The bus to Cheddar Gorge in Somerset, perhaps, would count as a "food related destination".

 

[ooo]

For dessert the 42 in Bristol goes to cherry gardens

 

[Wirewiper]

Victoria (sponge)

Bakewell

Eccles

- as you can tell, I am a huge fan of cake (in both senses of the word).

 

[Busaholic]

Here are my two for starters! Anyone able to provide a main course?

I can't read either of those. What do they read?

Ham and Sandwich.

Cheddar is a place in its own right

Also, how about (beef) Wellington?

Melton Mowbray.

Strawberry Hill

Plum-stead!

The 4A to Eagles-ham on the First Glasgow network:


This is the only bus destination of this nature that springs to mind in the Greater Glasgow area, although I may be overlooking another really obvious example lol

The 17B to Four Mile Inn is the only example i can think of in Aberdeen. Four Mile Inn being a pub at the terminus.

Here's 62151 approaching the terminus back in late August, note that sadly the flip-dot screens only display "Four Mile". Great advertising for the pub though!

There are a few in the North East Scotland area but perhaps they're not appropriate on this forum!

Dumpling Hall (Stagecoach Newcastle)

A few bays along from the 43, you might have found the 5 to Seasalt-er

Arriva in Bolton run short services occasionally on their 534 to The Pinapple pub at Astley Bridge. The dest blind just reads '534 Pinapple'

First Potteries and several indies do serve Leek

How about Olive Grove in Sheffield, which is the First South Yorkshire bus depot & HQ.

If you want a drink quite a few routes that go to Buxton[Water].

 

[Whiteway215]

Towcester

 

[Busaholic]

As pronounced by many, Salsbrie.

 

[pdeaves]

I am sure there must be buses with destination Weston-SOUPer-Mare.

 

[Robertj21a]

Dover (Sole)
Rye
Aylesbury (Duck)

(just waiting for someone to suggest Bangor......)

 

[Ianno87]

Take the 1 or 3 to Cherry Hinton in Cambridge. Eat too many and you can carry on to *Ful*bourn.

 

[quarella]

Bournville Estate, Weston-super-Mare until the mid 80s when the route was extended and you could get all your food on the number 3 with destinations of "Leos"and "Sainsbury's". It went via "Tesco" in the the town centre too.

 

[Ianno87]

Bakewell, Eccles, etc also spring to mind, as does Melton Mowbray...

 

[alangla]

Not sure if it’s still there, but some services that terminated in Moodiesburn, near Cumbernauld, were advertised as being for Moodiesburn Devro. Devro are a manufacturer of sausage skins.

 

[DaveHarries]

In Bristol we have Shire-ham-pton. How about some (South)mead for drink?

If you were on a Cornish version of "I'm a Celebrity" you could, for a long shot, have Penzants, probably served with a sprinkling of Salt(ash). You might need a Looe rather soon afterwards though.....

[Wirewiper]

Boston (as in the beans)

Sole Street

(stick of) Rock Ferry

 

[gnolife]

Best be careful how many of these you make use of, or you'll end up on a bus bound for Broadbottom.

 

[Statto]

Pop into Kendal for a bit of Mint Cake.

 

[Yorks185]

In the West Midlands you can go to either BirmingHam or WolverHampton,then go to Bournville,then off Portway for a drink
