From Mike B:
"On the M1 north of Junction 28 stubs were built for a
service area when the
road was first built. The present Tibshelf Services
however were actually
built just south of these stubs which can still be
seen unused. I'm not sure
why this is the case, but the present position does
mean that the slip roads
are sharply curved and entry and exits are at the same
point rather than at
the north and south ends of the site as they would
have been.
From Tony Lloyd
"Northbound - the design is like a tunnel. It's quite a small service
area. The front door basically leads an open corridor straight through
to more doors at the opposite end. There's toilets at the back, a wee
arcade and a couple of retail outlets on one side, and
a standard msa cafe on the other side. Must be the service area with the
least natural light, EVER, as the only windows are the far side of the
cafe, and the doors at each end. Mmmm. Gloomy. "

Northern, yuck 29/05/2005 18:13:23 The cafeteria service people are always friendly. The services are in pleasant surroundings with space to walk away from traffic and exercise the dog. 13/12/2005 05:45:56 Its very nice and its near nice places and its got a funny name. Also egg mayonaise sandwiches 07/02/2006 22:38:45 Called in this morning for a pee and a Costa Coffee. Sign in the gents announced pay and display and wheel clamping, so I skipped the coffee and carried on with my journey without coffee. What a funny way to run an MSA! 25/03/2006 21:20:30 I would like to nominate Tracy who works in the Wimpy Outlet as Employee of the Month for her customer service during my visit on April 10th. Quite simply, outstanding! I hope she gets the recogntion that her professionalism deserves. Ian B 28/04/2006 20:58:01 24/06/2006 14:28:47 I was disapointed on Sunday 6/7/06 that their was no water available at either entrance for dogs. We were travelling home from the Guide Dogs for the Blind Annual Gala and luckily had some water with us,on the hottest day of the year so far. 04/07/2006 16:07:48 Tibshelf Wimpy poisoned my friend 29/07/2006 16:53:28 i found the staff at the wimpy quite simply rude with terrible customer service skills 03/08/2006 09:29:17 Southbound Costa Coffee staff must be trained to work at snails pace - and still get orders wrong on the second attempt - quite a skill!!! 19/09/2006 08:31:56 Roadchef have roof windows giving plenty of natural light. The staff on Costa Coffee Northbound are very friendly and efficient. You get free parking for two hours so you can relax and enjoy your break. 04/10/2006 10:54:24 Small and gloomy. If possible, I press on to Trowell or Woodall instead. 18/12/2006 01:57:08 Great friendly service at the Costa Coffee¬ 02/05/2007 11:39:21 3 of us in our group had a wimpys and it was dreadful. it went straight in the bin hardly touched it was so terrible! 29/05/2007 10:34:35 like * A LOT * the fact they have Costa Coffee... 15/09/2007 14:57:38 Ive been on several occasions and everytime the costa coffee staff on the southbound are always nice and polite and pretty quick at making my order and it looks clean ans new. 06/01/2008 17:39:57
