Dobbies at Braehead Glasgow.
Dobbies at Braehead Glasgow is an excellent store. Plants are super healthy and good value using my Dobbies card. The quality and choice of food in the restaurant are good also.

Perfect lunch for families
Dobbies was very clean and well laid out - lots of space between the aisles which made access with a pram very easy. The food was excellent and the staff very helpful.
Usually spend sat mornings here
Usually spend sat mornings here , coffee , catchup and some retail therapy.
David in garden centre is very knowledgeable and can answer our plant questions no bother, he actually is probably the only one with knowledge of all aspects , fabulous employee, and actually a qualified horticulturist, well done, hang on to him .
Bought a plant pot last week

Garden Cantrell well organised
Garden Cantrell well organised, plenty of staff around for any queries, 👌👌
Well what a disappointment
Well what a disappointment. The plants are uncared for, left to "die" and rot in view of customers ...the place is not managed, the whole outside garden area was a shambles and plants that had obviously been neglected for a lengthy time were all full price. What a disgrace.

Slightly less good than usual
Slightly less good than usual. Many plants fallen over and a few looked under watered.
Scones were poor , seemed quite old. Usually they are are amazing best ever quality.
Back at Christmas time we were unable to find anything relating to the real reason for Christmas. We wanted characters for a nativity scene and could only find Santa related items
