Recently heard of this cafe so decided to pop in as we were in the area. Coffee and toasted teacake lovely. Very friendly staff and surroundings. All for a good cause. Will definitely be calling again.

Lovely little haven in a busy world. Situated next to the garden centre (though this is no longer open to the public) and across from the cricket pitch in historic Bromborough Pool Village, the cafe is run by Autism Together, one of their several resources locally. Food is simple fare but fills the gap nicely. The cakes are bespoke and varied and, depending on your taste, some of these are to die for. Unusually for this day and age you can get a nice pot of tea here. Staff are warm and lovely and there are frequent clients to the cafe who are probably linked with the local charity and the cafe is a safe and welcoming space for them. Dropping in for tea and a snack is like a mini-retreat from the harshness of the world.

A recent find for me but now a regular haunt. The garden centre is staffed by people, both with autism and supporting autism, and superbly shows off their skills in raising plants as well as their hand crafted items such as pottery and wooden garden furniture. A really nice cafe on site too.

A lovely cafe with calm decor and big windows overlooking a park. All food on the menu is prepared to order and fresh local produce is used. There are plants for sale as well as newspapers, crisps and sweets. The cafe is run by the local Autistic Society and all profit supports their work. Friendly helpful staff and lovely cakes! Well worth a visit!

Called in just for a coffee and to support the charity. Very quiet but quite close to closing time. I enjoyed the peace. One member of staff who was very pleasant and went out of her way to find me some oatmilk. Thank you, I'll definitely call in again.

We had our first visit recently after discovering its existence on a Facebook post. We went to have a look at the plants but had lunch there too. Service was efficient and very friendly, the sandwiches and scones were good quality and very good value. The plants all looked well grown and were very reasonably priced & all are growing well since I transplanted them. We also bought a selection of the home made pottery items too. It's a great place and you are helping support a great cause.

Brought my daughter for the summer activities. Rabbit petting and farm animals. She loved it! Her meal was only 1 with mine and amazing, sandwich, crisps, muffin and a drink. Lovely to help the Autism together charity too.
