The food was pretty bad and served ice cold. I wanted to send my plate back to be reheated however server did not return for almost 30 minutes so I ate it. Dessert was tasteless! Atmosphere was nice and staff very friendly. Not sure we will return unless they up their game.

Visited this little hidden gem a number of times since it first opened. The place has changed hands and sorry but it isn’t the same. The cafe is in a better location in the greenhouse as it has more room and the food was lovely. Although the soup portion size was small it suited what we wanted today but it was small. The place has lost something and was disappointing. The gardens are still not in a good state either and they no longer sell herbs. The shop could be so much better

First time here , took my wife for lunch as I knew she would love a wander in the garden afterwards. I had soup and a cheese scone and both were very tasty. She had sausage and bean cassoulet which I tried and we both loved it. She finished with a delicious fruit scone, jam and clotted cream. We really enjoyed our pots of tea from local small business Shibui. A lot of reviews were critical of the servers but we found them to be polite, attentive and friendly. Portions were good and we felt we had good value for money for quality food. When you're finished you can wander around the large greenhouse that houses the cafe. We also enjoyed walking round the gardens. They grow all sorts of plants as botanicals for their on site gin distillery. We do a tour next time we come back.

An excellent place for lunch or dinner overlooking the harbour. We were well looked after by Maria Elena and staff. We would come again. Thank you

Tienes que reservar una mesa a través de un sitio web a la llegada, algo que en realidad no funcionó tres veces lo intenté y nadie lo comprobó. ¿Seguramente un lápiz y papel cumplirían con las pautas actuales? Lo logré horas más tarde, pero presumiblemente sería inexacto para el seguimiento y la localización.El menú tenía tres cosas y había muchas más, todo un misterio con el que el servidor que murmuraba no podía ayudar.Teníamos dos bollos, que decían ser queso, que habíamos visto al entrar. No tenían queso y tenían la desagradable adición de romero. Me gusta mucho esa hierba, pero en los bollos dejó un regusto horrible.Tomamos un té y algo descrito como aplica y baya, esta última resultó ser una caja de cartón para niños con una pajita que costaba casi dos libras.La factura era elevada, el servicio deficiente y la experiencia claramente normal.

Lovely setting and staff were exceptionally nice but I felt the price for 2 luke warm cappuccinos and 2 small slices of cake was very expensive at over ÂŁ12.00. sorry but wasn't worth it for me.

Con el levantamiento de las restricciones, fue encantador poder visitar los jardines y la distancia social en la zona de asientos para tomar un café por la mañana. Café encantador pero muy poca variedad de pasteles para comer, lo cual fue decepcionante.Hermosos jardines y plantas a la venta. Los niños estaban encantados de ver los grandes cerdos negros en su corral.

Disfrutamos mucho de nuestra visita aquí para el té de la tarde. Estaba ocupado y no había muchas mesas, pero tuvimos mucha suerte. Teníamos tés, cafés, bollos y pasteles, todo lo cual estaba delicioso. El personal fue amable y muy servicial. Puedes comprar hierbas y otros artículos botánicos, muebles antiguos y muchas otras cosas interesantes en la tienda. ¡También tienen abejas! Tienen un jardín muy agradable para caminar antes o después de su visita a la cafetería. Recomiendo encarecidamente este lugar encantador.

This place was going like a fairground today at lunchtime. Many young families enjoying lunch out. Butternut squash soup served in tin mugs with delicious cheese artisan bread. Very good and prompt service. Plenty of homemade cakes on offer too though we didn’t partake.

Vine para el domingo por la tarde 'té y pastel' Qué decepción. Apenas había pasteles, así que elegimos una rodaja de la llovizna de naranja que estaba allí, con 2 cafés. El servicio y el café eran geniales, a pesar de que estaban muy ocupados, tampoco esperamos demasiado. PERO la tarta de naranja llovizna estaba rancia. Regresé cuando los pasteles 'frescos' estaban allí, buena variedad, elegí el pastel de café, no era café ni fresco. De hecho, fue tan malo que dejé la mayor parte. ¿No eres un cliente feliz?

Ideal on a hot summers day but a little gloomy on others. Not keen on enamel table ware. The fare was favourable.

He estado usando este servicio de café con menos frecuencia ya que otros lugares locales ofrecen un mejor valor. Sería mejor si se ofrecieran quiches calientes en lugar de fríos, ¡y quizás mejores tazas! Los pasteles son excelentes y el servicio es amable. Genial para ver los nuevos desarrollos y para ver a las familias animarse con las actividades para niños que se ofrecen.

