Gardener's Cottage Café — Restaurant in London

The Gardeners Cottage is like finding your magical happy place. It is situated in a beautiful setting within Valentine’s Park. The proprietor Charlie greets his customers with a smile and his staff are always polite and friendly. The cafe is always spotless and the coffee, lunch or tea are always well displayed and served. We enjoy delicious cakes, sandwiches, jacket potatoes etc etc. and even a cream tea there! All dogs are very welcome and even receive a treat! We always look forward to our regular walk in the park with a visit to our favourite...

We are going for a walk to Valentines park everyday and buying an ice cream for our two children. Its such a hassle to buy an ice cream. You need to say which ice cream you need at the till, then you need to repeat it again to a person who served the ice cream, then he/she asks you again which one you need... Very disorganised. Makes me feel each time very AWKWARD. Staff never smile. Outside area very nice and spacious. But inside very narrow and small. Ice cream services need to be improved ASAP. If i could i would rate this cafe...

Previously gave 2 stars as never been the best laid cafes, in fact it is really Ill thought out, the entrance doors are rubbish and if you get a self centred woman in their moaning it is "cold" cos the doors are open so you can get through with a tray without knocking it out your hand asking to close it instead of moving to another table inside away from the doorway, place has lost any charm, poor and expensive choice of food, the cafe in hainault forest has a better selection on offer and that isn't much bigger. Avoid...
