Great place for a proper roadside brekkie. They also do roast dinners sandwiches rolls great coffee and tea lovely staff...

Old style classic English cafe. Seems like a family run business. Very welcoming and friendly service. Great food.

Genuinely lovely people in a proper old school transport cafe. Loads of room to park car / truck / motorbike. Inside is warm and welcoming. Toilets are sparkling. Staff are very genuine and friendly and the food is spot on. Fried slice is standard as are two sausages in the breakfast - no skimflation here! Vegan options available and coffee is plentiful and good. Good outside seating for when the weather is better with great views across the valley.

Came here once as a kid 30 years ago, it hasn't changed, it's still the comfortable trucker stop it was then. Food is banging and great value.

Great choice of food at very good prices. Always a great place to stop relax mid working day.

Proper cafe serving proper food. They also cater to those who like modern type stuff, but go for the full breakfast, brilliant.
