"I have visited here off and on for many years. Visually this is the most incredible place. It’s my Nirvana! A collection of stunning home accessories and wares, plants and statement feature pieces for the garden. During Covid their inspiration to make separate dining areas visually stunning themed areas that have to be seen to be believed to hire and dine as a family/ friends unit was nothing short of ingenious. I have had some good and mediocre experiences with the restaurant/ cafe. Usually compounded by the popularity and business on the day. I wanted to bring a friend there today because I love this place due to the aforementioned. And it’s a unique and beautiful place. I had intended we’d eat there . But having looked at recent reviews thought we’d go there for the aesthetics and move on somewhere else to eat and chill. Once we’d done our recce and we’d both spent an unexpected substantial amount on things we’d fallen in love with!!! we’d seen the plates of food coming out the kitchen. Despite the many recent negative reviews we thought it worth a try. The food was plentiful, good quality, well cooked and presented. It tasted great. The staff were busy but exhibited exceptional customer service. Our experience today was superb. Both on customer service from our purchases some which required delivery the information from staff regarding products ranging from the garden accessories, plants, the exceptional Blooms body/bath/ scent range was faultless. This is a great place. With great staff."

The food at this restaurant was beautifully presented, fitting perfectly with the Wonderland theme. However, there were a few key elements missing from the cream tea, such as cream and jam for the scones. The highlight of the experience was the interactive game between the eccentric hatmaker and Alice. Overall, it was a fun dining experience suitable for all ages.

Surprised to see so many bad reviews as this is my go-to place for family and friends meet-ups. Had brunch a couple of times. They were fine. Absolutely love the cakes here. Delicious and generous portion. Been many times and no disappointment. Also enjoy seeing plants, birds, fish, home and garden stuff, and the little aquarium in the Nature Collective. Good for children too!

I celebrated my 50th birthday at this restaurant, which had only been open for two weeks, and it was phenomenal! The room was stunning, with a fantastic selection of menu items and cocktails. The staff were extremely helpful from the moment I made the reservation until the day of the event. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone, both those looking for a new dining experience and those seeking a more intimate setting in the secret garden room. Kudos to the entire team for creating such beautiful spaces.

The coffees served were not what we ordered but after a long wait, eventually served by a sour faced member of staff, we could not bother to complain. Mainly visited for garden compost, only very large bags available, and plants which were very overpriced, so did not buy. How I wish Arturi still owned this nursery , it was so lovely to pick your own strawberries and raspberries as well as selling fresh vegetables. The meals served were cooked to perfection, excellent value and all the staff helpful and friendly, the exact opposite of what it is now.

We visited the Garden Society for lunch, a treat for a close friend. I was informed when ordering that the food could take up to 30 as it was very busy which I was happy to accept. We had a lovely young waitress who could not have done more. Unfortunately the food took almost 50 minutes to arrive, my meal was Disappointing but my friends Fish Chips had the saddest looking piece of fish I have seen in a long time!!! It was small, and looked like it had been cooked in an oven, the batter was awful and fish really dry!! Very very disappointing as I used to really enjoy the food an ambiance Of the Garden Society. I won’t be back in a hurry.

I was given a voucher for afternoon tea for two which I booked on line. It was very expensive at £44 each so we expected something special. The room we were shown to was huge and lacked any charm there was a big stage in the middle of the room with four enormous fans on top. One other couple sat near us. The waitress brought our one glass of Prosecco and the sweet and savoury items. Nothing was out of the ordinary and was certainly not worth the price. We ordered coffee instead of tea but had to look for the waitress for a top up and more cutlery. After that she disappeared and sat with her back to us chatting with other staff members not even noticing when we were leaving. It was a miserabl...
