Well we visited this truck stop a few times for breakfast and evening meals, the food was out pretty quick and delicious I am an ex trucked but never visited here sadly before, I would definitely recommend the food here whether travelling by lorry or car the staff are friendly although not being Scottish myself had a bit of trouble so sorry Danielle especially, but next time I’m up that way I’ll certainly pass by for food.

Dishy Debbie served us with great banter and a lovely smile , probably one of the finest juggernaut breakfast I’ve ever had ! We pulled in there following a recommendation and were bowled over ! Dishy recommended the fish and chips ( fresh fish daily ) which we re definitely going to try on our way back to Manchester from Aviemore in our Motorhome Fantastic place All the best Mick & Wenda Ps it’ll be Monday or Tuesday 🙄😂

Parked for the night in my truck quiet as usual. Woke up next morning for my shower which were clean and tidy as normal. Back to my truck to a flat battery. 6 hrs later still waiting to go. Breakfast was top notch...But best of all the staff here have been absolutely amazing and looked after me cos the central locking on my truck won't open due to batteries being dead. You'll be hard pushed to find a more helpful and accommodating truck stop 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆

To start with ran out of fuel in pumps food was horrendous, unedibal gammon steak obv cooked cold straight fro fridge was chewing an elastic band. Well over priced being charged more than a high street restaurant. Customer service was a joke parking attendant needs to stop asking drivers to park in dangerous positions on the truck park. More general public there than truckers. Will avoid in future and drive the extra few miles to junction 17.

My family are regular visitors to the truck stop as route 74 is known locally and have always loved the food. Today was such a let down. Standard of food has very much slipped, tasteless and I would guess frozen and reheated. The service front of house remains high but theres an obvious change in the kitchen. What a shame as has always been popular amongst us locals.

Where do I start? The Staff are very friendly, Helpful and polite. I stopped here for the first time three weeks ago since then many of my colleagues have stopped here on recommendation and I am back for another 45hr break.Food: The Food (not just breakfast) is first class and I mean FIRST CLASS. Reasonably priced and plenty of choice. Where else in the UK can you say that a truck stop serves proper Scottish Beefsteak Beefburgers, Steak or delicious Scottish lamb? (Btw I'm from the south of England)Facilities: The toilets and showers are the cleanest you'd find in any truck stop, if it's not then blame the guy/woman who used it before you as staff are on the ball. Route74 has a great Shop selling truck accessories and food provisions not many though as there is a supermarket across the road. Which is very handy indeed. The truck stop also offers car washing and truck washing at great prices. Truthly I cannot fault this place, they have separate yard for refrigerated trucks so everyone gets a decent nights sleep and in these unprecedented COVID-19 times they Are open with social distancing measures in place and plenty of hand sanitizer.StageTruck Driver Jay.

Son I looking for a breakfast before takling the Motorway South.Plenty of parking for cars away drom the trucks, it has a restaurand and a shop.The restaurant in large, bright and airey. The staff were friendly and helpful, we quickly ordered and tok our drinks to a table. Th place was spotless.Our food soon followed and was just what was needed, we had the 6 Wheeler Breakfast, which was amazing, well cooked and looked great. It tasted even better, plenty for even my ranenous son.The Lunch / Dinner caught my son's eye and he is insisting that we drop in on our way back to check out the Steak pie.We might just do that, great value and great food.

Never had a bad meal here and always leave feeling I've had a good feed. Think I've tried most things on the menu from an amazing prawn salad (only salad I've eaten feeling full at the end of it) to a lovely steak pie, there have been no complaints from any member of the family. Everything tastes fresh and there is an extremely quick service from the staff and kitchen.

Haggis and black pudding was cloying and tasteless. Bacon was fatty. Eggs were overcooked. Tomato was tasteless. The sausages were quite nice. I did like the tea and toast though.

popped in recently for lunch but had to wait 10 minutes as they were still on the breakfast menu until 12 midday !! okay no problem sat and read the paper for ten minutes .finally up to order steak pie ,chips and beans .no chips as they are locked in the fridge and cant get it open ! really ?? reluctantly ask for steak pie mash and beans but 10 mins later get steak pie mash and veg .the pastry that obviously gets microwaved and added at the end was tasteless and cold .it was noticeable that the diner was almost empty ,certainly not maintained the higher standards of when it opened .the place seemed to be run by kids ,no one about to speak to and no one asked if the meal was ok .another thing that bugs me is that certain meals are priced differently for the truckers than for general public ? how can this be fair ,legal ??

