Reviews of Dobbies Garden Centre York

R. K.

They have a lovely selection of indoor and outdoor plants. Friendly service But they can be a bit pricey.

J. b.

Really fantastic selection of products, would buy the whole shop if I could. Slightly pricey. The staff are always happy to help. Plants always look in good health are well maintained. Just repotted some of our house plant collection with some lovely pots from here.

Great little cafe with a bonus garden centre attached! Like a great deal of the population, I enjoy spending many a morning mooching around garden centres. Leafing through the plants, digging for those hidden bargains, and rooting out the perfect present for green-fingered loved ones. My dad used to take me out to the cafe at Dean's growing up, now I go with my mum of a morning; sometimes just for a wander around and a catch up, occasionally for some bedding plants or a rose as well. Always for a coffee and cake; I got the impression most of the other clientele were in a similar situation - a morning out, refreshments, maybe a plant or two. Today we signed up for a Dobbies Card. It costs just £12 (!) and for that you get 10% off all plants, a birthday treat, and two free hot drinks every month!! That is incredible value, even if you're just going for the cafe, and not buying anything. Plus I'm sure I got more than 10% off the plant I got my mum! The registration process was fairly straightforward. The only criticism of the whole place is the random slope from the checkout to the door. Why they haven't done anything about it I do not know. Also the car park is a minefield. I was pushing the empty trolley back to front of the store when I hit a pothole that can only be described as vertiginous, having stopped moving forward, I walked into the trolley and injured my leg. We wouldn't have parked so far away, but my mum was getting her car valeted. £25 inside and out and we left the keys with them. Great job!

We are regular customers at Dobbies York. Having a Dobbies card and having the free drinks every month. Everyone in the cafe and till staff are friendly always happy and chatty. However a very special mention must go to Pauline in the food Hall. Pauline is always very friendly. Happy to chat and make us feel welcome. She will always point out any special offers and advise on what's in stock this week. We come along especially to see Pauline as she makes shopping a happy experience.

We had afternoon tea booked for two adults and a child. We were so impressed, not only was it delicious and a great selection of cakes and sandwiches but the child's one had flower shaped sandwiches! Great service, lovely cafe. Great selection of plants and a nice kids section of books.

J.

This garden centre is local to me so is extremely handy. It stocks a wide range of plants, bushes and all manner of things one expects to find in a garden centre including a coffee shop, indoor plants and gifts. I could go on but really to appreciate this local amenity just go and see for yourself.

D. C.

Lovely garden center with nice healthy plants. And the added bonus of a small cafe. Friendly staff, quick service and Lovely sandwiches and a great selection of cakes. A good area for gifts and children section. And if you need anything there's also a local Sainsburys.

B. L.

This is an excellent garden centre. They sell a variety of plants including house plants, vegetable patches and outdoor plants. They also sell lots of homeware, gifts and pet items in the indoor area of the store. The cafe is nice too, and the staff are friendly and always serve you with a smile.

S. W.

Exemplary customer service received from Kerry today, she took the time to contact several other Dobbie’s garden centres trying to track down two chairs that I wanted. Suffice to say, she succeeded and my husband and I are both extremely grateful for her help and assistance with this. First class service - thank you so much Kerry you made our day!

D. T.

Visited mainly for the cafe and we weren't disappointed, a large portion of hot tasty food, though slightly expensive, as a can of Coke was £2.20. We passed through the retail section twice and a great selection of items..

d. m.

Had a lovely lunch at Dobbies cafe. Freshly made sandwich, plenty of filling served with a lovely fresh side salad. All washed down with a really tasty pot of tea and americano coffee

M.

