My leashed 'puppy' dog admiring the views


The day hubby and I visited, the Stonebridge Gardens Cafe & Bar was totally booked out (much to our disappointment), but a walk through the stunning Botanic Gardens was enough for us to realise that this is one venue well worth putting on 'repeat visit', to appreciate the spectacular gardens and hopefully, to include a dining experience. Stonebridge Gardens Cafe & Bar is proving to be extremely popular and as mentioned before, bookings are essential. And the cherry on top? It's leashed doggy friendly too!
