Avonfield Kitchen in Wiltshire

Great food, lovely little setup. Staff are very kind and helpful.

Tip top garden centre cafe with great choice of full meals snacks and drinks. Both indoor and outdoor seating. Plenty of choice, great service, and one of the best garden centres in the area. What more could you want?

Superb breakfast.. friendly service and lovely atmosphere. Will defiantly return soon😃

Been here many of times, the food is always beautiful and a great service from the staff, a couple of times we have unfortunately not been able to get a seat, it is very popular! Poached eggs are always cooked to perfection. Cakes are beautiful 🤩 highly recommend

Update in April 2025: my friend and I still come here for coffee and breakfast and it’s still good. The full English is excellent and more than enough. I particularly like the cherry tomatoes that I think are oven cooked. They are juicy with very intense flavour. This is a lovely café set within a garden centre. The cakes and coffee are excellent and I never really know what to have - too much to choose from! Breakfasts here are good too. There is a mix of seating, blending between indoors and outdoors, so you can find somewhere just right. It’s also nice to wander around the garden centre afterwards and browse the plants. I buy herbs here for the kitchen and they’ve all flourished in the garden at home so far. My friend and I have even done a bit of ‘bird spotting’ here. Sightings so far include buzzards, a sparrow hawk, chiffchaff, red kites, and a very friendly local robin - he doesn’t need any cake!

Second visit and amazing food and service . My wife had the afternoon cream tea and I had the biggest club sandwich ever. Both dishes were fantastic, service is better than most restaurants we’ve been too. The girls and boys working here work their socks off and we would both like to say thank you once again .

This is a nice place in a  garden centre. Food is sourced locally. Staff are friendly. Just a shame about the food  We ordered a coronation chicken sandwich and savoury tea. The former was a strange affair involving chewy bread, red onions, and, I kid you not, a poppadom. The accompanying limp, coursely cut salad didn't inspire much more confidence. A few mouthfuls of tasteless chicken confirmed it. At nearly £10, this was an expensive nibble. As for the scone, my friend confirmed it was okay: a bit dry and stodgy with a flavour - lacking chutney.  What about the drinks? Well, the cappuccino was thin and somewhat short of coffee as well as steamed milk. Still, the bottle of water we had was good.  All in all then, not great and somewhat overpriced. A shame really.

It was busy but found a table to have tea and cake. The cake was amazing, looking round the food looked just as good. Will be back!

The staff were super friendly and helpful. The food was delicious with lots of options. It is quite small inside so can get quite loud and at busy times might find it hard to park in the car park.

A lovely outdoor/indoor restaurant with rustic decor and overlooking charming countryside. Dog-friendly, fireplace, charming.

It was a lovely place but very busy and noisy. Some people may not like this, And could find it overwhelming. The food was good, but the service was slow. We only had coffee and cake, but it ages to come, and I had to chase it up as I only had a limited time.

Some of the best food I've had! Highly recommend the haystack! Hash browns like I've never tasted! We try to go once a month!

Very slow, half an hour just for a cup of coffee, food very oily.

The food here looks as amazing as it tastes. Good menu options for breakfast and lunch and super friendly team! Will definitely be back!

We came here for breakfast on a miserable wet Sunday morning in January. Situated within an excellent garden center this place instantly brightened up our morning. The dining room is light and looks out over impressive garden displays. The menu offers a very good selection of breakfast dishes made from quantity local produce. Decent coffee and fresh fruit juices washed down a mammoth 'Big Breakfast'. It's true that you can get a generic cooked breakfast from a pub chain for less but this really is a case of quality over quantity. I won't need to eat again today! Highly recommended.