Great garden centre with a superb aquatics section which I frequent. The garden centre is very large with good variety. Prices are a little steep, but as to be expected. It's worth making use of the dobbins card as you get 10% off My only grumble would be that I visited the cafe today, and they were desperately understaffed to the the point the poor girl serving looked ready to quit. She did amazing to handle the entire crowd on her own. Dobbies really need to 3mploy more stuff or manage their rots a little better. The present stsff are a credit but need to help each other more during busy times especially in the cafe

M. L.

Garden centre is superb but expensive. It truly has a huge range of productsoutfooe/indoor healthy plants, garden furniture, gifts etc, even a lovely and well kept aquatic area. I've only rated it three stars as the cafe let's it down badly. The food isn't always great and some of the cafe staff seem a bit disorganised and not very attentive. On one visit with a gent with a walking stick and memory issues whom I needed to link arm with to guide. I had to leave him at the table alone to carry both of our orders to our table myself then return to the counter twice more to seek out cutlery and napkins. Staff offered no assistance at all but just stood there watching - I wasn't impressed so I've not been back.

J. B.

Lovely garden centre with an extensive range of plants and more, with plants always very healthy. BUT, in the two years I’ve been going there, there has never been more than one till open. So, as soon as anyone has a problem (which happens all to often) you are just stuck. You are probably going to spend at least as long queuing at the till as you spend going round the garden centre.

J.

Nice garden centre with a large range of gardening and household goods. There is a small Sainsbury's in store and a restaurant with a range of foods. Covered outside area for dogs if eating at the restaurant.Friendly staff Recommended

J. R.

Lovely place. Great staff, disabled accessible. Lots of plants and lovely things to buy. Very covid safe, lots of car park spots. Lovely day out Can't comment on the cafe as its shut because of covid

R. J.

Great variety of garden items and gifts. Got some spring bulbs at reasonable price. However, I think other items, like gifts, kitchen suplies and toys are overpriced.

A. C.

Good garden centre which will evolve under the new owners Dobbies. Now includes a Sainsbury food outlet

j. g.

I’m local to Dobbies in York and enjoy the savings with my Dobbies loyalty card which also gives us two free hot drinks each month as a bonus as well as accumulating points on all spending which then generates a voucher to get further savings on purchases, Dobbies have a very impressive range of plants and other garden products as well as an aquatic centre , also selling pet and bird feeding products, I have to say that I find many prices too high when compared to many other competitors eg. supermarkets and larger diy stores and people do compare which will affect sales, I find the cafe prices way too high for cakes, scones etc. And don’t represent value for money, in my opinion. I always check the in store Sainsburys when I’m at Dobbies and will buy something most times, Pauline, one of the ladies in there is very friendly and helpful and always has time to welcome people into the store which does make me want to buy while there 🤣🤣 there’s a chap in there called Dan who is also very helpful and welcoming I’ve discovered that we support the same football team so alway have something to chat about while I’m there . I’ll do think that a look at the pricing policy in some areas would make you more competitive and increase sales. Hope this is deemed constructive and not critical.

J. O.

Lovely place to visit to see many different flowers and drink a cup of very good coffee or tea 🍵

J. P.

Well stocked garden centre with a large car park and a small Sainsbury's supermarket. Disappointing cafe with a very limited choice of food and drinks due to "staff shortages".

A. B.

Amazing range of garden ware and staff were very friendly, encouraging us to become members to save a large sum of money off the items we'd purchased.

I. W.

This is a great garden centre with plenty of choice for every taste. There's even a Sainsbury's on site, which could be very handy. Toilets are clean and well maintained. So why only 3 stars? Because I was shocked at the prices.

M. N.

Nice place to visit full of plants and things for the home, also a cafe and a Sainsbury's inside.

T. W.

Disappointing display of rather tired looking plants for sale. Not as good as the previous Wyevale or Challis stores.

W. C.

First visit since Dobbies took over and sadly found no improvements have been made. Needed to borrow a wheelchair but gD to hile through the store to find one. . Surface very rough, was constantly in fear of being thrown out of chair which seemed to be made for someone half my average height. Toilets smelled distintly like half cleaned public ones. No disabled loo signposted. Only menu appeared to be in tiny print on the wall behind the counter. Won't rush back. Shame because the actual plants selection znd quality looked very reasonablehad to hike through the store to find one

G. R.

Only went for coffee and then to the indoor Sainsbury's but it was a good experience. Would have preferred not to queue at the checkouts with garden centre customers as there was a lot of soil on the counters.

