As their boutique has the biggest section of hats & fascinators in the area with first class service and advice. I rounded the day of in the private Café Du Jardin afternoon tea suite with a beautifully presented afternoon tea. They also have a large main coffee shop as well. Highly recommend if you need a wedding hat.

Nothing quite beats a visit to Dobbies on a sunny day, and so that's what Colin and I did…read moreyesterday. This Dobbies, located in the beautiful Clyde Valley amongst another 20+ garden centres, is a lovely day out on a nice day. With everything you could expect, from outdoor dining furniture to plants, fruits and trees, you'll find everything you could need from a garden centre here. Amongst other things, this Dobbies also has a petting zoo with everything from peacocks, donkeys and rabbits to roosters, pigs and ferrets, a bird of prey section you can visit, and a massive restaurant serving hot and cold foods throughout the day. All in all a great day out to be had here!

Rarely do I review but I expected a nice lunch out with my wife down the…read more Clydeside. Not been in for a few years and based on lunch I won't be back ever. Only 4 main items on the lunch board with one rubbed out - I went for sausage with onion gravy and mash - big mistake. Square sausage (assuming lefts overs from the breakfast menu), no onions visible in the gravy by sight or taste - mash mysteriously turned into frozen chips. Unfortunately my wife was fairing just as poorly with a bedraggled ham salad baguette. Both dishes , the lack of service and the total lack of attention to detail all added to an extremely poor experience but we are at least wiser now.

The shop is bigger and some things might appear cheaper, but I have generally found the actual range of items available and the knowledge of the staff somewhat lacking. It feels as though most of the place is taken up with conservatories and china and candles, is that what a garden centre should be? The last couple of times I've been in looking through the garden tools and thought: yes this is all very good for a bit of topiary, at the most, but where are the proper tools. I'll stick to going elsewhere in future.

Lovely cafe. Located on the road in law Scotland. The cafe is part of a huge feed pottery and…read moreclothing center all with the same name. Lots of stuff to buy and look at through this massive place. We stopped in for tea and dessert you order at a counter and they bring you the food very clean and newer chairs tables and silverware. It is a bit pricey however. A standard eggs bacon potatoes and bread type breakfast is $16 + price wise. But, it's well worth the look!
