The Boiler House Restaurant in Doncaster

The cafe is now open was closed for a while for refurbishment we particularly like the sandwiches which are served with crisps and coleslaw. We usually get a bowl of chips to share and its quite filling. Its also set amongst the plants and covers a large area so you're not squashed together. Lets hope it stops like that. The hot chocolate lets it down though

We came here for lunch with my mum in a wheelchair. It was easy for us to find a table. We had a wonderful lunch and would recommend to anyone to try this place out.

Always busy needs more space at counter queue for drinks first then order food cantankerous a while bt food quality good and do carvery on Sundays. Live entertainment too.

Arrived within the serving time for breakfast as advertised on Google. We were told breakfast stopped at 11.15 not 11.30. Change your Google advertising it’s a simple thing to do. Table was filthy, see photo. Coffee was luke warm, but didn’t want to get another as the queue was almost the length of the restaurant. I run a small business and have 180+ reviews on Trustpilot in the last 2 years, all of them 5 star. It’s not difficult it’s just hard work and caring about your customers. 30 minutes and still waiting for sandwiches. It’s worth the 3.5 Google review it has, in fact that may be a little generous.

A lovely choice of cooked food, sandwiches & cakes. Lovely coffee & tea. Well worth a visit.

This is a fabulous place to eat . Food is always lovely . Shame they sell out of alot of food quite quick . I've been twice at different times of day and not been able to have what I wanted off the menu . But food and staff are lovely x

Wat a lovely place. Live singer on the day we visited, the carvery was beautiful. Staff were very friendly.

The lady who served me on the till was so lovely and bubbly with a big smile on her face. The cakes are so big! The tiramisu was gorgeous.

I am sure they can do much better

I ordered the Markham burger... it was dripping in fat and onion rings and chips were over cooked and also ultra greasy... the worst burger ive ever had ... i will never go again terrible ..

I would give this 0 stars if possible! Went for breakfast. Ordered 2 bacon and sausage sandwiches with no fat and a toasted teacake. the sandwiches came with bacon and a ridiculous amount of fat on them and only 1 sausage. The toasted teacake was for our little boy who couldn't eat it as it was that hard you could bang it on the table. I brought it to the attention of the young girl who cleared the table (very miserably) and all I got was "OK I'll tell them" no apology at all! Complete waste of £23!!!!!

Breakfast wasn't that good bacon was so dry fruit teacake was over cooked just was not worth the money told a staff member who wasn't that bothered worst breakfast I've ever had, nice location though

An excellent carvery, and an excellent atmosphere but unfortunately a very slow service, the lady couldn't cut the meat properly and ques were building up very fast. A 100% thankyou to the chef that came to the rescue to help her and whizzed us all through so we could enjoy our lovely meal. Normally our service review is a 5 ⭐️ review but unfortunately not today 😡

What a lovely place to get something to eat in a pleasant environment with gorgeous food and great prices. Don't miss out on a nice experience.

I had a very nice lamb pie, chips, peas and gravy. Then went shopping and then back to the restaurant for cream scone and a cuppa. Ps. You could feed a family on one scone, they are so big.

No main meals being served today, we were told because the chef is too busy. Last time we visited they'd run out of food. Ended up with over done food which matches the burnt scones they serve. We're regulars but won't be visiting for food again.

Good good, reasonably priced, shame it’s not open for longer!

Had a late lunch here today. Was going to have a Markham Burger, unfortunately they had sold out. They are very popular. I had a ploughman's lunch instead. Ham, 4 thick cut slices [proper Ham] 3 different cheeses, half a black pudding Scotch egg, some lovely crusty bread. There should have been some Pork Pie, however this was substituted with a piece of Sausage Roll. Some Chorizo, pickled onions, beetroot and some salad. We had been waiting a bit, not an excessive amount of time and one of the staff came to ask if we would like a free drink or piece of cake as way of apology for having to wait. They were very busy, at first we refused but he insisted we had something, he said you can take it home. I had a pasty which he brought me in a take out box. My wife had a Salmon dish that was really nice, well presented and great value. We have eaten here quite a few times and have never been disappointed. The staff are great. Highly recommended