K.

Eye-watering prices for plants. Cafe was ok, but the outside area is very depressing and music far too loud. Staff were nice (when they could be found).

k. m.

The dream is to spend a Sunday morning walking around Dobbies garden centre. Investigating the local shrub, plants and fountain features. Don't forget to check out the wide range of Koi and exotic goldfish they have in stock. A must if you have an outdoor pond. But watch out for them Gastly herons!

J. A.

My hot drink wasn't so warm & not a full cup @ that. A very good variety of plants, vegetables, strawberries & tomatoes etc though.

T. J.

Well set out, easy to find what I wanted. Good cafe. They also sell a lot of landscaping accessories.

J. M.

There to get the car valleted, so wandered round the garden centre and had coffee in the cafe. All good, prices very reasonable.

S. S.

Met family here and had a nice look around. Decided to get some food but unfortunately we were told no baked potatoes. Disaster for my partner due to what he can eat so asked for a chicken and tomato sandwich with no butter. No can do as its not on the till ! Come on, surely it could have been sorted ? He ended up with egg with no butter !!!!! Pretty sure that wasn't on the till either but never mind. We enjoyed our visit but felt slightly let down by the cafe.

J. C.

A really good place to find excellent plants and all things for gardens and outside, but also pet care, excellent books and presents for children, a coffee in the cafe and Sainsburys. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is I needed help with a purchase and i couldn't find anyone to ask for help inside and looked for a good few minutes. Eventually went outside and did get help from very helpful girl working outside.

J. L.

Plenty of garden related items and varied 'leisure' items (books, decorations, easy clothes and goodness knows what else). Small TV screens pump out advertising and bark "take it to the till now!" Annoying.

T. F.

Nice garden centre. Lovely little cafe with nice snack lunches (too late for the breakfast!). Really enjoyed the visit. Will go again.

M.

Very tasty food, nice clean, airy environment, friendly staff and good value. I really wanted to try the cakes as they looked fantastic, but only had room for the full English 🙂

D. L.

A well stocked and layed out garden centre with plenty of choice. More than just plants. Plenty of parking and easy to get to.

B. M.

Unfortunately they did not have the sandwich I wanted even though it was only 20 minutes after they started the lunchtime menu.

E. E.

Yes a great place to get all ure garden plants etc. Even got a Sainsbury and Cook Frozen meals

H. H.

Renew membership with free coffee/tea. Plants and flowers are fresh and special.

O. A. H.

Ian (hope that is his name, was on the tills at 1:30 on 23/05) is so lovely and must be treasured 🥺 10/10 for him!!!

S. M.

Lovely helpful friendly staff, wonderful selection of goods and plants. I will be back.

G. G.

Good quality garden centre with aquatics gifts and super cafe.. we had a lovely cup of tea with a rather deliciously moist bakewell slice.. 😋 lots of choice for plants, shrubs and trees plus garden ornaments and furniture 👍

b. t.

We just called in for a drink and a scone They were very tasty and we both enjoyed them

D. T.

They know how to price things, cafe is good though

C. O.

Breakfast with Santa this morning was so good. Great breakfast, santa was amazing and the kids the little hunt for the animals through the little wonderland. The elves also did a grwat job. Such a fun and enjoyable experience for big and little kids, my teenagers were also included. Super value for money, will def do this again.

S. W.

Great selection of plants & flowers. Also has an aquarium where you can buy fish for an indoor fish tank or for ponds. The restaurant & toilets are open. Hot & cold food served. You can also get afternoon tea but this has to be prebooked. Indokr has a lovely selection of gifts.

M. N.

Ok but quite expensive. Good choice of quality bedding plants but not so good for perennials.

