“As a family tradition we go out for breakfast on the morning of a holiday. We tried this cafe as the reviews were very positive and my wife had heard about it through a work colleague. The staff were very welcoming. There were a few regulars in who made the place seem very community focussed, more friends than customers. The food was really good freshly prepped after we ordered. When I mentioned where we going on holiday the lady who served us explained she was from that same area originally and advised us of things to look out for. Can't fault it. We will visit again definitely.”

“Love this cafe used to go to their cafe in Stockport and now drive 5 miles every Saturday food is great and the most reasonably priced around and we love the coffee. Staff are great”

“Today was my first time going. It is a great day out for the family. All I paid was for parking witch a flat fee for the day. The park was massive and catered for all ages. The facilities were really good, also the cafe was average priced witch was really good n made a decent coffee.”

“Gorgeous park with a little animal area, really good sized play park for children with two separate areas for different ages. The food is gorgeous in the stables cafe area too. Nice visit.”

“Friendly and welcoming place with good quality food and drinks for a good price. Would definitely recommend.”

“Do not think does food. Fabulous pub all the same”

“Excellent illuminated displays throughout the gardens, with well layed path ways. Colour & spectacular imagery in all directions. Definitely well worth a visit”

“Excellent Food & Service. The food was excellent! The menu is very good and caters for everyone. Highly recommend the cheese and onion pie and the BBQ beef brisket sandwich. The staff are all very helpful and friendly. Excellent service!”

“A great little café situated between Vernon and Woodbank parks. The staff are very friendly. Dogs and their owners are welcome. Indoor and outdoor seating. Free water for four-legged animals. Parking nearby.”

“Absolutely the best place around!! The people are soo nice and the food is always so delicious and super cheap!! full breakfast for 5.50! U cant get better than that. I always come here after the gym to have my food and I absolutely love it.”

“Really good Chinese with very tasty dishes and good service. They have a separate bar and some high tables for people who want to eat small plates. Free parking behind the restaurant. Recommended.”

“The food is sensational I ordered the king prawn scampi chips and mushy peas extremely fresh and full of flavour the food was delightful and the staff were great too. Very impressed thanks. All the food was good but these chips were something else kudos to the chef”

“Great friendly pub x wish it was my local”

“Great little local pub in Middleton Junction. JW Lees beers on offer, as well as San Miguel. Nice spaciouw beer garden to the rear of the pub.”

“Friendly staff, brilliant service. Salt-of-the-earth people with a friendly, old-school pub vibe. A brilliant spot.”

“The pizza at Gardeners Arms, Greene King is absolutely delicious! The crust is perfectly crispy, the sauce is flavorful, and the toppings are fresh and plentiful. Whether you prefer classic combinations like pepperoni or something more adventurous like BBQ chicken, they have something for everyone. Plus, their selection of ice-cold beer complements the pizza perfectly, making it the ideal spot for a casual meal or a night out with friends. The atmosphere is welcoming and relaxed, and the service is always friendly. And don't forget why pay Manchester prices.”

“We used this venue as a campervan stopover. Which was mostly OK. When we arrived to pitch up the parking area was pretty well at capacity due to a Bowls match, tis cleared after about 2 hours or so and we were able to pitch up. As this was free we decided to meet with my sister and partner and my son. The 5 of us had a pleasant meal in the pub which we enjoyed. I would suggest that the proprietors consider putting an outside drinking water tap and marked bins for waste recycling. I have no doubt that we shall be visiting again.”

“Dean was amazing explained the menu. My daughter loved the fruit pancakes. Will be back.”

“Standard National Trust cafe. Yummy cakes and drinks :)”

“Lovely location. Nice carrot cake and a pot of tea for £4.25. Friendly service.”

“We had a fantastic time at bottomless brunch! The drink and food selection was excellent — plenty of delicious options to choose from. The setting itself is lovely, relaxed, and perfect for a weekend treat. Our server, Jasmine, was absolutely brilliant — so attentive, friendly, and made sure we were well looked after from start to finish. We honestly couldn’t fault a single thing. Highly recommended!”
