Friendly staff, and very accomodating. Amazing selection of cakes, which tasted fresh and baked to perfection. The only down side is that they were only able to offer me filter coffee, which although plentiful, I would have preferred a freshly brewed cup, thus the 4 star review. I imagine this is only a short term issue. Otherwise, a great place, and I would happily return, or recommend going there

Visited today, spent 10 minutes on site and left. Virtually all plants outside on stands were highly distressed and slowly dying! They had not been watered at all. We were approached by I assume the owner as we were about to depart and asked why we had turned around and were leaving. This person was advised all there plants were dying and literally crying out for help. The reply was 'I know'. So if dead or dying is your happy place you'll not be disappointed !!!

Great independent garden centre, quirky shop and tearoom.
We had a lovely cuppa and cake earlier and chats with the owners. Very nice too.
Support the independents is key!
We will be back for sure.

Called in on the off chance that they sold cut flowers, they didn’t 😞 however, the very kind gentleman that was at the till, arranged for some to be cut for me to put on not one but two graves in remembrance of some very dearly departed loved ones. Thank you so much. (Roses were from a garden)

Lovely little find. Would recommend the cafe. Small selection and very friendly staff to help. Love the idea of seating in the garden plants area, which gives a very relaxing atmosphere.

The coffee was gritty, the sugar had solidified in the sachets. When I asked about food options there was a response that they didn’t offer them before 12pm and then I was handed one menu (a dirty piece of a4 paper) that we had to share between us and the other tables. It was cold despite the log fire and the staff were loudly talking about a member of staff who had been fired in a derogatory way.

Visited today for the 1st time. The owners are lovely, really helpful, knowledgeable and happy to chat about anything and everything plants. The plants are healthy and a very reasonable price. Love the fact that all plants being bought in for sale are bee friendly!
The coffee shop also serves amazing food and the coffee cake was huge!
We will be back for more plants!

Funny little place. Staff were really nice and helpful. Gifts in the shop are quite expensive. We had a really nice lunch but restaurant area and toilet is very run down and tatty. Could definitely do with some decorating. Dust the cobwebs away too!

A great garden centre with a lovely newly extended café serving very good quality light lunches and superb cakes! Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable re plants. I love garden centres like this, so much better than the oversized and overpriced Wyevales and the like.
The plants they sell are of a very good quality and are not expensive compared with other garden centres around Romsey.
