Our brand-new Meadow Croft Kitchen is officially open!

Posted: 4 Sep 2023

We have officially opened our brand-new on-site restaurant!

After outgrowing our existing catering offer, we have spent many years planning and building our new on-site restaurant. 

The new Meadow Croft Kitchen takes its inspiration from the garden; materials are natural with lots of light and greenery throughout. Fabrics are soft and welcoming shades of green and furniture is hand-crafted in the UK from ethically sourced wood. 

It combines a more relaxed eating experience in the main restaurant with an offering in our ‘cosy coffee and cake lounge’. It also has 2 outdoor seating areas for visitors to experience. 

‘‘We are so excited after many years in the planning to finally have our brand-new Meadow Croft Kitchen open for business. Our vision is finally reality and it looks amazing. We have a fantastic team and a lovely new menu, all waiting to greet our customers. Thank you to all who have helped make this project happen and to all our customers who have waited patiently for our new restaurant. We look forward to serving you soon.” – Lisa Smith, Director.

The garden centre now also has a 50-seat function room with private terrace which is available for private hire; meetings, baby showers, wakes and more. 

Now the restaurant has launched, we will be utilising the old restaurant space to expand our retail area and make way for new and exciting products. 

We look forward to welcoming you to the brand-new Meadow Croft Kitchen soon.
