Roots+ Seeds Kitchen Garden in Cotswold - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Omw, service exceptional. The food we had, the fish from Brixham and the mackerel and poached egg on sourdough toast, brilliant! Very tasty!

The coffee was nice! However the staff and service was horrible! Rude and made us feel unwelcome! Will not be returning

Staying locally at the Camping, Caravan and Motorhome Park … R&S coffee is great, lunch was terrific, and breakfast was lovely! The staff are fantastic, really polite, professional and personable. The interior and exterior convey a sense of cleanliness and freshness. Dogs are made to feel just as welcomed as their owners! Highly recommended, not just for the cafe but also the Deli, Pizza parlour, and local brewery outlet as well as the Bathurst estate.

I had coffee here on my way to visit friends. It's a great location with wonderful staff. The guy running the front of house is fantastic with his team. Wonderful service, they so friendly to everyone who came into the cafe.

We were so pleasantly surprised by the unique and delicious pizza toppings and dips! Lovely atmosphere and staff, couldn’t recommend this place enough (for whatever occasion you’re having!)

Really overpriced (e.g. £15 for three sausage rolls), staff seem stressed and harassed, especially the chap running the place who left us feeling like an inconvenience. That said, the ceasar salad is good... I am used to Cirencester prices, but R&S is far too expensive, especially with the touchy atmosphere. Sorry guys!

Really lovely spot for lunch, with a kiddies creche area inside the venue, and a large secure playground outside the venue (accessible from the restaurant) Food was really lovely, the cafe has a great vibe and the staff are super friendly. Came here with my partner and stepdaughter who is autistic, my friends and their dog. Nothing was too much effort for the team, they accommodated our request to move tables, and were friendly towards the non-adults too! Will definitely be coming back!

Despite the name, it's not a good place for vegetarians. The pasta and artichoke dish was pretty flavourless. I asked for olive oil. They didn’t have any. They offered rapeseed oil instead. You would think it would be hard to go wrong with Eton Mess. But it was all cream and meringue and barely any fruit. Nice airy atmosphere but hard seats. Not recommended.

I took my Mother in Law there for a drink and a sandwich. As she is elderly and likes plain food I ordered a ham and tomato sandwich which is exact what we got. Although the sandwich was very nice I do think a tea, a coffee and a plain sandwich was expensive at £17! Definitely won’t be rushing to go back!

Another delicious meal at Roots and Seeds! Brunch this time- delicious and filling. Lovely vibe in R&S, always a jolly nice welcome too from all who work here. My daughter loves it so much she gives it 15 stars out of 5! Thank you and see you all soon.

I had a sandwich and a coffee it came to £16. The sourdough was burnt and the filling was bland as it had no seasoning. The sourdough was served as one big slice, instead of being cut in half which made it difficult to eat. My aunt had the Welsh rarebit which was one slice of sourdough topped with cheese and mustard for £13. They also charge 60p extra for diary free milk. I noticed that the table hadn’t been cleaned and I just felt it wasn’t worth the money.

Great food, great service, lovely little place. Some of the best eggs benedict I've had.. the produce seems really high quality. You can pay more at other places I've been to and get a fast worse product.

Decided to go for breakfast on Sunday morning. Paid £2.40 to use the carpark, walked into the restaurant at 11:15 to be told we've finished hot food service - their menu states breakfast served until 12 midday. Very disappointed.

nice place to eat, unfortunately when we got there , the menu was a bit shorter than normal, no fish or chips, settled for the roast chicken and baby potatoes with coleslaw

Showed up randomly so finding a table took a while, but worth the wait. Food was excellent along with service. The full English is delicious. Unfortunately, was too full to try one of the cakes afterwards, but will have to go again.

First time here and instantly fell in love with the décor. Food was absolutely incredible, staff are super friendly and the atmosphere is perfect. Had a little look around in the shop and it all looks yummy. Will grab some olives next time

Great find on the edge of Cirencester Park. Small but tasty menu and great portions. Not cheap but well worth it.

