Redfox Coffee Shop in South Tyneside - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

After witnessing some disgusting behaviour today I will never step foot in this place ever again… how I never said anything I don’t know!! The owner screamed at a young female member of staff infront of numerous customers, the way he spoke to her was terrible, I dread to think what goes on daily, he is nothing but a bully and I hope the mother of this young lady knows her daughter is being spoken to like this!! She would have only been about 17 maybe 18 absolute disgrace!!!

Bought a tea, cappuccino and 2 fruit scones . Scones stale !! Could eat them . Fell apart to crumbs when I tried to butter them , they were that dry . Then asked to clear our table as we left, sorry I don’t work there that’s your job . Won’t return, standards dropped

I like cheese scones and would select a cheese scone rather than a piece of cake. Redfox should not serve cheese scones that are not fresh. A really unpleasant experience. The scone was not edible.

Family of 7 for Sunday lunch. Can't fault the experience at all. Great food. Friendly attentive staff. Clean and well presented :0]

It was surprisingly quiet on our visit today to look for some hanging tomatoes. They weren’t quite ready to sell so we settled for some border plants. High quality and tremendous choice, the nursery is huge and sells everything you could need for your garden. It also has a lovely restaurant.

Fabulous indoor and outdoor doing areas! All the food is home made and freshly prepared! Lovely staff and delicious food!

For a start the reply’s from the staff at red fox on this site are so rude , people have given their views and given an honest opinion of the experience they had at Red Fox and just like the members of staff serving, the reply’s to our comments are so rude , I haven’t come across a friendly person serving on my recent visits. Recently I have found the food to not be as good as in the past, the cheese scones we had crumbled and so you could not butter them, the portions of the cake are the tiniest I have ever seen not that I’d want them bigger as they are mostly like cardboard, the price of a portion of greasy chips is unbelievable. They tell you in an unfriendly way to clear your table before you leave, what’s that about ? Aren’t the staff there and paid to do that ? They charge top cafe prices after all so at the prices they charge I’m not going back, in future I’ll go somewhere that doesn’t expect me to clear tables after my meal ! I have spent a lot of money here over the years but given how unfriendly the staff are now I won’t be going back , they really don’t deserve my hard earned money , the food and service have really slipped, it is the the worst customer service and dining experience I’ve ever had with pricy food and in my experience not even that nice. There is friendlier places near by, I will stick to going to them places.

Visited on the 16 th two sausage sandwiches two teas two apple pies with cream TOTAL coat 20 pounds 96 pence Prince would be good of the quality of food was also good sadly it was not up to basic quality sauage poor quality And a little undercooked the apple pie could not of been a smaller portion And icy cold we were directed to return our own crockery to a designated place i did wonder of we were going to be asked to do our washing up aswell i notced the tip tray contai edi three 10 pounds notes realy .

Visited here many times and it's always been first class. Today we visited and it was a limited menu due to kitchen been closed. Myself and my husband had a beef sandwich which wasn't worth the price. Our nephew had a children's box priced 4.49 and consisted of a small ham sandwich with margarine, an aldi carton of apple juice, an aldi packet of cheese puffs, a tiny aldi yogurt which would be fed to a weaning baby and a small bruised apple. The girl on the till needs lessons in customer service she never cracked a smile taking my order and other customers were heard commenting on her lack of people skills. Will not be back.

Plenty of festive stalls to look at, lights and decorations to suit everyone. Parking was a bit muddy due to heavy rains. The restaurant was packed and you had to take a number if you wanted to eat. Santas train was there. Comes with prices too for artisan works

Absolutely loved our trip here with my nephew, his first time pumpkin picking. For the cost of the tickets the experience was amazing and my nephew had a blast on the rides and such a laugh being pulled around on the provided sledges picking out his pumpkins. Easy to get to location with plenty parking too. Will deffo be booking up for the Christmas event! Thanks for a wonderful day out :)

We visited for the pumpkin patch which was amazing, plenty selection and photo opportunities. We grabbed lunch at the cafe and the food was lovely, freshly prepared and staff were friendly and accommodating to my 11 month old. Good facilities and definitely would recommend!

