theblackpoodle03/11/2022Convenient stopover on M6 Lovely welcome from efficient staff. Clean, comfortable room. Just what I needed after a long drive. Rooms are quite small, but comes with a small price. The drivers staying there all seemed happy, and that must be a good sign. Would definitely use again. Good value breakfast too.ianjmc8505/03/2022Decent Breakfast Decent Breakfast, good quality, used to do free refills tea and coffee, but not anymore, reasonable price, clean facilities and toilets, friendly staff and quick service safe car parking, convenient for M6 motorwayGeoff M25/10/2021Ticked all the boxes In Cannock for an event at the station and as all the usual hotels were booked up we opted to stay at the Road King and taxi it into town The rooms were basic but very clean ,afequate for us as we just wanted somewhere to sleep The food served in the cafe was fresh and hot ,great for a late breakfast Everyone of the staff were very pleasant throughout the weekend Our only gripe was that the cafe and bar was advertised as 24 hour but actually closed around 8pm although security was on hand to serve hot drinks and non cooked snacks . If we had been made aware of this beforehand we would have eaten before returning The Road King is a truck stop and offers wonderful facilities for the drivers Price wise we couldn,t fault it We,ll definately visit again when next in Cannock In reality 5 stars less a little for the confusion over the cafe timesAdam K17/09/2021Amazing food, friendly staff, cracking brew Headed South for Thorpe Park weekend. We stopped here for tea. The staff were friendly, food was amazing topped off with a decent brew. Could not fault it. We’ll definitely be back on our next trip down south for our tea again in a few weeks timePaulex8721/08/2020Excellent Amazing cafe food great the girls here really make you welcome so pleasant and happy makes ur time more enjoyable.