I. H.

I shop here often as its close to my home. I recently bought a plant pot and needed to buy a second matching pot which they didn't have in stock. To cut a long story short, the manager went to a a lot of effort to source the second pot for me and the service I received was very good indeed and beyond the call of duty. The staff are all lovely and very helpful. I tend to go when its not too busy so that I can enjoy plant shopping at a quieter time.

M. L.

Great garden center but a lot of the bedding plants were out of stock so disappointed. Will meant another trip.

F. M.

Lovely Garden centre, lots of plants, bulbs, and decos.. even toys... We did go to their Grotto which was also good and them when and have a look around the place. It got an aquarium to purchase fish and itis lovely there x

E. W.

It’s always our go-to garden centre as we like the variety of plants! Plenty of choice in terms of compost too and at reasonable prices! We were only going to pick up some compost but came out spending over £50. We’ve decided to grow our own salad leaves and missed freshly grown vegetables since we gave up our allotment! So purchased a vegetable trough with a lid to grow year round salads etc. Having a Dobbies card also entitles you further discounts and offers so definitely worth getting one!!

J. H.

Great knowledge easy access and great product range. Went in specifically looking for planted roses and was directed to correct product and given advice on maintenance to someone who wanted to keep alive till Xmas day.

P. H.

Called in on a rainy day. Good place to walk around and nosey about. Bit expensive compared to other places.

F. F.

Pleasant...rather pricy but very good selection of good looking plants of all kinds. Pity that they didn't stock anything truly local like honey...only a most swish looking Sainsbury's 'franchise'!

M. C.

Lovely little garden centre. Cafe only serves light snacks and cakes as well as drinks, does not serve meals. Lovely large variety of plants.

T. W.

Lots of stuff besides plants, however very expensive to me, get the same elsewhere at better prices!

R. D.

Busy but big enough for social distancing. Cafe used, food good with friendly helpful staff. Good Latte!! Excellent selection of Christmas things.

S. L.

Little bit disappointed not enough staff on. Tables hadn't been cleared off dirty pots. But the food was ok

g. s.

All a gardener would expect even if a little expensive, cafe not very good menu

L. J.

Always get my plants from Dobbies, seem better than ever this year

A. C.

Ample stock of all you need for your garden, along with toys gifts and home products and also a small Sainsbury's. Had a lovely lunch in the restaurant and then bought things for the garden helped by vouchers from the loyalty scheme, which also gave me 10% off all plants.

P. M.

Fantastic garden centre with so much to choose from. The entire layout and design is superb and clearly the staff love and enjoy the plants. Careful just popping in for that plant cos you'll end up coming away with plenty more. 🤗

G. W.

Breakfast poor service plants ok bit pricey veg plants are good

I. F.

Very nice and pleasant. They had alot more varieties of items that you may need. The staff were very friendly and polite. The only downside was that the cafe was not serving hot food.

g. h.

Typical garden centre fare ,prices not designed to be competitive , product is of good quality.

M. S.

Good place, light and airy, very friendly and helpful staff.

G. B.

For a garden centre cafe it was very good and will go again. Menu had a good selection

K. R.

Should be 10oclock opening on Sunday not 10.30 wait long enough without making it longer on Sunday.

J. S.

A cracking garden centre and so much more, all your garden needs are served here, with an in store grocery shop.

R. W.

Varied range of goods, mostly for the garden. Theres an aquatics area inside down the back, with all sorts of stuff for ponds and tanks. Plenty of trinkets that your kids will set their hearts on having, which obviously complete their lives 😂 Now also has a small Sainsbury's outlet inside.

W. O.

Go there fairly often. There's a deal of the indoor space given over to 'accessories' which don't interest me much but outside there's a fair selection of plants. Always worth a look. Their teashop, when open, is OK.

P. L. (.

Plenty of parking spaces. Good selection of plants to look at, including a nice selection of house plants. Experience was let down by the staff struggling to re boot the tills after a crash.

L. W.

The cafe has been redecorated and its looks really clean and bright. The quality of the food and drinks has improved massively. The service was quick and the young lady who took our order was very polite and friendly. I would definitely recommend this cafe.