Visited for lunch which will be our last. Staff not very nice or helpful We chose from the listings at the counter instead of being told menus where on the tables. I had a cappuccino and a ham and cheese toastie my wife had a cheese and onion panini We have definitely had better. But the staff could do with some customer service training - no smiles no how to you do How’s it going etc We will definitely drive on in future.

A very nice coffee shop, where you can also get a meal. The only negative is the queue was quite slow.

Just been to RedFox gardenworld & coffee shop and the service from all staff was amazing!!! Our Sandwich’s were fresh and tasty!!! The whole coffee shop was so clean and presentable!! Special mention to the young girl on the coffee machine I believe her name is Tamzin a fab cup of coffee then so accommodating with my newborn baby providing me with cool water for her bottle then assisted me in returning my tray as struggled with a baby👌🏻5* service⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

On Saturday myself and my mother had lunch here. The menu is very good, the quality of the food is good and the portion size is good. It is a very pleasant place to visit. Our food was actually very nice. We sat at the front and could clearly see over the food counter. Our lunch was totally spoil however, after witnessing a shocking and systematic lack of food hygiene. We witnessed one member of staff preparing food orders with bare hands, her hands went from picking up cakes, then pies, then salad, then crisps, then bread, all one after another, each time holding the food directly with her bare hands, in between rubbing her hands on her trousers, then through her hair, then adjusting her glasses. There was no observance at all of any standard of hygiene. Cross contamination between all different food items was repeatedly carried out, this was also the case with hot and cold food, hot food was prepared from a grill, the sandwiches were then pressed down with bare hands. We were stunned and shocked at witnessing this. We assumed this was only one person, then we witnessed another staff member doing the same thing! Clearly this is systematic and that is the standard there. If this had been witnessed by a food inspector there would have been serious repercussions. It is a simple and hygienic approach to have tongs and spatulas dedicated to different foods, and to have disposable gloves and paper to handle different foodstuffs, and at different areas. Please can you feed this back to the restaurant staff and request they follow simple steps to ensure good hygiene and avoid cross contamination between foods before serving food to customers. This is a lovely little place but the hygiene standards really do have to change. Yours sincerely.

I've always liked this cafe even though it was a little pricey. On my recent visit, I was surprised that all the food / drink prices behind the serving area (where you generally make your choices!) were removed ! I mentioned it but the member...

Had a super lunch here today, We both chose the 'daily special' Mince and Dumplings. So tasty and generous portions. Service was quick and friendly and the restaurant is spotless. Highly recommend! Thank you.

Ordered large fish and chips , described as double fried, plus pie special and lemon meringue desert. Fish was well cooked but hardly large, compared to fish and chip shops BUT! The chips were the worst I’ve ever had , I did point out 5he...

I have just visited Red Fox Cafe and ordered two fruit scones and hot beverages. The scones were the worst I have ever tasted. They were burnt, dry and indigestible. In fact they seemed more like a bagel than a scone. It wasn't worth complaining...

Staff have no customer service skills. Food was thrown on plate….nice place but won’t go back! There’s no care and attention given to anything 😐

Fantastic breakfast served by lovely well mannered happy staff. I’m a firm believer staff react to how you treat them so if there’s any negative reflection on them perhaps look at own behaviour

Open again at last. Nice spacious cafe within the garden centre and with a good choice of tasty food. It's just a shame that the staff are downright miserable. You would think that having had the best part of a year off, they would be...

I took my mum here for an afternoon tea and for £12.50 each it was very reasonable. We sat outside on the new terrace and at the moment with what is going on it was perfect. I would reccomend and I will return

After such a lovely visit last time I decided to return to red fox garden centre and restaurant as I was in the area. What a wonderful surprise when I saw the outdoor seating area as a continuation of the restaurant it was a beautiful...

