Wellington's Cafe & Bistro

Just eaten the most tasteless, small quiche for £ 8.95. The quiche was really dry.

I use this cafe regularly either for coffee or a meal. Well priced and usually very well cooked food. Great for small business meets too. Then I spend a fortune in the garden centre despite my best efforts

Nice place to have a snack, clean and bright, lots of tables. Full English breakfast looked great, but was cold - a big disappointment. Even the beans in their own ramekin were cold. Food needed proper heating, and serving on warmed plates to stay hot to the table! But staff were very efficient and pleasant.

Nice people

Coffee good quality! Had elevenses!! Kid-friendliness: Creche!!! Nappy changing area Wheelchair accessibility: Ramps, plus disabled loos

Sadly - not a great experience, today. Our visit was to start off with breakfast, and then on to shopping at the Garden Centre. We arrived and told to pick a table, which we did [ one that was nicely decorated with Christmas decorations]. We informed the server of our table number and ordered our meals. Lovely breakfast. During our meal, a staff member came to our table and - curtly - told us we 'had to' move to another table [ mid-meal!] as our table was set for a Christmas meal and we shouldn't have been sitting there! She then walked away, leaving us quite astounded. We decided to finish our meal, before we moved our drinks to another adjacent table. We sat at the next table for another 15 min+ -, to note that the table we had vacated was stripped & reset - but no one was allocated to use it all the while we were sitting on the next table. We could have easily completed our meal before the table was required for the next customers. Surely, when we informed the server initially of our table selection, we should/could have been informed then, that the table we selected, was reserved for the festive occasion? Or maybe, for the future - a 'reserved sign' is put on to tables that are allocated for special reasons. [ there were many tables all with decorations on them ] And - may I suggest that your staff training includes 'simple courtesy to customers' - explaining why and with a 'please' & a smile, when dealing with customers. Maybe it was just that one staff member, who dealt with us who was 'poor', however left us with a bad experience. We wouldn't have minded if we were asked if we'd mind moving table; being 'told' that we had to - didn't go down well.

2nd visit. Sconetastic! Plenty of cream and jam with cream tea. Also indulged in slice of caramelised cake, sooo yummy. Great coffee.

Lady making teas was in a right strop. Had a baguette that wasn't cooked properly. Needless to say we won't be visiting again.