J. H.

Had a lovely afternoon tea today. Chef catered to my dietary needs. Food and service excellent. Social distancing and markings where very clear and made us all feel at ease. It was my friends mum birthday and the staff had put a lovely table cloth on the table to make it extra special, lovely gesture thank you

M. L.

Well organised and not too officiously managed by staff. We love the books clothes and especially the children section. The kids love to visit too. Unfortunately we didn't find what we wanted and the houseplant section was slightly limited. A nice place to shop.

C. G.

Lovely variety of products. And a fantastic cafe.

B. D.

Nice centre and lovely cafe - a little expensive though!

J. K.

Good but not cheap. Good cafe too. Don't understand why there is a Sainsbury inside but the same comment applies.

A. S.

OK sort of place, no different to the many other garden centres we visit. I am particularly looking for Burma Star Clematis so spent time ploughing through the Clematis stock without success.

S.

Nothing much to be said here.. it's a pretty standard Dobbies with a Sainsbury's add on and Maidenhead aquatics.. Ok selection but not a huge one.. you can do worse for a garden centre but also a lot better

S. C.

Garden Centre OK, bought a houseplant. There didn't seem to be many staff around when I had a couple of questions??. The day I was there the cafe was only serving drinks and cakes. The cakes seemed very expensive.

S. B.

Visited Dobbies for the first time in a while! Although quiet it was clean and tidy! Stock outside was low but very tidy! Lets hope by spring we aren't locked down and the cafe is open and we can get gardening!

A. b.

Good selection good tea room

C. R.

Some great products, for your garden, plus they have a Sainsbury in-store as well as a cafe

D. C.

Went looking for some specific Christmas decorations, which sadly they didn't have; however, was very surprised to find a Sainsbury's is now within the store.

S. B.

Went today very windy. Reasonable stock cafe OK plenty of parking. They do a loyalty card for ten pounds that gives you free tea and coffee plus 20percent off every so often.

A. O.

Lovely place never knew it had changed names again much nicer then before. The cafe was open but they have no chief so all you can get is a drink and cake.

R. F. (. A. T. L.

Top quality plants well looked after, even has original household decor with gift sets ect, pet section has a good range with all ranges of fish from tropical to outdoor koi karp, good day out to spruce up the home inside and out

N. S.

Good coffee, a very acceptable mini breakfast, cafe a little on the spartan side, and not warm enough. Perhaps because of Covid rules?

P. W.

No queue and nice lady took details and showed us to table.soon back to take our order.really nice snack and as usual good coffee.all masked up and seemed clean.on our way elsewhere so didn't look round garden centre.

B. W.

Dobbies, also known locally as Poppleton Garden Centre (PGC) is a great centre. Since Dobbies took over I've got to say the prices have levelled and most stuff is more affordable. There's a pet section, a cafe, outdoor plants (obviously!), indoor plants (seasonal indoor plants so depends on the season to what is available there), a clothes shop, a kitchen utility area and the jewel in the Crown is Maidenhead Aquatics which is right at the back of the shop which sell tropical fish, cold water fish (aquarium and pond) as well as all the supplies

G. W.

Just used the cafe. Friendly members of staff. Lovely piece of cake and nice cup of coffee. No complaints at all

M. D.

Nice garden centre as most dobbies are.

H. J.

Visited on Saturday morning. Pleased to find the cafe open and toilets. Cafe was well organised and we felt quite safe. Garden accessories a bit sparse but lots of plants. Looking forward to going again.

A. H.

Unattentive staff member on the till gave a poor impression of a well stocked centre. Directed to her by two others and ignored whilst wairing to be served and again when making payment. Older lady needs ti go on a CS course- poor.

E. S.

Good mixture of products and mini Sainsbury's

J. P.

Excellent friendly staff, nice restaurant

A. O.

Excellent range of outdoor plants and seeds. Friendly and helpful staff throughout the store. Some items seem a little pricey but you can pick up a bargain!

