Lovely Garden Centre in East Lothian. We had a yummy lunch at the cafe. I’ve attached the menu to my review. Excellent freshly made options, not expensive, great coffee, lovely cakes. Very spacious restaurant, family-friendly with friendly and professional staff. You have an enclosed garden & Play Park where you can enjoy your food and drinks while the wee ones have a fantastic time. Takeaway coffee is served in compostable cups (always a plus!). We paid £34 for two (drinks, a flat white, two freshly made meals, a cake). The shop is a good size and sells local products, interior design items, a food market, a toy corner, plants, gardening tools. We enjoyed a sunny walk at Magical Fairy Trail. We’ll come back with our wee one—such a great family-friendly spot.

Good place to visit with family. Small walled garden (admission £4, kids free) offered not much to see this time of year, but I’m sure it’s lovely during the summer. Shop has lovely products and cafe excellent selection of cakes.

Impressive walled garden with lots of plants, love how they have mixed fruit and veg through flowers and trees. There's outdoor seating at the cafe / garden shop. Also a Fairy walk through the woods, great for the little ones who have their own door.

A great find in East Lothian, if you are looking for something a bit different this is the place to go. Lovely shop to suit everyone and a cafe inside. Great place if you have children as there is a fairy trail. I've lost count the number of times I've visited. There is no way admission fee into the walled garden which is payable in the shop.

What a wonderful place. Popped in for a quick coffee. Wish I'd had longer to stop for lunch and have the delicious looking gluten free red pepper frittata and salad (£10.50). Tables were well spaced for Covid and hand sanitizer provided. Staff friendly and helpful. Lovely colourful handbags and big choice of gift items for everyone including children. Plants very healthy. Plenty of parking including disabled spaces next to the entrance. I highly recommend you visit soon.
