Fosseway Garden Centre in Cotswold

Great place for food in the restaurant very good. Very good garden centre also.

Great variety of gifts, plants, clothing etc. Loads of parking. Great restaurant too. Be warned. Cash free buying. Sadly for my children, this has meant they cannot independently buy items with their pocket money here.

The family all enjoyed this garden centre. We loved the houseplants, but didn't like being manipulated around the complete merchandise circuit which was enormous.

45 to an 60 minutes waiting not worth it I had to sit on the floor and wait was not inpressed

Lovely place. So many beautiful plants.

Took the grandkids to the playbarn. They had a lovely time, completely exhausted ages ,2,4,5

If you want just a coffee don’t bother, I rate places by their friendliness to everyone, awful place , I’d had a really tiring journey and just wanted a coffee, got told there was at least a 20 minute wait very rudely by lady at coffee machine last Sunday, rest of staff looked embarrassed . Oh and just to make things difficult they have an ikea style layout but with no shortcuts so you have to weave your way round the whole of the place to get in and out, I was really sad as I used to live locally years ago. ( lovely lady at prey a mange in moterway services was lovely and gave me a free coffee when she saw how stressed I was but this was an hour and a half later.

Always 5 stars. A great place with a fabulous restaurant. A real go to place with my mum. Getting ready for Christmas so everything looks sparkly.

Fabulous shopping. A wonderous and extensive array of mini cacti! Gorgeous mix and match women’s clothes and accessories. Stunning food stuffs in the shop. And really excellent fish and chips and service in the restaurant! My granddaughter (11) and I LOVE visiting this place!

Very annoyed that the restaurant waitress allowed a dog in the restaurant and on the seat next to its owner, there is clearly a dog friendly area on the other side, but they were not asked to move. Not everybody is a dog lover, and I am sick and tired of them having to be everywhere, especially food establishments, it’s very unhygienic. I am right in thinking if it were a child, and there was a child friendly area,they would have been made to sit in the child friendly area? When I asked the waitress for a manager to speak to, she told me the manager wasn’t available. Ruined an otherwise nice time.

What a lovely place. The food was gorgeous and my cake even better. Friendly staff and when asked for assistance, they were all to friendly to help. My dog was also welcome and they were nice to her too. We passed this on our way through from holiday. So did a u-turn to go in. So so glad we did.

Clean and tidy garden centre. Well laid out and good stock levels. The cafe is excellent.

Stopped off for coffee and cake. Very expensive and only average.

Great way to spend a few house hours shopping

Amazing place..The best Garden centre We've ever visited!..Like an Alladdin's cave..

Such a great find. We like Blue Diamond garden Centres and this is a prime example of one. Excellent produce. Excellent and friendly staff. Lovely restaurant. Great parking.

Fantastic place. Food yummy. Staff great

A really nice garden centre, staff are so knowledgeable and helpful.

A beautiful, spacious, spotless and well organised store with in-store home items, clothing, luxury and special products. Although a tad pricey, one can expect unique items and top quality. Toys, confectionery and very nice cards are available. The outdoor entertainment area offers excellent garden furniture, barbecues and more. The garden centre has a good selection of plants and outdoor gardening/landscaping goods and tools. David Moore butchery is located near the foods. It is an excellent butcher with top quality meat. There is also a very nice indoor restaurant and playcentre for children. Parking is plentiful and spacious, although it is a popular centre. Convenient to nearby Aldi too. Highly recommended.

Lovely garden centre with a huge range of products and plants. The food section is really good and they have a full butchers service in house which is fantastic. Staff are very friendly

Unfortunate experience in soft play whereby an older child punched my toddler in the face, then repeatedly kicked me in the stomach as I tried to help my son out of the play equipment. The soft play manager lacked the training and capability to manage the situation, so sadly we were forced to leave as it wasn’t safe for young toddlers to play on this occasion. Aside from the assault the soft play is always clean and the caregiver seating environment is quite pleasant compared to many soft play centres.

If you want to spend an enjoyable few hours browsing for plants, clothes, housewares, groceries, garden decor and stop to have lunch or a cup of tea, this is the place. Amazing!

