Absolutely lovely location, set in beautiful countryside of Royal Deeside. Perfect place for cup of tea and cake. Lovely lunch choices, however ordering and ques was little confusing - you have to pick table number first then que to order, when busy and solo with kids it’s hard. Only concern is of the ladies when ordering isn’t very pleasant, could do with some more customer service training. Otherwise lovely friendly staff all around. Great choice of goodies in the shop, handy to have milk for the local customer also!! 8/10
I recommend you to visit The Mains of Drum if you want to spend a pleasant time and also if you'd like to have something to eat. Clean, quiet and relaxing place to visit. The staff is knowledgeable, kind and helpful! It's near Crathes Castle, just 10 minutes of driving. Beautiful place and beautiful people ❤️, we love it.
A standard modern garden centre. With a nice cafe. The scones were delicious.
Nicely laid out, good parking and toilet facilities. Nice grounds. Cafe very efficiently run with good menu and well cooked nicely presented food. Pleasant helpful staff. Others could learn!
Had expected hot food to be placed on dishes from hot plates. But no, hot food was brought to tables directly from the kitchen. This meant that it was piping hot. We had Roast Beef, it was excellent and tender. Good quantity of vegetables and a generous portion of roast potatoes. It was reasonably priced. We will certainly be returning.

Lovely shopping in this garden centre...and the best tea and scone I've had this week!
Afternoon tea is highly recommended. Great choice of sandwiches etc. Tea and coffee topped up. Very pleasant, attentive staff.
Every time I'm in Scotland, thats my must-visit place I absolutely love. It offers excellent food, incredibly friendly and kind staff, and the best shopping experiences. Its a truly unique and extraordinary place that I wholeheartedly recommend to everyone!
Plenty of lovely gift ideas and all things Christmas available. A bright, clean cafe, with a good menu and friendly staff.
We popped in 15 minutes before the cafe / restaurant closed for a coffee, still quite busy. Staff were friendly and service was good. Nice shop as well for a wander after coffee. 2 x lattes & 2 x tray bakes £12, maybe slightly on dearer side but still good.
