Dobbies Garden Centre Hungerford in West Berkshire

The staff in this store are so unhelfull & miserable. 1st time visit today & will not shop here again....

Nice place to visit, shame there is not a restaurant, just a café.

Great pot of tea. Lovely selection of merchandise

Just going past this garden centre thaught we would pop in to see what they had in. Some nice pot plants. But a lot of dead and blown over plants, didnt look good. Inside wasnt to bad, had a lot of Christmas stuff looked quite nice staff very helpful

Excellent 50% off plant sale. Good coffee too

Lovely selection of plants. Good mocha & lemon muffin, shame about the cleanliness of tables & floors.

Not the best. Came to buy a rake. Selection was poor. Couldn't buy a rake. Went elsewhere to buy a rake.

Poor selection of plants for inside and outside. Also not looked after as quite a few were dead. Obnoxious staff who are passive aggressive and also allow kids to ride bikes around despite the place actually having a sign that says children are not to play in the area.

The lady in the cafe who served us was ignorant, she barely spoke with no thank you at all, Dobbies need to send her on a meet and greet course,

Great place for all your gardening projects 👍 and pets corner. Thank you 😊

Very helpful, looked after us when we broke down. We had an excellent lunchl.

Interesting story lucky end ! I went into the shop because I saw a ( dead ) badger animal on the main road in full peace still. I also stopped by to buy some more flowers like lavender, roses and growing seeds for my children. The shop is really nice and a little to hot over the summer time. They do allow dogs if you ask first as a responsible dog owner. They also have a nice coffee shop if you need a really good coffee are tea. I definitely visit again !

A huge thank you to staff. On my way back from Weymouth and needed to charge my phone. They were brilliant in allowing me to do that. A very well stocked garden Centre with amazing staff. Well done team and a massive thank you from me.

Hardly worth going,so tatty and small.

I felt I had to respond to your negative review. At the moment this shop is in a change over from Wyevale to Dobbies so of course everything is a little confused. But the service and staff are doing their best, and doing it very well under the circumstances. As for not getting your discount, I wonder what you bought?? I have bought quite a few things recently, and despite not being a Dobbies card holder of any sort, got all my discounts. I would suggest you give the shop a second try when things have finally been sorted.

This is the nearest garden centre to where we stay so always pop in. It's not the biggest but has a lovely range of plants, very varied. The cafe is also really lovely, with a nice outside area if you're lucky enough to be there on a sunny day.

My neighbour and I came to the garden centre for a spot of lunch after our plant shopping. The toasted sandwich and coffee were delicious but the staff attitude left a lot to be desired. We had decided to sit on the terrace but the only table available was dirty, however we sat there until another table became available. Sadly the next table was very unsteady and we ended up with coffee spilt everywhere. The staff supplied more coffee and we requested that they move another table into position or level the existing table. The staff were not happy with this request and one member of staff said “ what do you expect if you sit on the terrace”. I felt this was unnecessarily rude - customer service should be everything! When we left following enjoying our sandwich the dirty table had still not been addressed. I will continue to buy my beautiful plants here but will not frequent the restaurant again.

It's becoming a very dated garden centre, very basic cafe too. It could do with a big revamp.

Lots to choose from, the cafe is great with really nice food and coffee.

Great array of plants and fab pet shop within

Good quality and quantity of plants & shrubs, great coffee and cake with a choice of indoor and outdoor seating, Always nice for visit.

Popped in for a rest like and enjoyed afternoon tea

Like many garden centres, overpriced went looking for a plastic rake the prices £40 came home ordered of amazon sadly for £13 I'm very much in supporting local shops but they really should do the same for the people.

The service and food / drink at this cafe is always outstanding, drinks are always served at the perfect temperature and cutlery always exceptionally clean - thank you we will be back! :-D

A slightly smaller Dobbies but really nice to visit, lots of stock, pet store and cafe are very good

Starting to look a bit run down

Shop is great indeed my favorite Dobbies but the cafe no longer serves any breakfast options which I think is a real mistake. They used to do nice sausage baps but not any more it seems!!! I came all the way from Reading to be disappointed. Start serving them again and I'll come back!

Same as all the others this time with 20% off everything. And free hot chocolate for two 🕑.

Called in for a coffee and a midday snack. Disappointed as only had expensive "toasties" or sausage rolls or a limited range of cake. Coffee was ok. Won't be calling again.

Lovely garden centre. Reasonable prices. Nice little coffee shop. Lovely staff.

Very lovely visit, good amount of parking and nice large spacious garden centre. Cafe is a bit small,there is seating outside too. They sell very nice sandwiches, toasted sandwiches and a variety of cakes, but no other hot food that I could tell. There are a variety of goods on offer at reasonable prices ,and a good sized pet centre. I would recommend a visit.

Great variety of healthy looking plants Everything you could need to manage your garden

OK but not the best selection of things,I couldn't get turf,I asked the staff but they couldn't help much.

Lovely gifts and very tasty scones x

Lovely garden centre with cafe, but really quite expensive.

Everything you need from a garden centre chain

Nothing special, we only wanted one specific item. Staff ok but plant stock seemed very tired in places. Felt we could have done better elsewhere.

Good garden centre nice cafe and food. Dogs not allowed in the cafe but seating outside.

Always has what i need. And usually have coffee .toasty and cake.

Coffee shop is very nice. Staff always friendly in here and Dobbies card is great value for drinks. Garden centre a little disappointing. Not a great flower range.

Gardener didn't know what the plants were I was looking for. Then I found them nearby.

Not the best garden centre. Plants looked a bit sad needed watering .

restaurant very limited menu, plant prices becoming too expensive

Good sized centre and car park, good range of plants and equipment at reasonable prices

Plants well presented staff very knowledgeable. Restaurant excellent a nice day out.

