Farmer's Fridge is conveniently located within NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital at the Atrium next to the Starbucks kiosk on the 4th Floor at 525 E 68th St, New York, NY 10065, USA. This location is designed to serve the hospital's staff, patients, and visitors with easy access to healthy food options.

The hospital's location on the Upper East Side is well-served by public transportation. It is accessible via multiple bus routes and is a manageable walk from the 6 train at 68th Street-Hunter College or the Q train at 72nd Street. This makes it a convenient option for anyone in the area, not just those within the hospital itself.

While the location is specific, the concept of Farmer's Fridge is all about accessibility. The self-service nature of our fridges means there are no long lines or waiting for an order to be prepared. This is a significant benefit for those with limited time, offering a true grab-and-go experience that fits seamlessly into a busy schedule.

As a modern cafeteria, Farmer's Fridge offers a streamlined and efficient service model:

• Takeout: Our primary service model is takeout. Our fridges provide a quick and easy way to grab a meal and be on your way. There's no waiting in line, and the process is designed for maximum speed and efficiency.

• 24/7 Access: Many of our fridge locations are accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, making it possible to get a healthy meal at any time, which is particularly beneficial for those working non-traditional hours or needing a late-night snack.

• Mobile App Integration: While not a requirement, the Farmer's Fridge app can be used to view the current inventory at a specific location, reserve items, and pay for your purchase. This adds an extra layer of convenience to the process.

• Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, and Dessert: We offer a full range of meals for every part of your day, from breakfast items to salads and bowls for lunch and dinner, as well as a selection of snacks and desserts.

Farmer's Fridge stands out from other dining options due to its unique features and highlights:

• Unmatched Freshness: Our meals are made fresh and delivered to the fridges daily. We have a commitment to freshness that is a cornerstone of our brand. Unsold food is pulled and donated to local food banks, ensuring that every meal is of the highest quality.

• Chef-Crafted and Nutritious: The meals are not just fresh; they are thoughtfully created by chefs. Our menu includes a variety of options like the High Protein Pesto Chicken Bowl, Southwest Salad with Chili Lime Chicken, and the Blueberry Chia Overnight Oats. These meals are a far cry from typical vending machine fare, offering a gourmet experience in a convenient format.

• Wide Variety of Offerings: We go beyond just salads. Our menu includes salads, bowls, breakfast items, sandwiches, and wraps. You can find everything from a Steakhouse Chopped Salad to a Smoked Turkey & Bacon Club Sandwich and a Chicken Sausage Breakfast Burrito, providing a diverse selection for all cravings.

• Eco-Friendly Practices: A key part of our brand identity is our commitment to sustainability. Our jars are reusable and 100% recyclable, and our unsold food is composted or donated, which allows you to feel good about what you're eating and supporting. One review noted, "The jars that the meals come in are adorable – and they are reusable or 100% recyclable."

• Convenience and Speed: The very nature of our business model is a highlight. The ability to quickly grab a healthy meal without waiting is a major draw for our customers, who appreciate the efficiency and simplicity of the process. One reviewer noted that the concept is "easy, quick, fresh, healthy, tasty, plant-based, and reasonably priced."
