Roadchef Taunton Deane M5 Northbound in Taunton Deane

Pretty tired. Not much of anything there. Toilets discusting

Used these services for a quick stop. Toilets are clean.

Needs a bit of TLC but it is what it is

Everything I wanted in a motorway services

Stopped for coffee. Soulless and no toilets in Costa.

Unstaffed and expensive!! Didn't consume!!

Parked overnight at Taunton Deane services North on 21/10/24. Just about to order a McDonald's meal & noticed a RAT Running around the kitchen. At no point did they close the kitchen & just carried on serving unsuspecting customers. Totally unacceptable!

Everywhere was clean and tidy. All staff were nice. Maccies was fresh and tasted amazing.

Great place to stop for food and use facilities

Flying visit but loos were clean well lit and odour free . Shops pricy but well stocked .

Great place to stop for food and drink

Dirty! Flies in the toilets and McDonald’s area (indoors), could understand if there were flies getting in in summer but it’s October. Baby change table is gross, not cleaned in the hinges and it smells of urine! Toilets were filthy

Over powering smell of urine in the main building.

A great motorway service station

Had a great coffee here staff were very friendly and helpful

Avoid keep driving unless you need the loo

Amenities very useful driving back to wales from Cornwall great place to rest

Adequate!? Good electric charging points that work! Just plug in, swipe card and go to eat! Gridserve come up trumps again!

Very poor food choice . Only a McDonalds inside and a coffee chain outside. Not everyone wants Burgers and Coffee. Definitely one to drive straight by next time

Busy MSA, staff are friendly, and there is the bonus of the Cornish Bakery selling nice coffee and pasties. Really friendly people manning the stall, and there were at pains to warn me that my cheese and onion pasty had just come out of the oven, and it would be very hot... it was! However, the toilets were a mess, with one member of staff fighting against a rising tide of detritus! It had the feel of somewhere that had been suffering from a lack of maintenance for a while. Other outlets available are Costa, McDonalds, and W H Smith... with a Costa drive-through available as well.

Ideal toilet stop and maybe a.meal nice and clean

Managed to find a place to park. Was able to walk the fogs and find somewhere to sit whilst having a drink and something to eat

This is our usual family stop over. Maybe it was the time of day on arrival. Car park was full, especially the disabled parking, it makes it hard to sort out wheelchairs etc from just a normal car parking slot. The amenities clean and tidy and a good choice of vendors on site

Always clean and tidy. Can always park easily with a caravan

Good car park and typical motorway service station facilities...fuel was very expensive.

Excellent 👌🏼 2hrs FREE Parking 🅿️ Nice 👌🏼 Stop 🛑 For Resting 😌 & Eating 🍽️

Finest McDonald's french Fry's I've tasted in a very long time.

Drove in at 7am on Thursday 12th sept with the aim of having a McDonald’s breakfast, walk into building to see the McDonald’s entrance has been taped off but all the staff stood looking out, upon further looking it looks like they had set up a course for customers too navigate there way through to place your order (which at 7am is stupid because there was only 4 customers at the time) couldn’t be bothered to play the game of the McDonald’s staff so went to the garage and had a bacon butty and a Costa from there. I understand at busy times of the day they may have to control the thousands of hungry and thirsty punters but at 7am nah, take away the tape early mornings we ain’t all sheep

Made a short stop here on a long coach journey from Cornwall. This is a small services, but it has a large parking area with plenty of spaces, and you get two hours free parking. The ladies toilets were adequately clean, but a few of them were out of order. Not a lot of food options when we visited either. There's a large McDonald's and a W H Smith inside the main building, and also a spacious picnic area with a row of food kiosks - Chozen Noodle, Jacket Spud, Cornish Bakery - that would have offered more choice, but they were closed. Managed to get a decent caramel latte at the Costa Coffee, which had a comfortable seating area and friendly staff. Overall not the best services we could have stopped at, but okay for a quick coffee/comfort stop.

Much better than Exeter services

This services feels tired and in need of a refresh. Middle of a Saturday and most options/kiosks were closed. Is ok if you want costs or Mc Ds

4.5 Whether it's north east or south west one on the opposite side they're both very decent have more than the basics than what you need and it's a good place to let a dog out for a quick walk and to do their stuff plenty of parking as well

The most I can say is it's crowded they had paths and trails for nice walks just over all wasn't the best

North bound The food areas clean and lady in WH Smith very helpful The grounds are nice for stretching legs . However the toilets where discussing We always stop at this services and never seen it like this

Don’t recall anything good or bad about this services

Well worth stopping if you're passing.

Absolutely disgusting services Filthy, the staff in McDonalds haven’t got a care in the world, no pressure at all, yabbiting is obviously more important than clearing the customer queue. I thought I was coming to a welcome break, not a stressful break. I’ll by pass it next time. Edited: oh then went in to Costa on the same site & nearly got robbed Asked for 1 medium hot chocolate & a large, so I got 2 medium, joke

Same as every other service's. Did notice that none of the electric car chargers were working. Thank god for petrol and diesel

Toilets are very very dirty and smelly. I would avoid these services.

Toliets in the service station had all of the sanitary bins overflowing in nearly every toliet and then there are banner up about teenagers starting there periods doesn't show them a good impression

Really pleased with the services

If you don't need to stop here, would avoid. McDonald's is the only indoor eatery. £5 packet sandwiches from WHSmith next door the main other option. There are stalls outside but most were closed.

Good experience overall. They have a microwave in the baby food prep area which took my attention :)

Dogs allowed inside and staff offered biscuits to them. Bins all overflowing around the site.

