I had always been curious about this place.and having trying it several times.i heard earlier in the year it was open.so visited one evening.but time was getting on and I rushed it a bit.so a few weeks back with a few hours free I went back.just having a relaxing wander around taking photos.the cafe is quite noticeable as you drive past it with its tower.once a busy stop for travellers and truckers alike it for some reason did not survive.considering its size it does surprise me.maybe the service went downhill.there is also a small bed and breakfast part upstairs.and a garage what went on to become a commercial sales place.that has gone too.the whole site has been sold now.to be developed but nothing has happened yet.surprisingly as well it ain't been smashed up yet.

Cracking Mikey... I drove past this on the way back from RAF Barnham but the sun was setting so I couldn't stop

When I went months ago walking around it seemed part of a zombie film

think that's why I liked it so much.
Nice shot of the coco-cola fridge

Fab attention to detail Mikey. Loved that.

Superb stuff, Mikey. I liked the derelict petrol station and the multi-coloured floor tiles in the cafeteria.

Mikeymutt · Oct 19, 2016

Thank you.it certainly has that zombie feel to it.I think a short horror movie was made here once

Excellent work Mikey
That exterior almost has a 'Route 66' look about it

I've driven past this place several times over the years and I have also seen it in a film called "The Goob" not long ago.

I know this place well. Weird for me as I remember going to the chip shop on a Friday night to get tea! I also strangely recognise the hand writing on the 'baby change area' as I went to school with the previous owners daughter who would've painted it!

I also know the last tenants who lived in the flat at the top, surprisingly it was still being lived in until they moved out around 6 years ago. The cafe shut before the tenants moved out a year or so later.

Growing up in Necton I can even remember going to the Q8 petrol station & filling up our Sierra with 4star!
