Disappointing Dobbies.
We visited Dobbies a fortnight ago with a view to having lunch only to be told they were only serving cakes & drinks, so we left.We revisited Dobbies on Easter bank holiday Monday after receiving an email from Dobbies giving interesting information about the new menu, what a disappointment Dobbies at Lelant were only serving sandwiches, jacket potatoes, soup & cakes. The staff were surly & very slow. The garden centre staff weren't much better the lady that served us at the till was very curt. Civility costs nothing.

I love the plants but think the till staff are indifferent, they never have a conversation and today I didn't even get a thankyou considering the ammount I was spending . I've been shopping over 2 days in the last week ,it's all they can do to open another till, and there have been times when they don't acknowledge your existence.
