"Been using this plaice on occasions for many years, Stopped by today to get a quick bite. It seems they have put the prices up, which is to be expected in the present situation, however £1.30 for a spoonful of tomatoes is well over the top, considering you could buy 2 cans of Tomatoes for that price. Sausages and tomatoes cob £4.90 ! In my opinion is too much, but on the positive side the food and service is normally good."

"Food is great and well priced. Toilets aren’t fantastic but they function for what’s required. Definitely get some local made Welsh cakes when ordering"

"Wow what a place. Been coming here for years and it only gets better. Extremely convenient location, cash point at the petrol station up the road, card payments accepted also. Toilets here, really extensive menu. Good parking and always plenty of people here. Food rarely takes longer than 5 minutes to arrive, choice between takeaway or drinks in a mug. Very handsome portions, great prices. Amazing place. A must if you're visiting from England going to mid/North Wales or visa versa."

"It's an ideal place to stop if your heading across into the lovely Mid or north Wales area. Ample parking onsite fo bicycles. Motorbikes, cars, vans, HGV's and even tractors! Food and drink is reasonably priced and can't fault the quality of both. There is seating available onsite. Toilets on site which is a bonus and kept reasonably clean. If your passing the area pop in, you won't be disappointed. You can even buy a copy of the gutter press ( newspaper ) and work clothes to. Used to be 24 hours a day at one point not sure if it still is. Can pay in cash or contactless ( minimum spend £1 again is great as most shops say £5 minimum spend )"