I live locally and often drop in for coffee, roll and bacon and a cake. Always made to feel welcome with very pleasant waitresses and nice cheerful and clean surroundings. Have never heard anyone who has visited the Truckstop voicing any complaints apart from portions being very large. I would never hesitate to encourage anyone whether alone or with family and friends to pay a visit here and enjoy a lovely meal. Any 'truckers' I have spoken to while there have all been very happy to stop here and also to recommend it to there fellow drivers. They all agree the all facilities are of a high standard.

I have stopped here for breakfast a couple of times, each time I have ordered the 4 Wheeler breakfast and each time I’ve had a completely different meal put in front of me. There seams to be no consistency in the kitchen. Today I was told by the waitress our toast would be right out, we had both finished our meal and had to go up to ask for our toast! Didn’t enjoy it as much as we had already finished the rest of the meal but we had payed for it.

Stopped here again last night and again I was impressed. The staff were all friendly with natural smiles all around. The parking was interesting as I arrived at 19.00hrs but they squeezed me in. Next time I will ring in to book a space, as there was some conned off for those smart enough to book. Snap is taken and the fuel was easily accessible. The food was good and the restaurant was clean and tidy. My only niggle here and I have mentioned it personally to the site on each of my previous visits is the lack of a cold water tap on any of the sinks, they are all lovely hot water, but I don't enjoy cleaning my teeth in hot water which is not drinking water and therefore may carry anything! There is cold taps in the shower rooms but with the amount of truckers parked up it's not always possible to get into them without a long wait. So I purchased a bottle of water from the shop and used that. Ok that's my niggle off my chest!On my next trek north I will do my best to ensure I can get here for the night. Big thanks to the staff which really mates the visit great.

As a long serving trucker of 30+ years I've seen the good and the bad side of the coin where truck stops are concerned I've paid through the nose to stop in urine smelling service stations car parks I've had to use dirty filthy showers. Eaten in unhygienic restaurants and dealt with obnoxious rude staff.......Route 74 truckstop is none of the above the place is spotlessly clean the food is amazing the staff are friendly and helpful the whole place is 10 notches above everyone else the only downside is the car park is not the biggest in the world and because route 74 if so popular with Truckers you need to get there early if you need to stop for the night will definitely be using again when I'm passing through

Having just had my car washed in the tended facilities here(fantastic job by the way!), I thought I'd just park up and have some lunch. I'm so glad I did as it was the nicest visit to a truck stop I've ever had. It's cleanliness is apparent from the moment you walk through the door and continues throughout. There is an excellent choice of food for every time of the day too! My Order of a cheese, bacon & Onion toastie, slice of cake and a tea was taken by a polite but enthusiastic young lady, I was given a large mug of tea and told to go and sit down and they'd bring the food out to me. There isn't really much you can do with a toastie to make it "outstanding", but this sandwich was as good as it possibly could have been. Thinly sliced red onion, well done bacon and proper cheddar cheese all hot and melty in well toasted bread, it was pretty damn tasty! The slice of cake was huge and I struggled to finish it...but I managed All of the above set me back approx £7. Fantastic value! Given the standard of this place, I would think nothing of bringing customers here for a bit to eat and to talk business

This is an excellent value for money stop. If you are looking for 5 star gourmet cooking, then not here. The food is excellent and very reasonably priced. My only bug bear, were the disabled loos. I had no problem that they were kept locked, but that the Kelly was in the shop at the other end. The staff were excellent in getting the key for me. But I felt the owners were missing g a trick. If the key was kept in the cafe. I'm sure they co uhh let make more sales. All it needs, on return of the key is a general enquiry from the staff about a tea or coffee or something to eat. Sales gone missing....

Very nice decor inside, spotlessly clean. Efficient, friendly staff. We went up for the Sunday carvery after recommendations from neighbours. Compared to a Toby carvery or similar it's not great value. We went in about 1.15pm and the veg was all getting to the mushy stage. Maybe if you went in as the carvery starts it would be nicer. OK meal, another time I'd have something from their regular menu that's cooked to order. Good choice of drinks, the milkshakes look fab (cream and sprinkles on top!).

Unfortunately on this occasion we couldnt enjoy our meal at all the place was absolutely swarming with flies/blue bottles...absolutely disgusting...landing on our food, table and our drinks...one of the waitresses had the cheek to say its terrible...they really need to address this as its a health hazzard...noticed a count of 16 on the wall menu when we were up ordering our food...should have left then...very off putting.

