Skip Garden And Kitchen

‘Eco-friendly’ communal garden and ‘cafe’ meticulously stage-crafted from aggregated salvage and industrial debris adds a wry aside and some slapstick relief to the cosmetic and coiffured Corporate controlled surrounds. Possibly disingenuous kissing cousins of the same ilk in this ‘safely designated area.’ A noteworthy accomplishment and certainly worth exploring.

Small community garden which has been put together from reused materials such as salveged windows used to create a glasshouse, to skips doubling up as herb and fruit gardens. A unique and memorable experience. There is also a small cafeteria in the garden, which serves delicious food at affordable prices. The cafeteria is open Tuesday to Saturday from 10 to 4 and serves lunch from 12 to 2. The staff is really friendly. The garden is free to visit and no booking is required for either the garden or cafeteria. Would strongly recommend visiting if you are in the area. On the side of the skip garden, there is also a free viewing platform with a good view of Lewis Cubitt Park.

Unique, unexpected and a treasure. You must visit!!! Good for having a nose, for volunteering, for grabbing a coffee, and unique small conference/workshop venue. While I can’t say from experience that there open days and events are also good, i would take an educated guess that they would be. I highly recommend
