Little Chef has been a sign of good food for 50 years,
with restaurants right across the UK.
The first Little Chef opened in Reading in 1958, the same year Britain got its very first motorway. From 11 seats, we've grown to become one of the UK's favourite roadside restaurants.
We have 184 Little Chef restaurants, from Scotland down to Cornwall. You'll be in good company, over 20 million people eat with us every year.
You'll find our familiar sign on most major UK A-roads and of course, on many motorways.
Our aim is very simple: to be the motorist's friend, serving up quality food and offering great value for money. Expect freshly prepared food, using the best ingredients we can buy. Enjoy a welcoming, informal setting and watch out for some new additions to our menu like our Tasty Toasties and our Hunters Chicken – helping you beat the rush hour (and the hunger pangs).
Anything but little!
Each year we welcome over 20 million customers, serving them around:
- 10 million cups of tea
- 12 million rashers of bacon
- 13 million eggs
- 13 million sausages

If you need to keep moving, we now offer a takeaway menu at every Little Chef, so you can now choose your favourites to take away. Easy! Alternatively, at some Little Chef's you'll find our new Coffee Tempo! serving great tasting coffee, sandwiches and baguettes, ideal if you're looking to 'grab and go'
