The Mill At Millbrook - Dartford

I agree with a lot of reviewers, this has gone down ever since the cafe moved elsewhere and now looks like a canteen. I used to love going to the old one although it was overpriced already then. Even this review page comes up with a picture of a drab training centre with tables as their only advertisement? Come on. You can do better. With all the plants available?!

Visited Millbrook garden centre today and feel totally robbed on arrival cakes in the open food fridge uncovered with a fly sat on one.staff seem very run down and unenthusiastic food was poor and very over priced.how do the old folk in the area afford these prices will not be returning.

We visit the cafe often as it makes a very good meeting place with of course the bonus of nice cake and fabulous plants. Today was not a good day to go as they are having some work on the buliding.My goodness was it noisy! They were working on the roof right above our heads made it almost impossible to hear ourselves talk. Anyway we did call the manager over who we have to say was very opologetic after listerning to our moaning he offered us a complimentary drink which we accepted .Julie who served us again said how sorry she was which was a lovely way for them to address our complaint . Will go again but may wait until the work is completed.

A group of six of us were in the garden centre planning a proposed landscaping job for the family. One of the group said the cafe made great cake so we stopped shopping and had a light snack. There was a good range of cakes, sandwiches, scones and biscuits. We noted there was breakfast available (this was 11:00am), the pot of tea and various coffees were also of good quality. We were pleasantly surprised at the range and quality for a garden centre.

We have always enjoyed the nice cafe and although there have been past hicups we still go back.Obvouisly thing have had to change due to Covid 19. i cant work out why we can no longer have a pot of tea. The reason given was to cut down on extra handling which I kind of get but in that case why cant the tea pots be placed where the self service mugs are and we can make our own. Seems simple to me. Also find it frustrating that its card only. When did cash not be legal tender! Maybe someone forgot to tell me!
