History
How Dylan's got it's name
‘The drains were eventually completed and we opened to the public with one stable part converted and containing a few ‘strange arty crafty’ people and the old kitchen laid up with thirteen or so chairs and named Dylans Country Tea Shop.
The story behind the name ‘Dylans’ is that our special nephew, Alexander, has downs Syndrome and when he began to speak he always had great difficulty saying Linda, it always came out as Dylan. We have been closely associated with Alex’s growing years and he and his school, The Montacute School, visit the Centre regularly.
We had vowed that whatever business we started, it would be called Dylans…..’
Dylans Restaurant was opened on June 6th 1990.
