If this is your first visit, then welcome to the site!
Love them or hate them, we've all used a motorway service area before. This site attempts to catalogue them all for both researchers and travellers. Are they really that bad? And are there certain companies to watch out for? Only you can answer these questions, which is why I value your reviews and have created the many sections of this site.
If you don't know where to start, you should check out the Services List, which is a comprehensive guide to all the motorway services. You may then want to try the Operators section for history and information, or perhaps Brands for a guide to the facilities at motorway services. Warning others and aiding your journey, this site remains to be the largest site dedicated to motorway services around!
Happy browsing!

Site Updates - 07/02/10
It's been a long time since I last updated this page, but don't be fooled into thinking nothing has happened. For a start, over the past few days just about every service area page has now had an update of some sort. I wasn't planning to do it like that, but Moto and RoadChef both decided to overhaul their websites at exactly the same time, and neither of them had the decency to warn me. Disgraceful.
Anyway, as well as fixing no less than 62 broken links amongst other things, there are new pages for Krispy Kreme and Station Supreme. You could write a song about that, but fortunately I'm not going to bother. There's also a bit more news on Cobham and Gloucestershire Gateway, and the pages for Welcome Break, Ross and Happy Eater have all been updated too with more information about their history.
I've removed the polls from the left-hand sidebar as some of them were five years old, the results have all been archived and analysed in great detail at MSO:All Polls. Instead a new 'featured content' section has been created for our most comprehensive pages, although right now I'm not sure whether it's working, so we'll have to see how that pans out.
As and when I get the time I've also been updating the unbuilt services and moving them over to the wiki, you can see what I've got so far by visiting Map:Unbuilt Services. I also hope to add Irish services, create a better method of searching for services, make it easier to find pictures of a-road services, create help files and work on the new features section. That should keep me busy!
