Dobbies Garden Centre is
so much more than its name
would suggest. You can head
on over for all your gardening
needs, to pick up bulbs and
seeds or shrubs and trees, but
you can also find something
less expected. The on-site
restaurant produces delicious
and wholesome dishes, but it’s
the food hall that’s worth getting
really excited about: here you’ll
find locally-sourced produce
amongst more exotic pleasures,
including Turkish delight and
the finest Mediterranean olive
oil. If you’ve finally given in to
your child’s plea for a pet, take
a trip to Dobbies to peruse the
extensive aquatic section. A
myriad of tanks house fish of
different species, and even
crabs and seahorses have
been known to pop up now and
again. The tank and pet are
just the start incidentally: you’ll
need food, cleaner and an
information booklet - thankfully
Dobbies’ knowledgeable staff
will be happy to help. If you’re
not quite ready to take the
plunge and acquire a pet, you
can always direct your kids in
the direction of children’s world,
where you’ll find a huge array
of clothing, books and toys to
keep them happy.
