Viaduct Nurseries in South Gloucestershire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Love this place. Great food and very amenable staff.

Their coffee and cake for £5 special was great value, the red velvet cake was huge and very rich but they put the rest in a box to take home, thanks peeps

Thank you everyone @ viaduct cafe the afternoon tea was lovely . Made our group feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble . Would definitely recommend the afternoon tea .

Was worth the visit. Grand daughter enjoyed it as well. Not many people in there when we visited So not sure what kind of atmosphere there would normally be there.

A Cafe ... local and unrushed ..

A lovely place. The owners are very friendly and welcoming and the food was great, we had two ploughman’s and a cottage pie which were all lovely. Highly recommended.

Had a ploughman's lunch today, this ploughman's lunch was excellent, and the service brilliant and very friendly. Plenty of parking. I would definitely recommend this cafe.

Visited Viaduct cafe for lunch today, we had two ploughman's lunches. These ploughman lunches were excellent, the contents were of a high quality and so very enjoyable. The service was friendly and respectful, we were treated like friends. We will definitely visit Viaduct cafe again soon. Thanks for a great experience Viaduct cafe.

Lovely place the staff are always friendly and helpful and the food was really nice a lovely little bolt hole brilliant find thank you

Food was fantastic and the service was second to none the lady who served us was fantastic

I'm only giving 2 stars because the first time my partner and I visited the meals and service was OK. Since then we have returned on 2 other occasions and both the service and food had fallen each time. The last visit will be just that. A simple order of a sandwich, 2 coffees and a cake took 40 mins, then they got the order wrong and brought each item separately. My partners sandwich arrived after 15 mins, coffee only came 10 mins later after chasing it up myself. Finally cake came 20 mins later after the sandwich had been eaten, drinks drunk. Before some loyalist say it must have been busy or short staffed, bull!. It had only 3 other customers during our stay, 2 working the kitchen and one on the till. Had thought we found a gem but it turned out to be fools gold. PS. Although they have newly installed central heating it is never on, unless its summer bring a hat & coat, its a cold place to be while waiting a long time for your food.

The food was very very nice and staff very pleasant will definitely be going back there are also other fantastic shops on site . DEFINITELY WORTH A VISIT

My recent visit to The Viaduct Deli left an indelible impression, prompting me to share a well-deserved review. From the moment we walked in, we were met with genuine warmth and smiles from the attentive staff. The thoughtful inclusion of toys for children, coupled with a charming garden and breathtaking views, created an inviting atmosphere for patrons of all ages. As for the culinary offerings, they surpassed all expectations. Each dish was prepared with care and attention to detail, resulting in a dining experience that was nothing short of delightful. I found myself thoroughly enjoying every aspect of my stop, from the ambiance to the delectable fare. In essence, The Viaduct Deli offers more than just exceptional food; it provides a welcoming haven where hospitality and quality converge seamlessly. It's a testament to the dedication of the staff and the commitment to excellence that permeates every aspect of the establishment. Without a doubt, I wholeheartedly recommend this charming deli to anyone in search of a memorable dining experience.

The lady serving us had the most filthy clothes on ever - just covered in stains and mess. I don’t know how you can work in the food industry and think this is ok? The tables around us were left with leftovers plates etc for a good 20 mins. So off - putting. Even when they cleaned our table - there were used tissues on the seat. People next to us asked for their table to be cleaned . Plenty of staff , why isn’t this a priority? The actual lunch was nice but we were so put off by the mess and dirty clothes I wouldn’t return. It’s such an easy fix - the food is nice - just clean up a bit and it will be so much better .

Fantastic ploughman's lunch really delicious cheese and ham from the Viaduct Deli. Throughly recommend.

Great place to get a nice tradition English Breakfast! And now open on Tuesdays!

Amazing Food & Super Friendly service Reading the not-so-good reviews I can only assume these people are “Karens” who don’t get out much and need to get a life (or stay home without a life and keep quiet!) 😝 The cafe is super warm and inviting and the food is SPOT on. Dog friendly too What’s not to like If you’ve got an extra 5 minutes pop into the deli for some amazing treats, stuff I’ve never seen before (and I’ve been around 😀) and the stuff I have is cheaper than I’ve seen around so win/win!! Grace & Deb (& co) are doing an outstanding job Don’t take my word for it, go see for yourself! You won’t be disappointed

Longer wait for breakfast but was worth it

lovely food, great cakes very friendly welcoming staff. lovely outdoor seating and lovely green area with parking! would recommend

Great place to have breakfast food cooked fresh and you can taste it. Service is friendly nothing to much trouble. Go there often as simply the nicest food in the area. Value for money is also excellent.

