Brown's Garden Restaurant in Tewkesbury

A large group of friends visited for a (choices pre-booked) brunch celebration. The restaurant is bright and airy with comfortable seating at clean tables. The breakfast menu is extensive and food was both delicious and beautifully presented. Drinks order was prompt and all the food arrived together. The staff could not have been more helpful and went out of their way to make the occasion special. Highly recommend.

Great english breakfast of both variations, normal and vegetarian. Great service from attentive staff. Can get very busy at sunday morning opening times.

Has lost the quality and taste it once had. Pop in a few mo the ago and was pleasantly surprised. This time however it was dreadful. Food was bland and the quality was not what it was when we had visited last time. Seem to have gone for cheaper easier meals which took away the usp for ourselves.

Hi myself plus 3 relatives came here for midday meal, all the staff in Browns were very friendly and instantly we felt welcome, we ordered our food and have to say it was well prepared and tasted very nice, 1 fish and chips, 1 bacon Brie and cranberry panini, and 2 hot dog meals from specials board. Good quality and good quantity well done will definitely make a return visit.

1st visit today and we will be back. Staff were lovely and friendly. Varied menu with something to suit everyone and reasonably priced. Thank you Chef for accommodating my request for a change to my Jacket topping. Mum loved her quiche and salad. Thank you, can't wait to visit again xx

We visit here every few weeks and always enjoy the food and friendly environment. Our last visit was very different though, the chef has changed and sadly so has the menu… This place used to offer different breakfasts such as Keto, Farmhouse brunch and other exciting and colourful/beautiful dishes that you wouldn’t find elsewhere. Sadly, this has all gone and has been replaced with a basic menu you can get pretty much anywhere. We noticed a totally different atmosphere this time, many of the usual staff weren’t there and staff that were seemed to wonder around in 2’s a lot. There were 8 people in for breakfast and we waited 40 minutes for our traditional breakfast, which had changed from its usual presentation and has gone up in price. When I questioned the wait I was told our order had not gone through on their new order system. It’s not the end of the world but given the wait I would have expected a free drink or something? Nope, paid in full and left…There have been changes in this place, not for the better unfortunately.

Disappointed :( We have been going to Browns once a month or so for several years, and have always enjoyed our meals. The staff are lovely, friendly and helpful. The food, however, has gone downhill. The menu has changed and has to be stuck to, no changes allowed now. The lovely supergreen brunch that I liked has gone from the menu and as a veggie, there is very little choice now. Decided that only the pancakes were suitable but even those were no longer any good. The pancakes looked shop bought and were cold, they have now adopted a DIY method of emptying little pots and assembling the pancakes yourself :( The pancakes that I cook at home are better than these. We didn't stay long this time and have decided to go elsewhere at the end of the month. It is a shame. The 2 stars are for the staff, (they deserev 5 really) none for the food

Amazing Sunday lunch, definitely the best in the area!!! Lovely staff. We felt at home and we really like the new atmosphere. Hope to be back soon

Bit of a maze walking from the ancient sliding doors of the Garden Centre negotiating various stalls… (difficult for disabled access ie my mother with her Walker…)… and we first thought the cafe was closed!! Pleasant decor, lively wood burner in the lower, closed off area, and polite staff. Breakfast Bap was very tasty, as was Eggs Florentine (delicious spinach!). Good pot of tea (together, about £22). As another review mentioned, I also had a blue fleck floating in my tea, too!! The food was well presented, although quite slow coming. A regular but sudden Bang Bang came from the desk, possibly someone bashing used coffee granuals out… very loud, and obtrusive. Beware that the toilet means a walk outside across the garden Centre… been like that for years & years, not the best thing. Really should be updated/relocated.

Having used this garden centre in the past with moderate success we chose to have lunch there on Saturday. The coffee had to be returned because there were unidentified tiny flecks of something blue floating in it! To be fair the shepherd's pie was acceptable but the sausage and mash was terrible. The mash was very over salted. The three tiny sausages were thoroughly burnt all over and the gravy was watery and salty. £12.95 seemed very expensive indeed for the quantity that arrived, however since it was virtually inedible that wasn't a problem! I did my best with one sausage, my fellow diner tackled a second but neither of us could face the third burnt offering. A complaint was made at the till and an apology of 'oh I'm sorry' was the best they could manage. A neighbouring diner had also ordered the sausages and finding them as inedible as mine he took the sensible step of returning his plate and asking for an alternative meal.

The healthiest breakfast ever. I have travelled far and wide seeking somewhere that understands and serves heathly food. Never expected to find it in a small cafe in a garden centre. Full marks I only wished I lived closer.

Definitely gone down hill, food was average at best and service was appalling, properly not the fault of the young staff but lack of training. A lot better places to go for Sunday lunch for the money. Such a shame, could be so much more. Bad management.

