I'm officially getting old as I bought some plants at the garden centre today and I loved the whole experience. A big thank you to the staff at Alexandra Place Garden Centre for not making me feel stupid, I can't wait to get in the garden armed with the advise you gave me. Lovely home-made cup cakes in the cafe too :) Many thanks.
So many plants of all shapes and sizes albeit a little pricey but it's to be expected considering the convenient location. We found some beautiful plants for our planters at home. It wasn't easy deciding as there is a lot of variety here. At the very least you'll learn something new about plants . It's nice that they have a cafe if you need to sit down and relax for a moment. Lots more inside as well, we didn't even have a chance to take a look at the house plants . Well worth a visit if you're in the area
Bigger than you would imagine, and variety is great. Garden furniture and grills are sold here, too. The garden furniture shop assistant was a black cat who goes out of the door to take a break and then goes back to the shop through the staff door. The garden cafe has nice roof top tables with parasols. It's a really nice place to visit. The parking spaces are quite tight, so you may struggle if you come in a big car.
Great garden centre, huge selection of outdoor plants and pots, and also a really good selection of houseplants, including some you wouldn’t find in your run of the mill garden centres. I picked up a cool little dioscorea elephantipes on my last visit. The cafe has quite a good selection of food and drinks but doesn’t seem to have much in the way of vegan food. All in all, it’s worth a visit if you’re in the area.
A brilliant overall experience. Amazing variety of plants, shrubs and trees. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. The transport links are excellent. The W3 bus will take you right outside the centre. There is a small car park, but it can get busy so you'll need to go early. You can visit the cafe for a small bite to eat, it's conveniently located just by the garden centre. Prices are a little bit on the expensive side, but it's the quality and experience that makes it worth while.
What a lovely garden centre. A fantastic selection of both indoor and outdoor plants, all looking very healthy. Cafe was sweet and simple, with indoor and outdoor seating. Cashier was friendly and helpful.
One of our favorite spots for reasonably priced, quality flowers, trees and bedding plants. Great selection of pots and planters as well. Indoor plants and gifts section well stocked, though some home goods a bit pricey. Cafe is worth trying for nice tea and cakes!
So many beautiful plants and flowers to choose from, lovely terrace and kind staff!
Friendly staff. Lots of seating available. After a walk through Ally Pally's grounds, I enjoyed my sausage roll, passion fruit cake with a hot chocolate drink.
This is large Garden Centre within the grounds of the fabulous Ally Pally. A rustic, pleasant atmosphere with a huge array of Pots, Planters and garden accessories which is matched by the great variety of plants – both indoor and outdoor, as well as the enormous range of seeds.
Their website is accurate and extremely easy to navigate for merchandise. Other Garden Centres have websites that are vague, so near impossible to search for specific items of stock.
Perhaps, some of the indoor area could do with some sprucing up but all in all this Garden Centre is outstanding and I’m very happy with my purchase. I’ll definitely visit again, and I highly recommend this place.
Lovely plants 🌹 & spacious
Every type of garden implement available.
With Nice COFFEE shop
Absolutely love this garden centre. Very good selection which evolves with the season. I discover a new pla't every time I go, and I go a lot.
Great spot for a sunny day stroll. Lots of variety for outdoor, indoor edible non edible plants. Lots of plant accessories and furniture too. They even have fake plants and garden furniture. The staff are helpful and polite. Currently they're doing 15% off everything which is great. The discount increases as you buy more things also. Would recommend stopping by if in the ally pally area!
A very pleasant and useful garden centre inside the grounds of Alexandra Palace. Plenty of plants, and small garden appliances. The cafe is also a peace oasis after shopping around.
Beautiful plants inside and outside. Many choices. Impossible to leave without buying a new plant 😃 Staff is kind and helpful 👍
Wonderful garden centre and café. Staff were super friendly and patiently helped us gardening newbies choose plants without making us feel like beginners. Bonus was the lovely cream tea, in the sun on the roof terrace. What a lovely day out! Highly recommended.
