Hopwood Park in Bromsgrove

To the first aiders at Hopwood thank you for helping me after my accident on the escalator on Monday 14th April. I might have missed my holiday but your help was really appreciated.

Good stop off on our long trip. Good variety of places to eat and get a drink. Very, very busy on the day we visited.

Good services normally but let down by short opening hours for food outlets. Nice array of Tesla Supercharger chargers. Good clean toilets.

Great place to take your break even if a bit tight and bumpy in the yard. The truck drivers gym is a great idea

One of the better service areas; good range of facilities and generally kept clean and tidy.

Clean very crowded lots of chargers

Good size services. Lots of places to buy coffee as long as you like Starbucks!

So many food options available!

Plenty of parking clean. Big. Good choice of food and drinks. Not unreasonably priced for services. Cheaper thN msny but not cheap. One of the best services in my view

We couldn't find any Halal option there

Welcome Break are now spending a lot of money improving the lorry parking and lorry driver facilities at their sites. A very large lorry park here now, what looks like a brand new outside lorry drivers gym has been sited near the lorry parking area. Plenty of food outlets in the main building.

This is our first or last stop off point when we travel Northwards. Very busy place.

Clean toilets, was ok getting parking, not many child parking spots, ok variety of food

Everything you'd expect from a motorway services. Modern, fresh and with ample parking. Navigation from M5 south could be better.

The car enjoyed herself. Chatting to the posh cars! I need to have a word!

Slow chargers, food was awful, place was freezing cold, seating area was full of old food orders. 90 mins I won't get back.

Clean and normal over prices motorway service food

Typical services. Good range but over priced for

Great place to atop. Good choices for food. Amenities were clean. Nice place to have a relax outdoors before travelling onwards. Kids play area outdoors as well.

Decent standard, expensive for food and snacks, like most of them.

Most services rubbish, bad food very expensive

Breakfast was fabulous at the Good Breakfast. Overall facilties at the services a bit shabby and could do with refurbishment.

Busy service station. Plenty of chargers. Loos fine. Was able to purchase a Wait Rose Sandwich

Please, please do get some new chairs. Scruffy and ugly making the whole place look cheap and nasty when actually it's a decent service station.

Great place to charge an EV, many stations and good services for pit stop

Not the easiest to get to. Decent selection of shops.

Perfect for stopping on the way in or out of Birmingham to the south.

Easy to park for all vehicles and plenty of food options

If you're bursting be aware toilet is up a escalator but very clean and tidy

As a place is ok, but not having SNAP to pay the parking for trucks, it's not ok at all

I needed a wee while driving the car ...this place has a toilet . Although I can't give it five stars, as I think someone in there had a bad belly.

Needs a water fountain to fill bottles!

Super speed more charging spaces than the cars coming to chatge. Nearly empty. Good shops

Really nice and clean and very friendly people 💯💯💯💯👍

Handy for Charging but limited food open after 18:00

It’s a shame you can’t give a minus star, over priced and underwhelmed. Arrived at 4am only to find garage open. Nowhere to get hot food. Very disappointed

Disabled toilets closed. Only toilets open were upstairs. I obviously missed something but I cant walk upstairs. Cest la vie.

Standard services, pricey but clean.

Nice service station always clean and tidy throughout, plenty of choices on offer for food and drink so that you can rest up before continuing your journey.

All good but abit chilly in here Also if you're gonna have a play area for the kids, clean the chalk board off & provide chalk for writing & crayons for the colouring area otherwise its just a waste of time...

Used with a group of children. Seated them all, ordered Mac Donald's, staff lively, food exactly as ordered. No issues.

Good place to stretch legs and have a bit.

Łezka musi być. Poza tym nawet ok.

No escalators to toilets working on Monday or Friday last week and I guess the days in between. Not good enough

Toilets were in a terrible state

Let down as parking for parents is a awful with very few parent parking spots, it appears that many have been lost to electric charging points, why haven't these been put towards the back of the carpark leaving plenty of space for parent parking?

Dismall and expensive like most services

Very bad place customer service is bad

Not good awful loos with queues very confusing with food outlet had to faff around with ordering drinks and food and pricey as well not a place I would recommend

Great place to stop, really clean

Stopped for a toilet break. Always a good stop

Full English with black pudding and button mushrooms etc £11

Good parking. Dirty tables and floors. Pigeons come inside sometimes and wonder round eating food off the floor

£34 to park here as a HGV…. That’s without a meal voucher, let alone having to walk about 20 miles to the main services. Are you taking the mick?

Popped in for a pee, clean toilets

Truck Parking is expensive and way to far from the services.

Clean. Had all good etc the traveller would need. Easy access for my mobility issues.

Clean. Multitude of fast food outlets. Good break area.

I've bought a family bucket at KFC and when I tried it I realised it have a very bad smell and then I saw that the chicken was green on the inside I suggest you don't come here to eat also I want to the till and the manager said that it all smells the same because I wanted to change it for another one

Clean bathrooms, enough car parking, great atmosphere 👌

Convenient stop off with decent facilities

Stop here regularly. Not a bad site and does what it should. The Only down side is probably too many electric chargers take up a lot if space...bit thatscwhere were going.

