Really excellent garden centre. The restaurant is definitely 5 stars. Staff very friendly and helpful. Food cooked well and served piping hot. No long wait to get seated even though it was packed. No wait for food either. Fantastic

Used to love the great Ulster Fry served here but was sorry to see they now serve the large fry with 2 very small sausages 2 very small eggs 1 spoonful of beans and a few very small pieces of soda & potatoe bread. This is no longer a large fry, it's basically a small fry. My wife ordered a small fry and it was extremely small. It tasted very nice, the restaurant is beautiful, staff are very friendly. Most Men expect a large fry when they order, or simply add extra large fry for MEN.

I find it is always a delight to visit Dundonald (Secret Garden) Nurseries - well stocked, good prices on plants, and healthy plants. Plenty of 'nic-nacs' for the home at normal prices. Some nice clothing (but not much) forgot genders.

We went to the secret garden at Dundonald nursery today. Such a treat. We opted for afternoon tea. It was delicious. Great food excellent service and so much food. The price was excellent. The choice of afternoon tea was great. You got to choose your sandwich filling so you liked everything. We will definitely be back.

David one of the gardeners was a great ambassador for their premises and my wife and I were in awe of his knowledge concerning some of the plants in his care. Well worth a visit. Great improvements to the parking by the way.

Here today and visited the restaurant which was very pleasant...food was good but we were with a very elderly friend in a wheelchair who was refused a kids meal. This friend has the appetite of a bird and ended up having just a scone and coffee. It would have been very thoughtful if they could have been a bit more flexible.

Went during lockdown needed some garden therapy now the set up one way system is good but I think more spacing between plants could have been applied bit wick the way if person in front stops to look at plants your stuck good the way you get hand sanitizer on entering friendly staff at checkouts and forklift driver friendly and helpful with heavy loads and takes trolleys away my visit was pleasant until I was leaving I asked staff to get me compost I thought I asked and paid for 3 bags no just two an elderly woman member of staff kept trying to explain ..no you only paid for 2 not my mistake she then proceeded to look at my receipt and argued with the forklift driver made me feel like I was stealing I gave her an extra 5 quid to pay for the bag I needed will I be back no I spent money there today buying plants and compost will stick to my usual garden centre from now on ....

I called into the Nursery today and received the best of customer care from Liz who helped me choose the most suitable plants for this time of year for my pots. She also assisted me with picking out a gift for a difficult to buy for friend. It was a pleasure to shop where the customer is given such personal and friendly attention.
