An American couple recently made a special trip to Gloucester Services along the M5 in the UK after being convinced by Reddit users that this service station offered the best sausage roll in the country. Caleb and Taylor Kiser, who share their travels on social media as @culturecravingcouple, documented their experience and declared it their favorite sausage roll ever.
In a video posted online, the couple explained their initial skepticism, saying, “Here’s how Reddit convinced us to drive to a petrol station in the middle of England for a sausage roll.” Despite doubts, they gave it a try and were soon won over by the quality and taste. Caleb and Taylor described the pastry as “shatteringly flaky” with a “juicy herb sausage,” served “piping hot inside, like Hot Pockets level hot.”
Their post included detailed praise: “Honestly, Reddit might have redeemed itself. 10 out of 10 would follow anonymous sausage roll hype again and you have to try it.” They shared that they waited the recommended ten minutes for the roll to cool and absorb its juices, making the experience even better.

The couple also revealed their secret to uncovering hidden culinary gems while traveling: “Many late night hours of Reddit black holes to find where the locals eat.” Their glowing review highlights not just the food but the community power of recommendations through platforms like Reddit.
Gloucester Services has earned multiple accolades, including being named the finest service station in the UK in a survey by Which?, where over 4,000 members rated their service station experiences nationwide.
