1st time for lunch & managed to get the last Speical of the day (Pork). Don’t expect Michelin ⭐ cuisine given it’s a cafe in a Garden centre but was enjoyable & I’d recommend it!

We stopped here for lunch, and I had the bacon and mushroom quiche, which was delicious and came with a generous amount of salad. I’d recommend arriving earlier, as some options were low or out of stock. There’s plenty of seating, the atmosphere is lovely, and the staff were helpful and welcoming. I’d definitely go back—just earlier next time to make it for the lunch special!
