We analyze a single server queue with two types of optional general heterogeneous service. Under different options for the customers, the server provides sequential-cum-parallel service. Just before his service starts, a customer has the option to choose both services in succession or only one of the two types of services. Steady state probability generating functions for various states of the system have been obtained in explicit and closed form. Some special cases have also been discussed.
