Description

Dobbies restaurant has become a focal point for feedback, showcasing a stark contrast in guest experiences. While some patrons appreciate the helpful staff and the well-stocked shop, many lament long wait times and underwhelming food quality. Comments about disorganization and unmotivated service staff have surfaced, making visits frustrating for some; instances of receiving incorrect orders and poorly presented food have left a significant impact. Despite pockets of positive reviews highlighting friendly service and enjoyable meals, the restaurant appears to struggle with consistency. For those seeking a dependable dining experience, caution is advised.

We enjoy going to the garden centre and take advantage of our Dobbies Loyalty Card, which offers us a free coffee at the restaurant. The only downside is the long line to get a coffee, so often we end up not bothering to get one. We're not sure if we'll renew our membership next year.

Recently visited for lunch. What a awful experience. Hardly anything left for lunch (it was lunchtime) staff couldn't be bothered, moaning etc. Where they served our coffee, there was spilt milk on the counter but just pushed our cups through it. I ordered an egg sandwich, my husband a coronation chicken. They used the knife on my husbands sandwich to cut mine. Good job I'm not vegetarian! The drinking glasess and cutlery were filthy. Never again, disgusting hygiene standards.