A fantastic venue nice people great place for coffee breakfast or lunch a hidden gem

Great all day breakfast at the Cafe also a friendly deli with many favourite condiments and a couple of other small shops. Good if you need a sign for your gate.

Really good breakfast and the deli and other shops are ideal for gifts. Definitely will be a regular customer. Loads of parking and set in nice grounds

Surprising large cafe with indoor and outdoor seating. I only had coffee and cake, but they were both excellent

We popped in for lunch as our normal venues were closed. There was plenty of parking and lots of seating indoors. The menu had standard light lunch options and prices were reasonable. It was a bit cheap and cheerful but the portion sizes were decent and the food edible, if uninspired. Service was efficient but unengaging.

The food was great, staff very friendly.

My picture is a child's meal, however I had an adult fish, rustic chips and peas, which was lovely. A bonus is a Deli shop next to the cafe.

Very nice food and friendly service. Best in the area I think

An unplanned visit but a lovely cafe. Staff really friendly and welcoming. Food good and quick service, will definitely go again. A hidden gem!

Very nice lunch, nice location and facilities.

First time at this venue today 12/05/2023. Decided to have 2 large all day breakfasts £11.45 each and ordered at 12.30pm and sat outside. After 30 minutes we asked how much longer and told its on its way. 10 more minutes wait the food arrived. It was luke warm at best with some items cold, only 1 piece of black pudding, which was served after the food had arrived. Should have been 2 black pudding,and 1 piece of bacon on 1 plate, again should have been 2. There was no apology for the delay, staff more interested in serving pre booked customers. Very disappointed and poor customer service although the food was a good quality. Not worth the long wait for cold and missing items.

Great breakfast, dog friendly and very welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended

Tasty hot breakfast. Real coffee. Price of breakfast included coffee and toast.

Fantastic Breakfast, brilliant prices. Proper sausages and black pudding. Hash browns were delicious. Will definately be coming again.

Best breakfast around, proper sausages, great black pudding. Bit of a wait but completely worth it, would 100% recommend.

It's a lovely hidden oasis. The café serves good food and the staff are very friendly. The breakfast they served me was delicious. Thank you

Just had food at the viaduct cafe! Absolutely gorgeous, actual homemade chips! Great experience from start to finish. Lovely friendly staff nothing is too much trouble. Highly recommend x

Good for a fry up and for families. Coffee poor. Need to invest in proper machine or use cafetières. Use of of better quality coffee would be pay dividends.

Lovely Cafe Food is good and very friendly staff

Really enjoy my visits to the cafe. Good food, good price

Stopped by for one tea and one black coffee, I ordered two pieces of toast, one with jam, my order came to £11 after deducting the price of the drinks it worked out that I paid £3.25 for each piece of toast the bread wasn’t toasted properly and the portions of butter and jam were very small, this is absolutely extortionate especially with the cost of living being so expensive at the moment, I could have got it cheaper at the Ritz hotel. Avoid !!!!!!!

Nice café just off the road from ringroad to Coalpit Heath. Had a breakfast that was not greasy at all. A nice surprise! They do standard, large and extra large brekkies. Lunches are also available. Inside and outside seating with toilets available. Fast, friendly service and parking.

Went here for lunch today, our 3rd visit. Friendly staff, fantastic food, great prices. A real gem.

Two of us visited just before lunchtime, we received a friendly welcome from staff. The cafe was tidy and all the tables were clean (Frome Valley Farm shop take note!). We ordered a regular breakfast and ham, egg and chips. All food was cooked and presented beautifully and very good quality. There was a good selection of food available including a breakfast and lunch menu as well as some specials. It was my first visit to the cafe however I’ve been there before to the (also excellent) florist next door. I was impressed by how much the area has been improved by the owners, clearly a lot of time and money has been spent.