Had one of the specials, goats cheese & fig tart with salad. Was really tasty and there was plenty. Great service as well.

We called here for bacon sandwiches and coffee. I had a bacon sandwich on granary bread and I would rate it the best bacon sandwich ever. Huge amount of quality bacon, lovely and tender and full of flavour. My wife had the same but on white bread and agreed best ever. The staff are really nice, polite and frendly. Dont miss it!!!!

Eight of us met for a runion - this venue suited us well. We were all served together with our various choices by friendly and happy staff.

Excellent food and service for Birthday tea in new The Shed. Nothing was too much trouble for Louise and Emma. Thoroughly recommended. Give the new venue a try!

Amazing breakfast lovely fresh flavours and great service! New teapots are awesome - great design and pour well - ideal

I was very disappointed with my breakfast today after not having been for a good while. I ordered eggs benedict which had an overdone brioche bun which was very crispy. And there was bacon instead of ham underneath the eggs. On a plus side the eggs were cooked beautifully which I suppose compensated for the rest. It has made me think twice about visiting again.

Welcoming place for lunch. Friendly staff, tasty freshly cooked food and a good choice too. Looking forward to returning soon

Great food but terribly slow service . Although apologies were forthcoming . We had a light lunch of pate and lamb Flatbread and it was tasty and reasonably priced

Myself and my family have visited Browns a few times. Good selection of food and drink. Also choices for vegetarians and vegans. Great friendly helpful service.

Lovely friendly service, well presented but average tasting food at best. My coronation chicken baguette was rather bland, definitely needs spicing up a little.

This is the second time we have had a roast dinner at this restaurant with a fabulous selection of fresh vegetables. We chose a trio of pudds for our desert, delicious. Very busy restaurant, advise to book a table. We will return.

We chose the cheapest item on the breakfast menu (bacon sandwich). 2 of those and 2 coffees came to more than £21 gulp! So so coffee. Expected better at this price.

We came for bottomless brunch and the service was just impeccable! Food was yummy, entertainment was great, but honestly the staff just went above and beyond!

Took my elderly mother for brunch. We really enjoyed our poached eggs on toast (her) full English (me). Probably one of the best I’ve had. Huge shame that the toilets were a very long walk from cafe & not accessible with a very steep step...

I have visited this restaurant quite frequently, mostly for breakfast and the occasional lunch. On the positive side, the food is excellent - generous, nicely cooked and presented. The menu is good, with quite a lot of variety. The staff are, in the main, welcoming...

This is the second time we have been in for a coffee and cake mid morning while visiting the garden centre on a Saturday. Sadly the second visit was as mediocre as the first. We were greeted and seated quickly and then nothing! After a...

Shouldn't have expected anything other than 'run of the mill' in a garden centre caff, but this one boasts on it's website "independently owned", "delightful garden restaurant" and the ubiquitous "local ingredients". Ordered a premium brand of bottled ginger beer but a tin of the...

The vegetarian breakfast was original and delicious - so many individual components including haloumi and avocado. The stack of pancakes with bacon and maple syrup is my son's favourite and he nearly finished it all (it's big!) Friendly service and a lovely clean restaurant. Highly...

I went with a friend mid-week and was so impressed that I booked a table for my husband and me for a Sunday roast. It was excellent. The best roast dinner I have ever had in a restaurant. Beautifully cooked meats and lovely crispy roast...

Called in for lunch on the recommendation of a family member. Was pleasantly surprised by the range of food on offer and the very reasonable prices. Enjoyed my panini and fries with salad, decaffeinated tea was available and tasted good.

Quite honestly this is the best breakfast I've had for a long time and definitely the best VEGGIE breakfast I've ever had! The variety of food is amazing avo, halloumi, sweet potato rosti, veggie sausage (nice n spicy) Tomatoes, hash brown and a perfect poached...

I took my elderly mum here yesterday, the staff were so kind and helpful. The food was great and nothing was too much trouble. Its a varied menu and can feed most families wants from old to young. Very friendly staff, we will be back...

We went to Browns for Sunday lunch on the premise of their '£15 for 2 courses' advertised on their website. When we got there, sat down and inspected the menu, there was no mention of this, so I asked a waitress who causally informed me...

Called in for breakfast without booking and received a very warm welcome. A good breakfast menu with lots of choice. We had the traditional breakfast and the farmhouse brunch which were both excellent. The staff were very friendly and attentive. We will be back!

Opening hours 9-5 First time at the garden centre. Arrived at 3.50 Said we wanted to order but Required toilets first They were other side of the centre and only one for visitors Went back to the coffee shop who said we could only have...

I really lovely vegetarian breakfast, no meat replacements which was great and a really interesting sweet potato and spinach roti. A great treat when we visited the garden centre.

