A much-loved garden centre near Glasgow is set to unveil a new and improved food hall this week.
Dobbies say the vibrant new cottage kitchen garden style foodhall will open on Thursday (February 12) at its Braehead and Milngavie store.
The pair are two of Dobbies’ first stores to transform their foodhall, with a further 47 stores planned in the coming weeks, offering customers the opportunity to discover and celebrate great food.
The firm said the new food halls reflect Dobbies’ commitment to investing in these two stores and responding to what local customers want. The new design came from feedback from both communities, with new ways identified to improve both the food range and the overall shopping experience.
There will also be a host of introductory offers, including 30 per cent off Farmhouse biscuits and Belgid’Or chocolates and 20 per cent off Coolmore cakes, and favourite brands like Fever Tree and Savoursmiths, available until March 31.
To mark the first weekend of opening from Thursday February 12, sampling of some of the new products will be available at various times, and one lucky customer, through the doors will win a hamper filled with selected products.
With more than 2,000 products, they added that customers will be spoilt for choice, with Dobbies’ famous scones and tray bakes available, as well as a host of new brands like Botham’s of Whitby and Patteson’s.
Deli foods will also feature, with everything to make the perfect cheeseboard or party platter, with a new range of chilled products including cheese, deli meats, olives and dips. To accompany this, there will also be a wide selection of biscuits for cheese, sharing bags of crisps and snacks, nuts and dried fruits. The pantry section will also host foods from around the world.
The ranges of gift foods will increase with a broader selection of alcohol and premium soft drinks. Everything from gin gift packs to all-natural handmade beverages from Hullabaloo.
General manager at Dobbies’ Braehead, Charles Randall, said: “The foodhall is one of the most popular areas in the store and an important part of our garden centre experience.
“We’ve been working hard on the new format that’s inspired by a cottage kitchen garden and brings together essentials, treats and seasonal variety through a range of both popular and new brands. We’re excited to welcome customers in to see the new ranges and try them for themselves.”
The new foodhalls at Dobbies Braehead and Dobbies Milngavie will open from Thursday, February 12.
