Broadland Nurseries in Great Yarmouth - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

No dogs so the owner went in alone, note: she is an (english) geranium addict! So we try lots of nurseries! It was Mid day & It was the shortest visit ever! spraying mist everywhere! the wife was saturated & only saw 3 Dodgy examples having seen better days! No one there staff! OR customers! Not going back!

Great garden centre, lots to choose from, easy parking and friendly staff, highly recommended

Well maintained garden centre. Everything laid out neat and tidy and a good range of plants, some you don't see in other garden centres. Friendly service and good price. Will visit again soon for more plants

Quiet today due to hot weather but a very good range of well kept bedding plants. Prices were reasonable and we managed to find a couple of plants we have been looking for. Plenty of parking and I belive there is a tearoom too.

Great selection of plants as always. No longer has the gift shop/coffee shop open but still a great garden centre.

We went the other day for a bite to eat and to buy some plants. Sadly the cafe had shut because of family ill-health - I thought that was a perfectly reasonable explanation. The garden centre itself is beautifully well stocked with great value plants. For example, the fuchsias were £11 and strong and healthy, unlike ones in that Potter Heigham shop (£9 and a quarter of the size). Some plants appear expensive but they are strong, mature, specimen plants that will make a statement in your garden. I thought the plants were well priced, the choice was huge and the staff were friendly and helpful when apprached. A gem of a place. Edit to say: went back today to spend lots more money on beautiful plants! Still 5*

Fantastic plants will be going back to get some more plants staff very helpful couldn't ask for more

Great nursery, friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Nice selection of outdoor plants but very little choice of houseplants which is was our purpose for visit. Plants look healthy and well cared for

Beautiful well kept and well stocked garden centre with a huge car par in lovely surroundings.......BUT it needs a cafe and toilet desperately.

Great selection of plants and shrubs in a quiet relaxed environment.

This is a well kept garden centre, plants look good quality, prices are very competitive, plenty of parking space,

What a shame, we called today to look around the nursery, have a coffee and a piece of cake to find out the cafe and shop were closed, we were disappointed. We walked around the garden centre without our little dog who had to remain in the car as he wasn't allowed in the garden centre. We noted that they only accept card payments. Prices are on the high side but the centre is well stocked. We looked through the window at the stock in the little shop (which was closed) there seemed to be some interesting items. We will return at a later date when we're next on holiday, lets hope its a little more welcoming.

Nice located garden centre,with friendly staff everything you might like to jave in your garden depending on your size of garden

Brilliant place with very helpful staff. We bought the best Christmas tree we have ever bought.

Brilliant selection of plants very well laid out, small cafe ,plenty of parking

Great variety of plants but we were the only people there - thought it was shut when we arrived. Went to have a coffee but the coffee shop was shut - maybe that’s why the place was empty. You have to have a coffee shop at a Garden Centre - why was it shut. Can’t comment on staff as didn’t see any. This place won’t last long without customers.

Fabulous plants, well cared for, plenty to look at , always get advice if you ask from the friendly lady at the pay point

Impressed by range of very healthy plants and shrubs plus great service

Exceptional quality plants, shrubs and trees. The best display I have ever seen. Prices are also reasonable. If you are looking for specimen trees this the place to come.

Love this place, a large selection of plants, at reasonable prices.

Great plants, good choice, some a bit expensive. We mange to slit one plant into three as they are usually nice and big and have good root systems.

Good selection of plants. All well cared for.

Excellent quality plants and friendly service.

Lovely healthy plants. Excellent variety, some unusual plants. Friendly, helpful staff.

None of the plants look healthy here. The prices seem to be about another third on top of what you'd expect in any other garden centre. They are selling used plant pots for an extortionate price (£14 for a 20cm crummy old plastic growing pot, nothing decorative). We were looking for terracotta pots but the range is very poor. In the end we went to b&q instead.

Very healthy well looked after plants staff very helpful

Great selection of all sorts of plants, shrubs and trees; all very well looked after.