What's not to love? Every once in a while, one happens upon an absolute gem of a place to sit down and eat. The Viaduct Cafe is no exception to this general rule - what an outstanding experience my friend and I had today. There are menu's for breakfast, lunch/afternoon and cream teas/afternoon teas are also available (please allow a minimum of 12 hours notice when booking cream/afternoon tea). We both decided on the tuna mayonnaise toastie with chips (you can have crisps instead if you wish) and a generous garnish of fresh salad and excellent homemade coleslaw. We were absolutely delighted with the quality and pesentation of our impromptu lunch; the bread was beautifully fresh and lightly toasted, the filling of tuna mayonaise was generous with lots of good-quality tuna which wasn't drowned in mayonnaise as is often found in other establishments as a cost-reducing measure. The salad was fresh and crisp and the chips were freshly cooked. The coleslaw here is something else - incredibly creamy, crunchy, satisfyingly tasty and well-seasoned. The tea was very nice too, especially for those of us who enjoy a fuller-flavoured tea, Deb left the teabags in our cups so that we could have it as strong as we liked which we appreciated. There is ample offstreet parking right outside the premises, with disabled spaces immediately next to the wheelchair-accessible entrance. There is a pleasant outdoor area with seating, covering and what I assume is a bar-type area - this will be superb for warmer days. One could happily sit and watch the young deer eating the apples fallen from any one of several apple trees in the wooded area opposite! This establishment is spotlessly clean, elegantly decorated and well-presented, and the staff are wonderful. I met Deb today who was working incredibly hard to look after diners as well as a multitude of other tasks - she's very industrious and not fazed by multitasking at speed! Deb is also incredibly pleasant, talkative and nothing is too much trouble. Overall, this was one of those truly exceptional experiences and I'll be visiting on a weekly basis from now on. As a side note they also sell gift cards - the ideal gift for someone who already has everything! They also have a breakfast challenge - The Victory Breakfast - for those with enormous appetites matching an enormous stomach capacity!! Thank you to Deb and gang, looking forward to stopping in again next Thursday!

My son has started his own business at Viaduct Nursery making be spoke furniture SJR bespoke storage ltd Very nice clean estate. Grace in the cafe very friendly lovely clean hot food always with a smile

Well priced, nice food and friendly staff.

We decided to revisit the Viaduct Cafe after hearing it had re-opened but sadly we were very disappointed both with the service and the food. This is early days for the new team so I hope things will improve. We ordered 3 large breakfast and one regular. We waited an awful long time for the food to come and discovered our order had been given to another table. They retook our order ( still got it confused) and had to re cook it. When it was served they delivered the 3 large breakfast but we had to wait for the Regular. The food wasn’t very good either. The large breakfast (£11.45) had two Eggs which were over done, sausages over done and very small. Bacon undercooked. Small portion of fresh mushrooms and some nice fresh grilled cherry tomatoes. Two Plain and tasteless slices of Black pudding ( though one serving only had one slice) and two hash browns that were light and crispy. Toast ( choice of white or brown) served piled on top of the breakfast rather than separately but some of us got butter and some didn’t . Plus a pot of Baked Beans. The Regular was exactly the same, but one slice of everything.(£8.95). We waited a long time for drinks and had to ask several times before they arrived.(Tea £1.20 a cup). The sauce was in sachets up at the counter, you have to help yourselves but there was nowhere to put the empty containers and the paper from the sugar, which blew about on the table. The environment is bright and clean and the seating, tables and dining area is welcoming. There is also seating outside and on a sunny day this seemed popular. This was a rather expensive breakfast which didn’t live up to expectations. Staff shortages are clearly an issue in catering at present but if you are opening a new venture, you have to get this right. I wish them well and hope our experience was a one off. Sadly we won’t be revisiting in the near future

Visited last weekend on recommendation from a friend but to be honest, couldnt work out why they would say it's special when it's not. Friendly staff, pile it high fry up and nasty coffee. The drive down is full of pot holes and to be honest, I was glad to drive back up and leave., Sorry but although others seemed quite content this place is just not for me.

Very nice grand kids b loved it

Beautiful flowers at a very reasonable price.

Nice little place, had a great time at the Meerkat experience.

Good food made on premises, reasonably priced. Love their home made soups. Need to try breakfast🍳☕

Ok for a good fry-up but road surfaces severely pot-holed more suited to off roaders than a family car.

Great place to bring kids of all ages

We went for a party so little ones loved the animals. I loved the cafe and coffee. Think I'll be going here again. Friendly staff.

My wife and I had a very good roast at the Viaduct Nurseries my wife had beef and I opted for turkey plenty of meat and more than enough fresh veg.Fast efficient service and piping hot.They have only recently started doing roasts and we can highly recommend the food here,very reasonably priced at £7.95.we will definitely return.

