Well stocked and food value. Staff slightly hit or miss in terms of helpfulness. Found what I wanted and didn't pay as much as I would have at Dobbies (or other nurseries nearby)

Best Garden center I've ever been to! Plenty of stock. Art and craft supplies, furniture, pet supplies, books, gifts. Has a Regatta and Craghoppers outdoor clothing section. Helpful staff. Staff work really hard to keep things tidy. Plants healthy. The restaurant food is amazing. Lovely selection of cakes. Would recommend the cooked breakfast. Food comes out so quick. Tables are always clean. Seating areas indoors and outdoors. When sunny weather it's nice to sit outdoors. There is also a playground for kids. Dog friendly they supply water bowls. Garden center also sells fresh baked goods and wine in the food section. There is also an art gallery and museum section. Great day out for family or visiting alone. Peaceful atmosphere. Relaxing music is played in the store.

Fantastic garden centre with so much to browse and purchase. Will definitely visit again when I visit family in Brighton. I live 135 miles away, so it's a little too far for regular visit. If I was closer it would be one of my go to places.

Excellent garden centre in Hassocks. Good range of plants, pots and gardening hardware. There is also a nice restaurant and coffee shop and a decent food hall.

My favourite place to shop for growing salad and veg. Brilluant selection of trees, Acers, Climbers and Roses. Lovely coffee shop and deli, although their coffee cake today was hard and did not taste of coffee! They often have the plants I am looking for, but cannot find in other garden centres. Helpful staff.

Exceptional garden centre; whatever I need, I seem to always be able to get in there, whether it's plants, bbq stuff, garden lights, gifts, it's not cheap but always good quality. Playground for kids a nice touch and the restaurant is great for both breakfast and lunch. We recently bought some garden furniture which again has proved to be great quality and we've been really pleased with it. There are some really good garden centres in the mid sussex area, however I think this one is probably the best.

Really nice garden centre with a good choice of garden paraphernalia as well as furniture and other mixed items. Nice little museum of lawn mowers! Two cafes and nice little food shop. One cafe does full food options, the other snacks, cakes, pastries. And the nice thing is they feel very different in atmosphere. Always consistent

My first visit, its an absolutely fabulous nursery. There were so many things to look at, gifts, garden furniture, ornaments, clothing, handbags, plants, the list goes on and on. Even the art gallery was wonderful. We had lunch in the cafe which is very popular and understandable so. The food was delicious, nicely presented, and the wait reasonable. I loved the decor, the beams and lighting were stunning. We are definitely going again, and it's inspired me for Christmas gifts. I could spend hours in there, no wonder the carpark is so large! I'm sure others feel the same π

We came to just enjoy the day with my family To get some garden accessories and plants for our new house, it was really nice place plenty of beautiful plants to choose and stuff, we decided to have lunch with our chihuahua after ordering food in the counter with our small dog we sat on the table eating our lovely dinner when a member of staff approaches us and told us that dog are not allowed so we have to move with our food into a cafe area, it was so embarrassing that they didnβt told us while we are in the counter ordering food where they can clearly say that dogs are not allowed where they are allowed everywhere else. We just feel so embarrassed and humiliated that we didnβt even finish our food and just decided to go and not buy anything else.

An excellent garden centre with an extensive and comprehensive range of products. One could easily spend a whole day shopping and looking at the marvellous range of plants and shrubs. Our visit included a wonderful meal in a large restaurant on site. Other attractions include a museum, garden sheds, offices and garden family sun rooms that are beautifully presented. A large car park too! I thoroughly recommend a visit but be prepared to find yourself wanting to spend a few hours here at least.

Everything here is very carefully maintained.

Sheds and gorgeous party rooms for your outside area. A smashing cafe rounds it all up. All costs a little more than nearer to town but π it's worth it. Nice clean toilets.

This is a lovely garden centre, lots of nice home bits and pieces as well as the plants. Cafe serves very nice food. Only gave 4 stars because the majority of the young staff in the cafe are sullen and miserable and clearly don't understand that to work in hospitality you should at least try to hide the fact that you think customers are a pain !

Tates Garden Centres Online ordering service is appalling. The tech admin process is very badly set up, there is no no email or txt sent out to confirm delivery date. I had The Old Barn Dial Post give me information regarding my online order that proved to be totally wrong. When the delivery arrived from Southdowns Garden Centre Hassocks I had to return over half the order because the plants were totally dried out brown leaves, dead flowers and only fit for the bin. Even the van delivery men were embarrassed and apologising. This is the second time that I have had issues with orders and I would say that as lovely as the actual centres are DO NOT use their order services IN ANY WAY, they are a disaster!π©π€

We had a great visit, on a busy Saturday. We had lunch too, it was chaotic trying to get a table. Food was good, cutlery and glasses fresh out the wash, however only niggle was the glasses still looked filthy, I think it was more scratches than dirty π so maybe some of the glasses need refreshing. Otherwise, easy to access baby changing in the disabled toilets, wondered round quite happily. Lots to look at and lots I wanted π Parking was okay, as we parked up and round to the left, there's not really clear markings for a path outside so with some dodgy drivers was dodge the cars. π will probably visit again but at a hopefully less busy time.

Nice place to visit with a lot of interesting features. Most of the staff are lovely. Kim (I think that's her name) is always happy help and she never takes a complaint personally. A couple of people said to me they were shocked to see people allowing their dogs to sit on the seats and people feeding them on the tables while staff seemed oblivious. Also someone said they refused an ice cream because the girl serving it wasn't wearing gloves and had just handled money from the till. I guess that's understandable considering we have just come out of a pandemic. Maybe staff need a little more training on hygiene and being more aware of what's going on in the restaurant. Still, it's a great place to visit with plenty to see.

We've gotten to know the staff well as we visit every time I go to my mums house. Its a nice cafe with loads of seats and very good priced quality food. I'm not a vegetarian but I always pick the Vege breakfast because its delecious. I have had other set breakfasts in the past and they're all good but the Vege breakfast is just right for me.