They have distancing measures in place and a one way system, which gives you a chance to see all their lovely plants

Good selection of mature plants.

Very helpful and a good display of plants especially larger items

I understand the current epidemic, but to have a sign up only allowing 2 people in your store from same family and in big capital letter NO children is disgusting! What are we supposed to do with them... leave them in a hot car or with grandparents to which neither can do or willing to do! I dont understand is that how is this ok to discriminate children... you couldn't do this with with colour or age or ethnic so how is it ok to do this to children!

The only menu we saw was a Drinks (Coffee Etc) we were not offered one nor were there any on the Tables or Walls, nothing to show that they also serve Meals...3 quarters of the tables had been blocked off and the sense of gloom n doom hung in the air and at £5 for 2 cups of Bland Coffee this is not suprising.

Drove in was going to buy loads of plants till I saw the no dogs allowed sign, pathetic

Nice desert but if you are going to sell fake cappuccino at least offer it with chocolate sprinkles ...very disappointing all they need is a decent coffee machine

We often go here to buy any plants for our garden, there is a good selection in all varieties, well kept and reasonable prices, plants that we have purchased here have always grown well in our garden, also we pop into the cafe where you can get various meals and cakes, there is a car parking facility and a bus service goes pass there as well.

Lovely setting for friends and family. Coffee was lush and all cakes were delicious. Hospitality was also good as we had lovely lady serving us.

We always enjoyed our food and the company at Broadlands Nursery cafe but not any more. No decent food, extortionate prices for food that would appear it has been bought from cash and carry at a fraction of the price . The dining area has been partitioned off with fake plants making what’s left a dark , dingy and unwelcoming area. Seems all done on the cheap but prices very high which to my mind is greedy. I will give it maybe 6 months then it will close altogether but maybe this is what the selfish greedy owners want. However, now I have vented, I Will definitely not be going back there or to the garden centre .

😠😡 After checking the on Google for the opening hours today it informed me that tuesday opening hours were 9.30-5pm. At 4.21 pm when i arrived to purchase some Clover compost the gates were shut and locked !!! 20 mile round trip for nothing ...extremely frustrating !!

Only visited cafe - absolute rubbish - lady serving us did not want us to be there and was sour faced while we were having our drinks

Not a lot of choice and the tables are plastic covered but having said that our three salads for approx £15 were well presented and tasty- didn't think that is expensive as some have said. The cakes and scones looked delicious but we opted for a Mr Whippy ice cream. Staff were pleasant and chatty enough. This is not a luxurious place but good price and more than adequate.

Been here several times now,though i have enjoyed what i had for meals menu average and same all the time but not the staffs fault they have to do what they are told,shame because staff very talkative and friendly when you get to know them, shame not more variety in menu would go more if had more choice and place could do with a revamp which would attract more customers.They have a disabled entrance which is locked and if you want to use have to go over to nursery to get key,staff not allowed to have key from what i was told, this is not good business choice.

No dog are allowed in other than guide dogs, annoying because 100 yards down the road there's a lovely restaurant that welcomes dog, considering they are serving food that great, but a garden centre dot allowing dogs doesn't have my rating....not leaving my dog in a hot car.

Minus any stars for customer care. We called in last week to ask about feeding tropical plants. We were ready to invest substantially in Palm trees etc. Whilst my husband asked at the office I wandered into the gift shop with a tiny dog under my arm. Immediately a very rude woman who smelt strongly of cooking fat shouted that no dogs were allowed. I explained I was just looking at the chinaware and the dog was under my arm. More arrogant smirking and defiant commentary, including we provide food! Unfortunately as the door was peeled back, I missed the no dogs allowed sign. Point to owner, you just lost a huge ££££ sale. You need to rethink your out of date policy regarding dogs. Your garden centre is very unfriendly and unhelpful. It's not against hygiene standards to bring a dog into a restaurant or a gift shop! Your staff need to go on hospitality courses! You need to visit other garden centres to understand why I gave -1star!