Like this services.. Not masses of options but slightly less commercial amd manic than some services

Stopped for much needed break, fortunately I did bring fruit and yogurt as nowhere catered for GF I didn't mind to much not many places do, guy in Costa very helpful and cheerful, it was an exceptionally busy day and all the staff must have been overwhelmed,

Clean, tidy and good toilet facilities on the way home

Very nice place to stop after a long journey, clean, friendly staff and good facilities

Excellent stop off on our way home, clean site, pasties!! And friendly staff, would stop here again!

Place you needed to stop. Dont make any other stop, just route it here. Keep your pee and hold it tight till you get here because the facilities are above standards. I wish this is not in the middle of the forest so I can always bring my kids here. 😍

Stopped on way back from day trip to south west as did southbound on way there. Impressed with the changes from long ago I called in and again, everything is great for passengers. Clean, tidy and friendly staff.. Well done

Easy in and out access to the car park, Costa coffee and the usual fast food places. Clean and tidy, a welcome pit stop if needed!

Always very busy and facilities are not cleaned enough.

Nice place to visit and very friendly place and it was very clean

It's the worst and dirtiest service ever.

10am on a Sunday morning and toilets were disgusting. There was an overflowing skip in the carpark with rubbish everywhere. Don’t stop here unless you’re desperate

Great stop off with parking, clean toilets and a range of food.

Fantastic services for caravans. Great space and well planned out.

Sunday 4th morning arrived at services 08.30. Ladies toilets very dirty. We struggled to find one clean enough to use.

Clean & tidy. Great caravan parking lanes.

Toilets could do with more attention, services about average, parking is a bit cramped

Nice service station. But.l caught a bus loads of Black tourist Pissing in the Trees where we had just seen a Thrush and a Mole. I told them off. I was given a loads of valguar abuse. Not Services fault. Just Overseas visitors with No Respect

I've reduced my original score as I spent an hour surrounded by staff with blowers cleaning everywhere. I ended up covered in dust, dog hair, and generally bits from the ground. The two operators, not only using noisy, stinking of fuel machines around the busy areas, wore no eye protection, gloves, or ear defenders.

One of the worst services I’ve been in

Good services. Clean toilets. Good choice of food outlets.

For a small services it was great. Plenty of parking, clean and tidy. Great choice of food outlets, lovely outside seating area, under trees if you wanted

Get your pasties from the Cornish Bakery in the outside unit. Delicious! Traditional and even the Vegan cauliflower and onion bhaji one are superb

Stopped at McDs on the way home from Cornwall. Quick service even though busy

Absolutely love this dina, American music, brill, you must go and eat there, lovely jubbley x

There's a great pasty shop here

Enjoyed a good cup of coffee plus a cake

Motorway services with Costa and WHSmith. Lots of parking, indoor and outdoor seating, petrol station and EV charging. Quite clean and tidy.

Very clean and lovely staff. Plenty of parking and easy to use

We stopped here during a coach trip, this place has various shops inside and places to eat. The staff were friendly and helpful

Everything you would expect from a motorway service station!

Loos are near the door and not a route march away like at the southbound services here.

Great service has all the normal stuff

Absolutely filthy, then ordering at places there was like a 40 minute wait

Loo’s were clean, that’s about all I can say as that was why we stopped there.

This post is not about the services of Roadchef Taunton... but about the kindness and humanity shown to my wife and I, after I was taken ill returning from Cornwall. On finding out that I was unwell, the manager Jay, Liza and staff gave me every care and reassurance, comforting my wife and making sure my car was safe with no penalties until it could be collected. Going the extra mile, the manager Jay transported us to hospital, not going until he was sure I was being attended to....Thank you so much, all the angels are not in heaven. David xx

Costa, McDonalds, toilets... I guess what more could you want?

Where are the chargers. 1 to share Northbound and Southbound. What a joke

Plenty of options for food and drink

Clean , OK like all services overpriced

Absolutely dirty smelly toilets

Quick visit for lunch and toilet. Super busy and long queues for a small place

Not as cool as the South bound but good enough. Got a Macdonalds, Costa, pasty place, plus all the usual places.

Convenient services with a large car park and an area for dog walking - good services.

Busy place ..visited Mcdonald in there who new food could be so cold

Mc Donalds opposite that wasn't any better

Average better service than south bound distinct lack of staff

McDonald's was absolute chaos wasn't that busy when we arrived took over 1/2hour for two brk rolls Costa on the other hand was excellent 2 of us went and got brk there and was served straight away. And had eaten our food by the time McDonald's was served.

Potholes need filling in services is alright

Easy access plenty of choice quick service and polite staff

A busy services on a main holiday route, the buildings were clean and tidy with staff regularly emptying the bins. I visited the McDonald's franchise which was exceptionally busy with queues just to order food from the screens, after about 5 minutes I was able to place my order, I then waited for about 10 minutes and my food was ready to collect. We sat outside in the sun and although close to the motorway the road noise was not intrusive due to hedges separating us from the motorway. There's electric charging points in the car park and a fuel station although the prices are carrying approximately 20p per litre premium to normal fuel costs.

They have a McDonald's ! amongst other food places, easy parking, but it was evening. I would recommend this for a motorway stop.

Food very good .. very clean toilets

Very clean and tidy. Enough toilets and clean

Good services .Good choice of food outlets

Great Costa coffee made by a lady named Lucy. Staff were polite, especially a lady named Natasha. Went out of her way to help an elderly lady to her table. Great service
