If only all services were like this!

First time stopping at Gloucester Services and was pleasantly surprised. Not your typical motorway services, you won’t find the usual stores here. Instead there’s a farmshop set up with produce available from independent businesses, many that are local. There’s a huge selection of fresh breads and pastries as you walk in, at least 5 vegan pastries on offer and all looked delicious. There was also cooked breakfast options, a fresh salads counter, plant milk for hot drinks and plenty of choice to takeaway in the shop. I took away a cinnamon twist for a quick breakfast (it was lovely) and at around £3 I didn’t think was too bad value considering motorway services prices. Up to three hours free parking.

Vegan friendly with several options

All services should be like this one. No chains fresh often local produce. We had the cooked vegan breakfast smoked tofu slice (usually avoid smoked stuff but it was really nice), mushrooms, tomatoes, beans and toast (choice of bread including sourdough).
We also took some 'plant based' pastries home several options my pistachio croissant was excellent. I did hear someone saying 'why are they all plant based' but they bought one. I can see why they are sold as plant based as I expect they would sell less marked as Vegan.
The breakfast was marked as vegan.
No extra charge for oat/soy milk etc.
oh the grounds out the back are nice too and there is a water fountain too.
I would definitely wait to stop here rather than 'normal' services

Pros: Lots of vegan choices , Water foundation , Not the usual boring multinational services

Cons: Not really

The “vegan” cooked breakfast isn’t 109% vegan. They cook the tofu on the same skillet as the eggs. I know there is always a risk of this when you eat out… I always ask for my tofu to be cooked separately and they are happy to do this

Brilliant motorway stop for independent vegan options!!

Soooo much better of a stop than your average M&S etc. Had a huge range of vegan options. I had a curry Chickpea muffin and a Chocolate swirl pastry. So delicious!!

Pros: Convenient , Range of options
