Poppies - BROMLEY

Stopped here with Mother who is an avid gardener. Straight to toilet then cafe. Ordered a salad with cheese ham a chilli con carne jacket. Served pretty quickly tasted fresh. Mother enjoyed her Jacket. My salad was good, ham cheese standard packet stuff but adequate nevertheless. Tempted by the wide range of cakes available but managed to stay on diet avoid, they did look good though.

I went to Poppies for lunch with my mother and toddler a few days ago. It was the second time I've been there and the second time that service was incredibly slow despite the fact they had very few customers. This wouldn't have bothered me so much if the staff hadn't neglected to bring half our order and then been quite rude about it when we asked where it had got to. Needless to say, we won't be going there again!

A nice small cafe within a good garden centre. It is fine for lighter meals and snacks, I have had a good basic breakfast here but mostly call in for a bacon sandwich and a coffee. The prices are reasonable. Overall it is nothing special but a good average cafe. I have been told that they have WIFI here but I have not tried it myself.

We took 41 visually impaired Club members including helpers here for a pre-booked Afternoon Cream Tea. The staff welcomed the group and provided a selection of freshly made sandwiches with mixed salad and crisps, plus a couple of 'home made ' scones, jam and cream, plus tea and miniature cakes (provided due to the size of our group: otherwise home made cakes would have been provided). The scones were light by comparison with other venues. Our members were well treated and efficienty served by the staff. Many thanks for a pleasant and enjoyable afternoon.

Lovely Decor and coffee good when it arrived, we were told 20minutes for 3 warm rolls Jacket Potato which turned into about 40minutes. Rolls were lukewarm with cold chicken in and most of it was left apart from crisps. The Jacket Potato was worse and very cold in the middle. To give the staff their due it was very busy in there as right next to the Christmas Decorations and also Sunday lunchtime. More Staff obviously needed to keep up with numbers of customers. Food was returned after waiting for ages and a full refund offered. Will give this a miss in future unless its just for a coffee break.
