Pity Me Nursery - Durham

At the arrival there were several parking places that led from the entrance, we found a space without problems. the caffe was pretty busy (we arrived at 1 o'clock), but we sat quickly the staff seemed very friendly. I could add that the personal all wearing masks there was a very good kovid policy on site. that eating was reasonable price both our meals were good quality. my only grip was the timing our eating arrived. my partner ordered quiche, I had cake. my cake came with the drinks (tee) my partner arrived well ten minutes later. I am not worried about the waiting period (as the caffe was quite busy), it is a good practice to bring both meals together! the selection of plants was decent I was quite trying to buy a small tree fern. Overall, I would definitely recommend a visit, remember that the exit is a way system when they leave the parking lot.

Great well maintained for plants, something for every gardener, excellent value and a large caffe serves freshly prepared sandwiches, jack kartoffels, homemade quiches pie very seductive cake baked. friendly service, nothing to fall down here! highly recommended

Since we moved back to Durham in Nov 2019 we have been regular weekly visitors, especially when lockdown occured in March 2020. They really came into their own, we loved our take outs, sitting in the car picnicking! We have bought loads of plants trees, especially bamboo! Conifers, Pansy's, Pavier, Privet, dianthus manure! They have an amazing display of plants, plus garden barrels. We return twice weekly despite the cafe now open we love our take outs in the car. Well done Pity Me Nursery for diversity in these difficult times.

Dog friendly, great range of plants which were priced very competitively. We shall certainly be coming back and buying lots for our garden reno! The cafe had a huge queue outside so must be good!

I absolutely love this place! The plants are very affordable, and buying in bulk makes them even cheaper. Occasionally, the plants might look a bit worn, but that’s reflected in the price. I've been able to plant my entire garden over the past three years, including shrubs, grasses, and border plants, and the results have been fantastic. I purchased daffodils in early 2016 for a great price since they were done blooming, and they keep coming back year after year. The lovely tea room is definitely worth a stop as well!
