"We popped a across the water from Dartmouth to have a look around and pick up some slate. As I am on a disability scooter I am a little restricted and we did not get as far as the section that housed the bags of stones, however I knew what I wanted so a very helpful staff memeber/gentleman offered to get them and take them to the tills. So we bought a few bedding plants and bulbs and headed for the cafe. Unfortunately the coffee machine was just being commissioned with the staff learning how to use it. We said we would wait and have a Cheese Scone whilst waiting as we were told it would only be 10 mins or less. It turned out to be nearly 20 but we were happy to wait. The Scones where delicious and pretty big. We had finished when Donna came across to ask if we still required a hot drink and would we be happy to be Guinea pigs. We asked for Mocha and soon after they arrived one was a full mug the other not so but this was the 1st 2 cups out and obviously the second mug was correct ratio etc. We both enjoyed and commented how nice they were although a little sweet for us. Probably one of the best we've had. So congrats on getting a superb machine and what a pleasant experience with friendly staff. Thanks Donna. When we got to the checkout our bags of slate were ready and a young lady brought them to the car and even put them in the bot for me. Thank you."

Roast dinners in the “cafe” were excellent, we will certainly be back again soon. probably best to book at present because there are fewer tables due to COVID

This is the old styles centre, a little dearer, but good selection, staff ok, but won’t help unless u ask, car park on a hill, be careful, cafe there too, a little expensive for what it is, but worth a coffee

I've ate here a few times for lunch with my wife and her mother. The food has always been nice, (sometimes the wait can be a bit long). However, the staff are friendly and if its not raining, its lovely to sit outside and take in the great views. Ver carta

We had Sunday lunch in the conservatory, main window catch broken, window closed--temperature must have been about 35 degrees. The good selection of vegetables were nicely cooked but the roast beef was almost inedible--there is tough and there is tough--this was very tough so we will not do Sunday lunch again.

The Panini was tasty, but the sight of a small green caterpillar in my salad was enough to ruin my appetite. Additionally, we had to clean up the previous customers' dishes before we could even sit down. I'm not sure why I keep coming back here, maybe just for the view. Today will definitely be my final visit.

We decided to have coffee and cake in here for the first time in a while but were rather disappointed with the coffee. Coffee used to be lovely here; nice and hot and well made, but now just out of one of those 'press the button ' machines. What a shame, as the cake was lovely, but spoilt by not-very-hot average coffee, at not-a-very-average price! Ver carta

The garden center is located in a beautiful rural area just outside of Paignton/Torquay. We have visited about twelve times since Otter took over the nursery. The quality of the plants, shrubs, and trees meets our expectations for a good garden center. The restaurant, while small, is sufficient for a nice lunch or coffee and cake. Kudos to the staff at Otter, especially during these difficult times.

I arrived at the restaurant and found the car park to be full, so I expected the cafe to be busy with a queue. Surprisingly, there was no queue and I was seated right away. Drinks and food were ordered quickly, and within ten minutes, 3 bacon and egg sandwiches and a tuna sandwich were brought to our table. The food was excellent and the cafe had a one-way system in place which worked well. Some tables were a bit close together, especially when four people were seated at one table and one person was standing for a while, encroaching on a nearby table. However, the rest of the cafe was spacious and of a good standard for a garden center restaurant.

"The positive is that the food is good. But the negative is the service time and the attitude of the staff. We were seated and had our order taken after 20 minutes. A little slow but it was a busy Saturday evening so understandable. Starters came promptly and were eaten. We then got ignored by every passing member of staff for at least 50 minutes. Quite the skill! Once there was a break in our conversation and I realised how long it had been, I stood up to intercept a waitress and asked “are our mains on the way, please?” Our ticket was checked by her at the kitchen hatch and we were told “yes”. At this point our starter plates were cleared after they had sat on the table for at least 35 minutes. Our mains then took another 25 minutes to get to us, so I suspect that being told they were on their way was a lie. To be clear: we were given our mains 1hr 20 mins after placing our order. I complained to a waitress who sent over a manager. The manager asked if we’d had starters (yes, we had) and said that it was our fault our main was so late as we’d had a first course. How insulting!!! Blaming the customer for their bad service. Disgusting. When I said it was still far too long to wait between courses she then changed tack and said the kitchen was “really really busy” well, they weren’t busy cooking our food now were they?! And despite the place being full when we arrived, by this point of the night over half the tables were empty. There were 3 tickets on the pass along with ours and tables were 2 4 people (no large groups) so I feel that was also another lie to get out of it. What a shocking way to treat customers! My advice to you is: if you want your food served in a timely manner, either take the advice of the manager and don’t order a starter, or, be sure to communicate with waitstaff once your first course is finished and ask for your main to be cooked and served promptly. (Note: food also sat under the heat lamps for long lengths of time as staff stood socialising with one another behind the bar rather than serve customers) I hope this advice is of use as I would have appreciated it ahead of my visit! Good luck. [Reading other reviews, ours is not the only experience of slow service and seeing staff chat to one another rather than deal with the customers paying their wages. Would be interested to receive a reply to this review]"
