The better part of the Barstow station. Most food places here smells bad. And you just don't get the filling you want to eat at. This one is nice. Nice employees. And decent pricing. It was nice to stop here and refresh a little after the long trip from Vegas.

The ice cream was terrible! I took 1 bite and threw it away. Had no taste to it. My kids ate theirs and both got a stomach ache.

I am so happy that more freddys locations are opening. This location is tiny inside! There are only…read moreabout 10 tables. But, it had all the diner charm as the other locations. The service was quick and friendly. We stopped for custard sundaes with hot fudge on our way to Vegas. The sundaes were perfect. The mini is the perfect size and price.

This has become our recent go-to stop when driving between Southern California and Las Vegas;…read morehowever, recent events have changed that decision. First, and probably the most important, they don't have Diet Pepsi, but Pepsi Zero. And Pepsi Zero is just awful. And yes, I tried it. I admit that I'm a fan of Coke products, but I'll survive on Diet Pepsi, never, but never Pepsi Zero. So that alone makes me not want to come here anymore. This trip, the girl taking our order seemed confused. Maybe she was new? But it didn't help that we had to explain we wanted a bowl of Chili, and even though it's not on the menu, they could sell it. I personally didn't want a burger this time, so I ordered a chicken sandwich, which is basically just chicken tenders on a bun. Not very impressed, but it wasn't as bad as Pepsi Zero. They do get credit for having a "senior" menu, which I ordered from. And I appreciate that they have tater tots. It seemed like a smaller portion, but it was actually perfect for me. I'll keep checking back, but if I see they still only serve Pepsi Zero, I might be walking over the McD's for my drink.

Mt family and I stopped at Eddie World on our way to Vegas, and we did not regret it. When we…read morewalked inside, I was amazed at the variety of fruit, candy, nuts, and goodies they had. I purchased beef jerky, chile lemon pistachios, chocolate covered gummy bears, roasted garbanzo beans, and tajin flavored pistachios. A little embarrassed to say but I did sample everything I purchased,during the car ride there. I will say this is a premium indulgence. I'm sure the prices reflect the gourmet quality. We will definitely make this a must stop, every time we drive to Vegas.

We have embarked upon many road trips to Vegas and we've never stopped in this area. In fact, we…read morehad never heard of EddieWolrd until recently. Several friends began stopping by for a pitstop and told us all about this place. Naturally we added this destination to our route during our trip to Vegas as well. EddieWorld is located in a small town called Yermo. There really isn't much to this area, so you know that this place brings a lot of money to the community. It's quite convenient because it's open 7 days a week, including holidays. Doors open at 6AM and it closes at midnight. EddieWorld has a lot of gas pumps and a decent amount of Tesla chargers. However, they only had 3 charge point EV chargers and one wasn't working. Bummer! When you walk inside, you'll find everything that you'd expect from a tourist spot. They have toys and unique flavors or candies. You'll find chips, cookies, and fresh popcorn! There's a jerky counter with flavors that I've never heard of! The line for food at the back of the building was kind of long. I ordered a veggie patty and it was pretty good! The restrooms are very clean. Usually when you go to a rest stop restroom, you never know what to expect. However, we stopped at this location twice and both times, the attendants were cleaning both restrooms. All in all, we enjoyed our visit to EddieWorld. We spent a couple of hours here on our way to Vegas and during our return trip to California. It was a relief to have somewhere to stop and grab a bite to eat without feeling rushed to move on to the next location.

Well, so much for making it to Vegas without stopping. Some of my crew needed to stop and use the…read morerestroom and I gotta say, I do too, with that Starbucks coffee I'm using to keep awake. Lucky this McDonald's is open 24 hrs, cause of all the traffic this place sees. Barstow Station is kinda of a weird place, more of a tourist place, than just a place to get food and get going. They have all these old train cars set of for indoor dining. We all find the restrooms is the main thing. Well, who can actually stop at a McDonald's and not get some French fries! None of us need a real meal, just a couple of more hours and we'll be in Vegas and have a hotel and get some sleep for our work ahead of us. So, it's orders of fries all around. That's gonna smell good inside the Suburban! I ordered on one of those kiosk thingies and our food was out on no time ... the fries are already cooked I assume! We outta here and back on the road.

Whos job is it to check the restrooms or is MCDonalds so cool with this they aren't worried about their franchises managing their business this way? Full trash cans...all of them. No seat covers, none of them. Trash on the floor all of them. Only 2 stalls had toilet paper. My son did play at play place before getting back on the road and we grabbed an ice cream to go. Just dont understand why McDonalds allows places to look like this. All windows look grubby. I hope the kitchen is clean. My son came out of the play tube thing and said someone wrote evil inside of the playground and said he wanted to go and that he changed his mind about staying for ice cream. I said me too and we left grossed out and didnt buy anything. Yuck.

I immediately grabbed the dog's collar and brought the poor thing inside Starbucks to keep it safe from getting hit by passing vehicles. I informed the employees that the dog was lost and that I had already tried calling the phone number on its collar while waiting for the owner to show up. Unfortunately, I was told that because of their policy, they couldn't allow the dog to stay inside. Really?! I understand that businesses have rules, but couldn't they make an exception in a situation like this? This was a friendly but visibly nervous dog that could have easily been run over outside! Sometimes a little compassion and common sense should come before policy, especially when an animal's safety is at risk. Thankfully, I spotted a man frantically searching for his pet, and sure enough, he was the dog's owner! I was so relieved that they were reunited! I sincerely hope Starbucks management pays attention to this matter and reconsiders how situations like this are handled. I'm not suggesting that every animal should be allowed inside, but when a lost animal is in immediate danger, there should be room for compassion and reasonable exceptions. A few minutes of kindness could mean the difference between life and death for a helpless animal. I'm just thankful this story had a happy ending!