Great food staff very friendly a great restaurant

Fabulous restaurant with good service and amazing food. Space to play for children of all ages and very dog friendly too. I love their superoodl salad , its all you need in a bowl of greatness. Can't wait to try their own wine at the weekend Maybe a delicious coffee first tho Check it out !! Always something good going on there 😃

The only way I can describe this place is as an unsupervised nursery. It is full of self entitled, lazy mums who let their kids scream non stop without interfering. I even saw two mums change their kids dirty nappies on the table ….. how vile!!!! Restaurants are for adults not your kids - leave them at home!! Also a warning - they have a children’s crèche in the restaurant so if you love hearing screaming for hours and kids running around you whilst there parents sit and do nothing then this is the place for you! I would rather stick needles in my eyes before I ever return to that horrid place.

Went for the summer BBQ evening and to listen to our friend play live music. Had a good atmosphere and food was pretty quick. They had run out of king prawns which was sad but the service and smiley faces made up for it! I’ve been here one other time for lunch but will definitely be back here to try the proper dinner menu. There is parking but you have to pay for it but it only takes about 15 mins to walk from centre of town. There is also a dog wash and an antiques store.

Great new place to go to. Lovely location lovely people and great food. Nice play area for younger children.

Good if you have little children. Nice menu.

If you haven’t been yet on a Saturday evening to try the small plates menu, I would highly recommend you do. Our food was absolutely delicious!! …..and the small plates are not so small!!!! Fresh and flavoursome food, prepared with care.

Service and people are lovely, good spot, but crikey is it WAY too expensive. £13.5 for a sandwich with the most pathetic amount of filling, kids running everywhere screaming also ruins it for a lot of people. Staff are nice but won't eat there again.

The parking is confusing before you even start with various zones and restrictions so be careful. The food is very good but at £4.50 ish for a can of cola which I didn't realise at the time seemed expensive. The food is good just a tad overpriced , I think 2 people for sandwiches and a shared lemon tart with 2 non alcoholic drinks coming in around £42 seems quite high for a quick snack.

Good location and surroundings, staff are attentive. Good for kids, having an indoor and outdoor play area. The food was a little disappointing for the price. Pork sandwich was quite dry (£13) soup was good but came with a very small and burnt piece of sourdough. Kids meals were good value. We will try it again as it seems like a nice place.

I had the best almond croissant ever this morning!! And the coffee was delicious as well. Can thoroughly recommend Roots and Seeds. Graham

Great brunch here. Food is well cooked and presented. Certainly eat here again... My friend had to wait under the table.

Great place to meet with friends, family, or even for a business meet-up. Always great food and service. Dog and child friendly 100%. Go for a wander round the park (it's worth the charge when that comes into effect) Note: Make sure you pay for parking up the top by the gardens before you leave

Great spot with good, well priced food. Staff was exceptionally friendly. Fun location and very well run. Could benefit from a broader menu, but what they do they do well. I had the "small" breakfast plate; just the right size for me.

The food was ok if not a little expensive, but i was very angry to receive a parking fine after being instructed by a Roots and Seeds employee that I could pay for parking later but was not able to.

I got parking £50 parking fine because I was 2 minutes late! I got to the car park at noon, it took me just under 10 mins to sort my dog out and pay for my parking ticket. By the time, I pay, my ticket is showing a time of 12.10. Two weeks after my visit, I got a letter from Minster Baywatch for a parking fine of £50. The letter came with a photo evidence showing I entered the car park at 12:00:50 and leaving at 12:12:35 Is this a joke?!?! I’m sorry to award one star despite the coffee being acceptable but I will never visit the establishment nor recommend it to anyone as I don’t want anyone to suffer the same injustice that I suffer. Just simply isn’t worth it. Ridiculous parking management!

I was so impressed with our visit to roots and seeds. Personally, I find it so hard to find somewhere to eat out with 3 small children ( 5 & 3 year old twins ) but this was the perfect place. The food was fantastic and I could actually sit and have a chat while they played in very convenient play area. The menu was brilliant and the service was spot on. I wish I'd have got some pictures of the food but did get some great ones of the kids enjoying the outdoor play area. We can't wait to visit again and enjoy some of the lovely walks!!

I've visited Roots & Seeds on three occasions now, and my most recent visit for Mother's Day was the best yet. The Sunday roasts are absolutely fantastic. It's great for those of us with young children - the atmosphere and set-up is very family friendly but refreshingly also delivers high quality food. Often, it is difficult to find places which deliver on both of these fronts. Yes there are cheaper establishments, but I feel the pricing is reasonable given the level of quality of the food.

