I had the pleasure of a stop at The Horn today.

Dining experiences don't get much better.

Superb!

Not so many places like that left these days. Even motorway service stations tend to just be a BP/Shell/Esso plus a McD/Burger King etc. I like the Horn, stopped there many times over the years. The bacon rolls are legendary but I find a bit tough to eat with a dry mouth due to hangover... very salty.

Indeed.

It's fallen off a cliff quality wise.

Which is a shame.

Eric. Remember I had a trip to London last Christmas with a Cocker spaniel pup? Stopped off at the Horn for a mega breakfast then , in the car park met a really friendly chap with a (replica) C type Jaguar. His car was a beautiful example of the type, and, remember, this was December!

Top breakfast, top car, top man!
