Hampsons PlantWorld Cafe in Wakefield

Cafe requires more staff as people's orders were getting mixed up and queuing for a long time for drinks . Staff seemed under pressure and disheartened .

We were very disappointed with the quality of food I had a tiny piece of frozen fish lightly fried the frozen chips were tasteless my partner had a beef and onion sandwich and had to remove lots of fat off the meat overall it was very poor and very poor value, won’t be eating there again 🤨

Staff friendly food good scandalous to have to pay for a tiny amount of cream 60p £3.60 for an Americano most expensive around Wakefield. Maybe we’ll try else where. Shame

Very good centre, not just a garden centre but a foodstore, section to buy animals etc and a cafe.

Go here quite often and always enjoy the variety. Just sometimes wish they would give a price for things instead of reduced/half price/ 2 for 1/ sale item etc. Still will be going again though. Cream scones are big enough to share. Often have free ice cream too later in the day. Recommended.

Great selection of plants, trees, garden furniture and everything else for your outdoor space. When tired of shopping they have an excellent cafe with hot food available or just coffee and cake 🙂

We've been visiting Hampsons for more than twenty years now even though it is thirty miles away. Often we would visit two or three times a month buying plants, compost, ornaments, garden furniture, pet supplies, flowers bouquets, Christmas decorations, flowers bouquets and food from the deli. We have watched it change over the years but over the last 12 to 18 months it has changed for the worst. We travelled there as we could get everything we needed, and a lot we didn't need, for a good price. And, with it being at such a good price, we always finished up buying so much more than we set out for! Unfortunately if all seems to have gone downhill. Gone are the good bargains, the 50% off marked priced and bargain red tag plants. You can get red tags but the last lot we bought failed miserably once home. Plants are now the same price as anywhere else but not always the best looked after. The MiracleGro was actually £3 more than my local garden centre! Plus, there just in not the same choice as there was. The cafe, although not the poshest, used to be really good value and a proper plate full! That's gone too. Prices have gone up, quality and quantity have gone down. Car parking can be a nightmare at busy times. The layout is......??? Bizarre! Doors have been blocked off so you can't follow any sort of flow. Once you've gone through the checkouts you can't get back in but at this point you realise that you've missed a section of the shop!! Talking of the checkouts, on our last visit my husband queried the bill. After much tutting and rolling of eyes they told us to empty our trolley out to recheck it all (making us look like criminals) and yes, we had been OVERCHARGED by £12!!! No wonder they have signs up saying mistakes won't be rectified once you've left the shop!!! Really feel it's let itself down I'm afraid we won't be back in a hurry.

Good prices can buy and bag a few of these and a few of those ie seed potatoes and onion setts not left with alot you dont need.

A very busy and strangely laid out store. So much to explore Some good sale items Some prices can be a lil high Fresh fruit and veg on sale Seasonal items - Halloween and Christmas

Wonderful place, lovely to have watched it grow over the years. Family owned, lovely people. Love the wool shop, great range, great cafe, the best cream scones in the take home bakery.

A great garden centre, lots of plants, trees, furniture, in fact they sell all sorts. Deli, pound store, cafe, toilets. Large free car park, can get busy. They sell live animals - Fish, birds, rats etc

Lovely atmosphere, great scones, really awful coffee, try tea next time.

We like going to Hampsons. It's not high class, but there is variety and a very good cafe

Local to me and excellent service for plants and excellent coffee shop to boot

Great place to visit can get carried away with a large choice at great prices

Love Hampsons, never leave without buying some plants!

Decided to call in for the first time today and have a coffee in the ice cream cafe, we paid £7 for 2 coffees, my husband got a latte which I think was just milk as there didn't seem to be any coffee in it at all, however he may have got the better deal as after I tasted my flat white that I got and found it to be an extremely vile tasting coffee, it was also quite weak but the taste alone was enough to put us off and we left them both, we won't be returning and certainly don't recommend. The staff serving however were pleasant.

If I could give zero I would. Bad tempered staff waiting for food what was cold it's terrible. Avoid it's that bad. The breakfast is terrible with poor produce and bacon like rubber.

One of my favourite places to have a morning. Lots of things..,plants, flowers,food,cafe,housewai

Been today was appallung cafe had nothing in stock that we required despite having a butcher and deli on site whole layout confusing with uneven floors disabled toilet up a steep ramp not easily negotiable with wheelchairs notuces everywhere do not do this do not do that only acceptable thing was coffee and ice cream staff lovely and friendly however

A very poor experience in the cafe today, we took our 94 Yr old dad out for lunch. There was a private function on so we understood there would be a wait for food. However tables were clearing and new customers were being served before us, with the same order as we had ordered. We waited an hr for our food, which we felt was unacceptable for a 94yr old.

Good garden centre with plenty of choice.

Marvellous signage! Has everything you need and more...

Brill place everything to buy...

More than just a very good garden centre, They sell almost everything here and it's not expensive either.

We got some plants but the prices have gone up considerably.