Open at last. We only popped in for a coffee on this occasion and how nice was it to be able to do so. This is a lovely little cafe within the garden centre, set in pleasant surroundings and with comfortable seating. Maybe there is...

Lovely broccoli and Stilton quiche freshly made salad and home made coleslaw . Staff very pleasant overall a very nice visit.

Only 10 mins away from the airport. First food experience in India and I was amazed. The food is so good and the service is amazing, the servers made sure that all my needs were met and that I'm satisfied. Dinner served by Ajay, Manini and Nirmal and breakfast by Manish. They are amazing and their smiles and good energy made me feel welcomed and at well taken care of. Thank you for the amazing food and service. I would recommend this restaurant as a kick start for the indian food adventures :)

Took our 10 month old grandson to see Santa and what a great experience we had. Just like when I was a kid and he loved it. The train ride was good and the other sections just got better. Great lights and animation throughout. Santa...

Came for Sunday meal and the mince pie was very nice. Full of meat. However, what spoilt the meal was the undercooked chips with skins that were white, soggy and floppy. Not crisp and fluffy like chips should be !

We went as a group to visit Santa and I must say the charge maid was very reasonable compared to others we have visited.After Santa trip to coffee shop and of course others had same idea.The service was a bit slow but fine under the...

We visited today to see Santa as the website said Santa was there all day, when we arrived we were told he wasn’t there until 1pm. We asked if we could view the grotto as we have visited in previous years and know the layout is quite big. We were rudely told no. We then decided to have a drink and watch the kids on the soft play as we had traveled a way to get there. We were told by an unfriendly large blonde lady that was ok. We ordered 8 drinks and a sandwich the kids were playing nicely on the soft play, other disappointed families joined us as they too had cow. To see Santa like the website said. A very rude short man came and told the kids to get off the soft play as it wasn’t open he was putting it down. There were around 10 adults watching and he didn’t address any of us just the kids, I wonder if it was because they were more his height?! We all got off and as soon as we were off he put it down, people walked away and he put it back up! Strange man. I understand maybe Santa wasn’t there but the website stated he was, nobody was apologetic, we had 4 excited kids ready to see the big man and nobody gave a damn. Not one member of staff smiled during our time there, nobody was happy and they were all rude. I think Santa has put them on the naughty list! Don’t worry a 5 minute ride away and you get to Mr Twisters! Very friendly staff no Santa but full of festive cheer!

The food was very nice and the staff too. My only qualm was the place was very cold throughout and made for a miserable few hours for our disabled person mainly. There was a notice up which obviously we would have decided not to stop...

Went to visit Santa, fantastic experience. We went a couple of years ago and the queuing system was horrendous, this time round it was awesome. Great improvement, must mention Mrs Claus who gives the introduction, she is absolutely brilliant and was great fun. Would have given 5 stars but Santa was not quite forthcoming enough, he was OK but just OK.

Went to visit Santa which was amazing. The kids went on the ‘train’ then we walked through Narnia to meet Santa. The queuing system is much better this year and the addition of the soft play was excellent. The place and experience is really accessible with chairs around if you need to sit down. Parking is really good and everything is on the flat. The staff were excellent and really nice and helpful. The shop also has some great things in it for Xmas and in general. See you again next year.

First time visiting redfox garden world and can I just say it was brilliant lovely food lovely staff we seen santa and went on the train ride kids loved it was well worth the 12.99 adult & child price as the kids got a present from santa and went round narnia winter wonderland will be coming back to visit again very soon well done to all who put the hard work in to make Xmas wonderful for all the kids .

Went to the Red fox today as we have been many times before, however went in at 15.55 and told they were closing early as they had very little in the way of customers that day, great service as it appeared they were not interested in two people custom.

