Raemoir Garden Centre is such a nice place to go for an afternoon. It has a restaurant serving main meals and afternoon teas, and a cafe which serves more simple light lunches and snacks. This garden centre in Banchory is huge and has loads to look at!
The Raemoir Garden Centre Cafe
The cafe is located in the foodhall serving coffee, tea, sandwiches and cakes to take away. They have a few tables and chairs inside and outside to sit at.
We grabbed a hot drink and a huge raspberry and white chocolate cupcake, topped with a macaroon from the cafe counter and sat outside to enjoy.
We shared the cupcake because it was so big and it was so deliciously sweet; definitely only needed half. It went perfectly with my cup of tea!
Just in case you’re wondering…we cut the wee macaroon in half too.
I’ve eaten lunch in the Garden Restaurant many times before and it is always delicious, so if you’re looking for something a bit more than a takeaway sandwich then definitely book into the restaurant.
The Garden Centre
The garden centre has so much to look at! They’ve got loads of plants and gardening goods, as well as homeware, giftware, bags, jewellery, kitchenware, home fragrance and a food section – honestly this is why I said it’s a great afternoon out.
I think their displays are amazing too; I love some good visual merchandising!
The Raemoir Foodhall
Raemoir has a lot of local produce on offer in their foodhall and deli counter; you can see where some of these are sourced on their website*. They also have their own Raemoir products made fresh daily in their in-house bakery and kitchen. I love finding nice jams, crackers, dips and chocolates for a little treat at home.
Your next day out is sorted!
Raemoir Garden Centre in Banchory is definitely worth spending the time to look around and see the massive selection of goods they have. It’s great to have the choice of the restaurant and cafe too, depending on what type of feed you’re after.
You will find the Raemoir Garden Centre on Raemoir Road, Banchory, Aberdeenshire AB31 4EJ.
