Shades Of Green Coffee Shop

The cafe prices are ludicrous. £3.45 for a toasted tea cake with barely any fruit in it is ridiculous as is a fiver for two cups of tea and £9 for a cooked breakfast!! The staff are not the most pleasant either. Sadly the shop and garden centre prices are way off the scale too compared to most other garden centres. Definitely would not recommend or revisit.

Have been here a few times but the last twice we have found the staff very unwelcoming to the point that it feels like a hassle to serve you. We arrived today at 3pm (closes at 4pm) and we were met with 4 members of staff who looked fuming that we had arrived and wanted hot drinks. Not impressed.

Cafe full but everyone had their coats on. The cafe was very cold and uncomfortable. No heaters above switched on. Food was nothing special. £7.25 for a cheese toastie with a little salad. The bread was so thin and crispy and felt like it could be used as a spatula to apply plaster to a wall. Love the garden centre but won’t rush back for food.

I bought two roast beef dinners to go and they were delicious. The meal was fresh and there was plenty of it. The beef was tender and flavorful, I couldn't find any faults with it.

The staff at the cafe do not seem to appreciate their customers. When they are not loudly joking and laughing like hyenas at a table, their service comes off as resentful. I can only assume that they must be family, as this kind of attitude is detrimental to the business. I will not be returning, as there are plenty of other options available.