Bit expensive but good service plants are good quality

Small garden centre with nice cafe

I always stop here when passing lovely cafe and fog friendly

Staff were great, lots of great priced plants

Love a garden centre and Dobbies is always a satisfying visit

Beautifully presented. Very nice plants and pretty much everything else garden related you could need. They also recycle plant pots and compost bags. Highly recommended.

I hate places like this but came anyway similar in style to most garden centers which means it sells everything from from China. Plants are often an afterthought it's more about selling Easter eggs and and junk employing staff that don't know one plant from another for customers "Instant" disposable gardens.

Good quality in the restaurant coffee and service first class

We visit regularly for a shop and coffee. Plenty of parking and accessible for wheelchair users and prams.

Plenty of parking spaces, nice café.

Very nice but also seemed very expensive to this northerner.

Just moved to the area. Visited for the first time today. Will never set foot again, which is how terrible customer service should be rewarded. . Walked to a door, door opened, walked in.Two older women employees called loudly over to me “That’s the exit NOT the entrance.” Me “Okay - where’s the entrance?” Them (ignoring my question’) “It states very clearly that this is the Exit”. Me “I heard you, where is the entrance?” Them, “urgh, you may as well come now”. Me “Bit jobsworth!” Them “calling after me as I walked in “each time you open the door it makes us cold!”.

It's a nice tidy garden centre but you need a big bank balance to even think about feeding your pets if you use the pets shop it may be high end but a reality check wouldn't go a miss with some different brands being made available

Great that it was open during pandemic. Good assortment of plants and garden tools. The Café is open serving a wide variety of coffees. Always looking forward to my free coffee with my Dobbies Club membership!

They don't sell coal next to one of the busiest canals in the UK because its bad for the environment! But they are quite happy selling plastic Christmas decorations and BBQ charcoal in December! Well done 👏

Good service thanks and Merry Christmas

Great variety of plants and Xmas decorations, cafe was a nice place to drink and have a nice cake. The staff were friendly and helpful

Great if you were coffee cups or tat. Useless as a garden center. Support independent nurseries

Finding the entrance from the car park was a problem as it's at the far end of the building. Good but small café.

My God, looking for house plants is a bind.....and believe it or not, we found that Dobbies, of all places, had the best selection!?! They also allow dogs, and had lots of other plants available, so the purchases were pretty much unavoidable.....boom!

Nice garden centre with plenty of variety. Shops indoors are quite varied as well. They also allow dogs throughout, including in the coffee shop.

Excellent sale on plants at the moment! Some real bargains to be had on dahlias, roses, cottage plants etc. End of summer sale on garden furniture too. Nice cafe with comfy seating as well.

Typical garden centre with a decent cafe and lovely cake.

Nice centre cafe was limited to what was on offer

Dobbies Hungerford. Very helpful and friendly staff.

This really is a great garden centre!!

Lovely Garden Centre on the A4, on our way home from Somerset called in for coffee and cake, Vegan chocolate cake was amazing 👏 😋 Staff throughout the garden centre were very nice and chatty. 50% off goods was a bonus too! Beautiful plants available

Very expensive, £2.45 for a smoothie out of a very small bottle, hardly what I'd call value for money, service wasnt great either , won't be rushing back

We enjoyed a visit to the cafe, just needed a drink

Only went for the cafe which was very disappointing! Outside tables were in very bad condition. Staff were unwelcoming. Wouldn’t recommend it.

The food and drink is now way too expensive for us mere mortals.

Nicely laid out and competitive pricing.

Love the pet centre so much choice and very reasonably priced. Nice selection of plants and gardening items. Also a number of items you wouldn't expect to find. Good service lovely staff. Online down fall the coffee shop couldn't make a cup of tea. Over all definitely worth a visit.

I personally thought this place was expensive for plants etc.

Won’t trade a 5kg gas bottle for a gas bottle in the same group, poor experience

Great plants, variety and they're very healthy. The sales people are very friendly and helpful.

Wanted a couple of hosepipe connectors. Did not have much in stock.

Good range of products but a little pricey.

Excellent. Expensive. Always end up spending too much. Great variety and lovely atmosphere!

Peter, the manager, is an absolute gem. He and his staff are super friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. In particular, his help with an emergency BBQ gas bottle was an absolute family saver! Thanks again!

Went to buy garden furnisher. The manager is so helpful,polite and took our number to call us when its in stock.

Excellent, but rather small Cafe, for such a well stocked Store,

Got most of what we wanted probably spent too much

Good stock of plants and sundries, all at usually high prices as with most garden centres.

Some nice bedding plants a tad on the expensive side.

Nice cozy cafe and great choice of plants

Several plants were on sale for approx £180 each. These were large indoor plants that were onsale in wyvale garden centre bicester for less than half that price.

Lovely garden centre. Had hot chocolate and a slice at the cafe. Lovely staff good customer service. Clean tidy shop

Visited the coffee shop. I ordered hot chocolate and it was delicious.

Not as good as most other centres we have visited

We required a plant that no other Dobbies store had locally, however we rang Hungerford, and asked if they had what we wanted, however they did not, but Peter the manager went above and beyond for us and found one at Andover store, had it picked for us to collect at Hungerford. Amazing service and such a really organised Garden centre, Highly recommended it.

Nice place friendly and helpful staff will go again.

The centre is very well stocked. The plant displays are excellent. The staff are helpful and knowledgeable.

Such a wide range of stock available.. a little expensive but good quality.. also nice cafe for a coffee break.. will go again. Half price Christmas bargains in store

Went for coffee and quick look round but was very disappointed in cafe area as they had run out of China coffee cups and we had to have ours in takeaway cups.Tables full with dirty items and not many clean tables. Over all not the best
