My wife and I have passed this Cafe on several occasions over the years. It was not until recently that we called in on route to visit friends. Our first visit some time back was a wonderful experience, so much so that we found it hard to believe that it was still possible to have a lunch well produced at such a reasonable cost. Our next visit was planned, and the result was just the same, good wholesome food well produced and very reasonable in price! This prompted me to write a review. Yes I know it is a truck stop and yes it is a cafe, but thats where it ends. If you want a good well cooked, no frills meal, this is the place to stop by. It is not upmarket, but who cares, the staff are friendly (hard working) and they do a great job, Great to drop in when going past for a break and refreshment. You will not be dissapointed...

Delicious breakfast & excellent service. We sat outside with our mini Daschund. Dogs are welcome inside but it was very busy so sat outside. Freshly cooked breakfast was massive. Haven't had fried bread for years ! Definitely worth a visit.

Arrived in Newhaven on the 5am ferry. This was the first place we could stop on our journey to Bristol. Lots of breakfast options, including gluten free - toasted gluten free bacon sandwich was very tasty, along with a mug of filter coffee. Staff were friendly and helpful. A good traditional transport café.

Great transport café near Wilton/Salisbury. Only kopen Mon-Fri I believe but worth a stop. All sorts of breakfasts and lunches. Seating inside and out though it does get busy at times. Everyone from truckers to families welcome. Toilets, free parking and EV charging available.

I took my wife, mother in law, and step mom to this Cafe on our way to Stonehenge and we had such a wonderful experience. This a family owned business for over 50 years and we were grateful to have met and had a chance to converse with Ian the owner. Unfortunately we learned his wife passed away a couple years ago, but we could tell she was still there in Spirit. The food was of course also excellent. I highly recommend visiting this place. Thank you Ian and your amazing staff for your excellent service.

The venue whilst predominantly a Transport Cafe if also suitable for families and any visitor. Clean friendly and a good stop on a journey. Highly Recommended.

We visited this place on our way to Cornwall as it is only a 3 minute detour from the A303 and came highly recommended. The food was absolutely top notch and as a fussy eater they were happy to let me substitute menu items for ones which suited me. Literally could not fault this place, will definitely be back the next time we are passing

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.

We are retired hauliers and our drivers used this cafe regularly. We called in for breakfast in our motorhome and were delighted to find it is still as welcoming and good value as ever. Great service and a fine breakfast. So many of the old transport cafes have now closed so it is great to see Hillside survive and thrive.

What a brilliant spur of the moment decision. Great quality food for great prices. Homemade food and fresh ingredients. Friendly local people who clearly enjoy what they do. I was particularly impressed with the freshness of the salad I'd been craving. No pre-cut salad, it was all freshly prepared and you could taste it. Hubby had a breakfast and enjoyed every bite. Well worth a visit. Also clean and hygienic which makes a huge impact.

Stopped in shortly before closing time as route back was congested, ordered ham/cheese salad sandwich and it was very nice, rest of menu looks decent and decent prices, had I been earlier I would have ordered a hot meal. Requested to park overnight in the truck park and as long as no refrigerated trailer running it was ok & no charge. Great place a little off the A303 and well worth a visit.

Breakfast was very good, with plenty of it and great value, would recommend it to anyone passing through. So good food, sensible prices, and polite friendly staff. The icing on the cake was a lovely large slice of bread pudding to take away.

Very nice. Its so good to see a truckers cafe still open. All we get now is burger vans, mostly greasy & over priced. Hillside is clearly run by people that actually care about customers, rather than how much profit they can make out of us. Keep it going as long as you can please. You are essential to us truckers.

I've been coming here on and off for over 25 years and the consistency and quality has never changed throughout. I was a frequent visitor in the 90s and 2000s until I left the UK. I kept coming back every time I passed through and one thing never changed. The fantastic food and friendly, professional quality offered by Hillside Cafe. I visited in June 2022 and everything was just as it was except they now offer some 'healthier' menu options which looks fantastic and I'll try next time. They really do cater to all tastes. My traditional breakfast was great. Thick cut bacon, fried slice to die for, eggs, beans and sausage. I've eaten fry ups all over the UK and this is one of the best. Bravo and thanks for all the years of a reliable and friendly pit stop East to West. Also bloody good value as seen by the menu which is clearly available on every table and posted on the wall!
