I normally stop here as the diesel islands are well kept. But I stop at 1am to get fuel and decide on a coffee. Now I don't drink coffee often, one in a blue moon, but when I got coffee so I could push an all nighters to get my load off the coffee was awful like you'd get from Loves. Most disgusting taste and not very hot in fact 10 mins up the road it was void and that made it take worse. On the flip side id did wake me up bc I couldn't get rid off the nasty taste in my mouth. I ended up tossing the coffee out the window. (just the liquid as I don't litter). I'm glad I didn't use cash to pay for it but my points. Still that's a waste of points. Normally pilot has the best coffee on the road. Tried others and 🤮. Was disappointed with that one. The one thing i miss is hot chocolate with milk as water is just watery chocolate and that not hot chocolate in my book. As it was 42 degrees outside and not only did I want something to keep me busy but also warm. Shame.
