Hideously overstocked and rife with disease as a result. I have spent thousands on plants at stodels over the years (see @allmygreenfriends on IG)… What used to be a really pleasant experience with great plant styling and more variety is now a claustrophobic nightmare of 100s of each type of plant crammed into their indoor space! Some of the pots aren’t even standing on the shelves upright they are so tightly packed and there are forgotten corners with plants all smothering each other. You can barely navigate a trolley through their isles anymore - it’s basically a factory farm for plants now. They have gone from quality to quantity and it’s very sad.
My first shop at Stodels ever... Wow... What an amazing experience. Wide range of indoor and outdoor plants. All nicely laid out and marked according to environmental requirements. Staff are friendly and helpful... Will definitely go back for more
The nursery and staff are fantastic BUT the kiddies play area is OUT-of-this-WORLD!!! Amazing!!! Wow! We will definitely be back.
April 27 . The garden centre was nearly empty at 3 in the afternoon. Very few customers in the cafe . Great place to sit and chat . English scone with either cheese or cream with strawberry jam for R45. Excellent value.A very pleasant garden centre. No big crowds on Sunday morning . Easy to walk around .
Always wonderful to visit Stodels. Friendly helpful staff and the most beautiful plants.
To one of the managers, Calvin, thank you for a totally unexpected and outstanding response to a complaint I had. I expected to be fobbed off yet again with, well look into it and then nothing ever happens, as usual.Well, I certainly felt heard this time!This man is an asset to Stodels!Also Wanda at the help desk and Wensley, who assisted with advice and by pushing the heavily-laden trolley: great service guys!
It is always a wonderful experience. Found what i wanted and there staff always at hand when you are looking for something. Keep up the good work.
Lovely soothing atmosphere among their beautiful floral displays
Nice place good people, but damn those prices. Can find lower prices elsewhere. Good friendly place tho
I just love Stodels it has everything plus friendly staff
Olwethu is amazing & he will equip you with knowledge, tools and advice for your garden. Very friendly and willing to offer his assistance
Very helpful staff, great products on special
Contacted Stodels Milnerton, asking for assistance to select a plant gift as I live in another city.Oswayne contacted me personally and he helped me choice and secure the perfect plant that was collected.Great, friendly service. I shall continue to support my favourite Garden Centre, always a place to exhale from our busy lives. Thank you Oswayne.
Nice coffee shop. Friendly helpful staff. Great specials
Best nursery in Table View. Great variety, healthy plants, friendly staff.
....Very nice-lii located garden centre after the store which was on my doorsteps closed its doors in Bothasig. They just about have everything you would want for your gardening, There is loads of parking. Prices are good and the staff are helpful and pleasant! They have the best Gas-toxin to eradicate MOLES from digging-up your garden. And it works IMMEDIATE-LII EVERY-TIME! And your garden will be Mole-Free for many years to come!..................
Fabulous Stodels! Freindly and helpful staff peaceful environment and beautiful plants good prices. Love the place.
A very pleasant couple of hours strolling round the complex
A beautiful garden center with extremely helpful and knowledgeable staff
One of my favourite Stodels. Great outdoor area, helpful staff and after all that plant shopping theres a nice cafe to chow at or have a tea.
Very nice place to visit the topnotch condition is great. The different plants and displays are excellent. Staff very friendly and helpful. The manager VERNON is excellent and attentive to all customers and staff makes it a wonderful experience.
Great place to get all your gardening goods. Plants are reasonably priced but pots and pot covers are expensive.They have a nice coffee shop on the premises offering cakes and drinks. Stodels is dog friendly so long as they are on a leash. Staff are helpful and friendly and have a wealth of knowledge and advice on plants and their care.
Clean well laid out with a fair variety of plants ... price ingredients on some pots a little beyond steep tho
Excellent service and such a wide variety of plants.
Brilliant service, great atmosphere and good prices. A really enjoyable experience to shop by them. You get a very few places that know their stock as well stodels.
Had an absolute ball. Got carried away with the variety. So therapeutic wow thank God for Stodel garden centre to makeThis levels changes bearable.
Very enjoyable experience staff very friendly and efficient
Good thyme restaurant is fantastic.It has an an amazing playground for the kids. the food is great and so is the service...
Everything you need. Friendly helpful staff. Swing and fish pond thrilled the kids.They just need to make sure prices are displayed on everything e.g. big compost bags no prices shown. If not for that, they would have 5 stars.
A bit expensive but staff friendly and helpful. Plants excellent quality. Always ready and willing to assist. Well worth popping in..
Good variety and clean store. Helpful staff.
Very impressive place with a great barber/hairdresser shop ask for Tessa she is great
Awesome place friendly helpful staff and amazing selection
Beautiful, neat store. Friendly staff.
Great variety of plants, a little on the pricey side, but the friendly staff and awesome checks make up for it. There is also a great little DIY shop, pet shop and coffee shop (we didnt pop in) o no news there. This strip mall has various other services on offer. Do stop by.
Good food at Thyme Cafe
Great service well trained staff. Thanks guys
Amazing staff, friendly and very helpful. Plants not badly priced either. Child and pet friendly too. One of my favourite places to shop at.
Have been here quite a few times and the assistants are very helpful. Although the place is not as big as some of the garden centers around, they always seem to have what we need at a reasonable price. Really a good center to do your garden purchases as well as stopping over at Good Thyme Café in the complex.
Enjoyed the Good Thyme restaurant. Friendly staff and good food.
Its a lovely garden centre, has a huge variety. But i personally prefer Bellville Branch.
