The [Urban Farmhouse](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/troubadour-dining-table) Cleveland is a casual dining experience characterized by its farm-to-table ethics and the rustic-chic decor that celebrates its wholesome menu. Realized by Long Island-based [Dash Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dash-and-la-vieille-ferme), the Urban Farmhouse is decorated to appear as such, with walls of local produce preserved in mason jars and industrial signs that further infuse the space with a sense of Americana.

Aside from reflecting the farm-to-table ethics of the menu, the [casual dining space](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mediterranean-casual-dining) has been infused with work by local artists, images of Cleveland's waterfront and fixtures that feel more like kitchen islands to ensure the diners feel right at home.

This innovative award-winning space is sure to inspire return visits thanks to its homey charm and high quality fare.