Helpful staff and we got what we wanted 🙂

Excellent place to go for your plants and garden ornaments

Food seems fresh and well cooked. Setting is nice. Poor hygiene lets this place down…. Glasses, cups and tea cups are genuinely filthy

My wife and I are regular visitors to Hampsons. They probably have the most reasonable prices for plants and other garden products in the Wakefield area. In addition, amongst other things, they have a great cafe and butchery, bakery and green grocery departments. My favourite is the ice cream parlour which also serves teas, coffees and homemade cakes and patisserie.

Plenty of plants to choose from and a good cafe.

I love to go in this place only to see Charly😀😀 but yes.. there is very lots of flowers for garden. Old style shop 😀 not like usual..

If Carlserg made garden centres.

IKEA of garden centres. Seems big but not a lot of choice. Plants on high racks so hard to get. Very busy. Parking limited at busy times.

Interesting place, reasonable prices

Its massive, could have spent the whole day there

Best butcher, best meat and tastiest pork pies in Yorkshire.

One of Wakefields little gems. Friendly staff with good knowledge of plants ect. Beautiful food in the cafe, butchers, bakery well stoked and displayed.

Fantastic place with a bit of everything. Great cream teas

Nice choice of plants for beginners, and plenty space to walk around

Went to the cafe. Sundays at Hampsons is a nightmare for parking. Takes twenty minutes to park up. Then we went into the cafe. Ran out of most things, it was 12.30 on a Sunday so not sure how. Was forced into the cheese and bacon burger which was bland and dry, even the chips were pretty poor. Then there was the sad coleslaw that came with it. Certainly wouldn't bother again for food

Been visiting for years, from when it was a nursery just selling plants. Now, it is a massive garden centre with a large restaurant, instead of a small cafe. I have bought many plants from there and have had great success with most of them. They now have a carvery which is open on Wednesdays as well as the usual Sundays. Be warned, I went this week and it was heaving, I only just managed to park my car!

Great place, huge selection of plants, reasonable prices. The home cooked quiche was delicious, can't wait to try pie and mash.

Loads of stuff, everything you need

Wide choice of products plants , fruit and veg, butchers, bakery, wool, gift cards , ice cream parlour , tropical and and fish plus supplies and tanks. More stuff, good price but you need to go look around

Good selection of plants, which can be average price to expensive. I managed to find some well priced Jasmine plants when they were either sold out or ridiculously expensive elsewhere. There is so much more than plants for sale, including homeware, cheap miscellaneous items, cards/banners, and seasonal shops, aswell as a restaurant, ice cream parlour, aquatics and pets.

Used to go here a lot pre covid but my last experience I thought prices were too high. In comparison to Tong Garden Centre Hampsons now definitely more expensive!

If you want some plants here's the place you will need a sat-nav to navigate around there are so many, also signs on every possible attachment if you're not sure what your looking at😄. Large cafe and seating plenty. Also an indoor shop that sells just about everything a bit like pound land. Rough around the edges but sells plants and more! A regular visitor 👍

It was ok apart from it being worse than Ikea for trying to find the exit!

First time visiting for food today. Had fish and chips. Fish was lovely but the chips were cooked on outside raw on the inside. Should have maybe chosen something else as there was food left on another table when we arrived - what looked like fish n chips. Chips not eaten either.Such a shame as the place looks lovely such a disappointment.

Firstly I want to thank the ladies of the Floristry department. I was in Hampson's on Friday when I had a minor emergency. The ladies of the Floristry dept. were most helpful and saved my embarrassment. Once again let me thank them. They are wonderful! Great Value from the potted plant dept. My wife got loads of bargains. Most definitely recommend. 5 Stars.

Come here for tropical fish, they are reasonably priced and in really good condition. Rest of the garden centre is a wonderland to look around, had some good things from the butchers department too. Cafe is good too.

Absolutely brilliant garden centre. Well worth travelling for an hour to get there. Excellent food.

Met friends for lunch Quiche was gorgeous as usual. Found garden items I was looking for and browsed the many other things on sale.

The staff haven't got a clue about their products, most of the shrubs I went for were poorly looked after and wilted and to top it all their prices were way too much, poundland which is on your left as you enter seems to be there main interest, I left empty handed and disappointed 😞 😕

It's OK. It's quite expensive for outdoor plants etc.. Though I did buy some absolutely gorgeous fruits, a punnet of strawberries for £2 and some juicy soft ripe peaches for £1.75. I would go back for the fruit alone. We went to the cafe and had a sweet treat,enjoyable.

I always enjoy visiting here. A wide range of plants but also many other departments too. I find Hampsons to offer good value for money. The deli and cafe are also very good. The service is also excellent here, for example they always offer to carry heavy items to your car which is a nice touch.

Car parking can verge on the chaotic and navigating around the store exhausting.

Great garden centre, lots of plants, flowers, pots etc

Wow what a place. Did not expect the size and content. Lovely day out.

Just been for a wander around the garden center at hampsons plant world gone a bit expensive, and also as it was a wensday it was carvery day so plumped for two large ones ,however food was a disgrace cold and un cooked gravy like water veg all raw and cold ,price 12.50 each ,we complained and got our 25 nicker back and won't return

Parking is a nightmare but the staff are very helpful

Great garden centre with an extremely reasonably priced onsite cafe. Plenty of bargains to be found!

