Junction 12 Cafe in Stratford-on-Avon

Excellent day out with the family loads to see amazing car collection from the british history, would definitely recommend to others and will definitely be returning in the future!.

I was a vendor at a show being held there.

A great day out if you like cars. Nice coffee shop..great staff.

Great museum, and the Jaguar heritage centre 😍

Well worth a visit lots of vehicles would recommend a visit 😀

Excellent venue, brilliant selection of vehicles and spectacular cafe.

Please let Helna from the Cafe Staff know that she did an amazing job serving me food. Also her recommendation of a great Indian Restaurant in Coventry (Tiffin Box) was amazing for dinner. I will have to come back to thank her in person. Mr. Jeffrey Stark

Absolutely loved this museum and can not wait to visit again.

Huge collections of british cars, including some rere concept cars. A must visit!

Brought grandson here on his INSET day. It's over an hour's journey but well worth it, we'll definitely be back & he'll be bringing his mum & dad next time. Such a lot to see. I liked the way social history of the factories & wartime activities were presented. Someone who isn't a car buff can find plenty to interest them. The volunteers were great, so knowledgeable & explained things to 6 yr old (who is a car enthusiast) in an age appropriate way without being patronising. My husband (engineer & racing enthusiast) was in his element chatting to volunteers. A great day out with annual membership making it good value.

Not bad, but should be called 'the Birmingham motor museum' - there's hardly anything built outside the west Midlands on show. As Rolls Royce, Bentley, TVR etc are also British, this makes the museum look pretty biased.

Went to the British Motor Museum Oct 30. Had an excellent tour by volunteer Roger. He not only told us all about the cars in the museum, he was kind enough to show us his own car. Lots of Jaguars, Land Rovers and MGs. Super interesting even if you are not an expert. Ate lunch in the onsite cafe. Food was good and reasonably priced. Lunch was £10-15. We rode the train and bus from London which was an adventure for us.

Excellent museum and very informative.

Loved it! Staff friendly and passionate, but have a sense of humor!

Great place to visit loads to see, we had a guided tour around the Jaguar collection the guide accompanied by his black Labrador was extremely informative and interesting. Couldn't recommend it enough, brilliant!

Excellent museum for car lovers!

Ample parking and excellent site. State of the art toilets. Great displays and explanations. I would say that the 65 PB Cresta model would probably have had the 3.3 engine and not the earlier 2.6. We had one! Others could confirm this???. All beautiful cars.

Wow and wow again. If you like cars this is for you, if you don't like cars - go here and you soon will.

Stopped by on my way back from a weekend in Birmingham by simply seeing the sign on the motorway! So glad I did. I was amazed by the selection of vehicles on display, particularly the cars from the 1980’s. It was amazing to read about and see up close iconic first and last cars off the productive line including the Mini, the Metro and the Montego. Monday was a perfect day to go as I can imagine this place gets busy at the weekends. I also had a guided free 45 minute tour with Trevor who clearly knew his stuff and it was very enjoyable. The cafe food was also excellent and the staff were very pleasant. Highly recommended. 🚘

Of all the many car collections, motor museums or automotive things I've gone to over the decades, this is one of the absolute best I've gone to. Really nicely laid out, super accessible and lovely in the main building, and just so many cars in the newer secondary building. There's whole specific exhibits for motorsport, prototypes, TV cars and then whole rooms dedicated to Jaguars and Vauxhalls. If you love cars, this place will blow you away, and there's also so many volunteers who will give you in-depth special views of things on the cars if you're interested. Just a wonderful day out for a motor head.

First rate place with superb volunteer guides who give insights into the history of the exhibits. Pleasant cafe with a reasonably priced menu. Definitely worth a visit. Book online for reduced entry fee which covers unlimited visits for a year.

Best private dinners with the best staff

Really enjoyed our day out with my nephew.

Lovely experience, the place is full of history. Beautiful cars.

Great day out, large array of British cars, fantastic for a car fanatic

Launch of the new Vauxhall Grandland

Great place to visit and do much to see, be prepared to walk a long way. Lifts provided for people with disabilities. Our visit brought back some wonderful memories for us, highly recommended 😁

A museum on the scale of the history of the English automobile! Very large, spread over two buildings side by side, this museum brings together the vast majority of brands and models which have made the history and reputation of the English automobile industry. A must-have for those who love beautiful mechanics 👍. I would add that the staff, very welcoming, are always ready to help. A must!

If you love anything to do with cars/motorbikes this is worth a visit. Lots to look at and interact with. Almost all the vehicles are BL, Vauxhall, and Jaguar Land Rover. There is a cafe and plenty of restrooms.

The museum's extensive car collection is impressive, but it truly shines with its child-friendly activities; from mini cars for toddlers, to interactive challenges, drawing with car-headlight building, and a captivating science show, there's something for every kid. Thanks to my annual pass, I'll return to explore the car collection in more detail.