Food ok. Tea ok. Bit expensive 😕. Problem was it was raining outside and there were numerous drips over the table area etc. Will go again but probably not when it's raining 😕

The new chef is rude Most of the food is nice but the parsnips we're hard Service is very slow and not organized. The lady with pink hair is much better and polite

We have been coming here for over a year for Sunday carvery .I do not know what as happened because everything was perfect before .we was greeted by a very rude man carving the meat as normal people que up at 12 pm .he shouts out what’s up a ya all hungry .very rude ...there is a lovely girl putting your meat on your plates unfortunately it’s already carved an been stood before service as started ,,COLD MEAT .TO GO WITH A SIGN TELLING YOU WHAT YOUR ALLOWED ON YOUR PLATE 2 CARROTS 2 PARSNIPS 🤦🏻‍♀️ ETC . ONE SPOON OF MASH .STUFFING BALLS ARE NICE SO THAT’S A BONUS .BUT YA CAN FILL YA BOOTS WITH GRAVY .MY FELLA GOT IS MEAT WAITING FOR SOMEONE IN FRONT OF HIM TO GET THERE VEGETABLES,THE BLOKE BEHIND THE CARVERY SAYS TO HIM WHAT YA STOOD WAITING FOR .RUDE,OBVIOUSLY THE PERSON IN FRONT TO MOVE ON . MEATS COLD .PARSNIPS ROCK HARD .THIS IS THE 2ND VISIT IN SPACE OF 3 WEEK WE HAVE FELT TIME TO STOP COMING HERE .REST OF THE STAFF ARE POLITE BUT HE IS VERY RUDE AN ABRUPT.WE USE TO LOVE COMING HERE .3 VISITS SINCE THIS MAN BEEN FRONT OF HOUSE WE HAVE LEFT FEELING DISAPPOINTED WITH THE SERVICE .

This is the 2nd time I have started queuing around 11.05 for breakfast which is until 11.30 to eventually get to the till at 11.25 to be told they stopped serving breakfast at 11.15!!!. Why not warn those in the slow moving queue that breakfast is finishing earlier than advertised. I ended up queuing 25 mins for a coffee which I had mostly drunk before paying.

Really nice food and drinks lovely singers here too! Highly recommend for carvery

Had breakfast on Sunday morning around 10.30 firstly poor service long wait for the worst breakfast I have ever had put in front of me I can only think the long wait was because the food was cold and an item missing poor quality for £7.49 utter rubbish,have the staff given up.

Delicious food served in a very welcoming setting, surrounded by plants. lovely, friendly staff and great value. Would highly recommend the yummy scones.

We had a long wait for food but I don't find that a problem because it's usually fresh when served. I didn't feel it necessary to have a live singer in there, we couldn't chat while waiting for our food because the singer was too loud, background music would have been adequate.

Set inside Markham Grange Garden Centre it has lovely seating arranged amongst the plants in a Greenhouse. A lovely atmosphere. Sometimes they have singers and you could imagine your in a old style tea room. The food is typical cafe but well presented. Very friendly and staff the prices reasonable

The staff we're really friendly and the seating area looks lovely. The breakfast was well cooked and very generous, it included a pot of tea which is a bonus! I will return in the future.

Lovely location. The seating area is lovely and the music is really good. The breakfast was awful. Obviously pre cooked, nothing was freshly cooked. The fried egg was rock hard, the hashbrown was crispy and greasy, the sausages were raw, the bacon was half raw and half rock solid. Tomatoes were greasy and the toast was soggy. Beans were nice ...... Not very hot and very disappointing. Would not recommend a breakfast here, which is a great shame as the location was very nice.

Lovely food at a reasonable price.

The Boiler House Resturant is situated in Markham garden centre. Styled like a retro school kind of theme offering breakfasts , sandwiches, cakes, jacket potatoes with various fillings. I had the cheese mixed in baked beans. All the food was very reasonably priced and good sized portions. Nice atmosphere quite a large place with a cosy corner with sofas and a tv. To find it you need to walk through the whole garden centre to almost to the exit doors.