It might not look much from the outside but this little restaurant produces fresh, healthy delicious food. The menu will have have you wanting to come back to try it all. The staff are friendly and attentive.

Was wonderful to see familiar faces again after a long absence. As ever the food and service was excellent and we'll both be returning. Make sure you ring to book your table as Browns is always very busy. We love the atmosphere .There's a great...

Traveled to the garden centre this week, and desired food here, however they no longer allow dogs within the restaurant, what’s the point of a garden centre cafe that doesn’t allow dogs, I’ll now take my business elsewhere, ended up in the boat house with...

This is the 2nd Sunday roast takeaway we’ve had from here & can highly recommend. Choice of 4/5 meats & comes with loads of vegetables & 3 different types of potatoes & gravy to die for. Photo dosn’t show it but my plate was loaded....

After researching reviews on here for somewhere to stop midway to Cornwall for breakfast we spotted this. So glad we did, really good quality and perfectly cooked & presented. Our compliments to the chef. All the necessary covid requirements were in place & adhered to....

The best I and my husband have eaten. Will be going again this Sunday coming.The service was impeccable and Louise couldn't have been more helpful .The atmosphere was good under the present circumstances of social distancing.I hope this helps.

Well would not have expected to have had superb pancakes bacon and syrup in a garden centre but highly recommend.

Situated on the outskirts of the picturesque town of Tewksbury, you will find Tewksbury Garden Centre. Within the Centre, there is Brown’s Garden Restaurant offering seating both inside & out. Licensed & offering a good basic menu, complimented by a Specials Board, there will be...

Excellent afternoon . Superb food very well cooked and presented. Exceptional staff. Nothing too much trouble. Their attitude made for a wonderful and memorable birthday. Highly recommend

Four of us had Sunday lunch here. Booking essential. Easy parking, Easy access. A warm welcome. The roast dinners were freshly cooked and of good quality. Vegetables served in dishes for each individual diner - always a plus for us! The knickerbocker glory was unconventional,...

This is not some chic restaurant but the food and service were excellent. God range of options so should appeal to almost all people. I had gyros served in a plant pot ! Really good

Browns garden centre is a good, well stocked local place to call into. The plants are varied, well tended and though quite small, it has a large selection. The restaurant is very good with an excellent menu and good helpful accommodating staff. The only problem...

The restaurant is within the garden centre and is spacious and comfortable. Food is classic sort of pub menu. The staff were exceptional - always happy to help and smiling.

Excellent food and service, good choice not just roast but lots of choice Nice to have the air con on today

Lovely garden centre. We turned off the M5 looking for something to eat and came across this lovely garden centre. The food was delicious and lots on the menu. The ploughman’s was great! Really friendly staff and helpful. Lots of lovely products and homely bits....

Stopped here for breakfast and was presently surprised. The service was good, nice and friendly. Not many tables so I guess it will get quite busy at lunchtimes. Food took a while to arrive but that’s because it was freshly made. The cooked breakfast was...

So nice to have such a choice on both breakfast and lunch menus, with vegetarian and pescatarian options galore! Really friendly place and the garden centre is excellent too.

Recommended by parents but was very disappointed. My wife had a jacket potato that was undercooked and the prawns were tasteless. I had pate with toast and salad, the pate came in a jar with wax on top. After taking the wax off it was...

Stopped off here today and had a great lunch. Beautifully presented and fantastic quality. Clearly you need to arrive early for lunch as it was very busy at 12.

Fab food cooked to order with great service and lovely surroundings, tucked away in a lovely local garden centre.

Had an absolutely amazing afternoon Tea here today. Was just perfect, felt very spoilt by the staff who were both very attentive. Will definitely be recommending to friends and family ... Thankyou to all !!

We have visited this restaurant regularly for some years and eagerly awaited the refit. Sadly it's not now friendly and comfortable, gone are the sofas and comfy seating and the bench seats mean people opposite are looking at the wall instead of into the room....

What a wonderful Afternoon Tea at Brown's. Amazing food especially the scones. Staff warm, friendly and attentive. Excellent service all round. Love the refurbishment and the new menu looks very appetizing. One of my favourite local restaurants.

Having not ventured out much with our new baby I wanted to go somewhere with quick service, home cooked grub, easy parking and a nice atmosphere - Browns hit the mark in all areas. The staff were very friendly (our little boy had a lot...

Recently revisited the restaurant after it's refurbish. Not sure the new seating is an improvement on previous arrangements. Benches alongside each side and tables in a uniform straight line do not give patrons much room or privacy. High chairs were squeezed in tight spaces already,...

What a lovely coffee shop within a garden centre, and worth visiting in its own right. They cater for most tastes and appetites, choosing from a menu of snacks or full meals, including gluten free. The very welcoming atmosphere is down to the helpful and...
