Bicester Avenue Garden Centre

The one of the sale advisors was so helpful and nice to me , helped to choose the right Christmas tree and a stand for it . I’m so thankful, she made my Christmas mood much nicer , her name is Suzzele ( I’m sorry if I misspelled it) .Nice centre. I highly recommend to visit )

My first visit which was on a weekday was a really pleasant surprise. Parking aplenty. Approaching the shops was so different from retail parks, a sense of attractive modern, uncrowded and green. The main garden centre with restaurant and so much more was lovely; a bright and inviting environment with quality products that created a real sense of ideas for the home and buying temptation. Our lunches from a good varied menu were really nice, then tea and delicious cakes later at another eatery. The other separate shops were interesting too especially the huge pet store (unfortunately I don't have any pets). Probably spent 3 hours there but with so much to see we're looking forward to going again soon.

Nice area! They also have an area for pets, which is lovely. The Service variate depending on the shift, I guess. We normally go every Saturday or Sunday. However, this weekend, I was not very impressed with the service at the cashier. Overall, it is nice!

This place has some great products and if you’re a lover of shopping then you’ll be well catered for BUT this is no garden centre in any traditional sense. The sheer scale of the place makes it feel quite soulless and like an airport - I kept expecting to hear tannoy announcements telling me unattended baggage would be destroyed!If you like large airport / shopping centre vibes you’ll love this place but for me, it just felt far too corporate and some of the terms used on menus for example (arugula anyone?) hint at it being aimed at the international Bicester village crowd.Worth a visit, but in no hurry to go back.

Great place to go for a day out. Good quality plants, great selection for everything you might need for your garden or home!! Excellent food in the restaurant and cafe. The soft play area is a must if you have young children, you can sit down with a coffee while they run around and have lots of fun. The staff are so very helpful too.

Nice place with lovely gifts but how disappointing that the cafes don't label cakes etc with a V, to show they are vegetarian (not vegan). I don't want to trouble staff to look up every item to make sure they are, so as a result I didn't buy any. Although they probably were vegetarian but why not show it with a V to make it easy for vegetarians to know? In this day and age I find it very odd. Or is it just that vegetarians are being ignored now, with increasingly just a choice between vegan or meat? Considering there are a lot more vegetarians than vegans this makes no economic sense and is also very frustrating for vegetarians. I won't buy cakes from here until you bother to label them to confirm they are vegetarian as most cafes do, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Lovely garden centre especially at Christmas time. Visited with grandchildren to see Santa which was great. Did think a basic egg sandwich with a few chips at £10.95 was very overpriced and certainly not worth the money sadly!

Just had lunch in the restaurant at Bicester Avenue Garden Centre. To my delight the chefs have created a wonderful new menu with plenty of choice for vegetarians. I've very much enjoyed the beetroot risotto. As always the staff are very efficient, obliging and pleasant ☺️

Parking excellent, garden centre itsel was beautifully decorated for Christmas had an excellent choice of decorations etc.First port of call was the patisserie which was ok though I felt the cakes were expensive for what they were. After a play in the play area which was very good for the 2 year old with us we went to the main restaurant. The menu sounded delicious, however,……food arrived cold. Baked potato cold didn’t even melt the butter the prawns and crayfish was nothing exciting. Hubster had the burger which was supposed to be katsu was nothing different other than the mayo had a few spices in and that was so cold he couldn’t eat it. Whole eating experience very disappointing and would not recommend eating there, go and find a local pub!!!

Great big garden centre with a huge range of indoor and outdoor plants and homeware. We went for afternoon tea for my mums 90th birthday. Staff were all so friendly and made a great effort to help us celebrate. We upgraded to a glass of Prosecco each for a small fee. The food was so delicious with a great range. Scones were huge and cakes very yummy great value for money.
