Good place to eat and drink

Spotlessly clean every where. Helpful staff. Consider doing a sandwich, toasted or a otherwise, and jacket potato without crisps and salad if the customer requests that option and charge 75p less.

Pretty well everyone there, left the crisps and salad, including us.

It is awful to see so much food go to waste, especially when so many people are struggling to buy food and food banks are busier than ever. Also, there is every indication that it will get worse.

I would appreciate it if you would consider this suggestion - if you did take it up and marketed it appropriately, I think Dobbies would get a lot of good publicity and feed back.

shortage of compost/grow bags but lots seeds and lovely meal

There. was very little. in terms of compost/grow bags etc. Maybe because it's early in the year? last year there were shortages later in the spring so I was hoping to purchase some early on.
On the other hand I got lots of seed packets. which were on sale, so wasnt a wasted trip.
Also, we had a lovely meal. and used my club coupon.
Staff are always nice and helpful.

JUST POPPED IN

Just popped in and ended up as usual buying some unexpected plants! The centre wasn't looking its best due to the season not being compatible to lots of new plants but it was ok. One criticism - toooooo early for so much Christmas stuff!!!!
