Blooming Hill Farm - Monroe, New York

Julien J.

Blooming Hill Farm is hands down our favorite restaurant and honestly, probably the best dining experience in the area. If you’re looking for a place that combines fresh, farm to table food with a beautiful atmosphere and a unique experience, this is it.

We came for brunch and ordered The Sting wood-fired pizza and the Farmers breakfast, and both dishes were absolutely fantastic. The pizza had the perfect balance of flavors with just the right amount of heat, and the crust was perfectly crisped in that beautiful wood-fired oven. The FARMER’S BREAKFAST was hearty, flavorful, and you could taste how fresh every single ingredient was from the eggs to the seasonal vegetables.

What really sets Blooming Hill apart, though, is the overall experience. After brunch, we wandered through their farmers market, which was full of fresh fruits, vegetables, and other local goodies. Everything is grown right there or sourced from nearby farms, which just adds to the authenticity and charm of the place.

The vibe is rustic, welcoming, and just feels good. Whether you’re a foodie or just someone looking for a special meal in a beautiful setting, Blooming Hill Farm is a must visit. We can’t wait to come back!

I loved photographing a wedding at this venue, and not only because there’s cats and chickens walking around! The staff is super friendly and organized, the food is truly amazing, and the location is beautiful!

There’s a greenhouse/barn building for indoor portraits and cocktail hour, one of the prettiest outdoor ceremony spaces I've ever seen, and a large tent for the reception.

They also provided the flowers and cake, which looked amazing! How’s that for easy?

Brunch review - food is out of this world, aesthetics in the restaurant are beautiful and something out of a plant-lovers dream, staff is so kind, 20/10 would recommend! The farmer’s market is adorable too. Buy their homemade hot sauce!

Wedding venue review - recently got married at Blooming Hill Farm and everything was perfect. The only way to describe it is MAGICAL.

From the moment you tour with them, it’s incredible. The staff treats you with the utmost care and kindness. We toured with Kate who is the kindest, funniest and most helpful person. She also became like our best friend for the last year as BHF provides you a “coordinator” who has planning phone calls with you at 6 months, 3 months and 1 month. NO EXTRA CHARGE to hire a coordinator. It’s amazing. She easily sold us on the venue, as if the grounds weren’t beautiful enough. The whole farm is gorgeous with lush trees, flower fields, hanging lights and plants. Getting married there is an experience because you move around the venue for each part. The ceremony site is pure magic, looking out on to a gorgeous field. The cocktail hour is in a “barn” but we called It a greenhouse because it’s full of hanging plants. It was everyone’s favorite spot!! The pictures in there are stunning. Then you move to the permanent tent with lights strung all around for the reception. The decor included saved me so much time and money that I barely needed to do anything for decor. They provide chalkboards and can make any signs you want! They offer you a card box, seating chart signs, table numbers and so much more for the tables. In general, this venue is so gorgeous that you don’t need much added at all. There is an in-house florist who you can choose to use, which we did and were so relieved to have one less decision to make but also she did an great job with the bouquets and tables. The whole wedding felt very farm-to-table.

Don’t even get me started on the food. It’s not wedding food. It’s straight from their talented chefs in the on-site restaurant. Every single guest RAVED about the pizzas from cocktail hour and the chicken at dinner - has anyone ever complimented chicken at a wedding?! We did family style and everyone loved all of it. Every dish from them is out of this world. Safe to say the wedding tasting was one of our favorite memories, trying all the food and wine which you get to pick too! The drinks were great (including house-made apple cider!) and served in mason jars, so adorable.

BHF truly orchestrates the perfect day so you can enjoy yourselves including a flawless first look , a private moment after your vows and a bonfire with s’mores at the end of the night. They think of every detail so you don’t have to. Also price wise - for everything that is offered to you to use, the incredible food, the support you’re given and the gorgeous surroundings, you can’t beat it. This was hands down the most affordable and stunning wedding venue we came across in the Hudson Valley. (and not DIY!)

I don’t even know where to start! Blooming Hill Farm created our dream wedding; everything about the farm and the people who work there helped us have the most memorable day of our lives! BHF makes the whole process as easy as it can be; from helping you find vendors that they know and trust, to being available to answer any and every question, they really are a dream to work with. They are truly a full service venue!

It is hard to describe how beautiful the farm is; the ceremony space is through a path into a clearing – so beautiful and serene; all you can hear are the sounds of nature. Hearing the birds chirping while visiting for the first time sold us on this venue. The barn is SUCH a cool spot for cocktail hour – it is perfectly decorated with wild flowers from around the farm. The reception under the tent looked so amazing (with plenty of space for dancing!). They also have a bonfire with s’mores, and set up custom cornhole boards we brought!

I PROMISE you this will be the best food you will ever have at a wedding. The wood-fired pizzas at cocktail hour are unbelievable, the main courses and side dishes are so good, and the bakery Blooming Hill partners with, The Cakery, made us a gorgeous cutting cake our guests were envious of! Also, Blooming Hill offers family-style dinner, a rarity for weddings. Your guests can try all entrees and sides, and all the food was served to our 150 guests within 15 minutes!

