in Lincoln Park this weekend . Great customer service. They care. What a wide variety of mushrooms and the quality was over the top. Many thanks we will be back .
Always fresh ingredients. Their inventory changes slightly with the seasons, and I love that I can always find something to elevate / spice up my meals here.
Small, but good natural wine selection that’s reasonably priced. They have a pickled things / jarred good section made from local sellers which I love.
Reasonably priced granola too! Wonderful bread from local bakery / day old section has better bread than any grocery store around. Good mushroom frozen pizza. Mushroom everything is great here!