We visited this restaurant last October and were reasonably impressed with the food although it was quite expensive for what it was but was infact receiving a 10% discount for visiting from the Caravan and Motorhome site. Our disappointment came when we checked the bill to find that they had infact put small increases on a few items to infact cover that discount. We queried thisvand they did rectify it. We returned last night as we were once again visiting from the caravan site where we were staying with friends. We weren't overly impressed with the small plates idea compared to their normal menu but ordered drinks and enjoyed the night together. However, to our absolute disgust small increases had been added to our drinks to the tune of £7. We queried this and was told he had made my cocktails as doubles(something he didn't ask me about beforehand) and I'm not sure how this affected the bottle of wine that he put an extra £2 on (a bottle that he recommended over the bottle my husband had chosen and offered it at the same price). He once again rectified the incorrect bill but left on the £22 gratuity fee even though the service hadn't been that great. It's such a shame because it's such a great facility so close to the caravan site but just be careful to check your receipts folks you're not getting the discount you think you are!

One of the best full English! Great quality food. Well presented and hot food! (Hate getting luke warm food). It's not very often that everything is perfect.

Very child-friendly and dogs allowed too.

Stopped for lunch with the dog. Excellent food with really friendly and quick service. Smart and clean venue too. Best lemon meringue every had! Will be back

Our first trip to this place. Wow, definitely won't be our last. Cannot fault anything! Really lovely vibe to this place, wonderful location and super family friendly (including the four legged ones) food was fabulous, staff and management just lovely. We even returned after an unsuccessful trip in the town to buy haggis for my son (close to Burns night and everywhere had sold out). Asked if we could be cheeky and buy a portion from them as we'd seen it on the menu, they obliged and I had a happy 19 yr old! Thank you and we will be back!

Superb food and fantastic staff. Definitely worth booking as it gets very busy otherwise there may be a wait for a table.

Very expensive for a simple coffee & small fruit juice with wait times at least 20 minutes. They make you stand around like a spare part without offering you seating or actually bringing the drinks to you!! Then no tables available which hadn't been cleared! So had to clear the tables as well! Toilets no handwash or toilet roll! Bad, stressful experience. Instead of being ultra-polite in that pathetic English way, why dont the many staff actually serve & look after already paid-up customers? Never again!

First visit today we will definitely be returning. Food was great and served by friendly staff despite being overwhelmed by visitors. Only complaint needs many more highchairs but that's all!

It was OK, however the service was slow and took 10 minutes to receive my coffee that was expensive

Good quality food and excellent service but the kids gnocchi was tiny (see photo).

We had breakfast here this morning amazing. The staff made us all feel very welcomed and the food was amazing. Happy New Year.

Great place for kids as it has its own little play area. Prefer it now you order at the bar as table service used to be pretty slow & painful. Bacon sandwich for £7 should have more than 2 slices of bacon. Great coffee. They should remind you to get reimbursed for parking, that whole process is a little frustrating. But overall a pleasant breakfast!

We thorough enjoyed our lunch here. The staff were excellent - attentive and friendly. Great food, and we will definitely return. Thank you!

Fantastic food. The Christmas roast I had recently was really really good. With a couple of great cheffy twists. Sam is really personable and very helpful.

All well and good being a dog friendly restaurant but to see dogs sitting on owners laps and licking food off the table was a definite turn off.

Brilliant cafe, with very friendly and accommodating staff. Dog friendly after a walk around Cirencester Park is very welcomed. We had a sandwich and the dog had a sausage. We will be back another day.

Nice new building. Great food and very nice staff. Lovely place to walk.

For this wonderful setting, you pay to park in the pay & display car park for Cirencester Park (free from 6pm-8am). The cost is refunded if you spend over £30. Wonderful warm greeting on arrival. Very glad we'd booked on a busy Saturday lunchtime. Excellent service and the food was fabulous. I had eggs benedict on a gluten free roll, and it was delicious. I'm definitely tempted to book an evening meal, I can imagine it feels very special, but don’t wear heels, as it's a gravel path from the car park. We will definitely be back!

