I absolutely loved this garden! It feels like a dream home. It's delightful and incredibly cozy. The food was delicious, and their own teas were equally wonderful. We literally sat beneath the apricot tree; it felt like being in a heavenly garden. It's definitely worth a visit. Also, I bought a couple wild strawberries for my balcony garden, and I'm thrilled about it.
Lovely staff, cost atmosphere, value for money, delicious fresh food. I wish I was hungry enough to try everything! And so beautiful. My dream wedding venue

Every full moon the Secret Herb Garden offers a special full moon set dinner with wine pairing.
If you are not a vegan it is very good value. The setting is beautiful, fairy lights and candles in the old glasshouse, it is magical.
I gave this 4 out of 5 stars though because clearly the chef treats the vegan options as a necessary evil, possibly to allow a meat-eating family to bring along their sullen vegan teenager. The meat and fish courses were served with generous portions and beautifully presented. The vegan option was nicely presented but overall offered a very meager portion, perhaps 20% if the calories of the meat. While you would expect the vegan options to be lighter on caloric values, the vegan course was far too small to keep up with the wine pairing. The staff poured generous glasses of wine and offered refills, which is lovely, but on an almost empty stomach things got a little giddy.
It is a shame, that in the 21st century, that some chefs still treat vegetarian and vegan options as a side-show.
TSHG could learn from restaurants such as Dean Banks and Timberyard and how they serve non meat options. Or just from veggie places like David Bann on how to make a dinner-sized meal sans ox cheek, rather than a a small snack.
Despite this I would definitely go back. I loved the atmosphere and the setting. I would just eat before going out to dinner next time. :)