This hidden gem is a huge garden centre, with millions of plants grown on site...plus everything else you could need for your outdoor space! There's a lovely gift hop, play area for the kids, and amazing outdoor area too...with plants, pots, ornaments, fish and pond equipment...BUT my favourite part is the restaurant. Great selection of home cooked food, the stilton and broccoli quiche with home made PROPER chips with coleslaw is one of the best meals I've ever had...

We have visited the garden centre on many occasions and also the Christmas Narnia experience which have all been excellent so we decided to try the restaurant when we visited today. I must say we were all very impressed. My partner had steak pie with mash, peas and gravy and although I was slightly jealous when I seen it my sweet chilli wrap was amazing. One of the boys had chicken nuggets and the other opted for the picnic box. My latte was perfect and even came with a pretty heart on top. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I can not fault one single thing. Everything was fresh, very tasty and all reasonably priced. We will certainly be back and telling everyone we know to visit also.

having been to the red fox on numerous occasions to buy bedding plants for my mother ,and to have coffee and eat while

Great scones and coffee prices very reasonable 👍👍👍👍👍also the garden centre has a great variety of plants and shrubs for all types of gardens☺☺

On my way back home after a holiday, I decided after not having time for breakfast to stop at Red Fox for a coffee and scone. Travelling with my little dog I popped him in the trolley in his basket. On reaching the cafe I checked on the entrance for a "No Dogs Allowed" sticker, none visible and knowing dogs were allowed in the rest of the garden centre I walk in and took a seat at the very bottom of the cafe. Staff were obviously aware the dog was there and said nothing. Ordered a coffee and scone and sat down. When I had just about finished Shaun (the owner/manager) came over and said I wasn't allowed to have the dog inside and I would have to go sit outside (in the cold) with him. I was so embarrassed as people were looking at me. I finished and left and asked to speak to him. I explained that I wasn't aware dogs weren't allowed as there was nothing on the cafe entrance stating that. He said he was told he did not have to have a notice and that visitors knew dogs weren't allowed. Clearly not as I was unaware. He said health and hygiene only guide dogs were allowed. So I learnt today that guide dogs don't have the same germs as other dogs. He said dogs aren't allowed in any establishment serving food, again lack of awareness. I said a simple sticker would have saved us having to have the conversation. To that he answered he was gonna ban dogs from the whole garden centre. I told him I was going to put a review on TripAdvisor, he said ok, I said I wouldn't be shopping there again, he said ok. Not quite sure where this guy gets his customer service skills but I certainly think after hearing several people speak about his attitude and reading reviews about him, he definitely needs to learn some new ones. He must think he has something special that people can't get elsewhere to be addressing people the way he does. That will definitely be the last opportunity to speak to me like that.

Reviewed this place previously - it's seriously good. Called in last Friday with wife, glass entrance door a little tricky for wife pushing my wheelchair, not automatic. Once inside we found table and ordered cod, chips and mushy peas which tasted great. The fish was cooked to perfection, as were the chips - easy to say but, in my experience, highly difficult to achieve. Service was excellent, and included two large pots of tea.

monalisha and manini was very helpfull to me when am having food at clever fox cafe am very much impressed by monalisha his smile was so nice and she treat me as a friend Manini also good job .keep it up thank u so much for giving me good service all the staf was very nice I will definitely come again to red fox hotel again.

Called in here a few times in afternoon for a tea and a sandwich and a good natter, good selection of own cooked products

Was here tonight with my two grandsons to see Santa and it was fantastic we had a chat with mrs Claus who steels the show she is lovely and very funny had the children singing and laughing we had a train ride and then wait (quite a long wait ) to see Santa would definitely recommend here for little ones it’s magical

We visited with my grandson and took in the Christmas visit to Narnia. Well worth the money, the organisation was excellent. The scenery and Christmas visit set up was excellent. Visited the cafe afterwards, very clean cafe with nice staff, reasonably priced tasty food. Would definitely visit again, well done.

