Blue Diamond Garden Centres have opened The Parlour, an Edwardian restaurant in Springfields Shopping Centre, Spalding.

The restaurant is in a stand alone unit that overlooks the Festival Gardens and is connected to the garden centre via a retractable covered walkway which traverses the rear of other shop units delivery areas.

Matthew Upton, previously Head Chef at Blue Diamond East Bridgford, has created the menu and is managing the restaurant working with the team from the Noshery in the garden centre.

The Edwardian style decor, with the added touch of a grand piano, creates sense of calm and occasion with a menu of Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch and Afternoon Tea that is quite different from the garden centre offering.
