Sapcote Garden Centre Ltd in Blaby - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Signage on 2 for £10 geraniums was incorrect. Stated 5 ltr but there were only 7 ltr plants on the stand. Only discovered when got to till. Senior staff who pointed it out was not there when we went back so unable to tell her about their error. Warned another customer who were looking at the offer when we returned the plants.

Fourth year I have visited this garden centre and it just gets better and better. Restaurant food today was very good and great service as a well. The Salix trees I purchased 4 years ago are amazing and we have added olive trees and many other plants from the centre. Today we purchased our furniture set that will be delivered tomorrow. The staff were so helpful and knowledgeable

Took a friend to go plant shopping and catch up. Plants purchased and a lovely lunch. Fish finger sandwich and toasted panini and a pot of tea for two. The cafe was busy, people were always coming and going so getting a table was easy. Food served swiftly and hot.

This was by far the worst experience in the cafe i have ever had in all the time we have been going here the food look like it had be rushed & no care in the presentation.

Fantastic little garden centre and dog friendly too. lots to see, beautiful selection, friendly staff, plenty of parking.

Went for Christmas decorations. Very good place with many decorations available and also dog friendly! Will be returning next year. The cafe is also top quality a little bit expensive but can't complain for the decent slice of cake available!

A very dull warehouse very basic with extortionately over priced goods. I was shocked at how the Christmas decorations were priced compared to other leading retailers. Frankky im suprised they remain open the prices are not just high they are ludicrously high. Cafe..bland. Won't return

Looking to kill time before a hotel check-in, we decided to visit some nurseries/garden centres in the Coventry area using Google maps and ………. There was one clear winner - Sapcote. The reason is simple - the range and quality of their plants and the low prices. Bought huge Echinaceas, knifophias and others. Just wish we didn’t live Two hundred miles away.

A good selection of plants and nursery goods. They have a great selection of garden furniture, prices fair. At Xmas they have massive selection of Xmas goods. There is also a nice cafe. Also friendly lads outside to help you load your car. Well worth a visit

Great garden centre, lovely lunch there too, and dog friendly under cover not in actual restaurant but that's fine, as we were still inside

More of a Christmas decorations shop than a Garden centre. Very untidy and water damaged stock on display. Go to Hill Top between Shilton and Coventry and see how Kevin and Grant can make a family run garden centre a pleasure to visit.

Christmas decorations galore! It feels very Christmassy and there are lots of Christmas decorations to choose from although things in there seem expensive. Cafe was good for a drink and lunch despite the long queues. Staff serving looked like they’d been drafted in from their job in the plant area - man seating people wearing joggers and a sweaty tshirt and very sweaty himself, lad serving food in ripped joggers and red garden centre sweatshirt. Not very professional looking and not good in the cleanliness side!

Visited the garden centre yesterday, it’s a joy to walk round, nicely laid out. Puts you in the Christmas mood. It’s not cheap. Some items were overpriced. If you know what you are looking for they will have it. Plenty of staff around to ask if needed. Dog friendly.

Nice display, but surprised how much they have put their prices up this year! Especially as garden centres buy their christmas goods in Feb/March!

Had a look at sapcote garden centre christmas decorations. Nicely laid out but have to say they have really put their prices up!! Like the new area where the garden furniture normally is kept but I'm afraid the cost has put me off going back

Most garden centre eateries are not remarkable but Sapcote was a most pleasant surprise and not over-priced and the staff are nice too.

Very few disabled car parking spaces, I drove round and waited until a space became available. I was pushing my elderly vulnerable mother in her wheelchair, we came here for her to purchase plants. The first trolley I used disappeared, when I'd left it to look at more plants, so I had to back track, find another trolley and replace the plants. Staff could clearly see I was struggling I had to leave my Mother alone whilst I took the trolley to near the tills area. There is a huge amount of Christmas products but I found it somewhat untidy, I noticed they have 10% off Christmas products until 30th September. I couldn't get mum's wheelchair around all the displays. There were no tables available in the restaurant so we had lunch at a pub nearby. The car park would benefit from having more disabled spaces

Visited the cafe at the garden centre & for the first time we didn't get saled & coleslaw with the pannie meal why is this we were very disappointed. You got just crisps?

Came here mostly for lunch, but this garden centre has the best Christmas display we have seen. There is so much choice, the displays of miniature villages are very good you must come to see for yourself. The cafe is also excellent, staff friendly and...

Decent display I suppose but they need to sort out the entrance/exit procedure Not happy to be accused of stealing a £1.99 soft toy purchased for and held by grandson. Shocked to be approached by a rude kid in a scruffy hi- vis jacket and...