The food was great. The service was great but it was slightly spoiled by a customer bringing a huge irish wolfhound past our table where it turned and sniffed by wife's food. Why are dogs allowed in cafes anyway? We told the waitress who explained that dogs are only allowed outside and inthe conservatory area. A lesson for the future. She was great though and gave my wife a cake in recompense for leaving part of her breakfast that may or may not have been contaminated by the beast. Love;y food

This is my local ‘ go to’ . Staff and food second to none . Having read the most recent review, I witnessed the so called “beast “ walking past and simply turning its head in the direction of the said table . All I can say is the ‘best actress ‘award goes too… completely over the top . Please do not be put off by this dog friendly cafe . I for one would love to see the Irish wolfhound there again , what a gentle giant.

The food here was absolutely delicious. Went out for a cake and hot drink with my Mum a few weeks ago, both were exceptional and the portions were very big!

First visit here after google search for decent places to eat in Trowbridge. Really impressed and on speaking to others it seems like it’s known as a local gem! Gets very busy around lunchtime with queues for food ordering. Food lovely and wholesome, staff very friendly and helpful. Looking forward to returning :-)

Little gem tucked away in a lovely little garden centre. Gets busy but food is great, will be returning. Staff friendly, quick service.

By far my favourite brunch spot in Trowbridge. You can tell so much thought goes into the designing of the menu, the presentation and taste. Through the years the quality has never wavered, even when accommodating larger numbers of customers. The service is great. Being gluten free and having afternoon tea provided without qualm and to such a great standard is amazing. (Pre ordered). The festive afternoon tea was unreal!! Most enjoyable food experience I had all through the Christmas period! The thick halloumi on the breakfasts is a must! The coronation chicken sandwich I was stunned to find out contained poppadum and mango chutney 🤯 The cake counters and always full and the doughnuts looks amazing I wish I could have one so bad. They do an amazing job here 💚

Wow what can I say other than one of the best breakfasts I have ever had. Great friendly service aswell. Would highly recommend and will be back very soon.

We had a delicious breakfast. Cooked to perfection. The coffee is amazing. Service and staff were excellent. Definitely will go there again. Highly recommended 👌

I collected xmas trees for Dorothy house and had a bacon roll and coffee, the back is from a butchers not off the shelf and tasty or what, and the coffee was really nice, well worth the visit

I was recommend this place for a good breakfast. It didn't disappoint, very good food. Well worth a visit.

I visit here a lot with family and friends and EVERYTIME the food is incredible and staff are super friendly and happy. More recently Becky and the team organised a Christmas afternoon tea surprise for my mums 70th birthday and it was amazing. I would highly recommend the afternoon tea, but the veggie haystack, cakes, coffee are all delicious and best around. I cannot recommend this place and the staff highly enough (and we have no connection to anyone- just really love it!) Thank you!

The food was incredible. Highly recommend

My first (but not last!) visit was for a works Xmas afternoon tea. I remain amazed by the quality and quantity of the food and the exceptional kindness of the staff. They were very busy but took the time and effort to explain my vegan version of the set menu. Both myself and my omnivore colleagues had a wonderful time and we left happy, impressed and keen to return. Thank you Avonfield for such a memorable meal.

Club sandwich huge and highly recommended. We opted to share and were impressed we both got a portion of coleslaw and salad. Always great service.

Festive afternoon tea! How amazing this was and plenty for two! A great selection of festive food for an amazing price, the staff were all so lovely and looked after us. We were running late and they were very accommodating for us! Thank you and we can’t wait to revisit soon!

We went today for the festive afternoon tea. It was absolutely incredible!! I can’t speak highly enough of the quality of food and the service is second to none. We accidentally arrived 40mins earlier and staff were more than accommodating even serving the food much earlier than they had planned. We were very grateful and had a wonderful time. We love Avonfield!

Avonfield Kitchen inside the Nursery is a great stop off after plant buying. We had had main meals and cakes, you get plenty on the plate and the cakes are scrummy

Excellent breakfast recently. Good quality ingredients and very tasty. Had no intention of taking away cake, until I looked at what was available and could not resist.

Service excellent price's competitive

Wow, what a truly brilliant find... great value and great food. Garden centre also really great.

