Why "Poplar"?

Inspired by the Tulip Poplars of Rock Creek

Tulip Poplars (Liriodendron Tulipifera) are the tallest trees from the native woodlands we love. They create the setting for magical moments in the woods and also attract a number of delicious wild mushrooms.

At Poplar, we feature mushrooms and other foraged goodies as well as directly sourced sea and farm items. Vegans, Vegetarians, and Gluten-Free guests can always be accommodated. The menu is dynamic, changing daily to capture the height of each growing season.
