Your Local Garden Centre

Called into Mappleborough Garden Centre visited the section with the wild bird food that was on offer that was very pleasing making the journey worth while a lovely place to walk around with many item that are not found in othe outlets Well worth visiting.

Visited Mapplebourgh Green Garden centre looking for an item I have been searching for sometime my luck was in because the item was on offer A very clean and tidy Garden centre with a large range of merchandise they have a loyalty card scheme that gives points on items bought then can be used with money off items purchased. The toilets are spotlessly clean. And the Gardeners Kitchen served a lovely latte at a very reasonable price.

Sadly, on this visit to the restaurant we were unhappy with our food. Presentation and incorrect labelling of baguette and wrap has led to a negative review. Maybe this was a one off and we will return, but avoid these items. We saw some really lovely food on other people's plates as we went out!

We have used the restaurant a lot over the years. The 7 and 10 piece breakfasts represent good value however, the other day my wife and I went for breakfast. I didn't fancy the full works and when the lady in front of me asked for a sausage, bacon and egg sandwich, I thought that would be about right. What turned up was very disappointing. A sandwich with one sausage hacked in half on one side, a rasher of bacon on the other and an egg across the top. So, technically as described, but a very poor offering compared to what I have had for the same price in nearby garden centres. My wife ordered a toasted ham and cheese sandwich. It sounded a bit pricy, but when I went to collect it (because I think they had forgotten about it) it came with salad and crisps. This was meant to be a part of the breakfast offering, so just the sandwich and a bit cheaper would have been better. In the end my wife pulled out most of the ham which was very poor quality and full of gristle. All in all, the best part of 20 quid for a very poor offering.

Chose the roast beef lunch. The Yorkshire puddings were awful as some herb was added to the batter, since when does Yorkshire pudding have herbs in them? Roast potatoes were really bland. Parsnips obviously frozen as they were inedible, you needed a saw to cut them. Peas were like bullets and to top it all the gravy was tasteless as well. All this cost £12.95. Will never go there for lunch again. Toby carvery far better value.
