When I used to drive for a living I knew where all the 'greasy spoons' were. The ones I remember in particular were the Quernhow cafe on the A1 north of Wetherby, another in the first laybay past Thirsk up the A19. The cafe on Kirkstall Road outside the council depot, full of dustmen at dinnertime, and the cafe next to M&B Radio under the dark arches in Leeds.

Of course if you want a good fill, you have to go to Bernie's cafe in Ingleton.
