Outside, there are bedding & pot plants, fruit trees, herbs, planters & pots galore. Inside ,there are all the tools you would need to tend to your garden, whether it's a new trowl or spade you're looking for or some cute signs to label up your seedlings. The friendly, knowledgeable staff are on hand to help & advise should you require.
Inside the shop we also had a good look around all the lovely home accessories and gifts they had on offer, it was a treasure trove of lovely items by the make of Gisela Graham plus many other gorgeously made items. They had a beautiful display of autumn and Christmas items in stock. There was plenty of choice of house plants, too, ranging from big palms to the cutest cactuses.
Walking through the shop, you will soon get to the Cafe at Plumleys. This cafe has cosy indoor seating with a real log fire set in the middle. On warmer days, you can sit outside, which is in a large poly tunnel, so still protected from the rain.
It has a great menu, offering lots of choices. Including breakfasts, sandwiches & toasties but not just your standard fillings, I spotted a chicken, bacon & egg club! Plus their ever popular burgers and lovely warming meals like Bourguignon Pie and loaded fries.
My mum ordered their quiche, which was salmon and dill, served with roasted new potatoes and creamed leeks. And on a day when it was cold and wet outside, this meal was seriously tasty comfort food.
I went for Plumleys Welsh Rarebit. Granary toast loaded with Black Sheep Ale rarebit sauce topped with streaky bacon.
The cake counter was rather tempying with treacle tarts, cheesecake & slices of school chocolate crunch.
The Cafe at Plumleys was in the list of top ten cafés and coffee shops in Mid Cheshire in the Northwich Guardian in August & I can totally tell why.
Obviously, I will be heading back soon, just so i can try out another yummy lunch from their menu.
