I nearly drove out of the very busy car park as the greenhouses looked very neglected. I'm so glad I found a space. This is a little hidden gem. Although not a huge variety of plants on offer, those that are, are healthy and well cared for and easy on the pocket. They have a small selection of garden accessories as you enter and I found a lovely arched b garden mirror which had been reduced, so a happy shopper.We then went to the cafe which is extremely popular so be warned, in fact I would say that this is the main reason why people visit.The staff are attentive and helpful, the service is quick and the food is delicious and hot and very reasonably priced. They serve breakfast for meat eaters and veggie tastes both large and small plus a selection of light lunches and cakes. I highly recommend a visit. Go past the Crematorium and the centre is just on the right. It's a tight narrow entrance which I missed but there is a turningcircle just below so no problem.

We called in today as we were in the area, we couldn?t fault the food or the staff in the cafe, after lunch we decided we?d potter around, that lasted seconds after the owner who was stapling boards to things spoke to not only us but also the children in our party in quite a rude manor, I work in education and if I spoke to people how she did then I would be sacked. Take lessons from your staff or colleagues on how to speak to people. We were already planning a return trip with our family and friends but not now, horrible experience. Do not let your children speak, look or even think of anything as they won?t be tolerated here!

Recommended to Markeaton Garden Centre and went there for our Christmas tree. The best tree that I can remember and that?s for over fourty years! Great shape, great condition. Hardly any shedding and looking and smelling really fresh when we took it down today.

A fantastic find in the local area. Well stocked with plants and all things garden related. Staff are always friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. Love supporting local businesses and we are now regular visitors to the Garden Centre and coffee shop.

A lovely Garden Centre to visit, with The Potting Shed Cafe. Theres a great choice of plants, bushes, trees and gorgeous pots and planters. The staff are very friendly and are always happy to offer help and advice. I would also recommend a visit at Christmas time. I never miss.My go to garden centre.

I'm kicking myself that I didn't know about this garden centre despite living nearby for years! They even have a good range of pond plants and some tropical garden plants, too! I'm definitely coming back again!

Reasonable stock for a garden centre of this size, and a lovely café, a minute's walk from the park.

Compared to others, this is a very small garden centre, but I think that this is also part of its appeal.This is a garden centre for gardeners, not some glorified version of Debenhams with a few plants.They have an excellent cafe on site and adequate parking too.

Food is great, service is superb especially in view of staff shortages. One of our favourites.