We went for the Santa visit and kids loved it. Only thing is, my 6 year old granddaughter wasn’t impressed with the pretend train ride. Watching a screen of a train going thru the snow and tracks. But over all lovely for the kids. Will probably go again next year. Quite expensive really.

Popped in to look at the Christmas trees, and had a bite to eat while we were here. The food was really nice, the coffee and the cheese cake were all spot on.

Popped in for a quick bite after visiting the garden centre. Service was amazing, very fast, and very friendly. Lovely waitress who served us, and food was outstanding. Definitely recommend to anyone who fancies fast and tasty food. Will be returning soon :)

Went here for a bite to eat after visiting the garden centre and was very impressed with the quality of our food. The staff from the girl taking to order to the one that brought out our food and drinks were fantastic..very happy and helpful. I would definitely recommend here for a nice place to eat.

We popped in after our shop just for coffees but as soon as we saw the food being served to other tables we just had to order!!

Just had an amazing meal here . All pies are home cooked . They were amazing . Will definitely be returning the staff were 1st class nothing was a bother to them well done keep up the good work. Will definitely be back

Popped in with my wife for a lunch after shopping there for plants. I had heard some good reviews on sunday lunches so expected this to be good. My wife had chicken stuffing ssndwich which she enjoyed.

A variety of foods, with friendly service, and very reasonable prices, what more can you ask for an afternoon lunch. I had the stilton and broccoli quiche, my wife had mince and dumplings, very tasty, plenty of flavour, and very filling. A selection of desserts on offer with the usual coffee offerings, spiced pumpkin latte, hot chocolate with marshmallows. The experience will be something I will most definitely repeat. You have to give this place a visit.

Have eaten here in the past and it was ok so thought we would call in again. We won't be in a hurry to return. We both had Pie peas and chips.My chicken pie was completely tasteless and the chips were very poor . My wife's choice of corned beef and potato pie was I think wrongly described,it should have said potato with a smattering of corned beef. here and there The pastry on both left a great deal to be desired.

Clean and comfortable coffee shop, friendly and helpful staff, delicious wide range of home made food! Well worth a visit for lunch one day.

Absolutely love this place for their homemade cooked meals!hats off to thw chef. My daughter loves the mince and dumplings from here. Dumplingsalways cooked to perfection. And the pie fillings are to die for! The manager however is very rude to his staff infront of customers which did upset my little girl but cant discriminate against the food. Regular customer!5*

We have been going to this restaurant almost weekly since it opened. We have seen the decline over this time. The tables don’t get cleared often enough and customers have to pile the last persons dishes onto another table before they sit down. The food now is simply awful. We went for Sunday lunch this week. I had a child’s portion because I don’t rate the food. All I could eat on my plate was the mashed potato and the mashed turnip. The gravy was full of lumps, the roast potatoe were soft on the outside and not cooked in the middle. The cabbage was stringy and the carrots tasteless. I don’t eat Yorkshire pudding anyway so the only other thing was a tiny piece of turkey. I sometimes have the soup and despite asking for my bread bun not to be heated up in the microwave it always is. Thus rendering it inedible. The crust is so hard it’s I posible to bite into and inside is like rubber. The young girls they employ have no training, this is obvious. They need more adult staff and a new chef. After visiting regularly since they opened, we will not be going back. There are other garden centres I. The area that are properly run and they will get our business from now on.

We had been to another nursery and were heading home when we decided to stop.We never got to see plants instead straight to coffee shop.We only had to coffees and scones but the staff are friendly and surrounding are nice.The coffee was small but there again you are not paying Costa prices def on a list of places for coffee and snack

Depending on where you are coming from you can only access Red Fox from the East bound carriageway of 184.from the westbound you have to turn around at Testo's roundabout.

I’d read reviews and decided to try the cafe and I was pleasantly surprised. My friend and I had a wonderful lunch. The menu is extensive and the quality was great. I will go back again and perhaps buy some plants next time!

