Reviews in Colchester

Food always good here (have visited 4 times) but would be good to see at least 1 salad or jacket potato for the health conscious.

Great food, good choice of menu. The portions are of a good size as well. Staff are very polite and helpful. Would recommend.

First time visiting the restaurant at this lovely garden centre. Lovely breakfast and very efficient service. A little pricey, but nice for an occasional treat

Excellent food as always. Great service too.

Have had many good meals/coffees here, unfortunately yesterday was too crowded. Staff trying valiantly to keep up but we had a 30 minute wait for our drinks. One breakfast came and was finished before the drinks had arrived. Not good enough. If you don't have the staff, don't take capacity booking.

Excellent menu, good choice, something to suit everyone. Good service and pleasant seating. Very good value for money

Good food, great staff members, a little noisy when really busy, but still my first choice. Book your table to avoid disappointment.

My favourite place for brunch, lunch or a lush High Tea. Great food (the chicken burgers are amazing!), lovely staff and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

This was the second time we have visited for Sunday lunch. We have been before for snacks and also on a number of occasions for breakfast. Sunday lunch was very good on the first visit and even better the second time. My wife had beef, I tried the pork. As a retired Chef I can state that both meals were prepared and cooked to a very high standard. The best Sunday roast we have experienced in the area. Better even than some 'high end' restaurants locally. Piping hot, well seasoned and full of flavour. The bowl of green vegetables perfectly cooked. The only slight 'let down' was the service of the dessert and coffees. These were brought and placed in the middle of the table instead of in front of the customer. It felt that the person serving couldn't be bothered. This may not be the case but thats how it felt. This only slightly spoiled the meal, which is a shame. We will, however, definitely return for the excellent food.

Superb breakfast as always!! The staff are lovely and it’s always a highlight to visit… make sure you book though as it’s very popular.

Always delicious food and good service