I live locally and prior to this always enjoyed my visits. I happened to be at the pay point asking for something when I looked through the window to the kitchen and saw a member of staff dipping their finger in a ramekin of white sauce, saying something like "mm thats nice/good - I was lip reading, and putting the ramekin on a shelf. On closer inspection the shelf was actually the "pass" and the ramekin was on my plate of wedges and contained my garlic mayonnaise I of course complained right away and the girl - I wont name her" denied doing it. I took my complaint to the complex manager and the member of staff who took my complaint advised us that the guilty member of staff had changed their story and that there was something on top of the sauce and they were not sure what it was. They then used their finger to remove said item. No reason was given as to why the offending item was then eaten and why did the member of staff have 2 story's if in fact what she was doing was legitimate. In addition, if there is a foreign object in a sauce would you not either replace the sauce or remove the object with a spoon. I was given an apology and a refund. It was also said when I initially made the complaint that I could still have the macaroni? I mean are you kidding me, having seen first hand the above. I can stand poor service and on occasion I have went back to a retailer when service has been poor but the subsequent complaint was dealt with efficiently. But this is on a whole new level of poor and I hesitate to think where the member of staff's hands have been before they dipped my sauce. Just a manky clarty incident. I will not eat here again. Please bear in mind my hunger at this point. I had not had a meal for over 27 hours and was ravenous when I placed my order. Thats how bad this incident made me feel.

Yes, clean facilities and friendly staff...but...as a tamper (hgv) it is annoying when it clearly states on entrance to hgv park, that fridges should use park no.2? As the majority of fridge drivers don't have the common courtesy of using it, preferring to inflict the noise on people trying to sleep instead.Why don't staff at Route 74 enforce this written policy?

Not really impressed. £15 to park up. £23.50 with a meal and shower voucher. Food adequate. Frozen chips frozen veg. Could do better. Not value for money. However, it's clean. Can't say any better than that. Maybe they should let truck drivers go to the front of the queue of non tachograph dependant customers. Just saying.

Came here with friends as it was open late and local. Was extremely impressed. Great choice of food, very reasonable prices, easy to get to from M74. It's a new building and it's very modern, spacious and clean. It's not fine dining but it's great, everyday food in a friendly environment. The staff were very friendly and efficient also. And for a truck stop/diner they even had a selection of decaff coffees, was very impressed with this. They have WiFi also. Worth a visit..

For a motorway service area or a local restaurant this is great value. Warm welcome and friendly service, good range of food at a realistic price. Well worth a visit

Went there with a bit of trepidation expecting the usual greasy spoon. Pleasantly surprised. Very clean and nicely decorated. Good food and prices. If you're ever passing on the m74 it's well worth stopping off for a bite to eat rather than the usual motorway services. Can't comment on ladies toilets but the gents was very clean. Nice little shop as well. Would definitely recommend.

Open to the public.Basic food, served fast and friendly.Good breakfast and reasonably priced.Clean surroundings. Nothing fancy but you are aware of that,after all it is a truckstop.

We stopped here for lunch, both had steak pie and chips + vegs and coffee.Chips and coffee were good, vegs tired and much overcooked. But the steak pie was quite unpleasant. It was much too salty and tasted of MSG. I was very hungry and just about finished mine but my companion left half of hers.We will find another place to eat next time we travel south on the M74 from Glasgow.

Heard a lot of conflicting reviews about the Truckstop so decided to try it out for myself. Really fast service and the girls were really nice,prices were very reasonable, place was clean and bright, but the food offer let them down. Ordered a roll and sausage and my friend had fish and chips which was ok but most definately not fresh, fresh frozen maybe. I could not finish my roll as the middle of the sausage was an umcompromising shade of pink. It is what it is, a truckstop but they need to up their game if they want to serve the general public also.

Been here a few times for dinner when we cant be bothered cooking or getting a carryout, the food is good and reasonably priced! Went with a table of 6 and it was just over £50! Really clean and well presented inside and the staff are really helpful and their if you need them. Would recommend if you are passing by or looking for somewhere to go and is licsted right off the m74 north bound

Despite being local to The Lee Burn, I'd never been before, until it was recommended to me by a couple of friends, so I thought I'd pop in on the route home from work for a quick pint. The Lee Burn has a pleasantly cosy and relaxing atmosphere and the staff are incredibly welcoming and expertly balance friendliness and professionalism, which other places in the area could take notes from The Lee Burn. Honesty can't fault it for where it is! Even though I'd only popped in, I definitely wanted to stay longer, which is probably the best compliment I can give. I'm usually the first one to want to go home and be in my safe space, but The Lee Burn is just that relaxing! Will be back in the near future :)

Staff are either ignorant or incompetent or both. having dined here before a few times my wife and I stopped in for lunch as walk-ins. I entered and asked for a table for 2, the lady behind the bar made a show of the checking availability on the iPad, many tables were reserved so we guessed that we might be unlucky. "Sorry, we have nothing available", "okay no problem" Her colleague then, right in front of me picked up the bookings iPad and addressed the couple behind me, who also didn't have a reservation. "Oh, you're in luck, we have one table left". As i said a mix of ignorance and incompetence We won't be returning!
