National Express Leeds Barnsley recent customer reviews

Our coach was due in at 20 past midnight and we had over a hour to wait. I was a little concerned about hanging around a bus station at that time of night. There was no need to worry at all. Lovely attentive staff on site, very helpful (helped with luggage etc.), there were hot drinks and snacks available as well. The coach arrived and departed on time and the driver kept us informed of the journey throughout (places, times etc.) We wouldn't hesitate to use National Express again and would highly recommend. Thank you
