Really pleased

Been meaning to write this for a while. the plant staff was friendly and knew exactly what they were doing. Christmas display is worth the trip on its own. Proper old fashioned service. Cant recommend them enough.

Superb

Was a bit nervous about the shrubs for the front to be honest. Good value, spent £70 and came away with a car full. Would have paid more to be honest.

Top marks

Recommended by a friend and glad I listened. Plants are far healthier than the DIY sheds and not much dearer. Went above and beyond really. Proper service

Cant fault them

Honest review, nobody asked me to write this. Loaded three bags of compost into the car for me without asking. Plants are far healthier than the DIY sheds and not much dearer. Top company.

Thank you

Cant fault them. the cafe team knew exactly which bedding plants would cope with our clay soil. Turned up when they said they would. Cant recommend them enough.

Not great

Prices have gone silly. £10 for a small apple tree you can get for a third elsewhere.

Hi Priya, sorry the final cost was more than you expected. We should have explained the extra work before doing it. Please contact us and we will go through the invoice with you.

Ok in the end

the owner was helpful. The rest of the process was a bit slow. Would probably still use them again though.

Faultless

Used them for a olive tree and then again for another one. Cafe does a cracking breakfast. No pressure, no upselling, just good honest service. Will be back.
