    A trip down to Poole every year on holiday for my kids wasn't complete
    unless we stopped at a couple of Little Chefs on the way. They loved them, especially
    as they got a free lolly each when I paid the bill.

    Our one in Huddersfield shut for a while and then a new owner took it over. It's not cheap for a burger and chips fast food joint, but it's cool we have one of the only ones left and it's all of two minutes from the bus station and five minutes from the train.