The place is just too hectic, car park is a mess, at least last year they had a structure and you wasn’t missing spaces, due to having to drive around in circles! Coffee shop has no structure either, especially when busy! All tables are full,...

The menu is very poor, my mother had a jacket potato. Bad mistake, potato was still frozen on the inside and for the price we had not expected to be served with frozen food. It was a lovely place pre Covid but now stay away...

The cafe used to be so good, the breakfast menu was extensive and the quality of the food great. The menu now is really disappointing, the only item relating to breakfast which is available is toast. We won’t be returning till the menu improves.

Very impressed on our first visit. Good range of plants and lovely Christmas display, all at reasonable prices. I felt unwell during my visit and the care and kindness shown to me was outstanding. Highly recommended. We will definitely return.

Superb range of plug plants, ready for new season, Then go for a GREAT coffee and food in the restaraunt. All seeds are half price ALL through the year.

We went for lunch and although very busy were served quickly and pleasantly. The paninis were filled well and served with accompanying salad and crisps

Had breakfast/lunch here several times. Food is nice, service can be a bit of a hit and miss. Website is rubbish. I have added menu in pictures

This a very nice garden centre it was recommended to us from a family member for there wonderful Christmas decorations, today they were all half price

Popped in for breakfast. Staff pleasant. Food arrived fairly quickly even though it was Xmas eve and the place was busy. Food was good, although I would have preferred by beans a little hotter.

First visit for me today. The Christmas display was amazing, the best in a garden centre that I think I’ve seen. Stopped for a bite to eat too, lovely friendly young lady on the till, food was delicious.

Visited on a Sunday, the cafe was busy but not full. There were around 6 staff on the tills/waiting on, which if you ask me is plenty, however the queue was horrendous... and no one seemed to care? At one point, there were around 15...

Came to this Centre today, with daughter (she to buy winter veggies to plant in garden) and me to look at the lovely Christmas decorations - what a lovely layout! Beautiful and, in my opinion, far better than other Centres in the area. Finished off...

We often attend Sapcote garden centre as always guaranteed a lovely meal. My boys love going as they have alot of choice..The staff are always friendly, the restaurant is always clean and tidy and you can tell its popular as we often struggle for a table.Will be there again soon.

Firstly, I find sapcote is a refreshing breath of take air in the garden centre business, as an avid plant myself I find it very satisfying to see my bretherin and sisterin thriving at the centre, they are very accomidating and hospitalise us back to full health! I had the chips there once, they were very thick (pronounced THick) and also the salt and pepper is very nice, sadly we didn't explore much of the car park which I would say is their main attraction, anywhomst I must go hibernate now,I love you, goodnight

Visited here recently. The food was nice and a good portion size. Definitely recommend the food and drinks.

Visited this Garden Center last Saturday, mainly to look at their Garden Furniture. Whilst we were there we decided to visit the Restaurant for a light lunch, boy were we disappointed.We chose the ham and cheese Panini, when they arrived the contents could not have been more minuscule, hardly any ham at all. in all fairness they did swap it for another similar one which was no better. We then decided on a couple of cakes. Both were tasteless especially the extremely small portion of lemon meringue.

We use this garden centre on occasions sometimes we go for coffee and a scone we have also had sandwiches at lunchtime however this time the sandwiches were very poor nicely presented but there was hardly any cheeses in the supposedly cheese and pickle it was more like pickle with a smidgen of cheese!!!

Often visit here for morning coffee/afternoon tea (as with many places these days, a limited choice of gluten-free cakes, but the news is that more gf choice could be on the way here!). Sometimes, as today, I have the gf breakfast and it's one of the best in the area. For £5.95 you get 2 sausages, 2 thickly sliced bacon slices, fried egg, toast and baked beans - all cooked to perfection. Larger options are also available with gf hash brown, mushrooms etc. Well worth a visit to this garden centre just for the cafe. Lovely relaxed environment with great food at a good price.

I have visited many times and have always had good food and excellent service. I particularly like the cooked breakfast and the cakes and find the food to be reasonably priced. The service is also very efficient with no queuing for ages.

Went there with a friend had a couple of hours spare. Never spent anytime looking round centre just sat in restaurant. Restaurant is large but our order was quickly taken and food appeared about 20 minutes later even though restaurant was busy. We had jacket potatoes with fresh salad. Food and staff were lovely. Plus the place was very clean

Had a sneaky cup of coffee and cake at Sapcote Garden Centre. Cake and coffee very nice.

