Blossom & Brie Farmside Dining
Farmside dining Fort Myers: A small sign modestly posted along a country road in Southwest Florida marks the entrance to another world. As you wind down the long driveway of Blossom & Brie, white rail fencing guides you through 86 acres of working farmland, setting the stage for one of North Fort Myers’ most delightful culinary surprises.
“…we hope you’ll find this to be an extraordinary destination to create treasured connections”
The restaurant embodies rustic elegance, sharing grounds with a charming pole barn that doubles as a wedding venue. Here, dining becomes an immersive experience – piglets nurse in nearby barns, a devoted trio of donkeys keeps watch over the livestock, and free-ranging chickens provide the fresh eggs that grace your plate.

Wine Dinners
Enjoy a five course meal paired with curated wines. Farm fresh cuisine expertly crafted by Chef Wesley and his team are certain to delight your tastebuds.
Organic…
Even lying down, I could tell it was the biggest farm creature I’d ever seen! The gentle giant of the farm – a cow that towers above the fence line – led the herd that grazed peacefully around the restaurant. Dotting the landscape, the serenity of the animals matches the mood on the farm.
Visitors are encouraged to explore the grounds, meeting the animals and understanding the connection between the farm’s careful stewardship and the flavorful creations Chef Wesley prepares for the plate.
Just a short drive from Florida’s famous coastline, Blossom & Brie feels like a world away from the bustle of the city
The Dining Experience
On a bright Sunday morning, I shared brunch at Blossom and Brie with my favorite little saltwater cowgirl who’s equally enchanted by the ocean and the farm (and little plastic dogs, as you can see!).
As we waited for our reservations, we met a mother and her young son, the two kids becoming fast friends and skipping off to see the donkeys. The mother told me she regularly enjoys date nights with her husband here, and today was meeting a friend to enjoy brunch for the first time.
While wandering the grounds for this farmside dining Fort Myers experience, we were drawn to the pig nursery which was bustling with new life. One litter appeared just hours old, while others danced around with their tiny tails bouncing with joy. They were so adorable, I joked with our waitress about sneaking one home in my backpack.
Inside the dining room, Taylor Tones (@taylortones_) entertained guests with nothing more than a guitar and her sweet melodic vocals. The brunch menu included a good selection of beer, wine, and morning mocktails and cocktails. I chose the Farm Fresh Quiche which had a kiss of nutmeg that enhanced the flavor of the spinach. On the side, a garden fresh salad topped with strawberries, blackberries, and goat cheese. And despite visiting the newborn piglets just moments before, an order of Walk Around Bacon, its brown sugar glaze creating an irresistible sweet-savory blend.
Before heading home, we wrapped up some housemade cinnamon rolls! With the aroma of warm sweet bread and cinnamon wafting inside the car, I admit that temptation was too great and only a few made it all the way home.