Since being taken over it’s lost all its charm. Ate in the cafe, ridiculous prices, awful service and the food was either burnt, wrong or looked like it had been sitting out for days.

Always friendly staff. Good food in Timothy's. Wide selection of all sorts of things & a good food hall. Can't go wrong with a visit here.

Although the garden centre is lovely with nice restaurant there is no pedestrian access which is a shame! It should have a decent access by foot as well!

Really lovely cafe with great menu. The Victoria sponge is delicious! Would highly recommend.

Lovely garden centre, we love coming to look around. Great food from the restaurant with a good selection.

Huge garden centre which was very beautifully merchandised. Cafe had some quality food but if you sat in the main bit you had table service, but if you sat outside you had to go to a till point and order which was hard work because there wasn't anyone on the till and when we found someone it was a bit of a debacle trying to order something as the till didn't quite match what was on the menu. And if you want cake you get it first and then sit at a table to order a drink? I'm glad it wasn't that busy or I think we would have given up. Also I think £12.95 for some gem lettuce and a bit of goats cheese and one bit of beetroot cut into quarters was a bit steep. My husband's quiche looked great though!

The customer service in the garden machinery dept is poor given they claim to be a Stihl Dealer. Over two weeks to get an item I could buy on eBay. Twice given the excuse part stuck in the warehouse so I can't collect it. Three times failed to ring me back as agreed.

Great dog-friendly garden centre. Look out for the tables at the far end of the café reserved for customers with their dogs.

Very posh, lots of lovely plants, gifts and houseware to buy. Had a pit stop, gorgeous cake

Great place to shop and eat, kids play area too. Food was served very quickly, good sized portions and reasonably priced.

An amazing place! Fantastic range of high quality things, a wonderful playbarn for children and a really nice dog friendly restaurant that serves tasty food.

Extensive selection, reasonable prices

This garden centre is now a Blue Diamond one, it's set out to take you through all of the lovely displays. The restaurant is bright and airy, the Sunday roast was absolutely delicious. Would give it 6 stars if I could!

Well I'm on holiday... fancied a coffee so popped into this garden centre it's well worth a visit it has everything food clothes, lots of ideas for presents and lots more, it's got the best house plant department I've seen and of course outside plants spent a long time here loved it! Oh and yes bought a hanging house plant and an agapanthus 😍

We visited this garden center be cause it claimed to be dog friendly. It’s a lovely place and you can take dogs into most parts but not into the cafe. We have visited other garden centers which have an area of the cafe that is dog friendly. If we had known beforehand we wouldn’t have gone there. It’s a nice place and worth visiting if you have a dog and don’t want to use the cafe.

Is not well set out. The old ace was better. It all over the place

Very interesting breakfast Asked for bacon to be well done and got burnt bacon Hash browns had sat so long in the area to be kept warm that they shattered when you put your fork in to them

Beautiful garden centre. The plants are great quality and well maintained.

Halfway stop off & lovely cafe & shop

Nice centre and cafe too with lots of various gardening verities

The gareden center very good, butcher was pleasant and prices of meat comparable, had lunch food was good but very small portions for the prices they charge overall good experience

Clean tidy shop beautiful plants a good place to visit

More than a garden centre. Can spend ages looking at everything.

This is a lovely large garden centre to look around........It has something for everyone with all of its different departments inside..... With a large food hall full of local produce etc,a big restaurant,a clothes area ,garden machinery and of course all of your plants and everything you will need for your garden......A great place to pop into for a good look around....👍

This garden centre is now within the Blue Diamond group of garden centres. The quality and variety of plants are excellent, plus lots of variety of non gardening products. All in all a very good shopping experience.

The opening hours for the restaurant say it’s open till 4pm on Sunday. We arrived at 15:05 to be told we couldn’t have food only drinks and cakes. As we then didn’t have time to go somewhere else to eat and then come back to buy the plants we wanted they missed out on our custom completely.

