High Hand Nursery in Loomis is one of those places that just feels good to be in. It's peaceful, full of greenery, and totally dog friendly -- our pup loved walking around the gardens while we explored. Their weekend brunch is amazing, and the lunch options don't miss either -- especially the wood-fired pizzas and steak salad. After eating, it's fun to wander through all the little shops, check out the brewery, and hang out where they have live music. Easy to spend a few hours here! We're already talking about hosting a private party here someday -- the space is beautiful and has such a relaxed, welcoming vibe. read more

This place is incredible! Definitely worth the stop if you're just passing through or making a point to check out. My family and I were visiting family in Loomis and decided to walk over to check out High Hand. First of this place is HUGE and honestly so dreamy! Who wouldn't want to sip on a brewski or glass of wine while walking around looking at plants to buy?! They have a love garden and plants for sale to browse and enjoy. Nestled in the middle is a cute cafe adorned with lush plants inside. I didn't get a chance to eat at the cafe, but it's in my bucket list now. Once you keep walking, you pass some cute succulents and then inside to indoor plants. Next up you'll find an olive oil, balsamic tasting room. A huge variety of fun, different options to try. I ended up buying a garlic cilantro white balsamic for home! As you keep walking next you'll find a little art gallery and a little cute little artisan store. Then finally you'll run into the brewery in the back with live music playing too! Such a neat spot to browse through and shop a little. read more

We came here when the cafe was closed, so we need to visit again for that! The place is huge and was really pretty to walk around. I loved making our own little succulent and I felt like this place can be as small or big of an experience as you want to make it. The service was also great (Go Sports!) and we have plans to take a visitor here soon. read more

Blow my mind yes! The nursery, the cafe, brewery... all of it. Love love love! We bought plants, had brunch, and drank bevy's! read more

High Hand Nursery is beautiful and surprisingly very affordable. I was not expecting the plants to be as cheap as they were. They are all very well taken care of. The nursery has a section where you can pot your own succulent. Super cool! i would recommend this gem to anyone and everyone coming to Sacramento for a visit or even for locals looking for a good date night spot. It's attached to the brewery and the cafe. Loved my time here! read more

There is so much to say about this nursery and cafe. Since we have been coming here several years ago, we have been regulars to the cafe. During the wait times, we'll stroll the nursery both before dining and afterwards. I have never experienced a nursery with so many beautiful things--especially the setting and location. It's definitely my favorite nursery in the area. I would drive up from Roseville to pick up a few small flowers for my custom pots. Their selection, quality and prices are fair. Great venue, the High Hand story, the people, and their service. And if you're lucky, you just might spot the local sleeping kitty. read more

Beautiful nursery! They have a great selection of plants and we were able to find just what we were looking for. The layout had a very unique aesthetic and the koi pond kept our 10 month old entertained while we were plant shopping. They also have a cafe, which we didn't get to try because they were closing right when we got there. This just gives us an excuse to go back. Lastly, the staff were friendly and helpful! read more

High Hand Nursery is located in the quaint, and quiet town of Loomis. They have a wide selection of indoor, and outdoor pants, including trees. During our visit, we saw a wide variety of Japanese maples in all sizes, and price ranges, a huge selection of pine trees, topiaries, ginkgo biloba 'Little Leaf' male ginkgo trees, hanging plants, including bright an healthy fuchsias, hibiscus plants, even ones with black leaves, loads of succulents, and even a DIY succulent pot making station, with pots, soil, and succulents to crate your dream colorful live succulent arrangement in the pot of your choice, as well as pots, soil, and years art! Additionally, there's a koi pond, a café, a brewery that has live music, and an ice cream shop that sells souvenirs, pickled items, and a wide selection of salsa. We even learned that you can even get married at High Hand. The conservatory can accommodate up to 90 guests in the dining area, and additional 20 guests on the patio. All private events take place after 5:30 pm Wednesdays-Saturdays. I had my heart set on bringing home a multi-colored lantana. After a brunch at their cafe, we went to the nursery to find a multi-colored lantana. It was about 3:45 pm, when we began to get rushed by employees. We were confused because it was still early in the day. We hand no idea, they close at 4 pm on Sundays! They promised to keep a register open for us, so we requested help to find a multi-colored lantana. After we secured our lantana we hurried back to the cashier, but were told by an employee that it was too plate to complete our purchase. It was confusing, because minutes earlier we were told they'd hold a cashier open for us, while another employee escorted us to the lantanas. We thought we'd check-in at the register to make sure, and she was in fact waiting for us! We checked out at 3:59 pm, and all was good in the world. As far as their prices to, hey seemed pretty comparable to our other favorite nursery that has several locations in and around Sacramento. If you plan to visit, please set aside ample time, because it takes at least a couple of hours to browse their indoor and outdoor plant inventory, and even more time of you visiting the café or brewery. High Hands' hours are Monday-Saturday, 9 am-5 pm, and Sundays 9 am-4 pm. Next time we visit, and there will be a next time, we will definitely come earlier! read more

