    I’ve been to Copper Blossom multiple times over the years but this was the best experience yet! I went with a group of friends and the manager/owner Paul was SO kind and funny! It was the best customer service we’ve ever experienced and we loved our interactions with him. Staff are generally great here but Paul really made our night and we all left saying how nice he was. Drinks were delicious, the ‘spill the tea’ book was a must read and the food was hot and lovely!