Good day out, lots to see, worth trying to catch the tour, very interesting.

Good pieces. A place to visit if you like cars.

I attended an event here. Good facilities at the venue plenty of

Great few hours in a well presented museum. Lots to do and see. Some very nice vehicles displayed.

Having been to Beaulieu and the Haynes museum I thought that another motor museum might not have much to offer but this one added yet another variety of interesting vehicles to look at.

Fantastic range of car, good information about the cars. We went during October half term and they had a free science activity workshop for the children. Good cafe offering gluten free food and reasonably priced. Well worth a visit, will return. Staff friendly too

Very interesting place, really well maintained and great facilities.

A very interesting & enjoyable trip

Good to see a wide variety of old and modern cars. I really enjoyed seeing all the old important Jags, especially the XJ220. Had the added bonus of having a model railway exhibition on when I visited.

Can you believe at a motor museum you cannot charge your vehicle?

Superb. Better than another Motor museum in the new forest we visited this year

Amazing place for car lovers. All the power of the British car industry in one place.

Absolutely love it, nice to see different age cars and history of different brands.

Free for CV LIFE Card holders. Good educational walk for kids

I want for their Model Railway Weekend which was fabulous, but all the cars and vehicles were there and if you are interested in Cars it is great

Went here for the Vauxhall grandland launch, while there visited the museum, many cars there you forgot about, and some you didn't even know about, worth a visit.

One day is not enough to see all vehicles they have.

Fantastic museum with a lot of really interesting and rare/unique cars. Also there was a classic car meet/show in the evening.

Excellent experience, many more exhibits and breadth of that content than expected

A surprisingly large and interesting collection of mostly British vehicles. Well worth spending a couple of hours here

Amazing collection of cars with some unique prototype models and end of production cars too.

Absolutely brilliant 👏 very interesting 👍 the vehicles are amazing 👏 😀

Great selection of british cars and history

Pulled in to get help with my sat nav as I was lost.

Interesting for different ages, lots of cars to see from through the ages. Our son was probably a bit too young however he did enjoy the little push along car he could sit in (for a short while until he wanted to run off) and the photo ops.

Well worth a visit. We were a little rushed today but having an annual pass means we can return and take our time. Good range of cars and knowledgeable staff.

Wow what a great collection, even my wife enjoyed here! Seriously this is a fantastic museum and I need to return to be able to take it in .well worth a visit

Great venue to visit with lots of interesting cars and prototypes that never went into production also many examples of how they are built and how engines work.

A great collection of British motoring, a tour was included and provided good information. Cafe was nice, providing very fresh food and a gluten free menu was available. Parking was good and easy. Communication was quick and friendly, meaning we were able to reserve a wheelchair prior to our visit. Would recommend visiting, especially those into cars and motoring

Fantastic place even better now with extra Jag and Warehouse ( upstairs) building.

Fantastic place 400 plus cars lots of jags and some ex royal cars there

Was a fu. Day ti reminisce on automotive themes and seek new inspiration for writing ✍️ poetry, prose and whatever knows.

Always a great day especially when an event is on too..the access is great

Conference venue with very good facilities and customer service.

Fantastic place for all ages and accessibility.

Excellent collection of British cars . Recommended

Went there for a work event. Good facilities, decent rooms.

Fantastic tour, really great walk through Motor history. Make sure you visit both of the buildings to ensure you don't miss out on the classic workshop. Great day out

Really fun experience and lots of history to the British car Manufacturers. As well seeing lots of concept cars and cars that were used in films

Everything was great, I was very impressed.

Very interesting and informative museum, nothing obvious for non English speakers. Junction 12 cafe nothing special expensive for the quality.

Amazing place showcasing some of the great and not so great cars through history, amazing staff there too to enhance your day

This is a review for the unfair booking system and not the motor museum itself. I mistakenly booked a couple of tickets for the British motor museum ( very far away from us) instead of the Beaulieu motor museum ( near us). Realising my mistake a few minutes later, I tried to get my transaction cancelled by contacting the museum but I was told the pay desk couldn’t do that. However, I would be able to ask for a refund by e- mailing admin as there was no one in admin at the w/e. A few days later, as no one answered my e-mail, I got through Tracy Biggs at admin who told me rather coldly there would be no refund as per terms and conditions. No empathy or even an apology for not reading /replying to my e-mail. Not very charitable for a charity!

If you've any interest in motoring history, this is the place to see it👍

Lots to see, very helpful staff. Very good layout.

Really enjoyed the history of British motoring. Particular interest was some cars used in James Bond sky fall. Also had the Aston Martin model, but not the goldfinger one. Also, Lady Penelope's Thunderbird Pink limo.

What a great day out. Easy to find, plenty of parking with disabled access. There's a great cafe and many exhibits to see, plus there's the Jaguar Heritage Centre on site too, so check this out also (separate building).

