For some reason, I only seem to visit the garden centre cafe in summer, when the sun is shining through the glass windows into the restaurant creating a bright and sunny space.
I'm not really a fan of their drinks because the coffee machine waters everything down and always makes the drink PIPING hot.
The food however is heavenly. They have a table full of cakes, scones and fresh bread from our very own artisan bakery in town! I am always tempted by the gorgeous empire biscuits and chocolate eclairs which are very big and extremely filling!
But what the Glasshouse does best is breakfast. They have breakfast rolls (formerly known as Stotties) which are filled to the brim with sausage, bacon and egg and always make me feel ready to face the day ahead. Combined with a bottle of fresh orange juice, it makes a delicious breakfast.
The toilets are pretty clean as well. There are about 5 toilets, all of which are always gleaming, as well as 3 sinks which have hot water that doesn't scald your hands, as well as the lemon scented paper towels which are really soft on your skin.
I'm glad that the restaurant is set in a huge glass dome which creates a lovely bright atmosphere. It is also decorated with cute things like "palm trees" and fairy lights. read more
