February 2025: We just had the most amazing service for my mom's milestone birthday. Sarah and the rest of the staff went above and beyond to accommodate us and make my mom feel special. Amber and Ava are very professional and sweet young ladies that made sure to be very attentive and patient taking account of every detail. We are definitely going to be regulars!
December 2024: I had the pleasure of visiting Draper Blooms Tea Garden and Sipping Apothecary recently, and my experience could not have been more different from a review I saw by Dalrek. While they mentioned disappointment with the food, I have to say, everything we enjoyed was absolutely delightful and exceeded expectations.
The food was fresh and beautifully prepared. The croissants were melt-in-your-mouth perfection, the sweet potato soup was an absolute standout (definitely my jam!), and the cheese spread was a big hit with our group. The cranberry orange scones were another highlightâfluffy and flavorful.
We also had the opportunity to try 5 or 6 different teas, and each one was unique and delicious. Not having to choose teas added to the charmâit felt like a curated experience where every detail was thoughtfully planned.
Sarah, the manager, was so sweet, helpful, and accommodating, making sure everything was perfect for our Christmas Tea. The atmosphere was cozy and enchanting, adding to the overall joy of the day.
I wholeheartedly recommend Draper Blooms and canât wait to return. Itâs a gem that truly deserves to...
   Read moreRecently, I visited the tea garden with my partner and I can say with confidence that Draper Blooms delivered on my expectations. We had the high tea and it was everything we hoped for and more. The tea parings for the meal felt thoughtful and well placed. We enjoyed a charcuterie with a plentiful selection of cheese, pickled vegetables, fresh fruits, and cured meats. Our tomato soup was silky and flavorful and a fantastic palette cleanser. Moving into our main, the pimento cheese sandwich was notably flavorful and our favorite out of the sandwiches we had. I especially appreciated their attention to the pre-meal note I had left about excluding mayonnaise from the cucumber and chicken sandwiches. My partner dislikes mayonnaise and she was delighted to be able to enjoy these sandwiches. The scones were fluffy with a delicate crumble and paired perfectly with the thick double cream. Our desserts were definitely a highlight of the meal featuring items such as chocolate covered strawberries, earl grey cookies, and orange blossom wafers. In addition to the lovely spread we were served, service was more than adequate with frequent check-ins throughout the meal and the staff made sure our experience was wonderful. We were seated in the sideroom, which if you can reserve it is the best seat in the house. It offers the most privacy and I personally felt it was a homey and cozy nook to enjoy our afternoon tea in. Would absolutely love...
   Read moreWorst tea room experience of my life! Our table was not ready. When they finally seated us no one had a complete set of dishes. No utensils or water glasses. We had made a reservation for High Tea but they said there was a mix up. Our food was served out of order and no mention of what we were being served. No knives to spread jam or what they call clotted cream. They only bring you hot water and you have to brew your own tea. When I inquired about our soup and charcuterie board the response was "Oh you still want that" We were then served a thick, room temperature concoction for soup that was like eating marinara sauce. 20 minutes later she brought out the charcuterie board that was really just a cheese plate. As if that wasn't not bad enough all of the desserts were from Walmart. NOTHING was homemade and NOTHING was good. While we ate they never cleared the used plates. We finally piled them up at the end of our table. As I checked out the owner did apologize and said she gave me a discount for all the inconveniences. She took a whooping $14 off but then added a 20% gratuity for the worst service I've ever experienced. I paid $170 for 4 adults and 2 children and no one enjoyed it. I wouldn't give one star to this place but it was the only way i could...
