Not a huge truck stop Waller and its all the fault of Swindon truck stop ! Christ on a bike that place was bad ! I hope its improved but it couldn’t get much worse.

Stracathro Services on the A90, just North of Brechin. Free overnight parking and meals that will keep ya going from morning til bedtime.
My favorite is the braised beef… piled as high as a mountain, choice of new tatties, rice or chips.
They do a half decent ruby too and proper duffs. The ladies in there are real friendly types - proper good cooking like it should be!

I always liked the gammon from j29 on the m1
You won’t beat the famous Colsterworth omelette with salad.
Not a truckstop but there’s a little snack van on lynx estate in Yeovil (opposite Talon) which does the widest selection of decent food I’ve ever had
Everything from bacon rolls through to Yorkshire puddings full of a deathly cooked Sunday roast. Nothing’s too much trouble and everything is under 6 quid.
Kev and Carolyn are brilliant
Currently at Swindon Truckstop, so thought I’d give it a quick update… still ■■■■!
The list of my favourite truck stops in no particular order…
Red Lion - Northampton
Lockerbie Truckstop
Route 74 - Lesmahagow
A1 Diner - Colsterworth
Junction 29 - Claycross
I was at Swindon truck stop today, the ham and eggs was nice, lots of ham and golden yolk eggs but I found hairs in the ham.
The toilet was covered in excrement where a knuckledragger over shot the pan.
Good sized portions of door stopper bread and butter that you can help yourself to.
The place needs a complete refurbishment to attract more drivers.
For a decent pint, there is a large pub off the roundabout or taxi to town.