Nice premises and interesting selection of cars. Very large collection of Jaguars, so many in fact it is a bit overwhelming! You get free re-entry for a year after purchasing your first visit. Nice premises with plenty of room. Enthusiastic and friendly staff (volunteers?) Good activities. I visited the Hornby Model Railway exhibition which also allowed access to the cars. Easy access off the M40 or local roads and plenty of easy parking on site. Definitely to be recommended. But if you are in the area, I would also suggest visiting the Coventry Motor Museum as well, which I think is better themed. Oh, -- and the Midland's Air museum at Baggington. Since writing this review, Coventry Motor Museum has started charging for entry to people who are not Coventry rate payers. Sad, but still value for money.

Easy to reach off the motorway and easy - lots of it - hard standing parking

A very big museum with lots of cars at different ages, definitely worth visiting for the car lovers

Went on a Jaguar at Gaydon weekend. Good range of exhibits, a real good insight into British Motoring and a fair number of concept cars you won't see anywhere else. I booked in advance and if you do gift aid your ticket is valid for 12 months. Great value for money. Highly recommend.

Visited on the Rustival event. So had time to go round the museum too. Great volunteers, cafe busy but good food. Great atmosphere.

Brilliant lots of cars nice warm welcome as you walk in there a cafe at the top of it. A lift for people who need it many toilets which are clean and tidy also many disabled entry's and exits a free car park arts and crafts space for the children who can learn lots about cars a brilliant gift shop very suitable for school visits and lovely staff who will help you with anything

Amazing museum always lots to see

Lovely museum. A good collection. Perhaps could do with a few less ,so as to be able to display them a little better. As they seem a little crowded together on the upper level. But pleased our visit. We only paid once for entry twice in the year. So great value.. they have a full range of vehicles from early starting in the late 1800s all the way to modern concept cars . And jaguar collection.

Great collection ! impressive buildings. Re live the hay day of the British motor industry. Reminisce on those I have driven and those I dreamt of driving . Restaurant was presentable. A smile a mile. Well worth a visit .

Always a great day out and ticket lasts for one year as well so great value for money with repeat visits.

Beautiful museum, even if you're not an expert on cars you'll enjoy it. There's a 1hr guided tour. Make sure to get the annual pass that costs no more than the regular ticket

Excellent attraction. It would be good if you could develope a emergency services section it was great to see the old police cars

Visited for an engineering conference and venue was easy to access, good parking and good catering services.

It was a great experience, seeing some of the cars from my younger days, & looking at some of the prototypes

Absolutely fabulous visit today @ The Motor Museum at Gaydon, with superb facilities for all ages. Staff are exceptionally knowledgeable and charming. The real story of British motoring is brilliantly displayed and the cars are all beautifully exhibited and shine with pride. The accompanying photography helps to enhance both past and present automotive glory. My friend and I also enjoyed smashing refreshments in the cafe catering well for all diets with served to table hot food and all was delcous. The shop in Building One offers many quality products at very reasonable prices. Well worth a day out, the cars for toddlers are a delight as is the central glass lift. My favourite car upon this first visit has to be The Silver Shadow and easily followed by the Model T Ford with gleaming Gold plus 007's Aston Martin; or perhaps the MG GB GT? Give yourself a treat all indoors and plenty of nearby parking. The History of the Land Speed and Challenge Racing is a marvel.

Wonderful collection of British Cars. A well worth visit to the past when British Cars ruled the roads.

Great way to spend an afternoon. A good variety of vehicles on show.

Absolutely fantastic place, and a must visit with great looking cars, a brilliant day. Also highly recommend the food as well. Top quality at reasonable price.

Trust me take your own flask and food After a long 3 hour drive I was hungry - ordered bacon roll and a sausage and bacon roll - tea and a latte At first I didn’t mind paying the bill but then after I was given very small cups with literal warm liquid. We went and sat down and presented with 2 cold rolls - the bacon and sausage were cold. Just don’t bother

Very nice place with great parking and an interesting automotive collection to walk through and learn about, clean and tidy facility.

Late opening Fri Aug 16, love this idea. Possibly not very well advertised as extremely low attendance. Only found out by chance as ws already planning a visit.

Wheelchair accessible and accessible loos. You won't be able to get close to everything and sometimes cars are parked too close together to get a chair between them but otherwise it's pretty good. Plenty to see and you can easily spend a whole day here! If you're gluten free don't get excited by their celiac certified kitchen - the menu is very typical (soup, sandwiches, jacket potatoes). The do loaded fries but apparently the gluten free fryer wasn't working the day we went - which was odd as fries were literally the only fried thing on the menu and they were bringing out loads of loaded fries for non-celiacs...

Fantastic day lots to see and a fantastic cafe for lunch. Activities also for children.
