Forest View Nursery& Cafe

Forest View is a family-run plant nursery and café on Forest Road outside Newport, selling a rotating stock of shrubs, trees, seasonal bedding plants, succulents and houseplants alongside compost, pots and garden sundries. Staff give advice on planting, feeding and aftercare for whatever customers are buying, from first-time houseplant owners to people replanting a border. The on-site café serves breakfast, lunch and snacks from a straightforward menu of cooked breakfasts, sandwiches, cakes and hot drinks, with indoor seating and tables outside among the plant displays. The nursery opens slightly later on Sundays than during the week, and the café closes half an hour before the nursery itself each day. It operates as a working retail nursery rather than a garden centre chain outlet, with stock bought in from growers and changed through the seasons. The combination of plants and food draws a mix of gardeners doing a weekly shop and visitors stopping for a meal.
