Buc-ees: The Super Gas Station Everyone Loves
Recently I got to visit the most amazing gas station in the country. Buc-ees.
If you haven’t heard about it yet, you are about to!
According to Parade magazine:
In a nutshell, Buc-ee’s is so much more than a gas station. From its beginning in 1982, the chain has strived to provide a clean, friendly and stocked experience for their customers.
When you walk through the doors, you are immediately greeted with “Welcome To Buc-ee’s” by multiple employees who go out of their way to make you feel valued.
Most gas stations aren’t known for their food choices, but Buc-ee’s knocks it out of the park. They’ve got a little bit of everything: freshly made baked goods, traditional Texas barbecue, sandwiches, fudge that’s made on-site, salads, burritos, snacks, fresh fruit and oh-so much more.
Now, what is so special about a gas station? I have never heard of one being a travel destination, of all things.
So where are they located? You can check the chain’s location finder to see if there’s one nearby.
As large as a grocery store, Buc-ees has so many cool and interesting items. Some of my friends recommended the following before we made our trip:
