Despite this, our food and drinks came out fairly quickly, and we received a free refill of our coffee to apologise for the wait time (despite the fact we weren't inconvenienced by any means). It was so lovely of them to do this, and the staff have always been delightful any other time I've visited

Waited ages on a table (not particularly busy 2pm ish), service so slow and disorganised. My garden platter was freezing, the scotch egg centre was frozen and other items too. Disgusting and l complained. Eventually they waived the bill but I'll never be back, ruined a lovely afternoon. These kids they've took on need proper training and management.

The food and service were excellent and a surprise hot chocolate and mince pie rounded it off nicely. Then had time to look round the retail and garden centre with a ten percent off card! Very good visit

The outside is very deceptive as it has an abundance of shops within the premises. I always go to Menarys to see their Christmas decorations and was pleasantly surprised that they had a sale on so came away with a few stand alone ones and a hot water bottle. There is a lot of merchandise for such a small space which was evident when they were unboxing products. We stopped in at the cafe. You have to stand at the front to be seated. Lovely staff who kindly assisted my mum as she has walking aids. Loved my toastie and my mum must have loved her all day fry judging by the empty plate. It got really busy around 12.30 so I can understand the suggested 1 hour table stay. Quite a variety of food beverages and treat choices although charging 40p for a small soya serving of milk with my tea was a little excessive. Might look for a compromise there? Clean throughout and would recommend a visit if you were in the area.
