Welcome to Evergreen: The Story Behind Our Plant-Filled Café

How a Jungle-Chic Dream Grew into Ocean Springs’ Coolest Greenhouse for Foodies

If you’ve ever walked into Evergreen and immediately felt like you were in a Southern speakeasy meets Parisian greenhouse meets brunch with your coolest friend’s plant-obsessed aunt—well, mission accomplished.

Welcome to Evergreen Ocean Springs, where the food is as fresh as the foliage and the decor is at least 30% responsible for your sudden urge to buy a monstera. Let us tell you how our leafy little haven bloomed into one of the Gulf Coast’s most photogenic—and delicious—hangouts.

🌿 It Started With a Love of Green

Before we plated a single crab cake or stirred a single house cocktail, we started with a simple truth: everything looks better with plants. A lot of plants. Like, wall-of-greenery, potted-palms-in-the-bathroom, vines-over-the-bar kind of plants. Evergreen was designed to feel lush, calming, and just a little wild—like a botanical garden with better lighting and bourbon.

And it turns out, nature pairs beautifully with brunch.

🍳 A Little Bit Garden, A Little Bit Gourmet

But we’re not just here to look pretty (though we are very good at that). At Evergreen, our menus are crafted by a chef who believes “farm-to-table” should include seafood, grits, local honey, heirloom tomatoes, and every Gulf Coast flavor under the sun. Think Crab Rangoon Oysters, Duck Confit Gnocchi, and Avocado Toast with actual personality.

We’re not afraid to get fancy. We’re also not afraid to deep-fry a deviled egg and call it art.

🪴 Plant-Based Vibes (With Room for Everything Else)

Are we plant-based? Sometimes. Do we serve Wagyu? Absolutely. Can you order a carrot tartare followed by a bourbon-glazed pork belly and a vegan chocolate mousse? Yep.

Our vibe is inclusively indulgent. We love plants. We also love butter. We believe you can sip a cold-pressed juice and a craft cocktail and be spiritually balanced. It’s called wellness. Look it up.

📸 Come for the Food, Stay for the Lighting

The truth is, Evergreen isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a mood. The walls are green, the drinks are cold, the playlist is low-key vibey, and the photo ops are endless. Whether you're brunching with the crew or sipping solo in Nick & Nora’s moody speakeasy lounge, we’ve built a space that’s effortlessly cool without trying too hard (we tried very hard).

🌱 So, Why “Evergreen”?

Because some things never go out of style. Like good food, strong drinks, and a dining room that doubles as a plant sanctuary. We’re here to be your always-in-season, never-too-fussy, always-tastes-amazing neighborhood favorite.

So pull up a chair. Order something fresh. Snap a pic. Sip something unexpected. And let the good vines roll.

Welcome to Evergreen. We grow on you. 🌿
