Opening Marks and Spencers 'Simply Food' at Moto Service Station


On Thursday I went with Carol to the new M&S food franchise at the local Moto service station off the M4 by Chieveley. This is smaller version of the food department in the Newbury store, but sells a wide range of food, including the obvious sandwiches and salads, but also a wide selection of chilled ready meals and raw ingredients.
It will be a boon to motorists passing through, but also for locals who need to stock up late at night (open till 10pm) and after 4pm on Sundays, as the Sunday trading laws don't apply.
The staff are all new and keen, and Carol and I were well looked after by senior Moto staff, who provided us with lunch and a beautifully presented bouquet and chocolates.