A gem of a garden centre/nursery. Beautifully kept plants and the best cafe in a garden centre I have ever been to. Highly recommend a visit.

The staff and food was great. It was raining so the conservatory was waterlogged underfoot.

One of the nicest places to meet family and friends for coffee & cake, brunch or lunch. The food is both creative and exceptionally delicious and the staff work really hard to make sure you have the best experience. The cakes are phenomenal and there is an abundance of choice, including GF options, and you are surrounded by beautiful plants due to the cafe being nestled in a nursery. One of my favourite local places to hang out.

Great food and lovely atmosphere

The food is undercooked and overpriced. The eggs were absolutely disgusting.

Went here for a Sunday morning breakfast and certainly wasn't disappointed. Quality and quantity was great, the home made hash browns were the best I have had. Will definitely have to go back a few times as when I looked at other peoples plates I just thought oh wow , I want that as well

Always good. Staff welcoming. Lucky to have it on my doorstep.

Both myself & my partner have eaten all over the world, from street food to Michelin star restaurants, & I can honestly say that Avonfield Kitchen is truly wonderful. The food is an absolute delight & where do they get their staff from?? Every visit is greeted with genuine warmth & care. Very, very well done 💯

Nice cafe and plenty of seating inside and out.

Best coffee had an all-day lovely atmosphere as well friendly.

Wow 🤩 what a find for a hungry cyclist 🚴 excellent service the staff were friendly and helpful, my poached eggs were delicious and the GF Bakewell flapjack that I took away was yum and perfect when I cycled to Devizes! Thanks 🤩

Highly recommend, fresh yummy food , always a good variety of homemade cakes

Excellent garden centre. Quality and variety brilliant. Cafe very nice, inside and outside seating. Lovely food. Gets busy though and parking can be tricky at times. Back again today after a few weeks. As good as ever on food and likely the very best plant display around this way!

Fantastic food, nicely furnished, relaxing atmosphere, great service. Always very welcoming to my daughter. The breakfast menu is my favourite and my daughter loves the free babycino. An excuse to buy some flowers after…

Best breakfast around. Staff were very attentive. Garden centre was good as well

Fantastic cafe, food is just awesome 👌

Had the best vegan brekky here yesterday ( minus the salmon extra option ) and took home an amazing piece of biscoff flapjack

Really good cream tea and a very good price as well at £6.50..... only reason I've taken one star off is because you only get one scone and it is absolutely huge with a result that you are unable to eat it with any degree of daintiness.....the only option then is to cut your scone into four and as it's so crumbly everything gets a bit of a mess.... I would have also preferred the scone without any sultanas in it because it makes it exceptionally sweet. 6/24.... Second visit today and had a coronation chicken sandwich and ploughman's sandwich...... I found the ploughman's rather strange because the bread had been toasted and the coronation chicken sandwich had poppadoms and chutney in it, which is totally weird...... As for an iced coffee latte and a coffee latte. All I can say was that the coffee was very very acidic and unpleasant and we were unable to finish it.....£34 for two sandwiches and two coffees......

Just popped in to take some cake for later.would definitely recommend get there early as it is very busy also plant selection is worth looking around.

My Mum and I visit most Saturdays for lunch and I can’t recommend Avonfield enough. We first visited and had afternoon tea which was gorgeous. We recently had family come visit us and we took them out to Avonfield for breakfast and they all loved it.

Best bacon sandwich in Wiltshire. What makes this establishment stand out from others is that they use the best ingredients every time. Well done, will be back.

Lovely food , different salads offered. Unusual dishes .

Brilliant food, friendly service, and great quality. Really enjoyed our visit and will be back.

Very busy when we visited, good service and reasonable pricing.

Always brilliant, always great food and service.

A great stop for lunch, several good veggie options all taste fantastic at a reasonable price (with some proper milkshakes and fresh brownies to finish!)

Favourite place for food and a quality hot chocolate! Get there early to grab a table.

