Really friendly and attentive service and the food was of very high quality. Pretty much what you…read morewould expect from an American diner, burgers, chicken, milkshakes, fries etc. I had a peppermint tea (£2) and got a massive pot of hot water, with separate teabag, which made me at least 3 cups of tea! We were a group of 4, had no starters, the boys had 2 milkshakes, 4 main courses and 2 deserts it came to an average of £19 per head, which probably is average.

Hucks grill and bar…read more It was utterly tremendous. The food was at the utmost prestiege and the the service was just plain exemplary. From the food to the service to the soft play and computers to entertain the youngens it was a night to remember. The food had what every child desires which a buffet of nuggets, hotdogs ect... Not to add to the adult menu which was delicous(the food not the literal menu) the food was creative and gave a samantic field of like it was just who and the food and it was lome you were staring at with a mighty gaze just waiting to dive on in and eat it all up because boy it was scrumpous. The desert on the other hand was utterly and completely divine, they mastered freindly and warming service and the only thing they could possibly add was air conditioning in the soft play so the children you ran around untill they were dizzy and their feet were raw. Thankyou and goodbye

It's so much better than the other options at motorway service stations - you know who I'm talking about . I had pancakes and coffee. The coffee was amazing. So many places burn their coffee so all you taste is burnt beans. I drink mine black so it was nice to actually taste the roasted beans for once - and it was unlimited too :)))))))))) This is definitely a good spot to grab some grub and refuel (both your stomach and car) before heading back onto the road again. Enjoy :)

Good service, and the fact that they operate a 20% discount for emergency services and armed forces is always nice. The milkshake here are rather pricey (£4-£5 range) they are made with real ice cream and are well worth the money and I recommend you give them a shot. Possibly the only restaurant for miles that sells Root Beer...my absolute favourite!

By far my favourite aspect about Alabama's is that it's not trying too hard to be 'American Style'…read moreit doesn't feel like one of the bandwagon American burger or hot dog joints popping up all over the city. It's just casually American or you could say it has a more intelligent nod to Americana in it's decor and attitude but maintain's a Northern attitude. Like the straight out of Mad Men 1960s Piccadilly Station print on the wall, the wooden star clock on the opposite wall or the red light shades. We went for breakfast and the selection was familiar but pleasantly different. With selections of classic breakfasts which could be Americanised with Texas toast for e.g. (I didn't see any grits which I'd love to see their take on). I had the Eggs Benedict with Ham Hock, it's one of those dishes which is a great judge of a place as it only has a few ingredients any one of which can disappoint. Alabama's was spot on. In fact I'm thinking that the ham hock possibly works better than streak bacon which I hate myself for saying, but it's less salty and gives it a more rustic homey feel. Which I really enjoyed. I love my coffee and I can say their flat white was spot on for me. The staff seem great here as well, very welcoming and friendly, offering to give suggestions or anwser any questions about the food. There aren't a huge number of places even in the city centre where I can guarantee a good breakfast and a great coffee in the same spot. I'm glad to have found another to add to my list.

Last time I visited it took longer than that so the staff happily gave us free lunch vouchers for next time.

Sides included skinny chips, thick chips, simple salad, and coleslaw. Definitely would come back!

Anyone in hospitality will tell you that when you take a drinks order, you serve the drinks. You…read moredon't wait for food to be ready, you don't wait for August. You just serve the drinks. Ten minutes later, comes the beer. That needs a fixin. Now, a burger is a kind of sandwich. A sandwich is something you can pick up with one hand and eat while reading a map. I got a cramp in my face trying to get my mouth around this thing. I had to eat this thing with a knife and fork. The bun was superfluous. It was tasty otherwise, though the 'onion rings' in the burger came apart long before they were cooked, leaving streaks of batter within the burger. They're perhaps best left as a side. The chips/fries here are a fail. The nothingness of the skinny fries or the pale not quite crispness of the chunky fries don't leave much of a dilemma. I avoid. As is par for the course in a restaurant that narrowly misses the mark, the service is mostly excellent; the staff is warm and friendly. That is worth the visit. Otherwise, some quality-control is needed.

Unfortunately the quality of the food made it a place I'll never visit again. It wasn't just poor, it was nearly inedible. I was hungry, so I ate the side salad (completely bare with no dressing or even a hint of salt or pepper. Just greens), and I really tried to eat the sandwich, but even after slathering it in condiments to mask the flavor of the horrible bacon, I couldn't get it down. Fries were good. Coffee was burnt beyond recognition. I wouldn't eat here again.