Incredible evening! The Christmas dinner menu is fabulous. The Cafe is spectacular all dressed in his Christmas glory. The nursery is spectacular in it's million of white lights. Roxan was amazing as usual! Erin did a fabulous job organizing the Christmas dinners. The Carolers were a delight to listen to and enjoy. Santa was fun, as usual. I enjoyed the guitar player in the Cafe. This is our third year attending Christmas dinner and it is the highlight of my holiday season! read more

A wonderful place to visit. I get up there only once a year on New Year's EVE DAY We appreciate that they stay open for people that come from afar. A WONDERFUL PLACE TO SHOP!! even on a rainy day. It doesn't stop us.... The other little surrounding shops are great too. read more

Service was okay, took forever to get my cup of coffee. I ordered the turkey sandwich, with cranberry sauce, turkey, cream cheese, etc., it was very dry and they left off the cream cheese. Also, wanted the cucumber salad that they offered along with the other choice of potato salad but they didn't have it so instead of asking if we wanted the potato salad they automatically substituted their garbanzo salad, however, the cucumbers in the salad were mushy and not fresh! read more

I'd say it's a nice place to go to for a small morning/afternoon outing. It has more of a botanical garden vibe compared to other nurseries; a little bit of everything that's scattered and not strictly placed in long rows. Might not find a specific plant that you're looking for but still high chances of impulse buying something! Kinda wished the houseplant section in particular was more extensive seeing that it's located in such a spacious building. Still, neat to see a couple of uncommon plant varieties. Very fairly priced plants in general btw (decently sized monstera Thai constellations that are less than $40, hello???). There's also a robust, meal-service cafe here (High Hand Cafe; it has its own Yelp listing if you want more info about it). No trouble finding parking in the lot on a weekday but I can see folks having to resort parking on the street especially during peak cafe times like Sunday brunch. read more

This may be my favorite nursery ever.. Big place with numerous outdoor seating areas,beautiful trees, plants,yard art,pottery, art, and jewelry,live music, and metal yard sculptures. One of the coolest features is their attached brewery. You can grab a cold one and wander through the block long building, nursery area. Brewery has food,mixed drinks,seltzer, and wine, and they also have a cafe next to the nursery. Mrs D & I spent a couple of hours perusing the grounds and purchased a few items, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. All the employees we're friendly & helpful. read more

A nursery/beer garden restaurant? I think this is the most brilliant concept I have ever come across!

My sisters and I took my mom for lunch to celebrate her birthday. Reserved for a party of six online. We ordered the lemon artichoke appetizer, which was good, but the amount was maybe for like three people. We also ordered the pretzel as an appetizer, which was very soft but crunchy on the outside recommend. We ordered the chicken focaccia sandwich which the focaccia bread was kind of hard and fell apart and was a little on the dry side. I would give that sandwich at 3. The tri-tip sandwich was also ordered and it was more bread than meat. The table also ordered pizza, which was OK. I ordered a watermelon Paloma, which I would not order again, but the hibiscus mule was excellent. That is recommended. The peach cobbler was a hit. We ordered two for the table to share also a carrot cake, which was not good. The waiter ended up taking it off our top so total for six we spent over $300 for lunch. We sat outside and it was really hot and stuffy, and the chairs are extremely uncomfortable. The tip was already included in the bill so our server came by twice maybe to ask if everything was OK and was trying to put plates of food down without picking up empty plates from the appetizers or the empty glasses. Our table was small so we were trying to maneuver arranging all the food and drinks. My mom had been there years ago but had always wanted to go back unfortunately we picked the time a day that was hot so didnt walk around and enjoy all the nursery. The appetizers and hibiscus mule was good. I don't know if I drive over an hour for it again though. read more

I LOVE this place for a day date with the hubby or for the family to all sit and have brunch. The food never disappoints either, my recommendation is the house potato chips appetizer! The plants are all well taken care of and the grounds themselves are beautiful. Plus there's a indoor area to top it off that has all kinds of local goods. A really cool local spot. read more

Huge Nursery, with plenty to see. Love the array of trees they have available. Can take a long time to see everything they have to offer.

What a beautiful way to start your morning. We sat inside which is as beautiful as sitting outside. But all that beauty doesn't take away from the great food they serve. read more

We have been here more than 10 times and have always loved it. Today the crab cakes that we normally love had no flavor and they had ran out of the corn salsa that is supposed to go with them. We were a party of 5 and two of us ordered the fish tacos only to both get insanely sick about 30 min after eating with diarrhea, vomiting, and blood in our stools! We are the only two to get sick and the only two to get sick so it was clearly that. Neither of us had eaten yet and don't live together so it 100% was the fish tacos. In addition to this, we waited 45 min for our food and we had to ask for more water after having several empty glasses for 20 min. I'm not sure what was going on today but it was very out of the usual for this place but whatever it is they better fix it!! I'm not sure we will go back after this and will certainly be telling others about our experience. read more

