Come here for bike night. Only a few of us semi busy

Food it very good and a good price And very friendly

Great place to stop for a bite to eat, I think it’s one of the last truck cafes that I’m aware of. Good food Good prices Good atmosphere Everyone is welcome 3 of us piped in there still a great place

I found it occasionally. Very convinient place for stop and lunch during my tramping driver travels. That Cafe has a history, like an own soul. Appreciate it. Tasty meal at affordable price. Very responsive personnel with an amazing sense of humor. Definitely will return.

Great old skool cafe. Good food and lovely staff.

Lovely cooked food, staff are very friendly and the service is quick. Highly recommended.

Spotless and food cooked fresh to order , delicious and will be back.

Very friendly and polite and good value for money. A small filter coffee cost me £1.50.

We stopped for a cuppa and lunch. Service was great, friendly staff! Food came quick and hot, good prices.

Very reasonably priced for the area. Plenty of parking on both sides of road.

Pukka little cafe. Food always top notch and great value for money. Staff friendly what more do you want 5*

Just as a roadside dinner should be

Fair priced for a truckers cafe food was tasty my bacon sandwich was

Great place love bikers night on Wednesdays from 5 pm - 10pm

Fast friendly service, lovely food

Just started going back in here, lovely breakfast, very good prices, value for money. Always a nice relaxed friendly atmosphere.

Lovely people, great service, excellent prices. Roaring, open fire when it's cold.

Nenormālākā netīrība blakus- piedirsts un piecūkots! 😕

Very good value for money. It's a good place. Give it a try.

Just off watling Street below A2. Cafe has been there for years ample parking. Food is first class coffee really good very warm and friendly atmosphere. Staff brilliant and friendly facilities are OK. Very clean and tidy. Opens 8am until 2pm give it a go

Lovely brekkie nice to go back there after a while

Best bubble I've ever had it'd a real truckers fry up 10/10

Lovely food , reasonably priced and good variety , helpful staff

It's not been too good over the last few years but she's been taken over by the owners back to its normal good self

I drive past it a lot. Don't use it though. I would imagine the horrendous roadworks around here are hitting them hard. The HGVs used to be able to park and sleep on the road outside and have breakfast etc. Sooner these roadworks are finished all traffic will be able to get from a to b as normal. Everyone is affected at the moment. It's a huge nuisance.

Цены хорошие. Еда вкусная. Сейчас в доль дороги не встанешь на грузовике. Ремонт идет.

Closed only open 8am till 2pm should open linger could make a killing as plenty of truck parking opposite cafe in laybye

Good stop off, friendly staff good atmosphere, clean and well priced, food was good and quick. 👍🏽

Prima en heel lekkere koffie toffe mensen

Nice breakfast at the right price . Nice friendly staff

Very, very good, thank you for everything!

Wasn’t open and no place to park

Супер, режут тенты вдоль дороги.

All good had some updates done reasonably priced

Good food, friendly staff, reasonable prices.

Можна стоять паузу. Туалет еще был бы, нормально.

Only use the layby for a quick break, and the few times I have used the cafe in the past, iy always needs a good clean it's filthy

As someone else put it, not a place to take the missus for a nice romantic meal, it's a truckers/builders cafe. The lay by outside was full but empty in the cafe. Use it or loose it!

It's ok but it's not as good as it used to be 10 years ago

Excellent food and very well priced always an excellent service and very friendly staff

Miejsce do zaparkowania ciężarówka jest ale na 99 % będzie plandeka pocięta

good food n staff very helpful.

Just had a break here does get busy. Not bad food I had cheese burger and chips good value food

Average, good prices worth a try.

Cienko. Mały wybór dań, przede wszystkim śniadania. Parking dość długą lejba na poboczu. Wystrój nie przypomina niczego sensownego. Kilka stolików kilkanaście krzeseł.

1st visit to this cafe, 3 of us had a lovely lunch, good quality food and presentation. Staff nice and friendly. Would defo go again.

Simple and clean with a good parking, food not bad.

Staff friendly,food good and cheaply priced

Great treat great food and friendly staff

No idea I was working down there and met outside at midnight. So you will have to ignore 1 star rating

Ok l do not like cook and kids handing

Great breakfast at the right price. Friendly staff

I wouldn't recommend bringing your wife here for a romantic meal, as it's just a truckers cafe! the toilets are pretty poor and it's changed hands more times than i can remember in the past couple of years..the car park is extremely uneven it's a shame because I'm sure this was once a great cafe it just needs a bit of investment..

Great food and service reasonably price .

Under original management Terry &Julie great food and great service

Nice food and welcoming service

Amazing venue for private parties. Used to be a truckers cafe but now closed. Does occasional parties. It is out of the way so no noise issues. We had a great live band playing until midnight with a DO as well. They can cater or you can do it yourself. Really nice and friendly hosts and allowed us to have what we wanted. Thanks very much - awesome night.

Very nice food well presented and not too expensive will definitely will visit again

Great little place. Good food. Great staff.

Great place for a bite to eat. Staff are very friendly and the breakfast baguette really hits the spot.

Much nicer than it used to be. Clean cafe and nice staff

Fantastic evening here. Had meals too always lovely.

Good grub friendly staff will definitely call in again

Very clean and nicely presented place. And really good food. Advise be hungry when you go there because portion sizes will really fill you up.