J. G.

Good array of plants etc and garden accessories in store.Bit expensive.Now got a small Sainsburys on site.

D. P.

But didn't have whot I was looking for.but good plants and shrubs and kitchen things .

M. S.

Dobbies sits on the outskirts of York with good roads leading to it.They have a large carpark,good entrance and space for everyone.Everything on your gardeners shopping list will be here.When you've finished walking around this huge garden centre you can relax in there café where they sell lovely coffee's and great cakes.

S. J.

Great selection in stock well worth a visit.

k. j.

It was ok - lots of outdoor plants. Selection of houseplants is few and they are expensive. Staff were friendly. All things are generally expensive here

k. k.

Expensive garden centre and small restaurant.

J. H.

Quiet and not a lot of plants,they are clearly in the in between winter and spring phase but a nice planter of primal as a Birthday gift which is what I wanted.

M. M.

Usual garden centre but tidy and clean. Nice little coffee shop, and good little supermarket.

S. P.

Excellent help and advice,,,many thanks to the young man

D. L.

Garden centre seems very nice. Had coffee and cheese scone in the cafe which was very covid friendly felt very safe. Cheese scones awful no cheese taste and sweet wont have one again.

J. C.

Beautiful Garden Center, excellent range of flowers, plants and trees...great little cafe (but waitress in charge, irritating but I know she was only doing her job...but she was treating everyone as it they were school children...

j. g.

Nice garden centre, well priced and had a good range of plants.

L. R.

Very helpful staff got what I wanted wonderful experience

M. F.

A nice garden centre ,huge stock of plants everything you need ,added bonus of a good size sainsbury inside ,and a nice cafe plants are on the pricey side but good plants .

A. S.

1st visit to a Dobbies garden centre, not disappointed

n. w.

Great place plants are fresh

D. H.

Located near york ring road with ample parking: it is in a great location. Plant selection for late August was very good. Accessories looked OK though some a bit dusty and tatty especially outside. Tried cafe which looked bright but small. Slow Slow que. Told I couldn't have fresh scone cooling from oven and tantalisingly on the counter but had to use up the ones out. It was stale. Partner tried some sort of tray bake. Said it was dry and tasteless. She thought the tea was 'ok' but my Americano was weak. Sat at table in long corridor section surrounded by uncleared tables. This was about 3pm on a Saturday. Staff were business-like if not exactly welcoming. Did not complain but just left. York is not short of places to buy a scone and coffee and this was about the worst I can remember. Overall good for location and plants. Poor for food.

J. R.

Good selection of plants . Not the cheapest , but good quality. Also love the fish shop . Lots of tools and extras but again not the cheapest

V. B.

It was great to be able to visit our local Dobbies to purchase a beautiful plant for a family member having a very special 100th Birthday early January lockdown will prevent us doing any celebrating but plants & flowers will cheer us all up Happy 2021 to all keep safe

L. B.

Really lovely healthy plants &garden accessories had a few plants from here gone on to grow very well ,not bad prices .

A. N.

Great garden centre. All plants are good and good quality. Somethings are a bit over priced . The grounds are good and tidy and there is plenty of parking spaces.

S. Q.

Good range currently in stock for planting; found a very nice tree peony that's also coming into flower.

K. W.

Small garden centre with small selection but it has coffee and great pet store inside.

a. b.

Mid season everything was a bit messy as they where unpacking there xmas Stock, always quite like the Xmas decorations so will be back, staff ok not overly friendly, its expensive but no more than other garden centres

S. P.

Great place to go for all your garden plants..lots of nice things there..bit pricey tho..some lovely animal pot ornaments for the garden.

m.

Great choice of plants and other garden items but thought it was quiet expensive compared to other garden centres.

D. C.

Looked nice and clean and very well stocked we didn't have a drink or meal but what we saw being served looked delicious

D. M.

I have always found this place excellent. However some of the check out operators are in a world of their own. Why one was stood at the check out chatting and I waited . The other person eventually left and I went to cash desk and she told me the cash till was closed. I was not amused and told her so.

