Walled Garden - Carta

We love to come to the garden centre cafe and have coffee and cake and it has always been lovely, so this morning, we decided on the spur of the moment to try their cooked breakfast. To say we were disappointed was an understatement! It...

Great prawn mayonnaise sandwiches earl grey tea for lunch. Sat outside which was a bit chilly but service was great. There was a queue to get in but it moved quickly. Felt safe in current pandemic. Cakes looked amazing. Will definitely return.

I visited with my partner and two young children for lunch during a day out at the garden centre. We ordered our food which sounded quite appetising. I was looking forward to a salmon salad with all the trimmings and my partner ordered a pulled... Ver carta

Since reopening after lockdown, and now having to have table service, there is a queue outside to get track trace details etc, but once seated all good service resumed. Service excellent and actually prefer the table service as I found things to be...

The restaurant was quite crowded on Halloween, but we didn't have to wait long for our food. The dishes were delicious, although the portion sizes were on the larger side. The cream scones we had for dessert were huge, but absolutely delicious. We would definitely return to this restaurant.

Visited whilst at the garden centre. Covid restrictions still on. Lots of sanitising and spacing. Menu has a good variety of dishes. Ordering is at the till then food is delivered to your table. food ordered was very good, chicken ceasar and salmon niscoise. Decent porions and tasty. The cake selection looked very good but we didn't indulge. Very happy with our visit. Ver carta

I have been to The Walled Garden twice and both times have been disappointing. The service is awful, as you have to wait in line to order at the counter. Even though there are two counters, only one takes hot food orders, resulting in slow and inefficient service. I waited over 20 minutes on a Sunday morning just to place my order. It would be preferable (and safer in terms of Covid precautions) if they had table service instead. The hot drinks and food are mediocre at best and not worth the long wait to order.

We went for a family lunch on 25th June and following a long wait outside we eventually got a table. My wife decided to cue to place our food order, which was fish and chips and burgers. After nearly an hour in the cue followed by another 45mins we finally got our food. Well, the fish and chips were utterly disgusting and the worst fish and chips we have ever had. The burgers were not much better. The staff were very rude and felt and looked like they didn't want to be there. The fish was over cooked in what I can only assume is old oil and not golden as fish should be. I can honestly say that we will not be returning to this place or recommending it.

I received a gift card for afternoon tea for 2 at the Walled Garden as a present. I went with my sister and while the food was okay, there wasn't enough of it. The sandwiches had pickle and chutney already applied, which I don't like, and there was barely enough for two small sandwiches each. The desserts were tasty but small, and the tea was served from a cold urn. Overall, the portion sizes were more suited to a child's tea party. At £15 per person, the profit margin must be quite large. My advice would be to skip the tea and instead go out for a good meal, curry, or even fish and chips from a local shop. It's best to eat something before you go to the Walled Garden. Ver carta
