    Got to be Tebay on the M6 in Cumbria.
    Not the cheapest but one of the best.

    There is another one down near Gloucester on the M5 which is just as good / not cheap!

    Was just going to say the same, Tebay, and Gloucester are the best.

    There's plenty of choices for worst.

    That's a real shocker. Went to Tebay once for Sunday Lunch as we don't live far off, over rated by a country mile but the butchers section looked good.

    Use them for a wee and nothing else.
    If a long journey I take sandwiches and a flask and fill the tank before leaving . No way I’ll pay their extortionate money grabbing prices.

    Another vote for Tebay as best.

    Close to home but Washington Services are lifting and have to be among the worst.
