Welcome to Off Motorway, the vegetarian guide to finding good, healthy food while travelling round Britain by motorway.

 

It's important to take good breaks while driving, but vegetarian and healthy food is not easy to find at motorway service stations.  So get off the motorway and seek out wayside inns, tea rooms, coffee shops and top class restaurants.

 

Prepare your stops in advance, or print the pages and break as the mood takes you!

 

Or even bring a picnic.  The motorway pages have some suggestions for stops, so check out the Picnic Page for exciting vegetarian recipes and ideas.  There's new stuff every month!

 

And why not visit our Shop for special offers on food and travel books, as well as holiday and travel ideas?  Anne O'Connell, Offmotorway's reviewer has a new book out, Early Vegetarian Recipes (English Kitchen), which contains a large collection of recipes from as early as 1690, right up to 1914.  As well as a fascinating look at the food of vegetarians from ages past, it contains plenty of inspiration for today's cook and even ideas for food while travelling - see some of them over the coming months on the picnic page.

 

 

This site is a resource for travellers, and a way for people to share their ‘finds’ with others.  Please make recommendations to the site whenever you find food or service which goes that extra mile.
