This is a totally independent GardenAction opinion of Timmerman's Garden Centre in the Nottingham area. Click any picture to enlarge it.
PLANTS AREA
The outside plants area stocks a reasonable range of plants and shrubs for a garden centre of this size. They stock a very comprehensive range of fruit and ornamental trees.
The plants area is part covered and had signs which were clear and informative. It lacked any inspiration though to encourage customers to buy more.
INDOOR SALES AREA
CAFE
The cafe is simply an open division of the main indoor sales area. The layout and decor is uninspiring with very dirty windows. Although the menu advertises main meal specials, none were available when we visited. This is really a coffee (�1.45) shop with snack foods such as pre-prepared toasties (around �2.50), paninis (around �4) and hot potatoes (�3 to �4). There was a good range of breakfast meals.
The prices were cheap but this was reflected in the lack of quality of the basic ingredients. The presentation however, was good and hot food was served to your table. The staff were helpful and doing their best with poor basic ingredients and lacklustre surroundings.
