Brownes Garden Centre Coffee Shop in Mendip

A wonderful selection of gluten and dairy free cakes - all home made. So far have sampled the ginger cake (moist and gingery) and the cherry and almond cake (so good) - but plan to do a full survey.

Very nice coffee and cake but rather expensive

Good garden centre and good cafe serve good cakes 🎂 and coffee and tea 🍵. I went there last Thursday with the s.v.c.c cycling 🚲 club.

Popped in for a snack lunch and ended up buying a couple of plants!

Read the reviews and thought this would be a lovely little place to stop for a cuppa. Admittedly we arrived at a quarter to four with the cafe closing at four. When we asked for a cup of tea, the reply from the lady behind the counter was, 'That's about all I can do'. We asked whether she had soya milk and she said, 'Yes', looked in the fridge and then said, 'Oh...no'. so I asked for a black coffee instead, to which she replied, 'Oh, you want coffee now do you?' When she brought the tray to out the table, she put it down, turned away, said 'Enjoy' with her back turned and hurriedly scuttled over to turn over the blackboard and white sign to say closed. By now it was ten to four. We did not feel welcome, we were clearly an inconvenience and in her way. Such a shame.

Always made to feel welcome Thank you

Always enjoy visiting as good place to source plants we go quite alot to fill orders for our customers 😀

Lovely quiet coffee stop just before Wells, limited menu but friendly, covid safe feel.

Had a toasted sandwich and pot of tea. Both fine.

Nice little coffee shop in the garden centre. I had coffee was tempted by the other goodies but was in remarkably good control and did not.

A good place to go if you want a peaceful coffee.

Afternoon tea on the way home!..... When I have no cake at home!

Nice little garden centre with good cafe
