Popped in on the way home for a coffee pick-me-up. The girl who served me was very chatty and served me promptly. Nice to see someone happy in their job considering it was around 7pm when most people were at home.

It's a great little services this and they have loads of chargers for EV's too.

The main reason I go here fairly regularly is that they have plenty of EV chargers. Six new 350 kW ultra rapid ones, one older 120kw rapid which also has 100kw Chademo and an AC charger which I think is 22kw (ideal if you have an older Renault Zoe). If your vehicle takes CCS you can pretty much guarantee you'll get on without a queue.
The services building is much scaled down since the M4 was diverted away. The main building has long since been sold off and a new restaurant shop and toilet area created behind the filling station. Sadly, you no longer have a view of the Severn. There's a BK, a Costa and a tiny WH Smith, also a small toilet area. As they're a bit off the beaten track this is all you can expect I suppose. Prices are eye watering, like every other services I've ever been to.
I have a minor disability which means using the toilet is a bit of a mission for me, and you'd be surprised how little things like having the coat hanger missing in the (non disabled) gents WC made things that bit more difficult. The place was clean enough to be fair.
I haven't used the filling station in years so I can't comment about it.
Recommended if you drive an EV or want to avoid crowds.

A small moto service area, clean and coffee and sandwich food. There is a travel lodge in the rear!

The old services is now an insurance company and the new building is small with no view of of the Severn. You have to hunt for the viewpoint which has been left to become unkempt and run down. A shame!

We love these services! They are never too crowded, there is a Costa serving lovely coffee and a reasonable range of food, plus a burger place. The loos are clean. Lots of outside picnic tables so we can keep an eye on the cat in the car!
