Trivia and History
Proposals for a service area at this site on the newly opened Pevensey Bypass were put forward by Action 2000 Ltd in 1986. This was approved following a local inquiry in 1986.
The filling station opened as an Esso forecourt in around 1992. Permission existed for it to have a restaurant, and this opened in autumn 1995 as the 'Pevensey' branch of Little Chef.
The forecourt had Esso's Snack & Shop offering. Esso redeveloped the forecourt in 2007, introducing a new canopy, pumps and a much larger sales buildine. The new sales building opened as one of Esso's On the Run cafes with a Costa offering.
The Little Chef restaurant closed in 2008. In 2012, McDonald's expressed an interest in the site and planned to open a McDonald's Drive Thru here, but this idea was dropped. The building was purchased by Euro Garages in 2013, who converted the building into a Starbucks store opening in September 2013.
The filling station was very briefly taken over by MRH, over the winter of 2015. It then passed to BP Express, who refitted and reopened it in February 2016 with a M&S Simply Food store and a Wild Bean Café.
