Definitely not you're normal gas station food. The brisket and turkey were so moist and flavorful that you don't need any sauce. The coleslaw is great also. The chicken was awesome also! Definitely worth a try order in, pickup or eat outside. But Definitely stopping by again. OH an the breakfast is awesome to boot!

I stopped in and didn’t realize they served breakfast. Craving a hot homemade breakfast I tried it. I had a basic platter with sausage eggs potatoes and a biscuit. It was okay. Not bad. Not exceptional. The sausage seemed to be grocery store sausage. While I was there several people ordered the biscuits and gravy. Ill go back and try that. Otherwise, I may not go back.

The brisket was really good. Enjoyed my burger, but was disappointed in the sides offered. My husbandloved the baked beans, but I found the mac and cheese I had more of a buttered mac as it didn't taste of cheese at all to me. It was good, just not what I wanted from mac and cheese. That said I find almost all mac and cheese wanting. My in-laws love this place and they really like the mac and cheese.

This place is amazing. It smells so good from the outside. The beans have big chunks of meat in them, a meal unto themselves. The coleslaw is crisp, cream dressing, simple and good. I had the brisket platter. Thoroughly smoked, good sauce. I’m a big fan
Edit: I need to mention the value also. I don’t know how they do it, but they give you a huge platter of meat, two giant sides, for under $11 including tax. That’s a third last then Bieners across town which is also excellent. Maybe the savings comes because this place is in a gas station, but I’ll take it!

Food was great and came out super quick. The atmosphere was super cool and unlike any I’ve really seen. It was also pretty nifty we could get good food, gas, and ice all in one store. Glad we made the stop when traveling for a dog show!

I do not know Mr. James however I do know that his employees know how to cook a burger. They served me the most delicious burger I have had in years. The way it slid down my throat into my waiting stomach and filled my gullet with delicious delight...simply magnificent.

We saw an ad about a Smoked Philly Dog at this location and decided to go give it a try. I dont eat hot dogs but was excited to try the brisket, burnt ends and pulled pork. We drove to this location and had to circle around twice before noticing it was part of the gas station. Going in, the inside was really nice. I liked that I could order my food and buy drinks from the gas station part and pay at one time.
The food was so good. My husband's Philly dog looked just like the picture and he thoroughly enjoyed it. My food was good. I felt the meat was a little dry and I had no choice but to use sauce. The flavor was still good just a little dry.
We enjoyed eating here and will probably be back, even if it is only to try another version of their hot dogs!

Might as well be gas station food. Overpriced bbq, like everywhere else. Mac and cheese doesn't have any flavor or uniqueness. Pulled pork is over cooked and has a funky smell that reminds me of raw venison.