If you’re ever road tripping on I 80 driving from Lake Tahoe to SLC don’t pass by Elko without grabbing lunch or dinner at The Coffee and Mug. This place is a nice size with a lot of comfortable booths and 4 top tables. I had the tuna melt with coleslaw and my husband had their Philly Cheese Steak with fries. We were both very happy with our meals. I tried some of his fries and they were good but I would have preferred thinner and crispier and that’s the reason for the four instead of 5. This place was super clean and the wait staff was so friendly - makes you want to move to a much smaller town where everybody knows your name:) Oh and btw we couldn’t pass up a slice or two of their homemade pies: so many choices it was hard to decide but I ended up choosing the butterscotch (heavenly) and hubby went with blueberry pie. Both were yummy!

This is a good place for a get together. Plenty outside space and a great menu. You can choose to eat inside or outside on the huge patio

Read about the Redfox online and the reviews were oretty good. We were not disappointed, the ploughmans lunch was the best Ive had in a long time, the toastie was tasty. Would recommwnd a visit

After some time selecting plants we were attracted to the menu board showing a good range of lunchtime choices. The place was not busy and there was amole seating inside the very clean and pleasantly warm premises. The Mrs chose Mince and Dumplings while I pondered between the Battered Fish or Whitby Scampi..each with chips. The Scampi won. Both meals were served promptly and we found them to be very tasty, filling and enjoyable. A pot of tea and a large filter coffee completed the session. Total bill £19.98 plus tip and as such considered good value for money. Toilets clean. Staff helpful.

Called in at Redfox Garden Centre to buy some plants, and decided to have a mid afternoon lunch in the restaurant. It was a lovely day, so we decided to eat outside. We ordered a diet coke, and a juice burst, and both decided to have scampi. We had to wait an awful long while for our scampi, as it was taken to another table, and grabbed by them. However, when it eventually arrived it tasted very nice, The cost of the meal and drinks was £19.77 which we thought was reasonable.

I have visited redfox a few times in the past few weeks and bought plants at a brilliant price and had lunch at also a good price. The cafe is a lovely place the staff in there are very present. You can eat in and outside on the patio.

I recently had sunday lunch here for the first time with my family. It was extremely busy as it is such a popular place. You can eat inside or outside. The meat was a bit tough, however the rest of my lunch was really nice. I ordered pork and the rest of my family ordered turkey. Sadly the waitress did not know which was which!..There were no glasses left so my Mother had a coke in a paper cup. As it was so lightweight, she sadly ended up spilling it all over herself. She had barely taken a sip. We were not offered a refill, despite it all ending up on the floor!..I enjoyed the Peach Yoghurt Frappe. The selection of cakes is very nice. The plants and selection of goods is really good in this garden centre, and we purchased a lovely solar powered water fountain, which we have never seen elsewhere. The prices are certainly more reasonable here than in other garden centres.

weve Visited red fox on a few time but after today I think it’s going to be a while before we return. We first of all had to clear our table, then waited ages for a cup of coffee we had already eaten our food my husband then asked to see the “manager” he came over to us my husband was just about to say it’s not the girls fault for the delay but he didn’t give him a chance he threw £20 at my husband and walked away. Didn’t ask what the problem was (it was not the food) if we wanted our money back (we did not) he needs to go back and learn some people skills my husband handed the £20 the the girls for a tip I hope they got it

A brunch date with friends. Thought we would try this place as a change to the usual. Very pleased we did, food and service all good.

Omg what can I say we visited today and didn't know what food to choose as there was so much and it all looked fabulous. My hubby opted for pie which was home cooked and the deepest pie I've ever seen. I opted for quiche and all I can say is omg. My nephew chose a child's meal and everything came with hand cut chips. We loved this place so much we left with scones quiche and cheesecake to take home. Highly recomended absolutely amazing.