Great venue. Food was really good and service was excellent. Went for a large function and they handled it superbly.

I went there with my husband and my furry baby girl. We went there just for a coffee but we decided to order a burger and chips and English breakfast. It was amazing! Nice atmosphere, nice service and lovely location! When we were walking back I saw the veggy garden and "courgette flower" ... 😍 I am Italian and we used to cook that as succulent dish. I couldn't resist to ask them to have a few. They came with me and gave some to me. I very appreciated that. I was so happy... I felt in love with that place. Passion and quality of food are guaranteed. I forgot an umbrella... Good reason to come back! See you soon guys! Sabrina and Gigi

Absolutely terrible if you have a baby or toddler x4 high chairs for the whole place considering it’s aimed at parents and children it certainly does not cater for them! You’d think that health and safety would mean you have to provide these essentials. Staff completely unhelpful and unsympathetic to anyone with toddlers expecting parents to juggle a toddler and baby on your knee whilst eating and feeding them. Myself and my mothers group of 15 will not be returning.

Super dog-friendly and lovely cakes and coffee, will certainly be back and treat ourselves to breakfast next time. Thank you for the dog biscuits 🐾🐾

I've been to this restaurant twice now, having gone for a brilliant walk in the park. It's always a little difficult for us as we have gluten free requirements. There are sufficient meals on the menu that they were prepared to adapt and there was at least one beautiful tasting cake on each occasion. The surroundings are lovely and the staff welcoming. Thank you for a really lovely brunch. See you soon.

Difficult to find the car park, signs would help. Excellent service and food, we were guests

Amazing Sunday roast here today. Food was fresh and delicious.

Asked Toby & team to cater 18 colleagues for a training day. Toby was great - responsive and friendly. I collected the order at the time agreed and all the food was fresh, hot and most importantly - delicious! Great service from start to finish. Highly recommend R+S.

Very nice breakfast, in pleasant surroundings. Dog friendly

Tasty food with a friendly atmosphere with good service. Will definitely go again.

Great brunch after a walk in the park

After a beautiful walk in Cirencester Park, we visited Roots and Seeds for a lovely breakfast/brunch. Food amazing with friendly, helpful service.

Went for coffee and cake. Price of cake very expensive, I had a sliver of a cake for £4.50, millionaire shortbread was £4. Coffee was good and hot although £3.75. Main food and breakfast menu seemed reasonably priced

Absolutely delicious food with fantastic service. Thoroughly recommend

Different, lively with friendly staff, not jam packed with tables, from some tables you can watch the chefs working in the kitchen. The main attraction is the food sourced from local suppliers, we had the Sunday roast board for two, beef chicken and pork with oven cooked vegetables, not microwaved. As suppliers are local you experience local brands rather than national names. A must for anyone with a dog who wants well cooked food at reasonable prices in a pleasant environment.

We’ve had brunch and coffees there before and have enjoyed the experience. We visited last night and tried their dinner menu - we were not disappointed. We had the scotch egg and rosemary focaccia to start. The thyme flowers, and nasturtium leaves with the scotch egg were a new (tasty) experience. There was plenty of focaccia and would’ve been possible to share as a starter if I didn’t love bread! For mains we had the steak fritz and bangers and mash (the red onion gravy was so full of flavour). The steak was medium rare, and very tender. We shared an Eton mess for pudding which was also delicious. I had an autumn gin spritz, which was delicately flavoured. I don’t know the name of our servers last night but they were both attentive without being intrusive. Very happy to have this on our doorstep, and love that they grow their own food and try and source ingredients as locally as possible. Looking forward to coming back and trying their Sunday lunch!

Absolutely FANTASTIC! We hosted our daughter’s birthday party here this morning and everyone commented on what a brilliant place it is. Delicious hot food, coffee and pastries, and excellent service from everyone. The play areas are such a genius addition - we would absolutely recommend. Thank you Roots and Seeds!!

Food tasted good, but was hugely overpriced. Paid £8.50 for a TINY scotch egg from the ‘small bites’ menu, and glass of cola cost over £4. Absolutely ridiculous. On top of that, there was no system for seating ‘walk-in’s’, so people were seated out of order, and to cap it all, one of the chefs in the kitchen was seen double-dipping his tasting spoon - urgh!!

