   The food portions are massive, it's extremely tasty, hot and freshly cooked, we didn't wait long, and it was 100% worth the price! The staff were friendly and attentive and even when I messaged them on fb they were fantastic at replying. My friend came in with his assistance dog without any issues and they even gave him a couple of sausages and lots of pets! The diner looks really cool and retro and I can't wait to come back, I know it's primarily a truckstop but it's worth visiting just for the food and I wish I knew about it years ago. The floors, tables, sides were all really clean as well.

   Came here for breakfast only as the facebook page showed some really nice looking food...ordered regular breakfasts and the big burger and was so disappointed. Start with the breakfasts the 1 egg we had on each plate was crispy round the edges and may well have been hard boiled as no yolk. 1 slice of toast which was burnt and buttered on the better side. Sausages are small but looked like it was cooked 3 times and very dry inside. Tinned toms which I normally love were cold. Bacon although salty was cooked nicely. Hashbrowns cooked in dirty oil - well taste like they have. The burger - yuck. Cheap burgers and the worst bit is you get 3 of them. 2 breakfasts, 1 burger and a coffee £36. Won't be returning sadly was looking for a new breakfast location. The best thing this place has going for it is the ladies serving were very polite and humorous just a shame we didn't enjoy the food on offer or the price for what we recieved. EDIT: Thank you for your recommendation on trying a new postcode - about 10 minutes along the A27 towards Chichester is the nicest, most welcoming, tastiest burger van we've ever tried. Cooked fresh while you wait and very reasonably priced. Thank you for advising us to try another postcode we will certainly be returning to them often. It's got nothing to do with being a greasy spoon at all that just shows your judgement towards new customers.

   Worst truck stop I've ever stayed at, everything ridiculously overpriced, £3 for a small bottle of Corona, £3.50 for a tasteless portion of chips that were soaked in fat. The WiFi connection was poor even inside the reception area. Showers only open at limited times. Can safely say i won't be visiting this place again.

   Based on staying one night in a campervan. But note it is a truckstop not a shiney campsite. Easily accessable from ferry what we used it for, 10 min drive. The site has a few potholes but where we where placed, nice and level on gravel. Quite night with no noise. 24hr security and 24hr access. Staff we meet where friendly and helpful. Also great breakfast in cafe. Would recommend and would use again

   On first impressions it may not look like a great place. HOWEVER the service from the people on site is excellent. The cafe was closed when we went in at 19-30 However the girls offered us a drink and told us we could order in food. Then the night security came on and was excellent again. Billy told about nearby pub, Chinese takeaway (provided a menu) etc. When we ordered the food he got us plates and cutlery and left us to it outside. After a day of work it is nice to be greeted with a friendly welcome and helpful gestures. Thanks all

   First time in about fifteen years, nice friendly welcome, plenty of regulars popping in for a quick brew and a chat. Don't complain about the yard, all the old cafes had rough parking and they were cracking places! Look at my other reviews to see where I've been!

   Nice place to park, no noisy fridges and the gentleman who greets you, watches you back carefully, polite & friendly. 24/7 toilets showers, microwave, kettle tea/coffee, sadly I didn't get to try the food as I went walking and got carried away but decor looks amazing inside the cafe. Hopefully get to park here again in the future.

   This is my 1st time here and for me it’s what every truck stop should be like. Good people working here and the food is very reasonable and tasty. Yes there’s pot holes and yes it’s not the Hilton but from a real drivers point of view it’s bloody spot on. Will be back again.