Friendly and very helpful staff
Like the little Cafe, food is good and staff are very friendly
Good staff, well laid out nursery and interesting mix of plants and accessories
I was misinformed about the availability of a plant on the phone. When I got to the store I was assisted by a store manager Mr. Evans who went above and beyond to sort out the problem and ensure everything worked out.He was very friendly and helpful :)
Very helpful staff. Enjoy that the plants are all well labeled.
Great sale prices and enthusiastic staff
One of my favourite shops in Cape Town. Dont go there if youre on a budget because you will go over! They have the most amazing plants and specials
Absolutely fabulous. Looks incredible and staff are wonderful. Thank you. Got everything we needed.
Got some unusual air plants. Great
It was my first time at this branch. Usually i frequent Kenilworth and Diep River stores. To my disappointment i found most of the sale items pricier than the other branches.
Awesome place. They had everything I was looking for, including an incredibly friendly young gentleman at the entrance. I will definitely be back
Amazing service from Oswayne!
Fed up. Everything more & more expensive & then lucky if it grows. In the last year lost a pincushion (not the first), a few gazanias, a Granadilla. Bought 3 Granadillas on special at S Ayres & all doing well. Cant afford to lose so much. Asked your cashier the name of the plant u offered a month or 2 ago. She kept telling me theres a different special every month . Told her I know but just want to know the name. Got her same reply. Oh dear, just told her to forget it.
Probably the best branch with the widest selection of goods. Well worth the trek if you dont stay in the area.
A large variety of plants, wide aisles, helpful, friendly staff.
Good quality plants at affordable prices... Plus a cool freebie plant.
Good parking and healthy looking plants. Vehicular access problematic and prices high.
The customer service was better than I could have hoped. From the managers to the assistant helping me with the trolley, every staff member I encountered was friendly and willing to help. Social distancing was easy to observe.
Great range of plants, pots, fertilizer, equipment. Staff always helpful and if they dont have what you are looking for they try their best to get it for you
Always an enjoyable experience. Helpful and friendly staff 💙
Very happy with my purchase and got a free gift. Stodels have a large variety of plant with information about planting-lovely display!
Good decent service. Staff really helpful. So was the chikens
What a fantastic nursery. Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. I have never seen such a wide range of products and plants ,neatly and attractively presented. I have to say the best I have been to in the Cape Town area.
Awesome garden centre, well priced. Unfortunately no hydroponic nutrients or equipment.
Nice place to shopping
Like sweets shop for akid
Staff very helpful and know their plants
Not impressed. Phoned in to ask if they stock Microgreens in bulk. Was informed that they do indeed. Arrived to ask where they are and staff said we no longer keep them in stock. Phone from the store informed that they do...only to show me one little packet of seeds 🤷♂️
Always helpful and all staff have a basic to excellent understanding of western cape flora and fona
Parts of car stolen while shopping in the stodels.No security on site.Very unsafe
Did not found everything we needed they did not have, we asked! Also we bought over R1000 of things yesterday and my husband forgot our card, they could not add it on the card today 🙃 😑 other places do!
Very helpful and friendly. Everybody asks to help if you need. Effecient and so much to choose from. Thanks for your help.
Fantastic service Johan you the man thx for all your help with the Gardena hose trolley
Best nursery in western cape
One of my favourite places to shop at. Excellent customer service...always.
Well over priced when compared to competitors or anywhere else for that matter
Excellent garden centre, usually plenty of plants on special. Great restaurant too.
Always a good experience. Staff are experienced and superfriendly ...without exception.Great Spring specials and other plants. Left there very happy and content! Will be back.👍🤞✌
Always a pleasure to look around the many plants one can choose from.
Beautiful, well stocked. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.
No stars for todays shopping. I am appalled about the service, Staff require customer skill training. I am a frequent shopper at Milnerton Stodels. This branch wil never see me again.
Great service, and they have a wide variety of things for sale! Like walking into plant heaven
Close to home and convenient. Bellville stodels is still the best.
Every month I get a free gift be it flowers,, herbs or tree.. Plus your birthday month you treated to a stodels voucher. Love this place
Dint have the things I needed and then there card machines didnt work,,, left with nothing,, very disappointing
We love going to the coffee shop, such friendly people. Peaceful, watching the chickens & fish...fresh air!
The store assistant went the extra mile to help us find what we wanted. Excellent service!
What an experience,luvly helpful personal and a beautiful place if u a plant lover, 8 out of 10 for me?
Im not a fan of gardening and know very little about it . The people here were very helpful in explaining everything in laymans terms and giving me some sound advise especially around breaking the bank on unnecessary purchases .Merely for the fact that they got me out of there with everything I needed in the shortest possible time was a win for me . I do however wish that some of the side stores were open but I think a lot of these have closed down since lockdown started
Fantastic!Just went to brows around and asked one of the friendly attendants to point me to the mint.He took me there and personally explained that there are lots of species available.Even a chocolate minthe surgested I smell it.I didnt believe him at once. How can a mint smell like chocolate mint.Well, I was so surprised when it really does!He carried on spending time with me and I felt really special that I just met the guy, and he chats with me and explaining all the cultivars that I did not even knew existed.He also explained to me that if we get a Stodels card we will get a discount of approximately 10% on our purchase...I was so astound that I forgot to look at his name badge.However, thank you to you, the white chap with the dirty hands that left everything you were busy with to assist me with such passion and grace.Hope you are recognized for your passion that you have for what you do.Very seldom that you will find someone with this fashion and Customer care.Thank you Chap, for making me feel Special😘