My friend and i decided to try another place we have not ate in before after we went shopping, like to try new place's to compare with others i have been too. My friend had lasagne and a large salad, i had fish,beans and chips, although fish slightly over cooked i still enjoyed my meal. Staff friendly and chatty.Also mention that it's the first place i have been to that supply a container to put used teabags etc in,think this good idea for all such places because often moaned because have to use tissue so no mess on table.

Not welcoming when you get in people not very pleased to see you but the worst thing is the price extremely expensive I come from London and for a moment I thought I was back there for a moment overpriced no smiles not good, plastic table cloths, and school chairs do not go there unless your desperate I will not be back.

The other reviews said it all. Don't stop here there are lots of lovely cafés and coffee shops in Norfolk carry on driving past you will soon find one.

We stopped here with elderly parents on the way home from Yarmouth, and although we've had a caravan in this area for many years we had never been here before. We were so glad we did! My parents (very fussy eaters!!), Opted for the pasties which were homemade and absolutely delicious! The pastry just melted in your mouth, these were better than the VERY expensive pasties we'd had in Cornwall several years ago! Myself and my husband had sandwiches which were freshly prepared and served with a lovely side salad. We also tried the scones which were also homemade and gorgeous!! In fact all the pastry items and cakes are homemade which is so rare these days. The staff were also lovely, jovial and welcoming and the toilets spotless! We will definitely return!

Coffee shop was such a disappointment. Don't do Latte's baguettes were served cold with disappointing Salad. Glass for cold drink wasn't clean, had an offensive smell to it. Never again

Having recently moved to Norfolk we often liked to have breakfast at castle carvery, at weekends, but disappointingly they were closed, winter season I guess. We passed broadlands nurseries and see a board outside advertising breakfasts so thought we would give it a go. Well we now wish they were closed too £22 for two breakfasts and two coffees, a bit steep we thought, but then nurseries always are. Well when we got our cooked breakfasts clearly everything bar the fried eggs had been dropped into the deep fat fryer, it looked like something you would expect from a truckers cafe, in fact the interior probably resembled a truckers cafe. If you want a quality breakfast at the weekends I recommend castle carvery in caister it's all you can eat, not deep fried, and very reasonably priced too.

Broadland Nurseries is primarily a garden centre, but my husband and I had driven by on a few occasions and noticed there was a cafe which looked out towards the road. It looked quite nice from the outside, and the position for the Broads is stunning. It is at a spot on the A149 where there are Broads on both sides of the road and the road almost forms a bridge between them. So with Broads and trees and out of the way, we thought it would be lovely. We decided to visit one morning and were severely disappointed. We were expecting quaint tea room with nice cakes and pleasant surroundings. The inside was sort of half way between a truckers cafe and a field kitchen. It looked greatly unloved on the inside and the two members of staff, although not rude or anything looked almost disappointed to see us walk in. Choice of hot drinks was either filter coffee or tea you could stand your spoon in. There is no atmosphere and clearly they had done a lot of breakfasts that morning because when the kitchen door open the cafe filled with kitchen smoke. It was like a fog across the cafe. When we left our clothes stunk of fried food and fat. We were polite and stayed for one drink. We had intended for lunch, but moved on to Wroxham Barns for lunch. If you're looking for a nice place to stop and gather your thoughts in this location. Move on 1/2 a mile to the Waterside at Rollesby. The cafe at Broadlands Nurseries is really not a pleasant place to to stop.

Friendly service with good value home cooked food.

Great selection of well looked after plants

Well we went along looking to buy a large variety of plants for our garden, Shame the staff couldnt be bothered to assist us so we went else where. Very rude and unhelpfull, will deffo not be returning .

completely disgusted with the service I received, am currently running a project to help the community of Potter Heigham and They didn't want to know at all, completely cut me up before I had chance to speak.. outraged.

If you are looking for a meal then try the tea room: Great food. Good price Lovely people.