Great morning handling snakes for a 4th birthday. Highly recommended!

Very good place to go for a few hour's the food is Great. There's a few Animals to see & Touch . The grand son enjoyed himself & eat me out of house and Home.

Average breakfast in the cafe, small proportions, no frills, cold toast. It does what is says on the box. Not the best value

Florist is great friendly service wonderful flowers

Nice food and friendly staff. kids can run around outside and see animals.

Really busy, popular, good looks amazing

An opportune visit to an almost secret Cafe was so refreshing and here i met Suzie and Natasha serving every choice of breakfast combination available . I opted for large Breakfast and in a very timely manner delivered to my seat was a large Coffee with a glass of cold water and a full English with Butter and toast.This cafe is Newly refurbished very stylish very quaint and superbly clean . Very polite service I could not fault it all bar the wi-fi password painted on the wall is incorrect but who cares as it has 4g service anyway. Not to be missed for breakfast or lunch with take away .

Stopped here for a hot drink and a quick look around at the request of a friend who arranged to meet me here. To put it bluntly this place gives the first impression of being shambolic and run by a group of probably well intentioned but very unequipped people with little ability to care for a random group of “ rescued” creatures in anything resembling basic standards of care. I left concerned for the conditions the random group of animals were being kept in ( Rheas in a pen much too small, tortoise in inadequate pens, random birds in dark dingy aviaries- to name a few). Staff / volunteers seemed friendly enough.The cafe seems to double up as a meeting point for local builders and tradespeople, so if you like drinking lukewarm coffee in a place where people shout conversation across tables it’s the place for you- if you are looking for a good meeting and catch up place ,I would suggest avoiding it! . Hot drink was passable.

We used to love coming here for a cooked breakfast but this was lukewarm which is the worst thing you can do to eggs etc. They've also stopped doing black pudding which was the main attraction for us. Need to find a new place for our treat. Shame.

Went there for a look round didn't take long if I Ann honest. Good place to have a cuppa and a chat & for a light bite .

Such a brilliant place to go, relaxed & fun. Some awesome animals & the cafe is yummy! Highly recommend it.

I urge you to go here it's amazing

A wonderful place to visit - these guys really know their stuff and care for the animals brought to them

A great experience for the children. Knowledgeable and caring staff of volunteers look after the variety of animals. The marmosets were a particular highlight.

Lovely little place for rescued small animals. Small place but free entry. Family run place, out of their own pockets. Has a play park. Good food from the cafe there.

Nice breakfast for a reasonable price. Really good for kids if weathers good as theres animals outside and a little park at the back. Lovely place 😊

Great food and pleasant staff , good for lunches and breakfast

The Viaduct Sanctuary & Petting Zoo is excellent! Very informative and great for children and adults to interact with snakes, dragons, millipedes and tortoise in a safe way and relaxed environment.

Esta fue mi primera visita ya que el café ha cambiado de manos y siento decir que no es tan bueno como lo era. El café era débil que no había leche de soja la comida es ahora una tarifa muy básico, más café transporte... probé el desayuno, que estaba hecha con ingredientes muy regular. Me temo que hay muchos cafés superior a un par de millas de distancia y ninguno de ellos podría ofrecer una oferta muy superior.

Visited this nursery when experiencing a reptile encounter. The nursery looked a little neglected in places and a good tidy up would help. We ate in the restaurant and the meals were reasonably priced and quite tasty. The service was friendly and efficient.

Sólo desayunamos y tocino y champiñones eran buenas. Sin embargo, el hash browns eran malos y no recalentados, que caliente. La morcilla negra parecía que había sido preparado la semana pasada y ha sido bajo la parrilla desde entonces. Si vas a hacer parte de buena, que sea buena gente! No volvería.

Eat here on Saturday mornings for a clean , non expensive , excellently cooked breakfast staff polite coffee got what more could anyone ask for

We had a talk and petting experience at the weekend at the animal rescue which our girls loved, Sara and Adrian are very knowledgeable. We also ate the cafe which had very nice food. Plants are very reasonable priced. I will be going back in future.

spent a great 2hrs here with friends sat in the sun, good food and freindly atmosphere. Service was quick and food excellent omlette very nice and beans on toast would have kept the angry hoards happy.

