Bloom Supports Small Business Saturday
As a small business, Bloom Media understands the importance of supporting small businesses and how their success boosts the local communities they serve and beyond. And with many companies still feeling the impact of the COVID-19 crisis, we encourage you to show support by shopping your small, local businesses this Small Business Saturday on November 27, 2021, and every day.
Here are some of the great Small Businesses the Bloom teams frequent and suggest:
Hibernian Pub, North Raleigh, NC
The Hibernian Pub in North Raleigh is a Friday night favorite. There is rarely a wait to be seated, the food is yummy, the staff is friendly, and the drinks just keep coming. This eclectic eatery is filled with secondhand books, antiques, and oddities on display. It offers a range of seating options from pew-style booths, comfy fireside chairs, barstools, and my favorite, semi-private spot where you enter from saloon-hinged doors and can seat my extended family when they come to town. Their menu has everything from pub burgers and wings to a range of traditional Irish dishes like bangers and mash. After a long week, it truly is our happy place where we can go with the family, listen to some classic eighties’ alt tunes, and have a predictably great kickoff to the weekend.
But maybe they put it best…
The Hibernian Restaurants & Pubs celebrate the old-world flavor and the new vibrancy of Ireland. Carrying on with Irish tradition, we offer an atmosphere that infuses the alluring and relaxing nature of an authentic Irish social club and the warmth of a Gaelic home kitchen.
Our dark wood interiors, full of cozy nooks and beautifully sculpted bars, will transport you into Ireland. We proudly cater to all walks of life here in North Carolina. On any day, you will find families, friends, sports fans, and professionals who are all visiting us to talk, debate, laugh, drink and eat. No matter the reason, when you are at Hibernian, you’ll always feel like a local in our pub. Slainte!!!

Record Stop, Patchogue, NY & Charleston, SC
Family-owned and operated since 1974, specializing in New & Used Vinyl Records, CD’s, DVD’s, Blu-Ray, Turntables & Music Accessories. Record Stop began as a small chain of record stores on Long Island in New York.
With over five dynamic decades of introducing Long Islanders to rarefied music that would, undoubtedly, leave an indelible imprint on them and forever weave itself into the tapestry of their lives, Record Stop relocated to the great town of Patchogue, just miles from the original location in Lake Ronkonkoma. In 2018, Record Stop opened its 2nd location, this time in Charleston, South Carolina.
Waterdrinker Family Farm, Manorville, NY
The farm is a great family-friendly place to visit every season, especially during the winter, not to miss all the festivities during their Winter Wonderland.
And located in a former potato barn, next to Waterdrinker Family Farm, you can check the Long Island Farm Brewery room and brewhouse. As fifth-generation farmers’ Barn & Raised’ in the agriculture world, their goal is to create an authentic farm brewery experience. The brewery sits on 80+ acres, which will soon include our relocated hop field. It’s a great place where family and friends can come together and enjoy the different aspects of the farm and the seasonal festivals, farm animals, incredible flower fields, and endless activities for children at Waterdrinker.
Rosie Dosie Embroidery, Online
This female-owned online shop owner and artist is embracing her inner granny and hand embroidering some cute stuff. This is a great place to order some thoughtful, custom-made, high-quality gifts all year round.
Mitaka NY Flowers, New York, NY
This retail flower shop rooted in the Upper East side of Manhattan combines New York Style with a touch of Japanese taste.
Having produced flower arrangements for celebrities such as Madonna and Kelly Ripa, and corporate luxury companies like Oscar De La Renta and Brioni, the owner, focuses on luxury flower arrangements, mixing New York style with a touch of Japanese “wabi-sabi” philosophy.
