Notcutts Ashton Park - Tameside

Disappointing visit today. Called with my Niece for the Afternoon Delight which has sadly been replaced with something else Summer something or other. This was supposedly finger sandwiches, sausage roll and strawberry tart. It took over 30 minutes to receive our food and it wasn 't because they were overrun with customers at that time. When it eventually arrived mine was wrong as they supplied cheese and pickle sandwich instead of the ham ordered and had to be replaced, not a finger sandwich in sight it was two slices of bread slapped together and cut diagonally. When ordering we didn 't get asked if we wanted white or brown bread and I forgot to ask for brown. The strawberry tart looked like it had been literally thrown together using the odd bits of strawberry and looked absolutely nothing like the one shown on the promotional material. Such a shame as we have previously visited and enjoyed the food but not today.

Good quality food friendly service, will probably eat here again. Long queue on Easter weekend. Kids menu there was a variety of food

Had the breakfast offer and though it wasn't the cheapest you can get, the quality and quantity were excellent. 2 rashers of back bacon, 2 eggs, two hash browns, sausage and tomato, with excellent very tasty beans. A slice of toast included would have been nice but overall, this was a real treat, freshly made, so everything nice and hot. Will definitely visit again (with friends!

We went to nocutts today which is a lovely little garden centre, unfortunately we decided to eat in the cafe.....Myself and my mum both had the Croque monsieur...the bacon was cold the bread hadn't even been toasted so the cheese sauce had just soaked into the bread making it soggy and inedible! Ridiculous for £8.95! My son had the chicken goujons and chips and when it came the batter was pale almost WHITE which I thought was odd and when I cut into the chicken it was cold! The total of this including drinks cost £30 which is absolutely absurd. I'm annoyed at myself for not asking for a refund, we didn't even eat a quarter of the food before leaving it was disgusting. Please save your money and do not bother, we could have gone somewhere else and spent the same amount and had a lovely brunch! We definitely won't be visiting the cafe again.

Very clean (although there was a nasty smell near the toilets) and well laid out with lots to see although the prices are very high (even on their sale rails). The overheads for a place like this must be massive so that may go some way to contributing to the cost but it is still an expensive place. Went into the cafe for lunch and, like others, got a mixed experience. Slow service (although the staff were apologetic), average food and high prices. An extra till and more staff would certainly help.
