Baum & Blume and The Carriage House

"What a hidden gem! If you are available during their very limited hours, do it! Adorable dog-friendly little back patio and gift shop, and as the other reviews attest to they have incredible food for this area. They are primarily a caterer and offer a lot of take-home meal options as well with a rotating menu."

"This place is truly a gem. My husband and I were looking for a space large enough to fit our 25 person wedding rehearsal party in Carmel Valley but still keep it an intimate setting. Right away, a deliciously curated menu was brought together within 24hrs of contact. Decor and lighting was taken care of and made for a beautiful dinner. The food was amazing. It had all of the home-cooked dinner feel with the experience of a classic French bistro!"

"Picked up 2 of the best fruitcakes from Baum and Blume. I meant to serve them over the holidays but we opened one and couldn't stop! They are fabulous!"

"I love BAum and Blume bc their menu is always so interesting and everything is always delicious! Plus the owners are so charming and accommodating. We have had the pleasure of enjoying their food at catered events. My husband and I have also eaten at their small restaurant in Carmel Valley. The only thing we have not experienced is carry out but we plan to do that this week!"

"We had a great experience at this restaurant. The food was not only very tasty but the presentation was perfect. As a French I felt like i was in a French countryside brassery. The service was excellent."