53 of us descended on the centre yesterday afternoon..21st May, after a lovely coach trip around the Cotswolds villages. We had the most AMAZING afternoon tea ever! Tracey the Restaurant Manager and Debbie the Head Chef looked after us so well, and couldn't do enough for us. The food was perfection, and all of us agreed. Then a wander round the rest of the centre...well the choice was overwhelming, and prices quite reasonable. Would recommend anyone to go there, and definitely eat in the cafe/restaurant if you can't manage afternoon tea! We will be booking again very soon!!

A lovely garden centre with a wide variety of plants and gifts

Do NOT, I repeat do NOT do the weekend cleaning job here !! I got offered the job via Facebook after posting on moreton in marsh’s group asking for full time jobs. They replied saying they had a cleaning job for Saturday and Sunday 2 and half hours each day £12 an hour. I’ve turned up and both days only been given an hours work !!! Why advertise a 5 hour weekly job if it’s going to be only 2 hours? To make matters worse when I’ve quit because of finding a much better more hours job, the people who hired me have refused to pay me and have blocked me ! I am outraged at how rude these people are ! Please if you are looking for a job don’t apply to the cleaning job here unless you don’t want to be paid !

Lovely (if rather pricey) meal, good coffee. I love the sense of a ' big space' and staff great! Go.

Not as good since being taken over. Far to commercialised. Having to walk in a deliberately designed zig zag, through the merchandise on entry, just feels like a compliance exercise. For those who struggle to walk and need to get to the cafe, it's a waste of time. Food was mediocre too, mass produced slop.

We enjoyed looking round here so much, we totally forgot what we went in for.

It was a great place but I retract it. The automated customer service offers to price match. I quoted all details but as its temporarily out of stock, they won't price match, even though other colours are in stock. None of this is in their small print. Really sad to hear this. We go so often to shop and eat there.

Fantastic variety of good on sale but the cafe prices are horrendous.

I cannot believe I purchased on 9th May Salted Caramel Flapjack ...didn't look at the Best Before Date which my son pointed out was10.09.20. !!!!Agast ...???

Lots to see wonderful variety of goods .1 stop shop.

To make this a 5, please improve the frequency that the toilets are cleaned, especially on a busy bank holiday, it's the only thing that lets it down. Really good coffee. Latte (large) £3.45. Extensive range in the restaurant. Good cakes. Butcher, deli, ladies fashion, kiddies toys, and of course plants.

Was a lovely garden centre but sold to a chain, now you run the gauntlet of "gifts and clothing" to get to the garden stuff. The staff seem miserable, if you want something only certain people can help, unlike before where the staff could help with most things and products they used to stock no longer available. Use it now if I'm desperate.

Since being taken over by Blue Diamond its not as nice an experience. You get ferried through the whole place like an IKEA, so you can't skip sections. Walking through endless racks of women's clothing and shoes, bath accessories, children's toys, etc, to get to plants, garden equipment, and composts. The butchers remains outstanding however.

An enormous range of plants, gardening accessories, children's toys & things for the home/kitchen. All very neatly laid out. But, typical of these places.... it's expensive! The children's play area is popular too for families with young children & has a good adjacent restaurant. Good sized free car parking too. Will certainly visit again.

Improved greatly since our last visit with new layout in store. Always a good visit, especially the very good cafe / restaurant.

Fossway garden centre has undertaken some great changes and is now owned by Blue Diamond group. The layout of the centre is very good and easy to navigate. Today's visit was for a light lunch in which I can highly recommend their "Signature Burger 🍔. Lots of menu choice including a separate children's menu. Popular and busy on weekends, wheelchair and dog friendly to. Ample parking available. Has an lawn mower specialist with the main store and a farm shop. Can highly recommend the in store butcher for his delicious Tomberhawk steaks Plant 🪴 range has expanded since our last visit. Good range of good quality garden furniture. Well worth a visit.

Love the friendly staff, lots to buy here but also a great gardening section full of amazing inspiration.

