I visited Dobbies Garden Centre last weekend.

I enjoyed browsing in the store while my husband went to buy some bedding plants. He was delighted with his purchases, especially as there was a promotion on. 50% off.

We then had lunch in the cafe. We enjoyed our lunch but it did seem a little pricey.
However, we found the staff, who were mostly young, to be very helpful and friendly.

Thank you.

I find your stores quite expensive compared to other similar. The toilets in the Dundee store are definitely in need of upgrading as they are in a shabby state and there's often toilet paper on the floor. Maybe I've just been unlucky and have gone before they were checked.

It was my birthday treat in Dobbies Dundee

It was my birthday treat, I was very disappointed when I had to pay for the Jam to go with my partners Scone, especially as the Scone and Jam cost less than a cake. The coffee was excellent but unfortunately this is not always the case.

Nice location with good variety of plants. There was a great selection of gardening equipment. I visited the restaurant it appeared to be understaffed with a lack of selection of food. The one big criticism I have is the distance from the restaurant to the toilets.

Sort out queue system.

Chap at additional till was bit off hand , constantly telling people that the queue is on other side of tills. Very confusing queue system. Single line queue moving to 2- 3 tills. Then they open a till at main desk and the food hall shoppers assume that's their queue from that side of store. Sort it out please . Plus point scones in cafe much improved.

Flowers for garden

Very helpful personnel regarding the the garden plants we wanted. They helped locate the flowers we were looking for etc.
The pay out desk was very efficient and helpful when we were finished shopping and a pleasure getting staff to talk with you whilst checking out.
the Managers should be proud of the helpful staff they have.
Many thanks.
