I recommend this place to all walkers passing by, especially those on the Cotswolds Way. Suzie is one in a thousand, with her heart on her sleeve. You get more than just a hamburger here. We were welcomed like nowhere else. Thank you!

Best sandwich and coffee for miles around. Suzie was lovely also. Very reasonable prices also. 5

Gorgeous, just what we needed on the way back from a Devon holiday to see us through to our destination. Suzie' was just packing up but still offered to cook us up a few delicious homemade burgers!

Suzie’s sandwiches were Delish! Such generous portions from her local butcher - we wished we had ordered 2 more to eat much later for supper. We recommend all hiking The Cotswold Way to walk 2 min off the trail to eat at Susie’s.

After a long day farming, making big deliveries to Willow Brook Stores and sinking a couple of pints at the Seven Springs pub, Suzie Burger van was an absolute delight. Delicious.
