You can't go wrong with Tebay Services. The view is outstanding. Burger King,Mcdonalds &KFC charge a small fortune. Atleast you get fresh ingredients in a nice clean restaurant served by people who want to be there. Not angry teenagers making some corporation £Bs.

If it's local and ethically sourced I'm sure it's a reflection of real costs. I would rather have a supply chain with way more local suppliers and far fewer multinational firms churning processed food through massive factories....

I have stopped at the Gloucester Tebay services. I can't remember how much the breakfast cost, I do remember how good quality the food was. From someone who drives an electric car I was surprised by your condescending attitude to the "green" roof. Personally I would rather eat here than have a soggy tasteless Mcdonalds.

Pie and chips costs at least that much and often more in most pubs. That said, I wouldn't have thought that the price of their meat and groceries would attract enough customers to maintain viability but, presumably, it does. I have visited their Gloucester services on a few occasions and I have found it to be a far more pleasurable atmospheric experience and refreshing alternative to the mini shopping malls of globally recognisable fast food and coffee shop outlets that now infest our motorway network as well as everywhere else. These aren't particularly cheap either and none offer anything requiring a table, a chair, a plate and some cutlery, let alone the pleasant surroundings complete with duck pond and some interesting architecture.

In a place called Glenderby in Perthshire, a local land owner decided to build a log cabin hotel calling it The Edelweiss Hotel. He subsequently built luxury chalets and sold them to people who either wanted a holiday home or to retire to. All had turf roofs just like their cousins in Sweden.

Crunchy Peanut butter MacMaster but with salad cream in a Sarnie, spot on:) Don't ask how it come about. As a kid Teabay was our favourite stop, Old man in Navy route to faslane for his boat. Teabay has changed since I last visited. Bearing in mind Teabay has own farm shop would you expect a pukka pie? Agree with you on weak gravy, Pie like that should be thick gravy that you have to lick of plate, just like Nana use to make, showing age now :) Chips well every service station goes for cheap option as in frozen, but would you pay extra for double or triple cooked chips? Question for you MacMaster as your a foodie like me. How about a vid on supermarket meat verses the Traditional local old school Butcher which is better, pay more or pay less? I think you will be surprised?

There is a third one about 20 miles south of Glasgow on the M74, Cairn Lodge. Breakfast can leave something to be desired I would agree, but generally I think the prices are reasonable considering the quality of what you get as compared to any where else in Motorway Service areas. A bit unjustified this criticism I think.

Yes Tebay is rather expensive. On a recent trip to Shap Abbey, we stopped for some chilli pork pies which were dear but delicious and we bought some lamb rolls which were minced lamb wrapped in pastry. I cooked them at Shap Abbey on the camping Gaz stove flipping them in a ridge monkey iron pan. They were delicious between some Lancashire bottom muffins. We got some dirty looks from the sheep though, probably because we ate their cousin Bryan. Fair comment about charge points and disability, as a disabled chap I have no such problems as the wife puts diesel in the car. Oh the range you can get in just 5 minutes. Loved the Dick Turpin gag, reminded me of growing up, it was one of dad;s favourite phrases. Keep up the good work.
