Three Buc-ee's in a row is a bit much but that's how it worked out as I wrap up my Texas tour of…read moreBuc-ee's, adding Denton as the 30th I have reviewed in https://www.yelp.com/collection/K2PxaWl_0nh8YV5DNxaJVA/Buc-ee-s. Having visited eight in the last week, from Auburn AL and Pass Christian MS and across Texas), it's easy to see how formulaic they are and how they all have the same features. Located adjacent to a busy highway exit, it's easy to access and they don't allow tractor trailers so you're not dodging big trucks. Huge expansive parking lot that rings the whole store. Dozens if not a hundred gas pumps, all clean and free of litter. Multiple entrances with handicapped parking immediately in front of each one. Inside, you'll probably get a "Welcome to Buc-ee's!" as you enter. As you walk around the store, you'll maybe here a shouted "Fresh brisket on the board!" as a new piece of beef is set out for slicing. In the center, a sandwich station where they're making up tacos and sandwiches. There's an area where they are candying nuts. A fudge counter. A jerky counter. A handmade tortilla station. Bunkers with snacks and fresher foods like salads, sandwiches, protein packs, cups of banana pudding and coconut pie. A wall of soda fountains with two dozen options. Coffee and fixings. A third of the store is consumed with decor. Some of it is very much Buc-ee's merchandise with tshirts, swimsuits, hats, jackets and the like. A seasonal tshirt on display. And much of it is Southern styled decor with the occasional bible quote or some other risque and double entendre. Clean restrooms. No, really. They pay a $40k a year salary to people to keep the floors clean, the counters wiped, the paper towels stocked and the toilets clean. I have never seen a dirty Buc-ee's toilet in ever. There a reason Buc-ee's is a destination and they're working to come closer to you. I've been to Buc-ee's in ten states and they're expanding with new ones in Colorado, Ohio and Arizona opening recently. Go check it out! [Review 411 of 2026 - 720 in Texas - 25594 overall]

Today I decided to write a review because of the 8 machines they have only 3 where working and none of them where a flavor I would choose. All while 3 employees stand behind the counter and talk to one another and do nothing to replace the flavors. So I drove down the road and got me a slurpee from 711 and guess what Dr Pepper was in stock and at right consistency. This QT will not see my business again and with the pain to get into I hope 711 and Racetrac make them close down.

I used to live in Denton but never stepped into Howdy Doody once until last year. My Wife and I…read moretook a road trip that thankfully took us through Denton on our way back to Denver, CO. We really wanted to buy as much craft beer as we could find and Howdy Doody did not disappoint. Why and how did we end up there? We called ahead and ordered a few meals from Mr. Chopsticks so we could eat on when we got home the next day. After we went through the drive thru, we parked and walked over to Howdy Doody to check out their selection. For a small store, their selection of craft beer is amazing!!! Definitely wasn't expecting the amount that they had! We checked out the "craft beer" store near UNT and their selection was disappointing in comparison. If you want craft beer, go to Howdy Doody!

Howdy Doody is a pretty rad convenience store (sans gas pumps) in our neighborhood. They have craft…read moreand local beers in cans and bottles, and a pretty great selection, too. Their beer prices are kind of high - for craft can 6 packs, we usually pay $10. That said, the prices are pretty comparable to the beer prices at Midway, and Howdy Doody is easier to get in and out of. They don't always have what I am looking for, but they always have something that I like (something I cannot say for the nearby 7-11) when it comes to beer. PokéStop next door at Chopsticks, and a gym across the street at the doctor's office. The employees here are always pretty chill - no one is particularly friendly and I've never seen an employee out from behind the counter, but they are always nice, fast, and get the job done without issue. Overall, if I have the time, I go elsewhere for beer, but only because of the price. Otherwise, this is a neat little c-store in a great location.

We've been in several times over the last month and each time we've found what we needed and the cashier was nice. They have a great selection of beer ranging from craft and local beers to basic brews like Miller, Bud, and PBR. I like that they offer individual cans of beer for when my husband and I can't agree on which six pack we would want to share! They also have a full-service Post Office in the store which I haven't used yet, but I'm sure will come in handy throughout our time living nearby. If you live around this store, I'm sure you've stopped by once or twice because of how convenient it truly is. Definitely recommended!

BACKGROUND: This taco shop is fairly close to my work so easy decision to get food here if I'm short on time. Good Mexican food, definitely NOT Tex-Mex! FOOD Ok, being a recent refugee from CA to TX, I was told that Texas doesn't have good Mexican food. This is oft repeated in a FB group I'm part of, but one thing I noticed that most of these people don't live in the more ethnically diverse parts and getting their Mex at Tex Mex places. One of the great things about living in and around Denton is that there's a wealth of great mom and pop Mexican restaurants in the area. This place is no exception. I'd say my hands down favorite things to order here are the "street" tacos. Meaning they serve their tacos on a single smal chicanitas (small corn tortillas, maybe I butchered the spelling) and have a good choice of meats and vegetarian options. However there have been times some of my favorites weren't available, hence the minus star. They do though make one of the better al pastor tacos I've had in quite some time. And its consistently good, so there's a recommendation for you. I'm not too impressed by the lengua though. They also make a pretty good sopes as well. If you've never had a sopes, you're missing out. SALSA The family makes this excellent I mean EXCELLENT red salsa. I'm sure it has a name, but man it's really spicy (not gringo spicy) and has that nice semi chunky texture that I like. See my pic. GAS STATION While it may not look like it from the outside, you can drive around the back and get drive thru service. Never done it myself, but letting you guys know its available. If you go inside, its a decently stocked mini-market with adult beverages, soft beverages, and some general grocery items (no vegetables or fruit) like chips and other sundries. PO-PO JUST DOWN THE STREET/SAME BLOCK Pro tip: Don't do stupid s--t near this place. It is literally on the same block as the Denton Police station. They are always turning around the corner and down the street to park in their lot. RETURN VISIT? So far so good!
