Such a big improvement from Van Hage.
The coffee was always (to me,) disgusting. It's such an improvement and the fresh baked scones are a diabolical temptation which we can not resist. (I'm so weak it makes me ashamed!!!) The lunchtime menu is good with a nice selection to choose from.
If you're on a diet don't go! We're on a diet but as I said I am so weak it makes me ashamed .... will go again and again.

Good coffee and an excellent range of cakes at reasonable prices. Setting is light and airy and the service is friendly and helpful. Well worth a visit.

I wasn't too impressed with the cafe, but maybe it was just me having an off day. However, the garden centre was amazing. Helpful staff on hand and what a fantastic collection of just about everything you'll ever need for your garden. I was blown away by the number of healthy plants and trees they have on show. We'll done guys.

Really like the new refurbishment since it became blue diamond. Very organised and lots to look at. The cafe and restaurant are nice and lovely to sit in with a tree in the middle. So glad they have free from cakes too which was great.

Since the revamp this is a pleasant place to stop off and have afternoon tea. It's within a shopping complex and garden centre. It's unique with a high clear roof and the tables are spaced out so you don't feel crowded

Can see a big difference since taken over by Blue Diamond. Very nicely laid out store with goods at fair prices & friendly staff. Both indoor & outdoor plants are well looked after,presented nicely & realistically priced. Restaurant menu has a sensible variety of nice plated food & cakes at average prices. Look forward to my next visit.

Went for breakfast as a family of 4. We had vouchers which were buy 1 get 1 free. Both the service & the food was very good. I had the vegetarian option which was sooo good. We will definitely eat here again.

This has changed to a diamond run garden centre. Food was good table service once uve ordered so no cold meals or tea as b4 when you had to queue while your food got cold. Looking forward to a visit once its all complete.

Large garden centre, with gifts and household items too. Large cafe with good range of good coffee and food. Cafe layout is a bit poor, as you 9nly notice half of their food offerings 9nce you have checked out, as they are located away from the counter. Easily accessible, with good parking.
