The Garden Restaurant - Ripleys Garden Centre in Ashford

As a local chap I Quite often pop into the garden restaurant with mum and my lad and sometimes on my own . I can’t recommend this place and the wonderful staff highly enough . Fantastic food oh my god the baileys cheesecake !!!!! And also a massive draw for me is the wonderful, really friendly and sometimes the bit cheeky staff ….. you know who you are !!😂…. Love the atmosphere and after you’ve eaten make sure you have a browse around the garden centre. A good quality selection of plants , gifts , cards and tools etc plus also super friendly and helpful staff . Great job guys . Steve H xx

We (a friend and I) decided on the spur of moment to visit the Garden Restaurant, having been there earlier this year. What we hadn’t envisaged was that, due to them doing a special Christmas menu from end November to 23rd December, booking was required to be seated within the warm restaurant. We were only able to get a table in the area without hearing that is usually reserved for dogs - which is still pleasant, but chilly. We had one of their ‘all day breakfasts’ same as on previous visit. The food was piping hot and delicious. 2 breakfasts + 2 hot drinks £21. Booking is a MUST in December. A great place to eat, set within a lovely garden centre.

Called in for a coffee in the very late afternoon. The coffee was freshly made. It tasted good and was served by friendly staff. My wife was even able to have a Gluten Free cake. There was a good choice of meals on the menu, which were still being served at this late afternoon hour. They looked very good. There is plenty of seating and even a dog-friendly zone. This was our first visit but it won't be our last.

Called in here today after a number of years 'passing by'. Will be calling in again as much as we can. Nice Garden centre, spotless restaurant, you could eat your food of the floor, 100% clean loos, and great friendly staff. Reasonable prices too.

My first visit and certainly not my last! This small cafe inside Ripleys Garden Centre was spot on. Offering plenty of local produce and an excellent lunch menu. Friendly, welcoming & helpful staff. Sandwiches were tasty & fresh. Coffee was made very well. My only regret is I didn’t have room for cake!