Fantastic place has everything under one roof, good plants at reasonable prices and lots of other ev ery day items to pick up as well

Staff rude and disrespectful tills old fashioned and slow stock was good will not go back unless absolutely necessary

If you like overpriced plants & dodgy parking places then this is the place for you. I can't think why this place is so popular other than there's nothing around to challenge it. It has a 'pound' shop where nothing is a quid. The food shop is extremely expensive. Most of the stuff in there you'd probably get cheaper at B&Q if you drive 5 minutes down the road. It's a rip off most of the stuff in there.

Huge variety of plants plus gift shop and much more. Lovely restaurant although one or two of the staff could have been more on the ball whuch would have made the service much better.

Need to sort out access and car parking, it's a nightmare.

Very good and very big garden centre. Took all the time I had to look around and it was amazing with what they had in all the space.

Car park is a nightmare. Lots of plants, decent price, pretty much you can get everything for you garden in this place.

Love this place, competitive prices and a huge choice of quality plants.

The products that are being sold for small animals are unsafe. The bare minimum hamster cage size is 100cm x 50cm- none of the cages sold here come anywhere close to that size. Hamsters balls are being sold which hamsters can get limbs trapped in, there's a lack of ventilation and they have little control over them so they are very stressful items for them. Hampsons is quite unclean and could do with an update to becone more modern. The houseplants are very affordable

Great place for all your plant needs and a lot more so call in and give it a try.

Love the variety of all different products

Great garden centre and much more

Would have been 5 stars but cafe bit pricey

Another great place, not just a garden centre, a wide range of stuff for all occasions, even a deli counter.

Good prices once you battle your way past the food section. Confusing layouts mean it's not straightforward to find things

Good prices good products excellent staff & service

Good garden centre lots of choice Staff always seem stressed though and not as friendly as other places

We have been several times to the garden centre which is great but the cafe needs a major overhaul we had bacon it tasted like it had been cooked yesterday it was rock hard, we have had meals and have not been nice but keep giving them the benefit of the doubt I doubt we’ll have anymore food which is a great shame as the place overhaul is brilliant I have seen other diners take breakfasts back and get their money back, I would rather wait for it to be freshly cooked please take notice

Great prices and helpful staff 👍

Lots of interesting stock, ended up buying all sorts!

Fantastic range of plants bigger place than I thought. Lovely cafe as well

Went to get plants for greenhouse, very poor and disappointed not be going back 😭

Staff need to be brought up to speed about the company policy in the cafe, for example to charge or not to charge 60p for a drop of cream for the coffees which is ridiculous as your not having the milk, it depends who serves you on wether your charged or not

Love this place. Always grab a bargain.

Some great bargains on this weekend

Fantastic forgotten how good it is

Pie day, very disappointing,as buy pies from fresh counter and always very pleased, but this mince pie poor, mash dry, garden peas not cooked enough so hard.Was really looking forward to this ,but we were both very disappointed .

Without doubt, widest range, best prices, happiest friendly staff….a pleasure to visit!

Wow just amazing Like you want everything in it to buy for your garden and at good prices as

Went for lunch with a friend and arrived at 12.30. Went straight to the cafe and asked for quiche and chips. Sorry no quiche. Ok can I have steak pie please. Sorry we don’t have any pies. This was at 12.30 lunch time not 5pm tea time after a full day. Basically I ended up having a bowl of soup. Very disappointed ☺️

On arriving at the garden centre notice how tight the parking was. Got into the centre it looked very nice butchers cake stall, we decided to go for breakfast before we shopped what a very strange set up. Firstly got a table ordered our breakfast a tea & a coffee paid for items, then waited for ages for drinks at the end of the counter like the rest of customers Our food came first !! The cutlery was dirty cleaned with serviette. When we did get our drinks teapot with hot in was dirty could do with a good clean, coffee terrible, bacon was tuff never tasted sausage like that ever, egg over cooked chopped tomatoes were bitter black small bits in the beans, toast rock hard & still no drinks!!!! While we was sat there we noticed a man waiting for his drinks too, a young lad went up to him & tried to give him his breakfast, the man explained he was waiting for drinks so he put it back on the hot, eventually he got his drink & asked for his breakfast, a few minutes later the man took his breakfast back & complained wanted it replacing the kitchen staff didn’t look happy about this. The worse breakfast ever would not recommend at all. The whole stimulation could do with a revamp of counters & some organised support so it runs smoothly. Looking at the quality of food Over priced for the quality of food One thing we did see was the young staff cleaning tables was doing a very good job I have to rate a one to be kind

Lovely time spent looking at the fish

Good variety of stock and lots of it. Prices are good, I come a long way passing two garden centres to shop here,

Visited this garden centre yesterday and absolutely loved it. Great selection of plants trees and pots at good prices 👍

Good choice of products good prices

Great value for money and knowledgeable staff

I don't think there's much you wouldn't find here, it seems to sell almost everything !