Superb roast dinner perfect better than any pub roast lunch hearty portions too the roast beef was cut perfectly not waffer thin and two massive size slices with roast poatoes and lovely yorkshire pudding that looked homemade with side dishes of extra gravy and veg and nice atmosphere well worth a vist

Lovely food and they have good vegan options. Food came out within 15 minutes and it was a busy bank hol. Will be returning.

Good open sandwiches and jacket potatoes. There is a Sunday roast, although we didn't see many people taking that option. Hard-working and very pleasant waitresses who were only too happy to help.

Here you will find an excellent choice of main meals, lite bites,sandwiches and cakes and don't for get the breakfasts. There is also a choice of daily specials.

Visited on bank holiday Monday around (11ish so they had not been open for long)for morning coffee and cake. The selection of cake was very very disappointing, donuts that looked like they were from Asda and so do the cup cakes. considering it was bank holiday you would of thought you would have had a good selection of cakes out, there was no Victoria sponge, chocolate cake, coffee cake etc. So I ended up with the only slice of lemon drizzle cake which was very very dry like it had been left out over night. My friend had a scone again very dry and very crumbley. Not the best experience considering we have visited before I will be second thinking it now.

Popped in for a cuppa & toasted teacake after visiting their sister company at Sharnford. Coffee, tea & teacakes lovely as usual. However there appears to be a disparity between quality & prices of some of the plants? My wife insisting that we return to Sharnford as plants for hanging baskets were better value?

Friendly efficient staff. Lady making the coffee was obviously busy, checked over her shoulder and saw me waiting, called a colleague over to serve me

This is an absolute gem of a cafe in a garden centre. The food is freshly prepared and there’s always a good selection of cakes and pastries.

Whilst on a visit to this garden centre we decided to have lunch in their cafe.

Visited here for a quick coffee and catch up with a friend on a Sunday morning. Cafe opened at 10am and by 10.30 already busy with people coming for breakfast. Nice food and good service. Hot chocolate was excellent. Will definitely visit again

Nice garden centre, lots to browse around, cafe quite good, food nice plus they have a dog friendly area.

The cafe at Sapcote Farden centre serves delicious food and the staff are really delightful. At lunchtime two of us ate off the light bites menu and added a bowl of crunchy chips. The food was hot, fresh and very tasty. The coffee was very good too. Would recommend this as a place to meet up with friends, There are lots of tables. Didn’t indulge in the homemade cakes but they looked excellent, maybe a treat for next time!

On previous visits to this establishment we have been made to feel very welcome, hence today’s repeat visit.

Great customer service, great food and lots of it! Definitely value for money I will return when working this way

Visited the cafe on Friday. Lovely clean surroundings, great choice, good food, excellent service and very reasonably priced. Well done to all concerned.

This page seems to focus on the cafe/restaurant at Sapcote but my review is focusing on the garden centre as a whole.

Lovely breakfasts. Very tasty with good quality ingredients. Great service, you ordered from the till, collected your cutlery and sauces etc then everything was brought to your table. Couldn’t fault it.

Thoroughly enjoyed a Lunch in the Specials- a delicious,generously portioned Roast Turkey lunch with all the trimmings. Piping hot fresh vegetables and buttery roasted potatoes. A proper Sunday lunch!!

Had breakfast in there several times now & we can highly recommend it quality food & very clean & service is brilliant.

Went to this garden centre as it is halfway between mine and my daughters home address. My daughter had googled and messaged to see if it was dog friendly and it stated that it was. The signs were very poor if not non existent to where dogs could go in the cafe. We found that they could sit in part of it but you had to go through the main part of the cafe to get to the part where dogs could go or so my daughter thought as there were no signs saying anything. We sat in the dog ‘ friendly ‘ part which was freezing. My daughter came through the cafe only to be chased after by an extremely irate member of the garden centre staff telling her she needed to walk round the other way she was already at the door to the part where dogs could go so came straight through. We sat and chatted for around 10 minutes when the same member of staff approached my daughter telling her off for coming through the cafe saying it’s health and safety as people were eating there. People were also eating in the dog ‘fr ‘ area too and no one else had dogs! The staff member was very angry and caused my daughter to defend her actions stating that there were no signs telling her where and where not she could walk with her dog. The staff member said they were clearly visible around the area. We could not see these visible signs anywhere when we left which was very soon after this incident. What surprised me more is that the toilets were off this part of the cafe and all the doors were opened which i thought more of a health and safety hazard than a puppy walking through a cafe!!

This garden centre has evolved over the years and the restaurant has provided a welcome facility especially for people walking to it with their dogs as there is an excellent separate area adjacent to the main restaurant that caters for our canine friends and their owners. The food is good and even on a busy weekend is soon served. The staff are also very friendly. Rather a long walk for able bodied people to get to the dining area but there is a short cut for people with disabilities or in wheelchairs..