Considering the cost you'd think the food would be cooked to order. My burger & onion rings tasted anything but... accessible toilets were only ok. Overall disappointing 😞

May recommend Big carparks, clean place

The services had a light, airy, modern feel. There was Waitrose so a chance to get reasonable food. Starbucks coffee is terrible so I didn't bother with a coffee. The was one CHAdeMO charger available without waiting but the charge rate was slow.

Really nice stop / layout inside

Service station spot on KFC I would avoid at all costs they don’t honour the deals on the self order machines charged me for the upgrades but refused to give them to me as they said it wasn’t an offer they do yet these were on the self order machines

Only used the toilets nice and clean though

Absolute chaos, cars stopping with owners relieving themselves in full view of queuing traffic. Disgusting.

Long queues in and out of the car park. Terrible. The service itself is OK.

Worst ever experience at a motorway service station🤬🤬🤬COMPLETE and UTTER CHAOS Don’t use this place unless you have hours to waste 🤬🤬🤬pulled in for a quick loo stop & an hour later still on the car park being harassed by Tesla drivers trying to access charging points. This place really needs to get organised & warn people to prepare for extensive delays. This was not a motorists “Service” area it was a charging point for electric vehicles. This experience certainly confirmed to me that this country is far from ready to become 💯 electric. Avoid this place at all costs.

Rating for EV drivers. The EV charging is Applegreen which is the best I have found. Don't use the grid serve which is a lot slower

Very untidy and the tables needed a good clean

Ok services plenty of EV charging points.

Best motorway services l have visited in the UK,and l am a retired long distance driver.my partner is disabled no problem all the services on site were easy to use

Always clean and friendly staff

Good services. Spacious and clean. Only downside the toilets are upstairs. 🤣😂🤣😂lazy truck driver I am.

Car park is a bit chaotic but inside the services was clean and the selection of food outlets was good.

Clean and I felt like I was interrupting the employees of Costa from their private chat.

Huge wait at subway and I found burger king had airport prices. It was clean though

Very quiet when I visited. No queues at any of the food outlets. Very clean

Manager ruined this place by not allowing his night shift staff to accept fuel cards through night pay window, when I asked staff why rule is in place staff had no explanation and was complaining how they use to get punished by Manager for taking fuel card this way… Use to fill up truck 5 nights in a week, not supporting this kind of Manager behaviour and taking my business elsewhere.

Extortionate fuel prices, nothing special

Been here a few times now, this time was a bit dirty with leaves etc, could do with someone and one of those large brushes to keep it clean, busy as always and same with the food

Convenient services with Starbucks WH Smith’s and Waitrose. Everything I need!

Much needed recent upgrades to the toilets here has made our regular visits when head to the west country, more enjoyable but sadly those that want to cause disruption will do and soiled wc floors was not ideal on our last visit.

Very busy very popular good location for coach tours to stop off about 10 spaces close to building also good for Lorry’s they have multiple food outlets and even though extremely busy you won’t wait for too long great clean modern toilets excellent location for jumping back on route or is that en route 😄 worthy of a stop so you can refresh yourself

Not impressed by the over priced food and poor service.

A better MSA, not great or the best but better than many. Lighter and airy so you can almost but not quite relax!

Does what it says on can. Clean, can get food, drink and shop f snacks, sweets books etc. Toilets good too. Convenient for a quick rest to break journey

Only stopped quickly for something to eat nice place

Had a KFC it was awful, really really dry plus had no taste, didn't taste like KFC at all,

Could have been better if the escalators were working.

Like most motorway services, grossly overpriced

It's a Starbucks service station on the M42. The good: changing places and inclusive toilets (could do with more though). Fairly level access in from the car park. The bad: it's a Starbucks outlet so there's no choice. Either go to the Starbucks in the middle or one of the machines producing pretty much the same bland offerings. There are other franchises like Subway, Burger King and the like all selling their junk food. The ugly: Gridserve have taken accessible parking bays and turned them into inaccessible charging bays. There are other chargers including loads of Tesla (not open to all makes) around the site but the ones by the door should still be accessible. It's almost as though Gridserve think that disabled people don't need accessible bays or shouldn't drive EVs. I didn't see one wheelchair accessible charging bay at the whole site.

Modern, clean & all amenities you'd need

Very over price drinks and food

Perfectly adequate services with better than average toilets though the wait for a Burger King was agonising. I miss fast food being fast.

Driven up from London and stopped to get something to drink and finish off some work on the lap top. Stayed for two and half hours and now been fined £60 Will never use another Welcome Break if they are going to charge to park as well as sell me over priced food and drink!

I stopped here because a longer journey than planned made me need to pop in for a top up or fill up. The price of the E5 fuel was EYEWATERING. EXTRAORDINARY! Over 30p a litre more expensive than my planned stop. I was on vapours so I put two litres in and made it the next few miles to TESCO M42 J4. I can't give one star because they were there when I needed them but honestly what an absolute rip off of a captive audience.
