Visited April 2006

 
Obviously you go to Choice Plants for their excellent selection of  plants, pots and anything gardening (they make up fabulous hanging baskets with a great watering system) but whilst there do stop for a snack in Poppies.  The large Cafe is a recent addition to the Choice Plants empire and well worth a visit even if you don't need any plants! 
 
We visited on Easter Monday and can thoroughly recommend Poppies.  Our choices were a heated panini with brie and bacon, a jacket potato with brie and bacon and a baguette with brie and apple; all served with a lovely salad and very reasonably priced.  Their varied choice of home made cakes looked scrumptious but on this occasion we resisted, we were too full!  Their Fair Trade coffee is excellent especially as you can request it either normal or strong strength and you can have your own cafetiere.  No alcohol but plenty of choices of soft drinks, teas and hot chocolate.  Very friendly staff. 
 
Sorry no photos of the food as we did not have the camera with us but have now taken some photos of my gardening purchases (above, a Silver Fan Palm in it's very smart blue pot & left, the two gorgeous blue bottles), they were delivered safely and free of charge too !

The higher the "Yummy" factor, the better the food & service.  The higher the number of £ signs the more expensive.  ( Roughly one £ sign = £5 per head )
