Good shop but horrible toilets, the toilet I went in had so much wee on the toilet seat and it wasn?t flushed and it has traumatised me.I know that it?s not the shop?s fault but I don?t understand why people don?t flush and wipe the toilet seat after themselves. They are also quite dirty and the toilet seat was wobbly.

Toilets not cleaned and toilet paper in short supply. Hand blowers a bit temperamental only working sporadically.

Stop again at this service when traveling back along the M5. I can say it is a nice service service area that can get busy. The drink and food prices are high. Also avoid using the on site cash machine as it charges a fee to withdraw cash.

We called into the South bound Strentham services and saw the Fresh Food Cafe thinking it would be the better of all the other outlets. The Panini we had tasted good and was really hot however the very expensive coffee was undrinkable. If there wasn't a lo g queue when we left I would have combined about it. We threw it away in the bin. £7.30 we paid for those 2 coffes! Disgusting.

We were served by Ekta kulria who was extremely helpful polite and professional. She was a first class ambassador for Spar and her work should be recognised by her employer. Well done and Thank You

Stopped to give my Disabled and Family a comfort break and get some food following an early start to Alton Towers. Well what we were met with was Disgusting. The Whole Main Entrance was covered in Litter. The Bins were overflowing with Rubbish. We then headed for the Toilets. Well what an Absolutely disgusting state they were in. Talk about being dirty that?s an understatement. They smelt absolutely disgusting. It may my family feel sick. Would not recommend them to anyone.

Travelled up the M5 late at night after a long day including a delayed flight into Bristol airport. Desperate for a coffee and a snack so I stopped at Michaelwood just north of Bristol but the one solitary machine was out of order. The next services northbound is Gloucester but I?m not a huge fan so I continued to Strensham? getting there about 1am. And what a lovely surprise! Despite the time of day it was quite busy and McDonald?s was open ? selling not only coffee but the full menu! The service area was really clean, well lit and it?s now become one of my favourite services on the UK motorway network! Well done Strensham Northbound!

Stopped to get some food and a drink half way through a 61/2 hr drive after camping in the rain, got another 2 hrs up the road and daughter realised she might have left phone at services, phoned them when we got home, someone rang us straight back and they had phone and had put it in safe, when I explained it was a 6hr round trip to collect it, they offered to post the phone and although I offered to pay they said they couldn?t accept payment, phone was delivered signed for delivery, with a lovely photo of what I can only assume was some of the staff who posted phone ?. Teenage daughter very relieved to be reunited with phone and I am very thankful to not have to do 6hr drive. Communication was fantastic, staff went above and beyond to get phone back to us. Thank you so much.

Not stopped here before, so wasn't sure what to expect. The usual McDonalds and Costa, including a drive thru, should satisfy most palates, with other offerings available. Most importantly, the facilities were nice and clean, even though they must get a lot of footfall through there on a busy day. Other shops also include a Spar, which surprised us but would had been good had I not prepared a picnic lunch for us!

Fantastic - I have been looking for healthy fast food on motorway services for years (having travelled up and down the motorway network for forty years). The food was amazing - both healthy and delicious !! And it didn?t break the bank. Best coffee as well ?. In future I?m going to try and stop at services which include Leon.

We truly wish that we'd not stopped at these services but after a detour due to an accident on M6 we were needing to stop. The place just isn't clean, food on the floor in the eateries that isn't cleaned up, just a quick wipe of the tables. I have to use the disabled toilet and if I hadn't been desperate we'd have continued on to Gloucester services. The toilet at Strensham was so bad I took pictures. Sooner or later the general lack of cleanliness at these services will affect someones health.

Thursday 23rd March and we were travelling along the M5 on our way from Seaton, Devon to Bolton. We stopped at this Service Station for a pit stop and something to eat. From the outside it looked like any other Service Station, which proves never judge a book by it's cover. The interior was modern, well planned and bright, it was almost like a mini shopping Mall. There was a clothing store, Cotton Traders, a supermarket, SPAR, a newsagents/stationers, W H Smith, a phone shop, electronic games arcade and more. Including ATM, toilets and showers. There were a wide variety of Food outlets including Costa Coffee, McDonald's, Cornish Pastie Shop, Fresh Food Cafe, LEON and CHOZEN, Asian food. The circular food court area was at it's heart with the eateries around the circumference with seating in the centre. There was a large grass area to the rear, for eating outside during warmer weather. There is also a Days Inn, hotel/accommodation here, along with a BP petrol station.

After doing 400miles I decided it was time to stop and have a refresh. I was absolutely craving the sweet nectar of a Nelson Mandela of the Stella. But to my complete disgust and agony neither the petrol station or the spar/WHSmiths inside sold said liquid gold. This is a complete neglect of customer needs and requirements, how can I continue inwards with my quest?! After some time contemplating on what to do, I decided to get a McDonald?s. Upon receiving my terrible tasting fast food, I was again massively let down? not a single logo in sight on my paper bag. How will everybody know that I?m abusing my body now? So after throwing what I had just purchased in the bin, onwards I go to find my Stella. After another 10miles I have found my sweet sweet Nelson?s. I would strongly advise not going to this complete incompetence of a so called services, and wait till the next one.

A nice takeaway breakfast speedily cooked and easy to eat from a convenient package. Ideal for a quick pit stop
