Quite handily located near the M11 in Trumpington, this petrol station has a reasonable shop and an ok coffee machine. The staff are sometimes friendly and sometimes grumpy. They sell Optimax diesel which makes my van run really smoothly. read more

Esso Service Station

There is not much one can say about a petrol station, but I have given this one five stars for…read moreseveral reasons: it is conveniently located north on a road leading from the city centre to the A14 and the Fens, which just happens to be my most direct route to and from work. It is accessible from both side of the road, yet there is rarely more than a couple of cars in the queue ahead of you. It has a shop, staffed by polite shop assistants, with the usual drinks, snacks and newspapers which by some miracle don't seem to run out until quite late in the day, even at weekends. Most importantly, charges at least a penny less per litre of petrol than any other in the area, including the supermarkets' stations - the fact that all the local taxis use it to fill up should be enough evidence for it being good value!
Good service, usually cheaper petrol (compared to BP and Shell in Cambridge, Tesco in Milton). They…read moreremoved their tyre pressure adjustment facility.

Otherwise it was always fast and efficient. There is a little store which offers the basics including , tooth paste, tea, milk, sugar etc as well as charcoal for those wanting a Saturday BBQ.
Sainsbury's Filling Station

On a couple of occasions when we've been travelling from south to north on a Sunday, we've shopped…read morehere for a sandwich lunch (for 4!) and have come away quite happy with our purchases. On both occasions we were able to pick up some 'yellow-ticket' discounts (of food close to its sell-by or display-until date), so it could be a good place to go for bargain-hunters. The car park is a little confusing in its layout but there seemed to be plenty of space; the layout of the store was much better as we were quickly able to find what we wanted. The service we got was friendly too. All in all this seemed like a very reasonable branch of Sainsbury's.
Shell Service Station
It's hard to rate a service station - either it works or it doesn't, and this is your typical large…read moreShell station in the small 'Cambridge Services' on the A14 at Boxworth. It worked for me - particularly as I didn't fancy running out of petrol on the hellish A14 road, which must qualify as one of the least pleasant in the UK, thanks to the endless stream of heavy lorries travelling its unpleasantly narrow lanes, going from Harwich and Felixstowe to the Midlands and North of England. Still, stopping here was a few minutes of welcome respite, and meant I made it to my destination without incident. It has a shop selling newspapers, magazines, a few motoring items and a small range of snacks and drinks. Efficient staff, too.

They have a small take-out cafe, serving proper coffee + a cake stand. Their petrol is reasonably priced & not as expensive as some other nearby petrol stations. They also offer a car wash and a free cash-point. because a lot of people shop here for food, the queues tend to be quite long and I find it takes a while to be served - so they lose a point for that.

They also have a new WH Smiths and a Sleep Inn attached. There is lots of parking and it also has the usual toilet facilities and games area. There is plenty of seating in the centre where you can eat. All the food places and shops are around the edge. You collect what you require (each person could have something different), then sit in the middle and eat together. They also have a wi-fi point available. They also have a shell petrol station, but you will find this is a few pence more expensive than if you go off motorway.
I have used Lincoln's for getting on for twenty years. They are unfailingly friendly and efficient…read more I used to use them for batteries, exhausts and tyres, but now I get brake pads and disks replaced there too. Usually you can just rock up, but it is worth giving them a ring to discuss what you need done. The lads there are all knowledgeable and happy to discuss alternatives (budget tyres vs. more expensive ones). They have a waiting room with an OK coffee machine and a TV, but it's just a five minute walk to the Old Town proper where one can get a coffee in a wide variety of cafes or pubs. There is a lot of competition for this kind of service in Stevenage. This probably keeps all the firms honest. I prefer to use Lincoln's because, as far as I know, it's a locally-owned and managed business.
I have used Herts Autogas for a number of years now. They not only do LPG conversions (their…read moreoriginal main business, I think) but also service air-con systems and do general mechanical work on diesel, petrol and (no doubt) hybrid vehicles. I must admit that I mainly started using them because they were near enough for me to walk to, but now I would not get my car serviced or repaired anywhere else. Richard runs a very professional team. My car always comes back working fine. They have all the latest diagnostic equipment that allows them to clear error codes and generally do a more thorough job than the main dealers. On the odd occasion when a very specialist tool is required they are able to use their contacts to sort out the problem without requiring me to have to bother going to the main dealer myself. They are hidden away on the Nup End industrial estate, map as above. I had second thoughts about writing this review as I don't really want them to get so busy that I have to wait for a slot but I thought that in the interest of the Knebworth economy I'd write this.