Very disappointing visit to the restaurant, I have visited many times over a few years, in the last 6 months it has been very hit and miss, but today will sadly be my last visit! Claims to be table service, yet no menus available, took a seat, took 10 mins for someone to notice I was even there, another 5 mins for someone to find a menu,.waited 10 mins for someone to take an order, my granddaughters food of beans and cheese arrived very quickly along with her drink, my tea arrived after 5 mins but no scone, jam and cream, I waited and waited and waited, then go fed up of waiting so decided to leave, I stopped at the coffee/till point and asked for a refund for the missing items, I was then told you have to collect your own items, ok, so why ask my choice of jam and scone and not mention that I had to collect myself, also crisps missing from order, maybe I had to collect them too? Are you table service or self service? Either way please make it clearer, I appreciate it was busy, I work in hospitality, so understand the pressure, but if your system isn't working, from time it takes to get someone to serve you, to items arriving is in excess of 40 mins, your system is failing.

Nice garden centre with lots of great products. The new layout at the entrance is a nightmare for trollies though! Sometimes trollies are in the plants area, but if it’s busy they’ve run out. This means you need to manoeuvre a trolley through the main entrance and via the women’s clothing and butchers.

Lovely place. First time coming here, and disaster struck, didn't know my bracelet had come undone and I lost 6 mom pandora charms. Rang them and was told they had got one of them but couldn't find the rest. As you can imagine they are of great sentimental value. if anyone else found any charms please please let me know. xx

Play barn session ends 11.30. Restaurant refuses to take orders for the kids menu until exactly 12 noon. Joined up thinking? Took our business elsewhere.

Just the facts here. Table service, without being allocated a table. Which means that you find a table, wait half an hour whilst they serve people who have just arrived, as there is no queuing system and they can't easily identify people waiting to order. I also saw food being delivered to tables that still had dirty crockery from previous occupants. If it were France there would be a riot. Here we just accept it.

Lots of everything. Warm and cosy.

I find that since you have taken over bearing in mind I am a local, that your plant prices have rocketed. I mean a cucumber plant £6-99 the same for a small tomato plant. unless the prices come down or you have a tray of 4 for that price I shall for plants be taking my custom elsewhere. This country is trying to encourage people to grow there own veg, with prices like that how can they afford to do it. I saw this garden centre start up from a small poly tunnel to what it was before it was taken over by Blue Diamond. I would like to say though that the staff are very helpful and we know it is not them who set the prices.

A garden centre that has everything you need for the garden and some nice stuff for the home. With a good layout that walks you through the entire building, with a good food hall layout including a Butcher's department. And of course, like most big garden centres, a restaurant with a vast variety of food and drinks. And plenty of parking.

So disappointed in the change to restaurant food, breakfast used to be the best around, but not anymore, just tasteless.

Usual Blue Diamond. Clean and tidy with nice displays but has got silly expensive now. Restaurant quiet but expensive for food

A good garden centre just outside Moreton in Marsh. All usual 'departments' ie clothing, gifts, homestyle etc. in addition to plants and other gardening items. Also a good café.

It's great having such a well stocked garden centre so close by in Moreton. The butchers is a real highlight and the new owners have invested substantially in the plants area - the displays and choices are excellent. I have one gripe though...forcing your customers through a defined path at the beginning, as if it's a motorway service station, does not create a good first impression. This is even worse when trying to navigate racks of clothing and tight corners with any of the larger garden trollies - and very frustrating trying to do this when the store is busy! Please reverse this annoying layout and/or provide adequate space for trollies in the garden area itself, so those of us who want to just buy plants and compost can pick a trolley up there.

Large garden centre, just outside the town of Moreton in Marsh. This site has good vehicle access, but not so good pedestrian access the footpath being grass and mud and directly along the main road (no pavement) The centre itself is typical of garden centres, selling much more than just plants and the like. Good produce if a little on the expensive side.

Just like most garden centres with a visit if you like gardening

Used to come here weekly for lunch and to buy toys/gifts for our sons from the brilliant selection on offer. We gave the place a chance after the takeover but after another visit today - wow- what have you done. The toy section has whittled down to a pathetic Collection of stuff not worth buying. Where are the siku toys and cars?? The whole place has lost its soul. Do the bosses not realise that getting rid of the toy section means there is no pull for parents/grandparents and families to come to the centre and spend money? An absolute mistake. And as for the funnel system through the dated clothes section… this whole place needs a rethink. Such a shame. It’s used to be so good.

