THE CAFE AT DOBBIES GARDEN CENTRE, DUNFERMLINE

The cafe is modern, light and airy, it's also very big. There are seating areas indoors and outdoors plus a coffee and tea lounge.

It lacks any atmosphere, the plastic table and chairs and lack of distinctive style make it look like a modern airport cafe.

Interior of the cafe


Cafe meal The food is uninspiring. There are specials at �6.95 and salads at the same price. There is a range of snack meals including baguettes and paninis.

The coffee is unremarkable and the tea OK. The cakes look good as do the pancakes. Our cheese and onion panini tasted plastic, no hint of the hoped for cheese and onion taste. The bread was also on the soggy side.

HOUSE PLANTS

House plants The range of house plants on sale was particularly impressive. Not particularly well displayed but they were in good condition and averagely priced.

INDOOR SALES AREA

The indoor sales area is larger than most garden centres and stocks everything from garden accessories, furniture, barbecues, a clothing shop, cards, gifts and lots more.

Inside there is an excellent food shop with a butchers and cheese counter serving excellent, if slightly pricey, produce.

DISABLED FACILITIES
The disabled facilities are excellent. the paths are wide and generally free from obstruction. Wheelchairs are available at the front door on request and are free of charge.

TOILETS
There are full toilet facilities including those for the disabled. Baby changing facilities are also at this store.

CAR PARKING
Lots of nearby parking in the car park. The surface is level and free draining.

SUMMARY
A modern and large garden centre which is uninspiring and characterless. The range of plants is good and they have a five year guarantee.

The cafe also lacks character and serves mainly below average food.
