I know all about Motorways. Nobody likes them and nobody should expect a decent meal while travelling along them.
Songs, poetry and even novels have been written about the poor quality of Motorway service station food.
Bloody Kraftwerk altered their one hit song - it was going to be titled "Feeling Ill On the Autobahn".
E&DC is a rebadge. Euro styled Motorway Services Cafe unfortunately sited in the same glass windowed atrium with the standard peeling paint.
It would be lovely peering out these massive windows - if you did not have to look at traffic. The same traffic that made you get the hell off the motorway.
I ordered the full english. What English thing it was full of, I am still pondering. It was heavy inside of me and unfortunately stayed with me for the next 300 miles. For the price paid, the ingredients should have been top-notch. I have had really good British Breakfasts for 5 - 6 pounds, with unlimited teas and toast.
This was almost 9 pounds and had the worst variety of meats I have ever come across. The sausages were more bread than pork and the bacon was tasteless.
Have you ever eaten something and though "Oh My God, that was a serious mistake". So have I, but never at 10am. That thought is normally racing through my booze addled head outside of a kebab shop after midnight.
Never in the morning. Sober. While Having Breakfast. Never.
This place is in the category of "mistake".
If you see it, stay away.
Not too hard to do, you are already in a bloody car - on a motorway - going 70mph.
Pretty easy actually. read more