Flavoursome teas, cakes, quiche and I presume soup, surrounded by gin, herb, plant and related production. I adored the food, earnest staff and the attractions of a great glass house with herbs for sale. Do not drive past.

Aww, este lugar definitivamente vale la pena una visita, especialmente en un día soleado (¡lo cual es raro, lo sé!) ¡Hermosos jardines y la cafetería es muy linda! El personal es encantador y grandes girts único para comprar. También sígalos en Facebook, ya que tienen talleres durante todo el año para que las personas participen en

Para almorzar en un día frío, nuestro alegre camarero nos mostró una sala de leña con una estufa de leña, por lo que era un lugar muy agradable para disfrutar de un almuerzo de tres platos vegetarianos. Magnífico muffin de tortilla seguido de un sabroso guiso en una jarra y rematado con una tarta de frangipan de carne picada muy rica que tenía la pasta más fina. . . Muy impresionante y super valor. Vale la pena una visita y volveremos cuando tengamos habitación!

Revisited here as the first time they were just closing. We had two coffees and a slice of vegan cake. The cake was slightly dry however tasty! Prices were good. Also purchased two small bottles of gin. Very cute place.

Love this place. Cakes are amazing and the coffees and infuses as well. If you haven't been there yet, make sure you stop there to relax half an hour in the glasshouse.

Arrived and were left wondering what we do,order at the counter or sit down. No one acknowledged our arrival and just stared at us like idiots so we sat down and went to the counter ended up have scones which were nice but that’s about were it ended was not a great visit but maybe our expectations were unfair. We will visit again as it’s a lovely place and have a better experience.

My friend and I often meet there for some of their delicious coffee and baking. The berry crumble slice and the scones are particularly delicious. Wrap up warm if you go in winter as on our last visit it was extremely cold. A wood burning stove would be a real asset.

Visited on a quiet pre-Christmas afternoon. Excellent apple and date slice. Partner’s chocolate Xmas log slice was really good too. Cappuccino up to same high standards (no choice on degree of fat in milk though if that matters to you). The atmosphere here is pleasant, and this visit was one of the best as it does get crowded and people queuing by your table can be off putting. Go there, but quiet damp days are best!

This place is beautiful! Easy to find and well signposted with ample parking. Beautiful flowers everywhere with nice benches to rest on whilst browsing, an old car with tables and chairs beside it, a nice greenhouse walkway with herbs, fruits and growing vegetables etc. Little wooden house with more hidden tables and chairs. A nice little sit in/take away tea shop, selling cold juices and hot drinks. Cakes crisps, preserves and handmade crafts, a little on the pricey side but a lovely treat. I believe they do events in the evenings and kids are well catered for, plus it’s free to browse and visit. Worth a visit! You can pick up handy hints along the way and purchase almost anything

Not a secret for locals, this little cafe is an absolute gem. Great coffee, great cakes and quiches (not to mention the cheese scones!) with friendly service. Also love the hidden areas for seating inside the Glasshouse and the relaxed vibe - a perfect place to spend the morning catching up with friends!

Never even heard of this place, secret indeed!! Had quiche and scone. Both were the best I've ever tasted. Loved the different seating choices, cafe, patio, terrace, green house. Meant everyone was spread out so felt very relaxed. Will definitely return.

Ther are a lot of gluten free choices here, however if they are busy the service is very slow. Great coffee and good choice of herbal teas. The choice of sitting in the green house is a nice change especially if it is sunny but cold as it is lovely and warm in there.

By day the Secret Herb Garden is just that - a horticulturists paradise of herbs tended by Hamish and his team. With Cafe and other facilities and services - including wedding receptions. But the delight for us was to attend a FULL MOON dining experience - hosted by fine dining specialist Chefs and their team - (on this occassion - The Norn Restaurant Leith - Edinburgh ). A marvellous 4 course dinner was provided with a treat of uniquely created Hors d'ouvres accommpanied by Vermouth on ice with "Sticky Willy". To be honest the event should be called "Secret Full Moon" dining - because the events are so well attended - you have to book well in advance. And not expensive!

A hidden gem in a lovely setting near Edinburgh. Friendly service, the best bacon rolls ever, delicious scones, cakes and traybakes, along with excellent coffee or tea and a variety of soft drinks. A bonus is the craft work on sale made by local artisans. Can't recommend it enough! Eliz
