I give this service station high ratings due to the fact it has a variety of Hot food restaurants.Also has Waitrose & WHSmiths to get last minutes for home or on your journey/trip. The list of choices below;Waitrose, WHSmiths, Burger King, KFC, Subway, Chopstix, Harry Ramsden and Starbucks.And if you want to treat your self to a cheeky treat, you have a small Krispy Kreme selection.

What can you say about a service station?We turned up about 9am to find pretty much all the food outlets closed. It was a Sunday so that may have been the reason but it was still surprising.That said the massive breakfast cob (2 sausages, 2 bacon, an egg and 2 hash browns) from Harry Ramsdens of all places was great, even if the bacon did nearly break my teeth.

One of the best services that I have been to.It is very clean - everytime someone left their table was cleaned. The toilets were emaculate and plentiful, so no queues.The food was quick despite there being lots of people, and the people working had great customer service (I ordered from Burger King, so can't comment on the others).The parking on the southbound is very weird, so we ended up driving past the car park with no where to turn back around. We had to park at the petrol station, but it only had a minute walk.

I popped in here on my journey home.It was clean, quiet and a welcome rest.Obviously the prices are higher than average for the brands which is expected at motorway services.I was only disappointed by the fact I couldn't get a sit down, knife and fork style, English meal. Like a traditional little chef would offer. It was just big brand fast food.On the plus side I got to unload the huge wee I'd been hanging on to (since sitting on the m25 at 15mph) and I invented the world's best sandwich at the subway.Which hasn't got ranch sauce by the way (lunacy).

Busy restaurant site, lots of dining in/out options.we visited Burger King & used self ordering kiosks ( all the kiosks went off-line for 1/2 minutes as we started to use). When we placed our order, there must have been 20 orders before us ( a monitor displays your order no), however our food was quickly served and was fresh and tasty. When BK gets its offer right, its definitely at the top table of burger restaurants.Why not 5 stars ? Had to sit at dirty table, no-one in sight cleaning tables & no facilities available to clean ourselves. Secondly my bun broke up during eating which makes for a messy experience. This is easily rectified by lightly toasting. Attention to detail 👌.However tasty meal and great mayo.

Not a particularly good services. If you have a wheelchair or pushchair you will need to use the loft to get anything to eat. The lift requires you to hold a button down the whole time to move it up or down. The lift is incredibly slow so holding the button down feels ridiculous for that length of time.

Great view! Whopper from Burger King wasn't very whopperish. Starbucks coffee was excellent and very hot and it kept me awake on my journey from the South to the North.Plus I managed to photograph a Downton and an Eddie Stobart so I was well chuffed!🙃

Standard motorway services. Was clean and offered many food outlets. Located on both sides of the motorway and accessible via over bridge. Was extremely busy because of the long bank holiday weekend. It has electric car chargers as well.

Very friendly place with lots of food outlets for every taste whether it's Chinese, burgers or Sandwich that you fancy. The facilities are great with open plan seating on an upper level Nd shops on the bottom. The food is great and fresh.

Showers are disgusting, pictures attached, also in order to use them You have to give up Your car keys on time the shower is taken to exchange for keys to access the shower, no-one knows what they do with Your key, one light doesn't work so You can't see the mess inside 😅, while taking shower prepare to adapt every 2 seconds to different temperature of water, hot-cold. 2 stars only because they've just refurbished the car park.