Amazing breakfast. The afternoon tea is good too, very generous. I love coming here when I'm back in the area. 🤌

absolutely perfect in every way, seriously! the portions are great, the food tastes really fresh and made with love and the staff are so wonderful. And it's in a garden centre?! What could possibly be better! Amazing thoughtful vegan options too. Our new favourite place, we can't wait to come back.

After tasting the food here I totally get why it is so busy and popular. The Vegan/Vegetarian options are absolutely spot on. I had poached eggs, avocado and a gorgeous tomato salsa. Lovely home made cakes and all are reasonably priced. There are tables inside and outside but I'd get here early as it does get very busy. You can then walk off your food around the garden centre. I'll definitely be coming back.. 🍰

First time here at lunchtime, very busy as usual My wife had the Twanger Cheddar toastie I had the Club Sandwich, wow ! Probably the best Club Sandwich I have had in many years, full of tasty bacon & chunks of chicken with the usual tomato lettuce etc It was a plateful As I have said you don't go hungry here Well done We will be back !

We love Avonfield, the food is incredible and the service is second to none. Kimmi and Amy are the best front of house team, as well as the other guys who work there! The menu is really high quality, we miss the bagels but still love the choice you give! The cakes are beautiful!

Excellent food! Be sure to get there when you can as you may have to wait for a table and the car park was full (this was a regular Saturday morning in March).

Really surprised at the negative reviews, we've been here ample times and love the food. It's hard to find good and tasty veggie/vegan food in Trowbridge but we always have a great meal here! The mushroom on toast was the best we've had for sure, and the hash stacks are amazing. Love that this is in an all-independent cafe, in lovely surroundings. The fact they've upsized the dining area and that it's almost always rammed when we go - is testament to their success!

Popped in for a spot of breakfast. And lovely food as usual and got busy quickly.

Outstanding food, excellent sercice

Avonfield Kitchen is such an amazing café... It's pretty much impossible to find anywhere in the area that compares! 😍 My friend and I shared pancakes today from their special pancake day menu. The staff and chefs were so accommodating and even adapted one of the recipes to suit my friend who is vegan but doesn't like banana. The spinach, savoury pancakes were our favourite and should definitely be added to the main menu, or at least become a regular special! 🤤 Thank you so much Becky, Jake, Kimmi, Sam and the rest of the gang... You're smashing it! ✨

Lovely place to visit, the garden centre is beautiful and the food and coffee is delicious. The staff friendly, helpful and efficient. Thoroughly enjoyable.

What a gem! Much more unusual breakfasts than the usual full English or 'eggs and avocado' offerings. All breakfasts come with additional ingredients for full impact flavour, ie salsa verde and tomato chutney. It is more expensive but still really good value for money considering the quality of the food. Nice staff, efficient service and amazing looking cakes. Was busy and therefore rather noisy, but still a great experience.

Update on previous reviews as portion sizes no longer justify the prices charged. Lovely place and friendly staff and If you value quality then it's great. But the portions and quality have both come down a star or two. It's annoying when you pay up front expecting what you've had previously only to be disappointed when the food arrives. I've added another photo to show the difference in size and quality. It's worth noting in response to the reply to this review, that I did mention these issues to the waiter who simply said he'd pass on my comments to the chef. So an opportunity to address this was provided to staff.

A lovely cafe within a very good garden centre. We had an afternoon tea, so different from other afternoon teas I have had. You can choose your sandwiches and cake, + 3 choices of scone. Service was excellent such friendly and professional staff.

Visited today, 25/1/24 for afternoon tea for two (a Christmas treat from our daughter). Now I'm not a fan of the normal afternoon tea as I find the mix of finger sandwiches & tiny cakes a case of more style than content. But this was not that and it was lovely! We had a choice of sandwiches, scones (with suitable accompaniments), and cakes from any of the freshly made cakes available. And the staff were really friendly and courteous. So much nicer and definitely recommended!

