The Flowerpot Cafe in Telford and Wrekin

I am writing this direct from the Flower pot cafe.. I don’t want to write this review but after 6 interventions trying to get 2 pots of tea, a tea cake and a scone correct I lost my appetite and patience. Here the list of issues 1. Having ordered our choices as above other clients were served before us after being seated after us. 2. I went to the desk and could see my tea cake sitting on the tray - on serving it was cold and the button was rock hard so could spread it and ripped the bread apart 3. It was a large tea cake but second visit for an additional butter. 4. My wife knifes for her scone was dirty from the tip to the top of the handle. 5. Having now rescued a new knife there was no sugars or sweetener provided - up again ! 6. All must be ok now ? - no there were no tea spoons provided Seriously this is extremely poor service and at £2 a pot and a bill for £9.90 I think it deserves a mention and I would like to see an acknowledgement from the owner. Mr Warner

My wife and I had Scampi chips and Peas with a side salad and it was perfect. The best we have ever tasted. Staff very nice. Great place to eat.

I’m a frequent visitor to the flower pot cafe,food is always fresh nicely presented and plenty of it,staff are lovely nothing is to much trouble always made to feel welcome,well done girls you deserve your 5* rating

Whilst the garden centre is reasonably good this cafe is not due to their staff. Quite frankly they were rude, unfriendly and very unprofessional. On a more serious note the male cook in the kitchen made lewd comments and a pass at my friends daughter, and physically touched her behind! On complaining to the manager it was denied and we asked for the cctv to be checked, but we're told it wasn't recording that day. Food was poor, service was poor, cleanliness was poor and will not be recommending to anyone!

I went to pay cash for my tea and cake and was told quite firmly that they would not accept a pound coin. Why a week before they cease to be legal tender do you refuse legal tender. Went somewhere else for lunch who took my cash shame as the garden centre was very nice.

Stopped here in dire need of a loo enroute to Wales the other day and decided to try the cafe. The best steak and kidney pie I have had in a very long time and my OH said the same about his hotpot too. Hearty portions too! Lovely staff, very friendly and great little gem. We stopped again on our return journey.

Really enjoyed our visit to the Flowerpot - only had room for a cuppa, but choice of hot meals were very popular - desserts included strawberry and plum crumble - nice to combine visiting the Flowerpot with a visit to the Garden Centre.

good friendly staff good value food £5.95 dish of the day cook will do mostly anything from a bowl of chips bacon sandwich pot of tea or a coffee set in the green house garden centre could do with a update

good food for a garden centre serve,s agood selection of food homemade cottage pie liver &onions steak pie ect

After looking at a vast range of plants you can sit down at the cafe and have some cake and coffee. I usually stop here on a Sunday for my lunch. There is a wide choice on the menu and it is really good value.

we went to the Flowerpot cafe for Sunday lunch,Ist time we did not book,just managed to get a table for 4 people excellent food & very friendly service very reasonably priced, so now we book in advance as it is always busy. that always tells ourselves food & service must be good John & Sue p.s try their fantastic salads
