I went in sooo hungry about 1.30pm as I couldn't find any gluten-free options anywhere, and was very happy to see a good selection. I got a delicious,giant brunch (or was it breakfast?) muffin with egg, bacon, and hollandaise, as well as a slice of caramel and white chocolate cheesecake, which tasted absolutely divine! It was huge, too, and I just finished it off after dinner for dessert. Thanks so much for having great gluten-free options rather than just the obligatory chocolate brownie or caramel slice that most cafes have. I think I'll pop in tomorrow before we leave to get some more cheesecake!

Really good coffee and a great selection of gluten free food. I had a frittata, which was tasty, but I’d probably try something off the menu next time. The gf yo-yo was delicious!

I loved the great gluten free slices, special mention to the raspberry chocolate slice. The veg frittata was also very good, and the person working there was so lovely and helpful

Friendly helpful staff. Appreciate them working on Boxing Day Sunday. Gluten-free food judged delicious by Granddaughters. Nice location. No vermin sparrows (unlike some other garden centre cafes). Coffee could be hotter, will clarify my needs next visit.