This garden centre is a lovely place to visit for a coffee and cake, lunch or as we have today brunch. I brought my parents who enjoyed a look round the garden centre which is well stocked and cared for at value for money. Already there is a huge Christmas shop as well as craft and cards.

Service was quick - really hot tasty breakfast (not greasy on the plate!). Nice hot drinks and clean cafe. Would recommend!

This was a repeat visit , previously coffee and cake - verdict - brilliant.

Stopped here for lunch the staff were lovely even helped sort something for my mum who is lactose intolerant . Unfortunately was let down by the burger i had which was tasteless in fact it looked like it had been cooked earlier then heated up was a grey colour and chewy just not nice. Would have loved to give an amazing review as stopped for cake and coffee before which was lovely (will stick to that in future) but unfortunately the food really wasnt up to much.

Arrived to find new coffee restaurant. It was nice to order food and drinks which were bought to the table hot. Reasonably priced coffee and lovely ginger and pumpkin cake. Very tasty.

I visited the garden centre cafe for the first time with my 3 small granddaughters. The staff were very patient and friendly to them when we were ordering our food and drinks, and when it was all served to us.

Average garden centre. Nicely laid out cafe but charged £1.90 for 2 slices of bread and butter! Ordered fish and chips and they bought ham and chips! I have visited this cafe before and the menu seems to have gone down hill. A little above their station me thinks. Disappointed

called in sgc as we passed by. didn't realise it was there before. large car park so no trouble parking. great selection of plants, shrubs, etc. a lot of different varieties from other garden centres. nice shop but not over the top as many centres are. prices very competitive as well. really enjoyed visit will recommend to all

Lovely place with a huge variety of plants, gifts, ornaments, everything you could possibly need and more! Perfect for a snack, coffee and meal too! No better local place

Made the visit specifically to tie in with lunch .The cafe is large ,spacious with a semi outside area with a lovely breeze .The cappuccino was very nice with a sprinkling of dark chocolate which made sugar unnecessary,after that it all went a bit wrong .Opted for a jacket potato with prawns .Whilst the potato looked nice it had been clearly cooked some time before and had turned into a luke warm soggy mush in the middle with the most minuscule portion of prawns I’ve had in my life .It all could of been fabulous but unfortunately was not

First visit for breakfast went very well. Fresh and well cooked. Good quality ingredients. Served nicely. The sun shining brought many people out. Bought hanging baskets for our patio and sat admiring them when we got home.

This tea room is a definite asset to the garden centre. The food is very reasonably priced and the drinks hot and plentiful. Always a good place to pop into after browsing the plants on offer.

The food, pot of tea and service were exceptional considering how busy they were. Can't find fault with anything. Even pleasantly surprised how clean the toilets were.

Fantastic food, drinks, customer service and environment! Love living on the doorstep of this great place! Lots of items to choose from, cafe is lovely! High quality throughout! Whether going for a browser garden items, Sunday roast or a quick coffee and a catch up! It really is a great place all round

We started our visit in the cafe which is situated right next to the Garden Centre. You simply walk through the exit door and you are amidst the plants. Friendly service and good quality snacks with our coffee. Quite a large cafe as I should imagine this place can get quite busy at weekends.

Good garden centre with plenty of choices of plants at affordable prices. Cafe is very good with excellent choices.

Just visited the cafe for breakfast with a couple of friends, can't fault it will be calling again. Very good value for money £6.95 for a large full Enlish.

We had lunch here as we were looking for a quick meal. This was ideal very close to the M69. I had a gammon steak and my wife had scampi. All very nice and fresh.Very good value.

It’s no secret that garden centres can charge obscene amounts of money for tea and cake, but frankly I don’t care! I love the cake selection! I love the seasonal hot drinks! I love the specials selection! I love it!

Had a few OK breakfasts in the past This time as it was lunch time I chose a the 'beefburger' Two dry, tasteless patties of meat, a couple of slices of plastic cheese packed in a dry bun with a slide of tomato and a lettuce leaf. Nice fries was the only plus. Won't be repeating that experience

Having a new garden to get into shape we often visit Sapcote for advice and great plants, this time we had more time to sit and enjoy lunch in the restaurant. It has a lovely ambience and a concise menu. We had salads and jacket potatoes. All our meals arrived quickly fresh cooked and full of flavour. There's both indoor and outdoor undercover seating and being free from the constraints of chain garden centres puts a different view on gardening ...

Had amazing meals and cakes here, massive conservatory seating area and it is a gem for Sapcote. Really clean, friendly staff and plenty of choice on the menu! Definitely be back.