As beautiful as the farm is, and as incredible as the food and drinks are, the best thing about getting married at Blooming Hill is Kate and her team. Kate could not have been more helpful throughout the whole process of planning a wedding; answering all our questions, communicating with vendors, and most importantly, making sure the actual day goes perfectly. It really is like having a team of wedding planners, and it was so incredible to know that Kate & team were there to make sure the whole day would be seamless. From day 1 we felt we were in good hands. On the day, the team anticipated every guest’s needs; drinks were never further than arm’s reach (I don’t think we saw an empty glass all night!). They also have a golf cart available for guests who may have trouble getting around the farm. We mean it when we say every single detail was thought through and perfectly executed.

We have had SO many people tell us it was the best wedding they have ever been to. We are still in awe of how our wedding looked exactly how we envisioned. Whatever you see in your head, the team at Blooming Hill will execute it perfectly. From the beautiful location, to the food and drinks, and how every little detail is thought of and accounted for, we cannot say enough great things about this place! Also, one of the best parts is that Blooming Hill is a restaurant that we can go back to whenever we want 😊

Thank you Kate, we are eternally grateful for you!

Today was my first experience at Blooming Farms and it was great! I had brunch with my daughter. We enjoyed the Sinclair Pizza, French toast bread pudding, and hash browns.Our service was outstanding with our server Amanda. I highly recommend that you go to this and experience the delicious food. Also make sure to stop by and get yourself some fresh produce as well. I will definitely be back soon

Ive been wanting to try this spot for some time but they’re usually booked. Finally got a table on a Wednesday and I have to say the wait was worth it. There is something so charming about that rustic, farm aesthetic and of course nothing beats a place that concerns itself with quality ingredients. The cocktails all sounded amazing as well, but I settled for the 1984 – it was so good that my seldom drinking mother helped herself to it. I was super excited to see skate being offered, as its not a common menu option. There were a few other interesting offerings such as wild boar ragu and pumpkin ravioli. Every person at the table enjoyed their dish, and the focaccia served with seasoned oil at the start was heavenly. My skate served with braised cabbage and crispy fennel surpassed my expectations – did I lick the plate clean? =P But of course our dining experience was made that much better by our waitress, Amanda. She was very pleasant and attentive, and I loved that she made sure our table was doing well without hovering. Amanda also went above and beyond by taking pictures (the night before Halloween – it’s a must to wear some kind of costume) of us at the table and outside. I look forward to coming back and enjoying many more dishes of their always changing menus. Really wonderful little spot for any occasion and definitely the perfect date night restaurant.

Where do we begin?! Blooming Hill Farm is THE place in the Hudson Valley to have a wedding. The grounds are downright gorgeous. Every corner of the farm is full of beautiful details that feel so organic and yet stylish. Their ceremony space is dreamy, the cocktail hour barn is stunning, and the tent is magnificent. They have truly thought through all the details (like a campfire and s’mores!) and have curated a magical setting for weddings. Our guests were so impressed with such a unique location that reflects the natural beauty of the Hudson Valley.

Next, the food is delicious! This is not your typical wedding food. Their chef creates amazing menus inspired by what is growing in season right from the farm, with pretty much everything else sourced locally. Our guests were raving about how good the food was from cocktail hour through dinner, with pizza at the cocktail hour as a huge hit. We chose family style for dinner, and the food came out so quickly, all at the same time, and still hot! The bar selections are refined and high quality yet familiar.

The staff is attentive, organized and just incredible to work with. Kate was our coordinator and having her every step of the way was phenomenal. She is down to earth, very cool, and personable while also very organized, professional, and proactive. She went above and beyond to make our night special. In addition, the rest of the staff and bartenders were also always super friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable.

The experience of our guests was incredibly important to us, and we can confirm our wedding day was a seamless guest experience from the moment they arrived to the end of the night. Blooming Hill thinks of everything. We were blown away by the attention to detail, anticipation of needs, creative problem solving, and intentionality from Kate and her team. While we didn’t have a traditional wedding planner, it almost felt like we did with all the communication we got to have with Kate in the year leading up to our wedding. Overall, we feel that we got way more than our money’s worth by having our wedding at Blooming Hill. The value of what’s included in the venue fee (candles, linens, champagne toast, s’mores, other decor, etc.) saved us a lot of money while still having everything we wanted. We truly cannot recommend Blooming Hill Farm enough and we can’t wait to return for brunch!

Blooming Hill Farm is a nice spot if you’re in the mood for fresh, farm-to-table food. Everything is made with quality ingredients, and you can really taste the difference. The menu changes with the seasons, so there’s always something new to try, which keeps things interesting.

That said, it’s not cheap, but you’re paying for freshness and well-prepared dishes, so I think it’s worth it. The atmosphere is cozy and rustic, making it a good place to slow down and enjoy a meal. If you appreciate good food made with care, this place is worth checking out.