Lovely clean place to visit, great restaurant

We popped in for lunch, super service, food and everyone was lovely. Will definitely be back, lovely garden centre too.

Very well worth a visit,there is a fantastic Dele and food section there.

Very nice done restaurant very good lovely manager and staff very clean. Food good I'm glad they have kept the name and took cash as that was one thing that put me off going before card only .. one thing l think they need to keep an eye on our the toilet . Can't believe what people do in them it seems to be a problem in a lot of places. We will be back. My friend is in a wheelchair which l must say yours were easy to push and get around the shop and restaurant . Well done

Having been a customer for years I am sad to say the food isn't anywhere near as nice as it used to be. Our breakfast was a disappointing mix of foods at different temperatures, over cooked bacon and black pudding, cold toast. It looked and tasted like food that had been prepared quite some time before, perhaps kept warms until ordered. It was like a budget hotel breakfast. Sad as it had a home cooked vibe we loved. We also ordered a babychino and were served a normal size cup of boiling hot milk which is so very dangerous (and impractical) for the small children they are for. I always check the temp but I worry someone might not. Staff were very helpful, it was clean and tidy. I'd be back for a coffee and cake but I doubt much else. They have also adopted a frustrating IKEA style entrance forcing you to zigzag round plants and clothing before you can access toilets, butchers, play barn, Cafe. Seriously frustrating when you're disabled or using crutches. The shop and product range looked great. The new makeover is very nice.

Great garden centre staff were very helpful

Too far to walk - need to pass too much stuff to get to needed goods

Had poached egg on toast, eggs were barely cooked, whites were even runny, the toast & eggs were cold. I brought an extra sausage they didn't know it was for the dog, it was cold & hard on the outside & pink in the middle unedible for a person to eat

My husband and I brought my elderly mother here in September. She lives in Moreton and likes nothing more than a mooch around a garden centre and a coffee and cake! They were very busy, in the middle of a refit and getting all their Christmas trees etc out on the shop floor. We had food in the cafe which was very nice and then on the way out Mum decided she'd like to buy a new Christmas tree. She chose the one she wanted and the staff were all very helpful in finding it in the stockroom and bringing it onto the shop floor so we could pay and take it away - Mum doesn't drive so took advantage of us visiting with the car. Fast forward to mid Decemberish when Mum wanted to put her tree up and found that one of the connections to work the lights wasn't working. She called Fosseway and they couldn't have been more helpful, in fact they sent someone to her home to try and fix it. When they couldn't they returned to the store and then back to Mum's with a new part and hey presto....her new tree was fully lit! I'd just like to say thank you to all involved for going above and beyond to help Mum. What wonderful staff you have 😄

Quite a useful Garden Centre, I've visited it several times when I have passed through always buying something and using the very nice tearoom. Think I would use this centre a lot more if Iived locally because there is such wide variety goods to buy. Revisited February 2023.

Great place to visit and a fantastic children's indoor play area

Normally very good foods good prices are OK most of the staff are excellent with exception to some very rude grumpy old lady on the till manners cost nothing I'm half your age with double the respect try it sometime 😀

Very busy - lovely displays Although the lady that served us seemed a bit subdued - not in the Christmas Spirit!

A breath of fresh air, a good selection of goods to suit all budgets

Popped in just to browse whilst on holiday and ended up buying Christmas lights. The staff were very helpful, looking in the warehouse when I couldn't find the item I wanted and very patient when I subsequently changed my mind and swapped my original purchase for something else! Prices were competitive, in fact what I bought was actually more expensive on line. Also have a lovely clothing range. Didn't actually look in the gardening department!

Vast improvement and fantastic smells from the scented candles, great Christmas displays only trouble was that when we went on Monday there was no bread available nor any meat pies from the butchers.

Really comprehensive shop selling much more than a typical garden centre. You can get food, lovely butchery, clothes & Christmas decorations at this time of year.

I did not get a good look round as met freand

Layout very confusing and difficult to navigate in all not a good experience

Xmas products nice to peruse. Especially the santa that goes up and down the stairs