This place is just down the road from us, so is now our local. We have always had good food from here, some of the specials are really excellent. The staff are really good and very friendly. Recommended

the garden centre is fab and the café is out standing the food is amazing and very good prices the staff are so helpful and efficient

Excellent garden center..great choice and quality..helpful friendly and knowledgeable staff. Always plenty in stock..nearly stocked by entire garden with their plants and garden furniture..nice little cafe too!

Went here with my in laws for lunch but this is not the first time we have been. The cafe there is excellent great food the most amazing full English and service is always really good. I cannot recommend it enough people.

I thought they were getting better until I tried their Sunday lunch. They do try hard, but sadly not hard enough. My husband had the beef - not too bad & I had the chicken, a very small thigh & drumstick. Sadly no taste to it & not much more to the meagre portion of veg for two. Very little gravy either. My lunch was served separately with a Yorkshire pud stuffed with cranberry sauce. Why?? Yes it looked pretty but the cranberries served straight from the fridge caused my yorkie to turn cold very quickly. We went home very dissatisfied & had to eat some sandwiches. We won't be having that again. Whilst I think about it, the awful tortilla chips they serve are quite disgusting, utterly devoid of any taste. Why don't they serve up some better quality crisps......kettle for instance?? The salad they also serve up is very dry, It looks nice but needs a salad dressing to go with it. That brings me to the paninis, served on a tiny plate with no room to manoeuvre. One false move & it's all over the table, or the floor. Please can we have bigger plates & to top off the Panini or the sandwiches, could we not have some coleslaw on the plate too?? This combination would be so much nicer. With a little more effort, this could be a really nice place to while away some time over a decent plate of well cooked food. I'm not sure I want to eat here again & probably won't. They might like to look at their displays as well. Everything seems chaotic & no order to the shelving. It's a shame it's not thought out a little better as it's a nice, not so little garden centre selling a good range of plants. Please think about what you are doing/serving in the kitchen, it could be so much better. People such as us who live in the village would want to return more often.

Went with my husband for late breakfast/early lunch. I had poached eggs on a muffin, with an additional sausage pinched off my husbands full english breakfast, both dishes were great.

My daughter took me for lunch on Thursday, delicious fresh food and excellent quality. I had quiche which was really tasty, a properly made quiche, not bought in, my daughter had salmon salad. A huge portion of poached salmon, anchovies and cripsy bacon bits. Well worth a visit

Wanted lunch around 11. Looked at the menu on the table and went to order was told it's only 11am. I asked what she meant by that and she said it's the lunch menu. I asked why it was on the table if they weren't serving it. It doesn't state on the menu that it's from 12 onwards. I ordered something from the breakfast menu to be told they don't swap items i.e. instead of hash brown extra bacon. Told they charge additionally. Everywhere else I have been this wouldn't be a problem. Customer service training required. Not everyone likes a full English and substitutes items. And don't speak to me like I'm an idiot for ordering off the wrong menu when its on the table and doesn't state times. Also every single free table was filthy and the lad clearing them was moaning about having to do so loud enough for customers to hear. On the plus side the food that I was allowed was nice.

Great food with a variety of meals, deserts and drinks for all age ranges! Meeting all dietary requirements, lovely staff and perfect location for a quick coffee and cake if not wanting a meal! Then you can browse the garden centre which has lots of lovely items to offer!

We were second in the queue on a Sunday afternoon before 3pm wanting to order some hot food in the cafe. The customer in front was paying by card which the credit card machine could not read.

Took a friend here for breakfast and we enjoyed a warm friendly welcome and great service. Food was lovely and the surroundings super. Good range of foods available and will certainly go back here.

Went on a Sunday to buy some bits for the garden and as per most centre its mainly selling stuff not for the garden with a cafe. The car park was rammed and parking was chaotic and completely unorganised. Cars were driving away without stopping.

We had scones with jam,cream and a latte for one person, and a gluten free cherry bakewell and a deluxe/luxury hot chocolate for one person. The hot chocolate was lovely and actually tasted of chocolate! So many places sell bog-standard hot chocolate but then do great coffees so it was nice to have both at a good standard! It was a lovely surprise to have gluten free choices as for once I could eat something for a change rather than fantasising and then not being able to indulge!

Either a waitress got it wrong or this cafe has!

This garden centre was crying out for a cafe, and now it has one it is most definitely worth a visit. The staff are very friendly and the food is delicious. I particularly like the fish and chips. There is plenty of parking and the garden centre is reasonably priced.

Lovely staff, great plants and they even let me dogs sit in the outdoor seating area for a sandwich and tea, lovely garden centre