The experience is amazing and got to say, a great date spot (if I can get one). We started with brunch. I got the chicken cider with potato salad. The sandwich was insane! The flavors were light but balance really well . I didn't feel awful after but was full for sure. The Diet Cola they offer--Idk glass bottle it was good. Potato salad was on point. 100% would dine here again. Our server, mustache, (didn't catch a name) was pleasant to have as well . Great energy bro. The nursery itself is huge! Again, perfect dste spot. Plants everywhere, all different sorts. The gallery also is a thing in its own. So many little shops to explore. And they also do live band and have a brewery on the weekends. Thanks for a good experience:) read more

My new favorite nursery! They have everything from a cute Café, ample parking, and a wide variety of indoor and outdoor plants. They also have a section for olive oils and vinaigrettes - highly recommend the Citrus habanero EVOO if you like spicy flavors! Thanks to Deena for helping us, we went home with some new flavors and some gorgeous Pansies at a great price. read more

So my wife and I went there today to do shopping for a tree. We're not greeted by anyone for over a half an hour. Finally, my wife went up to one of the counters to get some help. The person was not welcoming i.e. no smiling no real engagement. And when my wife asked when we could get it delivered by Wednesday of next week, she cut her off and said absolutely no way. you would have to talk to her manager that came in Wednesday of this week. We love the nursery layout and everything they have but definitely the customer service today fell way short. read more

My go to place for plant purchases. The atmosphere is great. The remodel of the existing warehouse is amazing. I honestly could just hang out there all day admiring the location. The pricing is a bit on the high end but the quality is great. Plants are touchy but generally the plants have done really well for us from High Hand. The staff has always been friendly and helpful when I've asked for opinions. My wife loves to get plants as presents so I always find something new here. Highly recommend! The cafe and brewery are great as well! read more

They have a wide variety of plants available, it's almost overwhelming at first! Everything is well organized into their sections and it makes for such a nice stroll through after brunch next door! Their plants look healthy and well taken care of, and they vary in price and size as well depending on what you're looking for! I definitely want to come back to see what other new plant friends I can bring home! The parking lot is shared with the cafe next door so it can be a little full, but there is also plenty of street parking available as well! read more

We dined here for brunch, shopped at the olive oil store, and shopped at the plant nursery. Plant nursery: 5/5 We bought way more than we intended due to the both the fair pricing and great selection. If you live in the Bay Area, worth the drive for the nursery alone! The olive oil store: 5/5 fun and inventive selection. We tried 3 olive oil samples and 2 balsamic samples, all so good, we ended up buying full bottles of each. Restaurant 4/5 I had the bacon and blue cheese pizza. Perfectly baked. Could use a bit more seasoning, but was still very good. My husband said his veggie omelet was very good. Friends did not care much for his breakfast burrito and seemed not to be enamored by the crab cakes. Kids chocolate pancake was standard. 4/5 rating takes into consideration the mixed reviews at our table. There were several other items on the menu would like to try next visit. Atmosphere is a definite 5/5. We dined outside. Patio was beautiful, tables well spaced out (something you never see in the city or coast), overall relaxing environment. The inside looked beautiful too, would be a great alternative to outside dining on those days where the weather is not cooperating. read more

Very knowledgeable associates. Always ready to assist customers and provide recommendations if asked

What a beautiful little oasis in Loomis! High Hand Nursery was an unexpected spot of beauty and tranquility. It's an extensive nursery with a wide variety of succulents, flowers, shrubs and trees - all very healthy and nicely shaped. Not only was it nice to have such a large selection, it was a treat just to walk through the grounds! There's also a cafe onsite - the setting feels like you're dining inside a greenhouse. The food was excellent (a bit pricey but the freshness and quality were excellent). My group had a salad turned into a wrap, the steak sandwich, and a combo pizza - topped off by a shared piece of carrot cake. All were delicious! As if that weren't enough, after lunch we were able to visit the onsite shops that had lots of unique items and were so much fun to explore. If you're in need of plants and want to spend a very pleasant day shopping and lunching, this is definitely the spot! read more

Well, it certainly is a big place. I walked through most of it, I think. I was traveling so I was not planning to buy any plants and lots of them are grown where I live so I didn't really miss out on anything. They have a large inventory but not a lot of diversity. Many of the plants seem like you're garden-variety, ha ha, Home Depot stuff. It was still fun to walk through everything and explore. I happened to visit when the artists studios were open so I was able to enjoy their work. Lots of nice handcrafted things that would make nice gifts. I especially liked the more unusual decor. There was a section that was selling Christmas items and then oil and vinegar shop. I don't have enough room for all the tasty offerings they had so brought home a few of my favorites. The store should be larger, especially with Covid exposure. It's popular and there's only one register so staff members could use some help because they are very gracious but can only process one sale at a time. Definitely worth a visit! read more

High-Hand Nursery is like a hidden oasis, though the weather didn't play nice on my visit. I'd love to go back when it's sunnier out and pick from the vast amount of potted plants and herbs they have to use for my little garden. The expansive location surprised me, with a delightful koi pond and charming boutiques. The cafe served tasty food, but the hour-long wait left me contemplating whether patience is a virtue I possess. Next time, I'll explore if reservations are on the menu. Rain or shine, it's a vibrant spot worth a visit. read more
