Directions from M1
Sue’s Pitstop Café is situated 3 miles north of Castleford at Ledston Luck Enterprise Park on the A656, about 2/3 minutes south of M1 Junction 47, which is the last M1 intersection before the A1 M1 Merging of Motorways.
At Junction 47 take the A656 south to Castleford,,,
The road sweeps for a while through open countryside before straightening
then go straight over the next roundabout still marked Castleford,,,
A few hundred yards down the road on the left hand side (nearside) you will see the Ledston Luck enterprise Park with its wide entrance, all easy to negotiate
As you enter the park you will see Sues Pit Stop Transport cafe on the left, really easy parking, decent surface.
Directions from A1
A1M
(Currently (July 2005) diversions in place much easier off the M1 if heading south)
But if Heading North
At Junction 42 leave the A1 and turn LEFT off the exit road at the roundabout.
Follow the road for 300yds or so and take a RIGHT at the next roundabout and join the old A1 road following diversion signs for LEEDS A63
After 1 ½ miles or so the diversions (LEEDS / MICKLEFIELD) bring you off onto the A63
Follow the A63 for 1 ¼ miles until you get to the A63/A656 roundabout and turn LEFT onto the A656 signed CASTLEFORD.
After ½ a mile turn LEFT into Ledstone Enterprise Park (cafe road sign will be in view).
SUE’S PITSTOP CAFE is on the corner building adjacent the large car park.
There will be a link road built in the coming months direct off the A1 through to the A63 making this route more direct.

Webmaster Report
The Cafe is well staffed and they seem a happy bunch of ladies, keen to please the customer, just what a stressed driver needs. This Cafe used to be called the Redwood Transport Cafe when Sues Mum ran the establishment, which she did for about 16 years, now passed to Sue to continue the good work.
I observed many cars and white van men using the cafe, many businessmen seemed to like what was on offer as well as the HGV drivers, this is always a good sign. Toilets are nice & clean and fresh in both ladies and gents.
Owners Comments
We are a small 60 seat independent operator offering good value for money as well as tasty grub.
It is a friendly relaxed place where plenty of our regulars have called year after year.
We would welcome any new customers and look forward to seeing you.
Comments: Walon Transporters: HGV Driver keith Boyle
I work for Walon Transporter's, I have used this cafe for about 12 years & the staff are always pleasant & the food is top notch, nothing is to much trouble for them & the banter is very good. Dont tell to many people about this cafe as we may have trouble parking in future , well worth the 4 minutes it takes you to get off the A1M. Cheers Keith B.
