A HARDEN garden centre's catering team has found the ingredient for success in a top national awards scheme.
The Potting Shed restaurant at Woodbank took two coveted accolades in the Horticultural Trades Association contest.
It earned a silver award in the 'greatest catering team' category and bronze for the front-of-house team.
Judging in the annual competition was carried out by an independent panel of garden centre catering consultants and industry experts.
They said they were impressed with "all aspects of the restaurant and ice cream parlour, from the unique and wonderful ambience through to the menu and the commitment to serving the very best homemade food".
A presentation ceremony was held at The Belfry, in the West Midlands.
Potting Shed manager, Anna Gatenby, said: "These awards mean so much to the team, which works incredibly hard at what it does.
"To receive the recognition is fantastic."
