The food and staff here never disappoint! I used to order food to my office but moved out of state. Coming back, I set a girls lunch here and they were not just prompt with service but kept track of our table when we had to leave at different times to get back to work locations. Great food, we actually got salads even during this time because we know orchard works to keep all things clean!

Food was great with lots of fresh options and rotating specials plus very reasonably priced. We waited about 10 minutes for a table of 3 for Tuesday lunch. We enjoyed everything especially the Asian chicken salad and the seasonal cobbler. Would return!

If you are gluten-free or vegetarian, I would NOT recommend coming here. Despite the menu listing several options, the staff failed at several points more than once to accommodate dietary needs. We ordered the spicy tofu strips, and were brought spicy CHICKEN strips instead. When the food was brought to our table, I asked our server twice whether it was the tofu and they assured it was, I even remarked how much it looked like chicken. Unfortunately, our vegetarian trusted the staff and took a bite, only to immediately recognize it was in fact not tofu. We have no idea whether the sauce was actually gluten-free, either. For a restaurant that advertises the strength of its vegetarian menu, this is a huge mistake, and was unfortunately not the last error that was made. We ordered the crispy tofu stir fry, making sure to specify gluten free tofu more than once. This was after the staff already had messed up our order once. Sure enough, we were brought crispy tofu that looked suspiciously like it had been battered, but our waiter assured us it was gluten free. After taking a bite, we had to check again because it seemed too good to be true. Sure enough, the tofu was NOT gluten free. This time, the waiter blamed the kitchen staff for missing the gluten free note on the ticket. There were multiple points of failure by multiple members of staff. A wholly negative experience, and for folks with dietary restrictions, I cannot recommend Orchard Restaurant in good faith.

Ordered gazpacho, it was ok, but they served it without bread, when I asked for some, they brought wallmart quality bread.. Main course was horrible, small thin piece of salmon, oversalted and burned to black crust at edges, and salty as hell pasta, no flavor at all, 35$ total for disappointment.

We ordered carry out. I got the chicken parm and my SO got the spicy chicken sandwich and they were both delicious. We’ll definitely be back.

The Orchard – Frederick, MD 🌿 The Orchard is one of my favorite restaurants in Frederick. They focus on high-quality, locally sourced ingredients, and everything tastes incredibly fresh. It’s independently owned (not part of a chain), and the cozy indoor/outdoor café atmosphere makes it a wonderful place to enjoy a relaxed meal. I especially appreciate their vegan options, including made-from-scratch daily soups, creamy hummus, and homemade bread. My go-to order is the veggie salad with crispy tofu, hummus, vegan sesame vinaigrette, and I always substitute the avocado for pickled onions. It’s fresh, filling, and packed with flavor. The soup flight is a fun way to sample several of their daily soups. During this visit we tried the vegan black bean soup, vegan watermelon gazpacho, and the creamy mushroom soup (not vegan). It’s a great option to share with someone who isn’t vegan so you can both try a variety of flavors. Other vegan dishes I’d recommend are the Hummus & Pita Sampler and the Hunan Bean Curd entrée, featuring tofu and rice served with a delicious ginger sauce. A small touch I always appreciate is the complimentary fresh water served with your meal. We also came before 6 p.m., which made for a quieter, more relaxed dining experience. If you’re looking for fresh, locally inspired food with thoughtful vegan options in Frederick, The Orchard is definitely worth a visit.

Everything was outstanding at this restaurant! The service was attentive and fast to respond. The food was phenomenal! We ordered the portabella mushroom melt with fried tofu and onion rings. We said we were going to split it...I did not expect them to serve it on two plates but they did. It was perfect for us. The restaurant had lots of people in it but it was not too loud. We could easily have a conversation. Update: A year later and I still stand by my rating! The food is awesome!! The atmosphere is wonderful! And the service is phenomenal! I love this place!

This place really underwhelmed me which is disappointing because I was excited to try it. I paid $15 for a sandwich that comes with no side and comes with the thinnest piece of chicken ive ever seen on each halve of the sandwich. The sandwich had way too much bread and the sauce that came with my sandwich was so watery that I don’t even know if you can call it sauce. I wouldn’t come back.

Well I didnt take the time to take pictures of the entrées but our meal was AMAZING. We're were very happy with the service, attentiveness and quality of the meals. You have to get the tempura onion rings!! Boy howdy! And we got the bolani kachaloo yum yum!! The menu is built for everyone and all tastes. Deep selection in the wine list and also a Troegs lime pilsner that felt like it was made for the cuisine. Looking forward to going back soon. Don't get me started on the dessert offerings! Place has been around for 40 years. The chef has been there for 30 years. Save some time afterward for a stroll along the creek.