Took my mam and sister for Sunday lunch today.....our 1st visit to the coffee shop. We all had roast beef and all the trimmings.....it was absolutely delicious! Huge portions too.....and for £7.99 a head...bargain! There was a lovely selection of cakes and pastries, we chose to take ours home. Top marks to the friendly staff, they make SUCH a difference......we'll definitely be back!

Booked a table for afternoon tea for 8 of us as one of us is having a baby in just over a week and she loves cake .. made to feel very welcome. Food was simply bloody lovely

Bit disappointed when we got there they had stopped serving food a full hour before they close. Cake was ok, they do offer a gluten free option which is good. Not the cheapest place in the world.

Visited with 5 adults, 3 toddlers & 2 babes in arms. Really good food, pleasant surroundings and fantastic value at the Narnia tour with train simulator. We had been to Christmas train at Stanhope the day before and this is far better value for money....

Visited here today with my grandson to see Santa we had to wait a while so went in cafe for some lunch I had pea and ham soup and crusty bun delicious and frandsonhad a picnic box and ice cream will definitely go back

Three generations of the family visited Redfox for the Christmas Fayre, a visit to Santa and the new train ride and an impromptu lunch. Since last going in the restaurant it has increased massively in size which was definitely needed as the old version was small. Regardless of the size it was still full to the brim and we had to wait a few minutes to get a table. Whereas other visits have been quiet as we visited at non peak times this visit reminded us of a noisy canteen. The food, 2 x fish and chips meals, a jacket potato and beans meal, a child’s picnic box and a steak pie, mash, pie and gravy were all really nice apart from my husbands ‘lumpy’ mash and ‘lack of gravy’. It isn’t the cheapest place for a meal but apart from the expected busy time of day and the lumpy potatos it would have been a five star visit. The restaurant is clean, the staff work non stop and it deserves to be a success, and we will keep going back.

We have been here quite a few times now.The first time to buy plants then we found this coffee shop.Since our first visit the coffee shop has doubled in size.The food menu has a good selection.Staff very efficient and polite very helpful.Its on our return visit list

Ate here a few times food lovely place nice and clean but slightly expensive and there's always the garden centre for a nice walk around

Delighted to find such a good dining experience in a garden centre. Good range of food available and at good value prices. Good customer service provided.

We visited this at Xmas with our 5 and 1 year old. They loved meeting santa and seeing the narnia areas. Especially walking through the wardrobe.

Lovely food at all times but really gorgeous sunday lunch served very quickly and piping hot , staff excellent , very friendly

This is my new oasis of calm. A lovely cafe with a really relaxing outside seating area. Tremendous coffee and I think I’ll be there every week...

Our visit again to this coffee shop did not disappoint,we all had are chosen drinks a pot of tea a large latte a large Americano .plus a bacon sandwich , a small fish and chips and a fruit scone,all were delicious.The coffee shop has just had an extension build making it much more roomy and spacious,which I'm sure will be of benefit especially on the run up to Christmas with all the extra visitors coming to see Narnia and Santa.

Once again we had our lunch here and we could not fault it ,the only thing I would have to complain about is the coffee.the cups are the smallest we have ever had and the prices are higher,so now we have tea instead of coffee maybe they should look at other places to compare price and size

We always judge a coffee shop on here quality of the fruit scones and this place does not let you down, massive, right amount of sugar and plenty of fruit. The cheese ones are very good as well. The coffee is the best around and the same price as other places just unlike a previous comment ask for the right size : ) the other types of cakes are also of excellent quality and the bacon sandwiches are very good, make sure you get a loyalty card, well worth it as you will be back again. Oh and must mention the friendly staff, very helpful.

Great food and good service. The mince and dumplings were delicious and the cakes are to die for. Friendly atmosphere and a little play area for kiddies with crayons and colouring in pads.

Relax, enjoy the atmosphere and the coffee not forgetting the meals / snacks.Great place staff are always happy.