H. C.

There is a lot of variety in this garden centre. The coffee shop was quite busy, but I thought a little expensive (cakes). Some good and original products for sale in the actual garden centre.

M. H.

Very well equipped both indoor & outdoor , a little pricey but great experience !

A. W.

We had a good lunch, well managed with regard to covid. A good selection of plants.

A. S.

Had a very nice sandwich and although they said there was a 25 minute wait it was only about 10 minutes my friend had ham egg and chips which she also enjoyed we hadn't been for a while and we were surprised by all the changes inside several new outlets and we were pleased to see Bon marche outlet was still there

T. L.

Great customer service from Lee at Maidenhead Aquatics within Dobbies York. A very helpful and knowledgeable guy. Looking forward to seeing the £300 tank purchased up and running.

L. H.

Went to buy a vegepod had what we needed we would shop again

A. S.

Great staff friendly and helpful, good deals, great selection.

N. S.

Just went for a look around while waiting for my car valeting. Plenty to see if a lot of things overpriced

J. R.

We have been today for seeds & compost, while there we asked about a orchid we have that's not doing well, the staff member was very knowledgeable and explained what we needed to do

I. B.

Only had coffee which was rather weak in taste. Only other purchase was a bagel on compost which was more expensive than other local garden centres

K. H.

Lovely garden centre. Enrolled in Dobbies plus card enjoyed the discount and free coffee once a month

G. C.

Compared to Dobbies in other places this one underwhelms. Not the enjoyable retail experience I would expect, somehow feels temporary and under invested

G. C.

OK....I suppose ...I found that the 10Lchicken manure was only £11.99 @ Browns nurseys in Wigginton ...which cheesed me off a bit

M. H.

Nothing exciting, not much of interest and not great value. I think Dean's and Vertigrow are better, Browns is much better value.

J. M.

Very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly staff. The whole store is laid out well including lots of attractive displays.

A. M.

Great range of products, especially plants.

G. B.

Great garden centre, dog friendly with a nice cafe, also selling a variety of other things. We'll worth a visit

S. B.

Lovely place to stop off ay

P. B.

Only went in today to use the cafe. It's really well set out to comply with social distancing regulations. Really enjoyed the visit

L. h.

The place has a good selection of indoor and outdoor plants. I had an overall happy time here but some of the staff were not very helpful.

L. L.

Great choice for tropical fish. I'd been looking for Horse Face Loaches for a while and they had some.

H. C.

Just popped in just to check christmas gifts. Found a lovely bonmarche there shame it's not advertised anywhere. Great customer service from bonmarche will go again. 😁

B. T.

Went for compost, came away with some more bedding plant bargains and milk from the pop up sainsbury's, in store!

L. H.

Cafe was not table service. Also staff moved 12 tables around us, not the peaceful coffee and cake we had intended.

G. L.

Very friendly and knowledgable staff! Thank you

C. W.

Very good deals to be had here. Lots of things reduced, including food items like lentils and chick peas.

C. L.

Good garden centre nice cafe staff very helpful.

D. P.

No clean place. Good selection of plants, reasonably priced.

P. B.

Huge garden centre, with good range of plants and outdoor pots. Also has a range of homeware goods inside.

E. F.

Nice restaurant, good value. The plants are really good value

R. L.

More expensive since taken over in 2019. However they do regularly discount lines and cafe service and quality decent for the money.

T. B.

Very friendly staff, very nice hot chocolate and coffee, excellent cakes (massive Viennese whirl! ) 😄

Y. a.

Nice selection of plants and other necessities, fantastic cafe highly recommend

L. P.

Great range of plants at good prices - particularly with membership

G. M.

Was bit disappointed went to have our 2 for 1 scones but they said only Friday Saturday and Sunday but when I came home and re-read the voucher it never mentioned that at all . Why?