Good service and good selection of food

Loved it. Such a nice comfortable environment with a really excellent service team who went above and beyond.

Lovely setting with friendly and capable staff. Disappointed there wasn't a vegan version of the full English breakfast and all the vegan dishes include avocado (locally sourced?!) which I can't eat so had to have a meal without the avocado but it was substituted with a few extra mushrooms. Would prefer no background music.

Nice and chill cafe for breakfast and brunch. Great food, great coffee. It's always busy on the weekend though sometimes it's hard to find a place to sit on weekends brunch time.

Delightful find for mum and I, will return in the Spring to buy plants too

Update 18/12/23 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not been here for a couple of years - even though it's not exactly far away. Delightful breakfast - different to my last visit, but in a good way. Veggie breakfast was filling, and food value for money - just a couple of larger mushrooms, not the pile I had previously 😀. Was very busy for 10.30am so if you want to get fed, get there early. Staff were friendly and polite, what more do you need! Original review: Had a very early breakfast the other day, and was really impressed by the food that appeared. If I was to make a small criticism, the veggie breakfast was lovely but way too many mushrooms! Maybe half the amount and add an egg? Vegan bacon? If you're there, or nearby, do eat here as what we had was lovely.

Vey busy, good food and lovely staff

Quirky venue, excellent breakfast. Very busy Friday morning.

Wonderful food and great service as always! I have visited a couple of times but havent had the chance to write a review. I visited with a friend today and the food was delicious as always. Nothing is too much trouble and I love their take on breakfast. The staff are always so kind and welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. You cant leave without trying one of their beautiful cakes or having one as a take away. Cant wait to visit again soon.

Breakfast sandwich (choice of 2 fillings) was totally lacklustre. Dry thin bread with very basic filling. No way worth the £8 price tag. Sorry really not impressed today

Such a cosy atmosphere and outstanding food! Me and my girlfriend often share mains and when we ordered one meal between two they brought it on two separate plates and had gone to the trouble of presenting them beautifully! Highly recommend ❤

A lovely area, shame toilets are not great for older folk and out in the cold . Big pots of tea nice but really needs a couple more tea bags as like dish water. And the toasted current bun was full of air and wasnt really toasted well. Waste of money. But couldnt say as there was a huge que of people waiting to be served who were getting abit huffy. Sorry but if your going to charge £.3.50 for a hollow current bun and wishy washy tea for almost £10, then it needs to be better. That was supposed to be my treat after being ill for 3 weeks. The butter is nice.

My friend and I enjoyed a delicious Afternoon Tea for two (a birthday present from my daughter) and we couldn’t fault it. Lovely sandwiches, scones, cakes and tea and we were stuffed! And despite my voucher being only just ‘in date’ and worth less than the current price, Kimmi very kindly honoured it anyway. We will definitely be returning next year!!

Thought popping in for a quiet coffee at 9.30am on a wet Friday morning Cafe almost full, very good to see

Fabulous food in a great garden nursery setting

Fabulous lunch of Club Sandwich and Cappuccino.

If I ever open another cafe I will copy this menu. I love it and their coffee is definitely the best for some distance. The food is always first rate

Great place for coffee and cake

Food was delicious and the service excellent.

Loveliest staff, especially today. No trouble at all and so helpful when my toddler spilt my hot chocolate everywhere! They were very kind and it was so touching. Goes without mentioning that the food and drink is amazing, desserts are fresh,creative and so unique! And did I mention delicious? The setting is heavenly. My toddler happily runs through the flowers and foliage as if she were in heaven. Maybe a little picnic garden and some hammocks then we could stay even longer.

Best cafe around with amazing food and coffee, in a fab location!

Excellent. This place is a pure gem. The food was fantastic - really large portions. Highly recommend

It was a busy Saturday morning but they coped pretty well and the coffee and cake were both excellent. It's a nice environment surrounded by plants, though some signs pointing the way to the café would be useful.
