Not only are they a rip off,the food they sell is foul!My hubby a truck driver on occasions is forced to park overnght and that is where the real rip off occur.I believe it is about £17 for overnight parking which has to come out of his own pocket until he takes the receipt to his boss at the end of the week.Then he waits until the following weeks wages to get it back.The car park stinks of pee and there is noise all night so not much value for money there either. |

the only way we will get motorway prices down is to stop using them just use the loo and get back out on the road |

I travel on UK motorways regularly, and REFUSE to pay the exorbitant prices. I take my own, much nicer and cheaper! |

dont ever stop at motorway service stations, they are rip offs as are little rip offs, sorry, little chefs.
we always go off the motorway, and find local supermarket or pub to stop at... and invariably the petrol is cheaper when you are off the motorway!
i think its a captive audience attitude to pricing!! |

Most of them seem to overcharge and the quality is somewhat dubious, and service is often appalling, So yes they are a rip off in my book. |

They most certainly do. I used to do long distance lorry driving and found it easier to wait untill i got to the town/city where my deliveries were then go to a local supermarket to eat. I hate Service Stations and all the greed that they stand for. |

Yes they are.
However in defence of the operators it is not all their fault. As always with rip off Britain it is the Government at the root of the problem causing the overcharging. They charge so much rent for the site and restrict usage etc. that the cost of everything has to be high.
For once it is not all B Liars fault. It has been going on ever since the motorway service areas opened! |

It's not a matter of 'who thinks', more of 'everybody knows'!
It's just another example of the Rip Off mentality in this god forsaken country of ours! It's probably Tony Blair's fault! |

Yep its a total rip off and half the time the stuff tastes disgusting!! I laugh when they do things like 2 for £2 when you can get double that elsewhere and it tastes no different from the shop stuff! |
