Kings Plant Barn Remuera

Coffee so strong I won’t sleep for a month. Asked for sugar white or brown even nope only have coconut. Disgusting attitude on Barista so glad I carry my own sugar packets. This has to me my worst coffee in a long time I did complain they didn’t care. Will I recommend to people NO WAY will I come back again NO WAY …. They don’t offer hot food no kitchen ok sure we have 5year old with us and there’s absolutely NOTHING in the cabinet that would satisfy a child NOTHING.

Easy to find with convenient parking. They have a wide variety of flowers, plants, and vegetables. Friendly staff and a great place for all plant lovers.

Very nice garden center, not so easy to find but great store, we met Jonathan there and he was of great assistance and extremely knowledgeable. All the staff is very friendly and welcoming. Very nice tea garden

The place itself is nice. Variety of plants is good.nnIt’s pram, wheelchair and trolley friendly/accessible. Has a kids playhouse and trampoline.nnThe only let down was the cafe. It’s not very good in terms of food or options. There’s no syrups for the coffee, rather disappointing. I asked for a mocha and ended up with something strong and not a mocha, there was no chocolate it in at all. They don’t do sugar either, just some “coconut sugar” which is rather disappointing again. No hot chips or chicken nuggets, no kids meals either. It was rather sad when my 5 year old niece asked the lady for chicken nuggets and hot chips and she said “we don’t do that here” and my niece looked at her weird and went off to sulk, she was not impressed. I think it’s rather odd and strange to call it a “cafe” and all you offer is coffee, sandwiches and some pastries. Not really a cafe, a cafe implies you have more food options, this place does not. The ham and cheese croissant was nice though.nnReally did not meet my expectations. Most likely won’t be coming back it was so disappointing.nnOn a cold windy stormy day of 10 degrees or less, needless to say hot food was needed and not served.

Apart from one young man at counter, really unpleasant place. Asked about whether a native plant was in store and got the most rude response about its unavailability. No parking and no good bike areas. Better time if you at least want kind staff at Palmers around the corner!
