The restaurant was not busy but were told there was half an hour wait on food which we accepted. Ended up waiting just over an hour. Other customers were complaining about the wait and it was upto a waitress to explain what was going on. Not enough staff. Not impressed.

Ordered food at 12:10 as soon as they started hot food. 50minutes later we got our food. With a 3year old and a baby impatiently waiting we received my daughter jacket potato and then had to wait for two fish and chips which came a good 5 minutes later. When it did arrive we I had 8 chips on my plate with a very overcooked fish which was the worst fish I?ve ever had. It was 80% batter and 20% very overcooked fish (spot the fish in the photo because I had a job to find it) I certainly wouldn?t mind waiting this long for food if it was a good quality but I?d have had better food at a local fast food restaurant for a fraction of the price. Also not sure why when ordering I was asked how many people were at my table to which I replied ?2 adults 2 children? to which the woman replied sarcastically ?so 4then?. I then explained that one is only 4 months and she then again said sarcastically ?well will they be eating??. I still have no idea why this was even asked. They really need to sort out the quality and service because it?s certainly not the cheapest place to eat. Not that quality of service should justify the price as this should be standard but you?d expect more from the quality of food.

Food was ok, over priced. Waiting 30 minites for egg on toast for 2 people is rediculous! The restaurant was not that busy. I wish I had gone elsewhere to pay less and get served quicker! I will not be coming back!

I wasn't too impressed with the cafe, but maybe it was just me having an off day. However, the garden centre was amazing. Helpful staff on hand and what a fantastic collection of just about everything you'll ever need for your garden. I was blown away by the number of healthy plants and trees they have on show. We'll done guys.

Food was terrible. I don't know how they can justify £12 for a wrap. You get hardly anything and the wraps are tiny. Completely bland as well. I'd never return.Staff very friendly, atmosphere great, but food was blummin awful.

It's a big garden centre with a nice restaurant. Quite expensive but we'll worth a visit.

Very poor 1st ordered brown multi seed roll ham with salad and beetroot piccalilli NO NO NO it was just yellow piccalilli. When questioned the head chef was asked who said the beetroot was in the piccalilli NO NO NO it was yellow no beetroot colour. A baguette was replace for the seeded roll again the seeds we supposed to be in it NO NO NO. 2nd one on white stale baguette the same filling. Both came with salad one was substituted from salad to chips £2.50 extra for 9 cold chips in a plant pot. No dressing on the salad £28.60 was the total cost. The garden centre has been revamped but the food as before the revamp very very poor. WILL NOT EAT HERE AGAIN

Such a big improvement from Van Hage.The coffee was always (to me,) disgusting. It's such an improvement and the fresh baked scones are a diabolical temptation which we can not resist. (I'm so weak it makes me ashamed!!!) The lunchtime menu is good with a nice selection to choose from.If you're on a diet don't go! We're on a diet but as I said I am so weak it makes me ashamed .... will go again and again.

Good coffee and an excellent range of cakes at reasonable prices. Setting is light and airy and the service is friendly and helpful. Well worth a visit.

Walked in on Sunday for breakfast, the kitchen wasn?t open, which can happen. I feel that something should be done to compensate instead?

Waited half an hour for cold hard pancakes and a lukewarm full English. Recovered well with a refund and a very nice sandwich in exchange. The full English would have been good if hot as the ingredients tasted good. I?ll try the lunch menu if I go again.

Restaurant looks impressive after the makeover. Like the seating bays near the cake n coffee bar. Menu very ordinary and quite pricey too. Staff very obliging. Nice to have waitress service after ordering at the till
