As always Denise provided our group of 25 with an excellent afternoon tea, in great surroundings for a very good price.

Desserts did not arrive so had to enquire their whereabouts. No spoons so had to ask for those. Staff were bust but checks on supplies nit being carried out.

It isn't really a restaurant here, more a canteen. Menu is large and food is freshly prepared however that's where the positives ends.. Extremely overpriced, food was overcooked and pretty tasteless, chips were bright orange.

Ordered drinks. Toast. A cheese scone and a childs meal... what could possibly go wrong.. Drinks turned up promptly. Toast turned up a few minutes later... After 35 minutes i enquired about the missing items.... the lady was Boarderline rude but resolved the issue.... It would have been nice if we could all gave eaten together

It was my day off so decided to my husband out for lunch. As it was Wednesday the Carvery was on. I had a very nice bit of beef & my husband had Turkey. We got there just before 12 & it was already quite busy. The staff were friendly.

Having ordered our food & drink the main course arrived Jacket potato with cheese and coleslaw butter ordered not received. Was ok but nearly £8 20 mins later drinks arrived and only because we went and asked where they were?The coffee was nice but the milk shake I know we said small......it was very.Service was very haphazard and I am not sure nearly £20 for what we had was worth it

Breakfast There was good choice, with more than just the usual 'Full English' on the menu. I chose Eggs Benedict - nice muffin, nice ham, nice egg, nice Hollandaise sauce. Filter coffee was average. Restaurant looks out on the garden centre's plants, statues, etc. Why do I rate my experience as only average? The staff were not unfriendly, but they shouted at each other the whole time, not unpleasantly, but just loud shouts instead of walking nearer to each other and talking. Similarly, no-one came to my table to ask if I needed anything or had finished and wanted anything else - I was shouted at from behind the self-service counter "HAVE YOU FINISHED?!" The staff seemed to consider this to be normal behaviour in a restaurant.

Have been to three or four British Garden Centres locations in the area and I think this is probably the best of those. The menu is the same at all of them (or very similar) but some need updating, and this is probably the best decor which helps you enjoy the food. Menu has a good choice of items without offering too many dishes and unless there is a big rush on then it arrives fairly quickly. After or before you eat the other sales area is worth a trip round and if you are after plants there is a good selection of good quality ones to browse.

We were there for Roast Lunch and we did enjoy our meal but there were one or two problems. Firstly, there were no trays, no glasses for water and no cutlery. The poor lady who was doing everything on her own had to keep stopping to run into the kitchen to get the items that were missing. The roasts of beef, pork or turkey with plenty of vegetables, but, I had turkey and then there was no cranberry sauce or gravy. All this took a great deal of time and the queue was long. How the lovely lady kept so happy I do not know. By the time my husband and I got to the table our food was luke warm and was soon cold. They have a good product but things do need changing to speed up the process. If my food had been hot I would have given five stars. Could a microwave be available for customers to use? It would be nice to have hot food.

Been here for lunch a couple of times in the last month. The first visit we all had sandwiches and we weren?t impressed. Bread was thin, supermarket bread and the salad/coleslaw they came with was almost non-existent. The bowl of chips we ordered was measly with only about 7 chips. However, on a ?we?ll give it another go? visit we ordered hot food (smothered chicken, lasagna and a chicken burger) and it was delicious. Portion size was good, food was steaming hot and we felt for the few extra pounds per meal it was way better value than the sandwiches. It can get busy depending on the time you go. I?d suggest getting there just before midday, or waiting until about 1.30pm when it really quietens down. Large seating area with option of inside or outside.
