Is there anywhere to get a hot drink and a snack at either Tamworth or Burton on Trent stations please? Googling gave me inconsistent results.
Thanks

At Tamworth Morrisons is just 5mins up the road, turn right out of the station, up the ring road and it's on your left
There is a 'Station News' on the side of the street level station building and I think I've been in there since Covid, but I'm not sure if it's still open and if it is, whether it does hot drinks. But otherwise, if you want a hot drink to take on the train, yeah, you're stuffed. There's a Sainsbury's (no cafe, that's now the local Argos) down the road just before you hit the town centre, less than 10 minutes walk but seems more like half an hour (Burton's like that), or alternatively turn left outside the station and left again opposite the Town Hall for a tatty independent convenience store/post office which is a bit nearer.Naff all in Burton. Full Stop!
Quite frankly, you're better off going to the slightly nearer Devonshire Arms (Burton Bridge + Bass + guests). Both pubs have changed hands in recent years, the Devvie for the better and the Cooper's for worse!It’s not far from the Coopers Tavern though!
