My partner & I the parents for a run & we went in to the mains of drum for a bite to eat we order a meal for the 4 of us we got a table,had a look at the menu & then I went up to order our meals they were pretty quick in coming with our meals we had no fault with our meals we would go back again

Spacious, well laid out, but very limited options for those with dietary needs. No fresh cakes for those needing gluten free or vegan and no vegan dishes for lunch. Service friendly but extremely slow despite the cafe being quiet.

Went there just before Christmas and had lunch in the restaurant. Had the Christmas lunch ie turkey with all the traditional trimings. It was really good and far better than some Christmas lunches I have had in some of the "better" restaurants in Aberdeen.

It has lots of gifts, clothing and Christmas stuff at the moment. Also has some nice looking garden ornaments and plants. They have a cafe/restaurant too but did not try it out. Prices are on par for a garden centre.

Nice and clean restaurant, friendly staff. Unfortunately however the lunches were not up to scratch. My wife had soup, (sweet potato and carrot). Just like coloured water and hardly any taste, bread that came with it was quite dense and heavy. I had haddock and chips. The fish was OK but the chips looked just like a plate of Tesco oven chips, peas were stone cold.I would go back for coffee but that's about it. I'd be very wary about cooked lunches.A nice clean place with friendly staff but shame about the food.

Lovely afternoon tea, can't fault the quality of the food or the service from staff. A child's version was offered for our young guest and his eyes lit up when his very own cake stand arrived. Plenty vegetarian options too.

What a lovely garden centre. Dog friendly on the ground floor, which is always a bonus. The restaurant (upstairs) looked fabulous. I only bought 2 coffees & 2 slices of a fab chocolate drip cake (to go, I might add. Remember the dog) but I think the meals would be very nice. I also spoke to someone who'd had an afternoon tea (this has to be booked) & said it was truly lovely. If you're in the area it's worth a visit. Also, there's a really nice area outside, we pulled a couple of chairs out of the car & ate our cake on the lawn.