Excellent evening with fabulous food

Beautiful cafe with excellent facilities, the kids outdoor play area is wonderful and right next to a meadow so plenty of space to explore and play. There is a lovely indoor area for little ones too which is so helpful as a parent of two little ones. Great breakfast! The cakes are a bit pricey and most have nuts in which is tricky with nut allergies being very common. Coffee is usually great but has been a little soapy/bubbly a few times perhaps due to the volume of orders going through the machine?

Superbly prepared food - a very Professional experience......... Very helpful Staff.. .

We met there for lunch, but it is so noisy due to all hard surfaces and no so fabrics. The menu was very expensive and the waiting staff seemed to wonder about look for some one to claim the food they had in their hand. We had coffee, which hardly tasted of coffee. The down side to a dog friendly premises, is I saw a dog urinate on some poor customers ruck sack and all over the floor. We left without ordering any food and on the way out, in the outside eating area, there was dog faeces on the floor. Trying to pay for the car park was another great draw back, 4 out of 5 around the machine had great difficulty getting it to work.

Loved the food, so fresh and a lovely setup. Would be four stars, but the way our family were spoken to by one of the old groundsmen when we went for a walk after, completely destroyed all the good feelings - such a shame. We were made to turn around on the spot, and leave the park (we were addressed like we were trespassing). We then got back to the gate we originally walked through, and he was now telling us it was locked. He just barked at us to walk round the building, when we asked where we should go, as we had no idea. I was so upset, that I politely asked to speak to the manager who was very professional, unfortunately the same guy was stood behind him and started at me aggressively again. The lack of professionalism was shocking, the guy should look for a job without being near the public. So yes, loved the place ...but put off for life. 😕

Great relaxing time with some really friendly staff and the quality of the food was the best we’d come across in Cirencester

Absolutely outstanding experience - we loved eating from the kitchen garden, how the food showcased the ingredients thoughtfully, the fantastic, engaged and knowledgeable service. And how relaxing to eat somewhere that did gluten free food so well!

Beyond disappointing! After a lovely walk in the park, we thought we'd stop here for a nice coffee and a scone. "We don't sell scones" was the terse response, delivered at an accute "down the nose" angle. The snooty attitude was reflected in the snooty menu (Superfood salad (really?) and £10 for a posh cheese sandwich) and by the yummy mummies showing off their babies to the other yummy mummies. We visited the toilet as we were leaving. Obvious efforts to impress customers were totally destroyed by 'deposits' left behind in the toilet bowls in both the ladies and the gents! DISGUSTING!!! The whole experience ruined my day. We definitely won't be returning! The coffee was ok.

I went into this place having high expectations for this restaurant. Since my family and I are not local to the area, we wanted to find a good place to eat. Sadly,the summer roast we were looking for was not good at all. For starters, we had to wait for at least 40mins just for our food to get ready. I had slow cooked beef which was chewy and dry. The chicken was ok but the lamb had the same result as the beef although it served pink The manager who served us was very rude and was being sarcastic! Never visit this place again. Sorry!

We had a really great meal here the staff were excellent and for a change you were not rushed. The food was excellent and locally sourced with some produce from there own kitchen garden. Really good drinks menu and a superb coffee to finish a really good evening meal Really highly recomended.

We had a delicious lunch at Roots & Seeds of the Fish and chips and Beef brisket sandwich. Lovely relaxed vibe and options to sit in or out, with areas to entertain the kids if needed. Need to come back to try the chocolate orange martini!

WiFi is poor, service is OK, options in the menu, if there any is poor...

Visited for Sunday lunch yesterday. Food was good, but roast potatoes were overcooked and hard. A nice building next to the park but the service was poor, probably due to inexperienced staff and a christening party arriving during our lunch and us being forced to move tables due to the mayhem! Asked for the bill twice, but in the end we had to go to the till to pay.

