TEA ROOM CAFE STAPELEY WATER GARDENS

The Tea Room Cafe at Stapeley restricts itself to mainly snack meals and coffee, tea and cakes. It's a basic layout with plastic seats and chairs. But clean and functional.

The sandwiches, other snacks and coffees / teas (only �1.20) offer exceptional value for money. For your money, the quality is good.


If the weather is good, the best place to sit is outside. On the side of the plants area, it is pleasantly situated.
The breakfast offer (click to enlarge) caught our eye. It offers exceptional value. Overall, this is a basic cafe offering good snack meals at rock-bottom prices.

INDOOR SALES AREA

The indoor sales area offers a comprehensive range of gardening goods. Also on offer is the normal range of gifts, cards books etc. There is a particularly good range of garden furniture.

OTHER FACILITIES

Stapeley Water Gardens specialise in two additional areas. Camping first, with a huge array of tents and camping equipment.

Second is the aquatics centre which also stock a large range of accessories.

There is a reasonable range of tropical fish. The range of pond fish is exceptional, with fish of all sizes and prices.

On the same site is the Palms Tropical Zoo. This is only open on certain days so check their website here. It wasn't open on the day we visited but it looks good fun, especially for the kids. Combine the Palms Tropical Zoo and the Stapeley Water Gardens for a whole day out. The Zoo has their own cafe for meals and drinks.

DISABLED FACILITIES
Access for wheelchairs around this extensive garden centre is generally very good. The paths are wide and the floor surfaces flat.

TOILETS
Toilets were fine, with ladies gents and disabled toilets

CAR PARKING
Lots of car parking is available right outside the garden centre.

SUMMARY
This is a large garden centre that has all the qualities needed for most gardeners. The range of plants is very good as is the quality. The water garden part is in a league of its own, exceptional.

The cafe is basic but offers good food at exceptionally good prices. We recommend this garden centre, not only for the plants but for a day out when combined with the zoo.
