TrueNorthProductions:
Hello,
I’m a researcher for True North Productions based in Leeds, and we’re currently making a second series of A1: Britain’s Longest Road.I’m hoping to get some advice from truck drivers that frequently use the A1 regarding roadside cafes or food vans that might make a nice feature on our programme. We’re looking for any interesting characters that have a particularly interesting story, maybe they’ve been working on the A1 for several decades, or their food is so good people travel specifically to eat there.
I thought the UK’s truck drivers would be the best place to ask for opinions on this, thanks in advance for the help.
I wish you every success as a researcher in your current quest of the A1’s finest culinary delights.
Unfortunately there are not as many as you might think.
However, one that I have found to be rather welcoming, is The Fox, about 3 miles south of the A151.(Colsterworth).
To be fair, it was a member on here who brought it to my attention some months ago.
I always used to stop at Colsterworth truck stop, or Stibbington diner. Both stops not too bad.
But anyway, I thought I would give the Fox a go and it’s very good.
I’ve probably only overnighted six times in as many months, but so far I’ve not been dissatisfied.
A very warm welcome awaits you and the staff are all very friendly too.
If you like the comfort of your own cab after dining and a shower, then TV reception is quite good too. (That is always something I consider when choosing a ■■■■■■■■■■■■)
And fridges are to be turned off after 10 pm, or something like that.