Perfect place for brunch or coffee with friends. Lovely little play area for toddlers inside and larger play area outside

Beautiful setting within the old kennels at Cirencester Park. Easy to park (and free, just gave your Reg number to staff). We had cocktails in the courtyard to start, the light n stormy was perfect! The menu was excellent, enough choice to cater for everyone without being over faced. The food was so beautifully prepared and presented that we actually ended up visiting twice in a week, the first with girlfriends and we returned for a Saturday night visit with the husbands! Staff were super friendly and service was faultless on both occassions. My partner and I both opted for the steak last night, which was by a long way the best steak I have eaten in Cirencester. It is so nice to have such amazing food in such a relaxed and beautiful setting. Will be visiting to trial the breakfast menu soon! So glad we have found this gem of a restaurant so near to home.

Wonderful food, amazing coffee and friendly prompt service

We went here from the caravan park and I must say we will never go there again. We ordered two teas and two burgers. One of the burgers was raw on the inside and the other looked very pink. We were offered a fresh burger but declined as that was the last thing we would want. No refund was offered.

Incredibly slow service, over an hour to get food and nearly 30min to get 4 bottles of beer to the table.

Visited the cafe today for breakfast. Arrived before 11am and paid 2 hours in the car park as we were hoping to have a nice, relaxing breakfast. Unfortunately we were told that they werent taking any more people for breakfast. The young lady we spoke to offered bacon or sausage sandwiches instead.We took the offer as we had already paid the car park. The bacon sandwich arrived within 5 minutes, very disappointed with the brioche, 2 slice bacon we received and at a cost of £6.50 when you can have a small breakfast for £9!!! We asked for our drinks 3 times and they arrive nearly 20 min after our sandwiches!! The place was busy however it wasnt full as lots of empty tables inside and out. Plenty of staff around so not sure why service was so slow! It is a nice looking place however based on what we have experience I would t visit again

Wonderful venue, Sunday lunch with family was excellent. Highly recommend it.

Popped in for a coffee, having heard that the cafe/ restaurant was up and running. A great new coffee venue, especially for those with dogs and those wanting to visit this spectacular park. Cakes are rather pricey, especially for their size, but the venue and the outside seating is excellent.

Had a really good quality brunch. Staff very friendly and efficient. Will be highly recommended this place and will visit frequently.

A wonderful place to sit outside on a sunny summer afternoon and drink cocktails in the park with friends.

Visited today following a lovely walk through Cirencester park accompanied by my little dog Biscuit. I ordered the superfood salad, but it was missing the beetroot and wild garlic pesto, so it was lacking oomph. To his credit, Sam went over and above to explain the reasons for the missing additions and he subsequently refunded my whole bill - including my glass of wine! I'll surely return, as the service was second to none.

Car park a nightmare for issuing tickets randomly! 2 minutes in the car park and a penalty within that time of £50. Joke!!! Who wants to pay for parking when they go to a cafe and get fined with no notice.

During a recent trip to Cirencester I ate in Roots and Seeds twice, for dinner and a Sunday lunch. The dinner, cod with broccoli and peas, with a side of spinach and salsa verde, was excellent! Beautifully cooked fish and a wonderfully flavoured side dish. The Sunday lunch was very good if your like your beef rare - very tender and with good vegetable sides. Although not cheap, the food is good value for the quality you get. The service was friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant bright and airy. The only negative is the price of alcoholic drinks, particularly the beers. All in all, a great place though.

We turned up just after they had opened on the 7th April and were greeted with friendly staff members and sat outside with our dog Poppy. Fast service for drinks followed by quick service for the Eggs Royal and scone. Both were great and reasonably priced. Will be returning next weekend to try out the full English.

Great food. Great for Coffee. Great for kids. Great for dogs. Great for families. Great for fresh air. Great for the soul. . It’s great ok. Ignore the one star reviews, they only just opened and places need to bed in. . Park the car, get the dog out and get OUTSIDE.

Outstanding in every way. I love this place so much I would happily eat there every day. The staff and service is amazing, genuinely warm and friendly and helpful. I went for coffee and cake first off which was so good, i booked in for dinner and then breakfast! Loved every deliscious mouthful and the cocktails at dinnner were awesome. The space is stylish, spacious relaxed and very well thought out including indoor and outdoor play areas for children. Love Roots and Seeds ethos, vision and the top notch eatery they have created. Total respect to Sam, Toby and team. I have already got another table booked for a family Sunday lunch in May and can't wait.
