Our Land Acknowledgement

Brew+Bloom acknowledges the land in which we reside on is Treaty Six Territory. We would like to thank the diverse Indigenous Peoples whose ancestors’ footsteps have marked this territory for centuries, such as nêhiyaw, Dene, Anishinaabe, Nakota Isga, and Niitsitapi peoples. 

Who Are We?

Located in the heart of downtown Edmonton, Brew+Bloom is an award-winning women-led business redefining the dining experience with flowers. We incorporate florals in all aspects of our business from the interiors of our restaurant right down to the food and drinks. Our menu is filled with beautiful, interactive, globally-inspired items because we believe good food can be playful and delicious.

Sam - Founder & Creative Director

Meet our founder and creative director, Sam. ​​​​​Sam is an event planner with almost a decade of experience in the industry. She has organized events of all sizes and created beautiful and memorable experiences for her clients. Although she was passionate about event planning, she was always saddened by the idea that it was all temporary. At the end of each night, the magic and beauty of her work had to be taken down. Driven by her desire to create permanent beautiful spaces for all to enjoy, she used her creative nature and keen eye for detail to create Brew + Bloom as a place people could visit time and time again.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​ Fun fact: Did you know Sam designed and produced all of our floral installations with the help of our team? During her time as an event planner, she also became experienced in floral design!​​​​​​​​

Sha - Events Manager & General Manager

Meet Sha, our passionate Events Manager & General Manager.