Lovely Sunday Roast I had pork and my son had turkey. A good portion of vegetables. Thoroughly enjoyed. Very clean restaurant and efficient service. Will definitely be back

My second visit to this popular eatery.... the home made lasagne was to die for with salad coleslaw and garlic bread very reasonably priced at £6.95 good value. Parner had the home made pie chunky chips.... the only comment and an observation that the chips were limp... maybee a variety of potato?? On the whole exellent. I cant understand other reviews saying its over priced!!!! they should try some department stores to see how expensive they are.

We'd been looking for ornamental garden pebbles and a blue flowering bush but couldn't resist coffee, orange juice and cheese scone. We'd left this visit until the day after a bank holiday and it was reasonably quiet. For some reason the nursery and the restaurant make us both feel relaxed hence the reason for going back. Standards were as good as always and left us feeling hungry looking at the gorgeous cliche and pies on display.

We ventured out today for our seasonly visit to the amazing Red Fox to purchase excellent standard plants and superb garden furniture. During this visit, we decided to have lunch for the first time in the coffee shop within the facility. The decoration was superb and the staff were lovely but we were shocked at the price of the cuisine and drinks. I consumed the mince and dumplings (which was excellent) and my husband had the breakfast wrap (which was okay) but my mother and aunt decided on the ham and vegetable soup which, for the price: was in a very small bowel; tasted very salty and it was strained so there was hardly any ham or vegetables present. In addition, we all ordered a 'regular' coffee (again very expensive) and, upon the waitress serving these drinks, we all looked at each other thinking they had made a mistake as the lattes were the size of an espresso cup. So, overall, today was a lovely experience at Red Fox consisting of a lovely café facility with delightful staff but, certain meal and drinks portion size, accompanied by the excessive cost, was a disappointment.

Called in to have a wander round the garden centre after hearing good reviews from friends. Decided to call in for a coffee. Very pleasant surprise, had a lovely latte each and opted for the sharing platter which included pâté, pork and egg pie, chutney etc for £12.99 which we think is reasonable. Nice comfortable seating with pleasant and friendly staff. Would definitely recommend and we plan to return soon.

Never been here before but heard good reviews... so we went for Sunday lunch a party of six. Two of us had the Sunday lunch which looked fabulous. I had a home made flan salad and coleslaw delicious. They even do home cooked Chips... very reasonably priced....

Can I start by saying the food is fab here. It's a great place for lunch or coffee and cake. It's spotlessly clean and the staff are friendly. The only drawback for me is the price. Although of a high standard, I still think the food is very expensive for what and where it is. It wouldn't stop me from going back but it's a treat rather than a regular visit.

This is the third time we have been here, the first was brilliant the second not so good .we decided to give it another try and we were pleased we did.my husband and I had a corned beef toastie which was served with salad, home made coleslaw and crisps ,the filling oozed out of the sandwich it was that full it was gorgeous.our friend had a wrap with the salad etc and she said it was the first one she had where the filling didn't come out of the bottom ,we were all full after our meal we would definitely recommend it

This is only the second time I have been here ,the first time I really enjoyed my scampi,chips and salad today I had the same meal and the chips were soft and mushy, four of us went and I was the only one to clear my plate ( I was hungry) the others left some of the chips but it won't stop me going back hopefully it will be better next time

We went for lunch and when pulling up I didn't know what to expect. The garden centre is sparse to put it bluntly, but this is tucked away at the back and it's lovely. Nice decor, little area for kids, lots of choice on the menu and a lovely counter to tempt you to dessert. Service was OK, lots of young staff, bit abrupt but nothing negative as such. Food tasted great, will return.

Good atmosphere , accommodating and friendly staff, spotlessly clean restaurant , good menu, wholesome and reasonably priced food.The only blip was the ice cream with desert was melted before it reached the table.Will definitely be a return customer.
