Riverside Garden Centre And Cafe

Just visited again, really nice selection friendly staff. Didn't use the cafe this time but have done in the past and have had nice snacks. Bought a great plant and pot. The lady on the checkout till was very friendly and helpful. Not as big as some centres but very friendly with great plants and lovely selection of indoor plants and pots.

I enjoyed this Garden center. An out of town experience in the town. The site is well stocked and the plants are well presented and cared for as living produce rather than bulk stacked and racked until they die. Prices competative and a pleasant Cafe with equal care for humans spacing... So it's sad I can't afford to go there anymore as it is now within the CAV zone. My smelly diesal ( for which there is adequate free parking ) would cost £9 and the bus is £5 there and back again. A dissapointment for me. I hope they thrive with a flurry of Tesla drivers.

I travel past a very large Garden Centre to come to Riverside i enjoy it so much. Its small but has an enormous stock of always interesting plants and of course as others have mentioned a lovely little cafe. Lots of cakes and coffees , not much hot food but if you want a big meal go to the huge corporate GC i pass by to get to this very friendly and welcoming centre

We stopped at the café within the Garden Centre and it is well worth a review. It was a sunny day so we ate outside and the kids got to play on and off in the small play park. The food was simply delicious and value for money. A mix of hearty homemade dishes along more convenient options (great for the kids). Service was impeccable and very friendly. TL;DR - highly recommended for parents with young children. Great food. Convenient location. Amazing service.

Good sized garden centre with a good variety of plants, indoor and out. Staff very friendly, making conversation. Great selection of pots of varying prices, sizes and makes. Wide selection of seeds and bird feed. The cactus and succulent selection is also very good. The cafe here is lovely, providing decaf options, and alternatives to milk. The decaf latte and flat white were some of the nicest coffees we've had. Good selection of cakes and cold drinks. Plenty of parking for a small space. The toilets are very clean and easily accessible.
