Opening in the early hours for breakfast, this large roadhouse hidden from view on the old alignment of the A45 in a truckers' lay-by. Undergoing extensive reconstruction work and renovations at the time of writing. There is a large open plan bar area with masses of seating and dining tables. It is primarily a "truck-stop" for lorry drivers and is very well know by all in the road haulage business, being situated just off Junction 16 of the M1. There is an enormous lorry park as well as ample parking for cars. Refurbished in 2018, real ale is back on sale, with up to three handpumps serving typically nationally-known beers.
