Planning Guide
Introduction / Welcome Letter
Welcome to Food Services and the enduring
tradition of gracious hospitality at The Butchart
Gardens. Over 100 years ago Jennie Butchart
offered tea to visitors. In 1947, the Benvenuto
Garden Teahouse opened in the original Butchart
residence, which today operating as The Dining
Room Restaurant, is only one of a variety of
dining options available on the property.
We also offer convenient lunches, snacks and
picnics “to go” from The Coffee Shop, for those
occasions where time is of the essence.
We take great pride in presenting exceptional
and innovative menus, using the very best
ingredients created with local Vancouver Island
product wherever possible. Our professional staff
will strive to meet all your expectations and make
the visit to The Butchart Gardens one that your
group will remember.
Choices range from summertime picnics on the
residence lawn to elegant five course executive
dinners. Experience our famous Butchart Gardens
Afternoon Tea or our unique Blossom Lunch
menus, available in The Dining Room Restaurant.
Our Blue Poppy Restaurant offers breakfast,
lunch and dinner in a flower filled conservatory
style setting.
