Cafe: pleasant environment; excellent food; reasonable cost. Customer-oriented staff except for the lady in black with specs on the check-out till who might benefit from developing her inter-personal skills: her automotive and rigid stance slows the paying process down, causing a queue at times.

An exceptional spot offering everything you need for your garden, including plenty of outdoor space displaying posts, plants, and various outdoor items. Don't miss the opportunity to browse through the wonderful range of garden buildings and sheds while dining at the superb onsite restaurant.

Can't really comment on the garden centre. It is quite small which may suit what you are looking for compared to some of the mega sized stores in the area, particularly Longacres, a short drive down the road. We came for a late breakfast early lunch. There was a small queue, and after speaking to the lady seating people who was very polite, seemed they were struggling due to the end of a half price breakfast offer. I was asked if we were there for breakfast and I said no, thinking it was just reference to them transitioning to lunch menu which didn't bother me. However I then found they were not serving food hot food at all when at the till and was a bit rudely spoken to by a lady when I picked up a utensil to get a piece of cake, asking had I not read the small sign which I had moved past saying they served the cake themselves as she took the utensil from my hand, a bit ridiculous if you ask me, the lady behind me in the queue also shared a glance and eye roll with me over the matter? I then ordered a Latte and was told the machine was broken, so all in all was a pretty pointless affair at that point. We left and had some nice food at M&S cafe instead!

Had an amazing breakfast this morning and bought a few bits on the way out . The staff were working hard and we're pleasant both in the restaurant and the sales areaDefinitely worth travelling that little bit further

Visited and purchased paving from the Westminster Stone/paving centre at the back of the garden centre. Absolutely delighted, some breakages but all replaced by Bob who was helpful with our choice and great with the odd problem 10/10!!!

Great food but oh my word it is slow in the cafe. A very inefficient team and way of working. Very quiet when we were there but I have still stood here after paying waiting 18 minutes for a cup of tea and piece of cake.

Garden center is lovely with friendly and helpful staff. Dont go to the restaurant if you have dietry needs, they are not adaptable or helpful which is a shame.

I've been shopping here for years (mostly to eat in the cafe as the plants are expensive!) However the plant quality is excellent and the choice of plants very good. The cafe: not cheap but good quality, lovely atmosphere and above all the cafe staff are lovely, friendly and obliging. (So pleased that the full and small breakfasts are back on offer, not just baps!) I would like to have more merchandise in the shop (to compete with Longacres) but understand that space is limited. Overall this is a lovely garden centre to browse, shop and eat.

A sweet little garden centre, and the cafe is always popular. The only thing is they always seem to sell the same food, and never really do anything chocolate. Please can we have more varied cakes etc.