Compré un vale Groupon para esta empresa, quería llevar a mi nieta y un pequeño amigo fuera en un par de horas, y pensamos que nos encantan los playbus. En general me pareció el lugar seriamente en los estándares para los niños pequeños. Los juguetes...

Mi familia me llevó por un brunch de cumpleaños ayer. Mi hija y pagado por el orden, que incluía huevos doble en tostadas, pero con un trozo de bacon - cuando le pregunté si eso era en todos ellos ella contestó afirmativamente. Tuvimos que esperar...

Knowing the viaduct well and having the kids party there I bought a groupon voucher for playbus and kids meal for 2 for a fiver, the kids had 30 mins on the bus and I had 30 mins of peace I then ordered their food along with a large breakfast for moi which was fantastic, the food was fresh and hot the kids had a great time playing on the bus, in the small playground and looking at the animals - phone prior to ensure no parties, I went in the school holidays and couldn't fault it especially as so local so have bought another voucher too!!

I love going to the Viaduct Nurseries, the café is severs very nice home cooked food, with the café being busy at the weekends you have to wait for your food the only reason Is that it is cooked fresh and when you get the food it is piping hot while you wait you can feed there goats and donkeys that they have.

Bought a Groupon voucher to take my grandchildren to the Play bus as their meal was included in the voucher I ordered their meal in the restaurant and was advanced used it would be ready at 12.45 pm. This was not the case and we waited for quite a while for my grandchildrens food. We also ordered food for my husband and I. We waited an hour before our food arrived not before I had asked three times how much longer our food was going to be. No apoligy and one of the young men working at the cafe kept making excuses about the fact there was only two chefs on duty. The only concession I received for my trouble was two cup cakes as an apology. On a good note I could not find any fault with the food but they need more staff to serve and clear the tables and maybe another cheff!!

My wife recently came here during a weekday with our 2yo and was suitably impressed with the venue and food. We returned on a Saturday afternoon for lunch with our parents and the food was certainly just as good. Unfortunately there was a kids party on at the time so they were a little slower serving (which I can accept) and the "Saturday job" service was a little too evident for our liking. We've since fed this back to the owners and hope to return again soon to (hopefully) prove that this was a one-off.

Lovely place to visit for adults and even better for children. Good home cooked food at reasonable prices. A range of animals to see and a small climbing frame with ride on toys -all for free!! Also a playbus at a small cost. A brilliant and cheap place to entertain children for a few hours. The staff are very lovely and friendly :) love coming here with my friends and children.

Excellent healthy food served by very friendly staff. Play bus, animals great for the kids. Wear your wellies

Visited here recently with a disabled friend and he absolutely loved it. Very friendly staff and if you want a breakfast this is the place to come. Very plentiful and well cooked. Loads for kids to do also with animals out side and a large red playbus. Recomended

good visit with the kids, had a cooked breakfast witch was great, nice portions . friendly place, would go again.

Stopped for brunch with my 7 yr old. Lovely egg sandwich £2.50, Pot of tea. Friendly efficient service. Loved the animals are great to have a separate eating area for families with little ones and toys to occupy them. All very clean and tidy.

Fun and friendly great place for young children, see the animals and friendly staff. Good food and teas and coffees.

We went to Viaduct Nurseries last year with our granddaughter for her to visit Santa. While we were there we had hot drinks in the cafe and it was very friendly and homely and the prices were very reasonable. The Santa's grotto was very well done and our granddaughter enjoyed seeing Santa. A lot of effort has gone into making this an enjoyable venue for having a coffee or lunch and buying some plants.

This is a nursery & cafe with animals to look at (donkeys, goats, pigs, ducks, goats,rabbits, and more) and a children's play area. It's not overly commercial, and very relaxed. The food doesn't pretend to be something its not, just good value cafe / pub style of food, with a good selection of homemade options. It's a great place to spend a couple hours on a sunny afternoon, especially with small kids.

Afternoon tea with the family. Well presented tasty and sufficient quantity. Would recommend for a tea stop and a cake.

A good range of basic lunch menu, freshly cooked at a reasonable price, with good service. We enjoyed looking at the animals afterwards, good for families.

recently went for lunch,beautiful home cooked food and to die for homemade cakes,really good value too,whats more theres a free play area for my children,along with a trampoline which both my boys loved and they have animals too so much more of a day out really - the kids loved the donkeys and theres also a new addition there too - a florist and gift shop [the handmade store] which has some beautiful gift ideas and the flowers i purchased were gorgeous too.
