"This restaurant serves the best burger and fries in England, despite the unattractive presentation. The burgers are made with real minced meat and topped with plenty of cheese and onion rings. The French fries are crispy and delicious. Our group also tried the chicken burger, which was equally delicious. The food arrived quickly at our table, and the service was excellent. The restaurant is conveniently located right next to the A1 highway. We only stopped in for a quick bite to eat and some leg stretching, but we were impressed with the quality of the food. Overall, we would give this place a 5-star rating for service."

Ideal stop off prior to or after travelling between England and Scotland on the A1. Service: 5 Location: 5
