This is such a lovely place, and the owner, Shannon, is an absolute delight! I can’t recommend this place enough. From booking - all the way to the end, everything was clearly communicated and very reasonably priced. Knowing that I can come back or call with questions about my plants and get friendly help is far more than I ever expected. Five stars on all fronts! 🌿✨

Shannon OUR QUEEN. Oh my lanta - this place is so warm and inviting and cozy, I asked plenty of stupid questions I’m sure and Shannon was so kind and helpful!!! Not condescending, super lovely and what a beautiful experience to share with my boo thang (and our new fav Shannon).

We’ve been coming to The Wood and Root Bar since before the bar part was even added, and it’s still my favorite place to find new plants! Shannon, the owner, is always so kind, helpful, and fun to talk to. She’s helped me save so many of my plants over the years and always has great advice. I’ve brought in boxes of struggling plants to repot or revive, and she never hesitates to help bring them back to life. The huckleberry mojito and pineapple margarita are both incredible, and I still find new pots and creative ways to display my plants every time I visit. Today she helped me make a kokedama and revive a terrarium! It’s a great spot for a girls’ day, some “me” time, or even a date…my husband’s been dragged in a few times and had fun too! Though I’m sure there are times he wishes I wouldn’t spend all our money there on plants 😂🪴

I feel like our experience could have been much better. My friend booked everything and there were no prices online, and we arrived & discovered why. The terrariums are expensive, the plants are very overpriced--$10 to start for tiny ones--and then the environment wasn't super positive. I wish I could say that it was a really amazing experience, and spending time with one's friends is, but it didn't feel very welcoming. I found out my friend had to pay a deposit just to reserve a table. We were immediately told to put our drinks away or have them put behind the bar (a closed non-alcoholic drink and a water bottle) because of the liquor license & its strictness (?). There were people having fun, & making cute stuff. The actual place is beautiful. The owner was good at explaining how to position the plants for the right water balance, but... It fell flat. $70 for a terrarium, drink, 2 plants? I would rather just go try it on my own.

A friend and I stopped by tonight to have a drink and put together some fun plants. We hadn't thought to make a reservation, and they were able to fit us in anyway, even though it was super busy! This place is amazing, everybody was so helpful and friendly! The vibe is amazing, beautiful plants everywhere, and yummy cocktails to sip on while you create. The owner and all of the staff made it such a fun night! They guide you through all the steps to make sure you're happy with your plant. Will definitely be back, thank you for such an awesome experience and being so warm and welcoming! 🪴 💓🍸

My daughter and I made an impromptu visit to this place back in November, and it turned out to be an unforgettable experience. The two women working that day- one of whom I believe was the owner - were absolutely amazing. They guided us through every step of the process with enthusiasm, making us feel truly welcomed. Their passion for what they do was contagious, and it made the entire experience even more special.

While the prices are on the higher side, I completely understand why. The level of service they provide is exceptional, taking the time to explain not just the steps, but also the reasoning behind each one. They carefully source all their plants to ensure they thrive in a terrarium setting, categorizing them and helping you understand what works best.

I’ll be sharing photos from the day of our visit, as well as an update on my terrarium - it’s still thriving! I can confidently say I got my money’s worth. This is the perfect spot for a date night, girls’ night out, mother-daughter bonding, or any gathering with like-minded people. Plus, they serve wine and other spirits, adding to the fun atmosphere.

We will absolutely be back! Highly recommend.

Wife and I came for a quick stop on our honeymoon. Long story short it took up the rest of our evening. We ended up potting more plants after the initial terrariums we built because we were enjoying ourselves THAT much. The owner (wish I could remember names better) was very involved where she needed to be (told my wife exactly what was was per friendly and HOW per friendly and WHY) and very hands off where it was deserved (we had three more adult beverages!) I'm without words. What an amazing experience. We will be bringing every person we know here to share this local adventure.
