The breakfast was ready too early

The breakfast was ready too early, we were still in the que to pay for drinks. I have mentioned this before. The dispensing of drinks has improved with 2 serving and the till at a separate station. Plants are now expensive.

Successful visit

Successful visit and found all we were looking for, good selection of Perennial plants. Had there been more check outs open then it would be 5 stars.

What an amazing discovery

What an amazing discovery, we have moved to the area recently and did not know about this amazing garden centre but it’s so much more than that. Lovely gifts, get some groceries and the restaurant and outdoor area is superb. Fantastic mini outing for the family. Will be back soon!

Alpines from Dobbies

I went to Dobbies to purchase six alpine plants, I knew which plants that I wanted and I located them all very easily as the plant stalls are all well marked and easy to find, The plants are of a high standard and reasonably priced, I couldn’t resist buying a few other plants as It’s always nice to have a few extra just in case.

Lovely staff

I have been in twice the last two days. The first day I was looking for a vegetable plant. The two guys searched all over and found the last one. So helpful. Today went in for something else. The girl serving on the till was lovely. All the staff that I meet at Gosforth Dobbies have been great.

Gosforth visit

The staff on the Sainsburys area are friendly and efficient as are the checkout staff. The cafeteria leads a lot to be desired, the food looks tired the staff are slow and miserable. This is for the Gosfoth Dobbies. I have done surveys before but nothing is improved.
