Coopers cafe @ Risby Closed

Been into Coopers truckstop @ Risby for breakfast and the cafe is closed until further notice.
Truck parking still open.
Checking online at stuff and it’s been closed for about a month.
No indication it will re-open.
I bet there isn’t a reduction in the parking cost whilst there is no food available.

DHL insist we park up at a ‘secure’ place of parking,Dan…and they do pay our expenses.

Tbh my drivers carry my own credit cards it’s their choice what they do ,I don’t do the driver pays and I pay back or £26 bit it’s what ever it takes pub meal or hotel truck stop or services :open_mouth:

We also have company credit cards to pay for parking. Company demands that overnight parking must be in places with at least a toilet and wash facilities.

When i use to drive for my cousin years back, he had the same system. Worked well, all he asked for was a a receipt for everything but when one of the drivers presented him with a receipt from a knocking shop in Mannheim ,Dave didnt see the funny side

Neither am I - but there are a few good ones out there that deserve some trade . I’m assuming this is Coopers Cabin just of the A14 , if so I’ve used it and found it spot on , good food and decent , secure parking . Be a shame to loose places like that .
