Finally made it to the new Buc-ee's in Goodyear after waiting for the I-10 traffic regulations to calm down. We went around 9 p.m. and it was still busy but not overwhelming. The staff was friendly, especially the employee handing out the beef jerky samples. They were patient, tending to everyone and generous! The merchandise was also fun to browse. They had everything from shot glasses and pajamas to grills, folding chairs, coolers, drink holders, cookbooks, and even a whole western section with home décor and gifts. You could easily spend a while just looking around. They even had Buc-ee's poopouri! Lots of the merch was reasonably priced. The bathrooms absolutely lived up to the hype. They were spotless, and employees were constantly cleaning. I also loved the lights showing which stalls were available. Lots of the art going into the bathroom was for sale also. Really cool. Parking was easy, the employees were working. I always wondered what they were going to put there. Hoped for nothing but im happy it was a Buc-ee's. Looking forward to coming back and trying more of the food and snacks! read more

I finally got the chance to visit the new Buc-ee's in Goodyear! It's my second time at a Buc-ee's location, and it's just like I remembered from my last encounter.... it was crazy BUSY and a tad bit overwhelming! As soon as we walked in, I was enveloped by the amazing aroma of fudge, candied nuts, and brisket!! You can get just about anything your heart desires with the Buc-ee's logo. It's definitely an experience, and you won't believe it until you've seen it for yourself! Just be prepared to likely spend an hour or two checking out all the things and probably dropping at least $100 on all the must-haves! We walked out with a brisket sandwich, a sausage on a stick, candied nuts, sour cherries, mints, a veggie burrito, lemon crisp cookies, and seasoning! read more

I had my first experience at Buc-ee's finally last week, long after the grand opening insanity was over, but it was still insane. They have over 200 gas pumps at this location and nearly every single one was full. And, when you walk into the retail part of this place it will blow you away with everything they have to offer. I was there right around the lunch hour, had to park probably 100 feet or farther away from the entrance and walk across a big parking lot with lots of cars moving around. I was a bit intimidated by the long line to get food, but received positive encouragement from someone who said the line moved fast. And, they were right. I was probably 50 people back from the hot food station, and I got my food within about seven or eight minutes. The BBQ beef sandwich was delicious, and despite it sitting on a hot food line tasted fresh and was nicely accented by the barbecue sauce that you get with your sandwich. I don't think I would rush out there again just to get another sandwich, but if I happen to be in the area at the right time, I wouldn't hesitate to go eat another! read more

I lied to everyone including myself when I swore not to come here until the hype died down. I was omw back from CA on Sunday and thought, why not?! The exit wasn't backed up and that was a good sign of the city's planning. Goodyear police were making sure everything went smoothly and they did a great job! I spent about 15 minutes from the time I exited until I entered the actual parking lot. I then got lucky and snagged a front parking spot when though I was ready to take whatever open spot I saw first. This visit was meant to be!! I made my way into the store where the craziness of Buc-cee's greeted me. I didn't know where to go first. I scanned the store and decided to head to the clothing department and then on to the housewares and finally the snackies!! I grabbed a bunch of merch and was happy with my haul. The lines for the famous Buc-cee's brisket and beef jerky were nuts! I didn't know where the lines started for those, so I opted to skip out since I've already had the brisket a few times during my travels to Texas. I did manage to grab one of their Brisket Mac and Cheese and a Banana Pudding. After about an hour and a half of wandering through the store, I fell in line to pay for my merch. It wasn't bad. I waited about 10 minutes before I poad for my haul. Look, idk how it happened but I spent a bit over $300!! LOL Call me crazy, but I'm a fan!! The Brisket Mac is a definite MUST TRY! Look for it on the bottom shelf near the fresh beef jerky (which I have not yet had, but intend to very soon)! The Banana Pudding is okay, but you know who has the BEST pudding... hehe! I'm glad that I didn't get trampled on, no fights broke out, and that everything went pretty smooth during my first visit to Buc-cee's in Arizona! I was disappointed when I saw people leaving their drink cuos on shelves throughout the store. That is so rude, especially when you know the place is brand new!! Ughhh!! Keep it clean, people!! I even got gas before I left and it was also smooth sailing. Shout out to the employees for doing some awesome work maintaining the crowd. You'll definitely want to stop in here especially if you've never been to one. My very first trip to Buc-cee's was in Katy, TX in 2018. My bestie described it to me as a "glorified rest stop," which it absolutely is, and more!! I'm a Buc-cee's fan for life!! Yoir turn! ;) read more

Yay Buc-ees has finally made it's way out west to Arizona! This is the 3rd location I've visited and so happy we got one here. We stopped by yesterday which made it one full week after the grand opening. We arrived at 2pm and there was a 15 min wait outside to get in. There was a friendly security guard standing at the door letting people out and in. We were a party of 8 and we all went inside once it became our turn. Once inside, it was CHAOTIC. It was super busy and there was people everywhere. We all wanted "hot foods" so we stood in line. This line was about 45 min long but it felt like it moved quick. There was workers everywhere and a lot of items were sold out. We managed to get some merch, food, snacks, and desserts. Bathrooms were clean and the workers were friendly. So much fun! *If you hate crowds, do not visit yet. read more

Being who we are, we had to come to the newest Buc-ee's. We made it a day trip and it was worth it for us. It was jammed packed, starting with the parking. Every single pump had a car, not pumping gas necessarily but they were there. It was stimulation overload for my husband. Ppl everywhere in the store, buying snacks, sandwiches, candy, jerky, drinks, merch, and everything else. The lines were long to get sandwiches and fudge but they ran quick. Even check out was a breeze. We enjoyed the brisket sandwiches, and find them reasonably priced but we've had them before. One of my favorites is the candied pecans. I also stock up on beaver nuggets and bring some home to family and friends, a cost friendly souvenir. We took my mom with us and she said that Buc-ee's was the epitome of impulse buying bc everyone is legit trying to grab something, anything. They're open 24/7 and the location is an ideal stop, right off interstate 10. read more

Buc-ee’s - Outside - Gas Stations Near Me - Goodyear, Arizona

It appears that visiting during their grand opening weekend presented some challenges, such as heavy traffic and long queues. This was somewhat anticipated, given that it's the first location in Arizona. However, once inside, there was an impressive array of products that were quite captivating. Remarkably, the prices were very reasonable, and there was a wide variety of items available. My husband was very pleased with all his purchases, which ranged from a water bottle to a shirt and stuffed toys. They truly seem to have everything one might need. They also boast an extensive selection of beef jerky. We spent a full two hours exploring the store. While it can be a busy establishment, they do offer a substantial number of gas pumps. read more

It was our first time there 10 days after the opening. The staff is doing a great job keeping the store stocked and clean during a 24x7 rush. Kudos to them!! Shelves are getting restocked and from my pics you will see lots of stock. There were some empty shelves but 85% stocked. Pricing varies but we thought it was reasonable compared to other places that carry this sort of stuff. Food was out and coming out they had the lines moving fast and people were nor being impatient but nice to each other. We tried the beaver chips, fudge, brisket sandwich and pulled pork. They make the portions worth the price. I liked their other leisure selections like venison sausage. We will go back with a plan now that we know what's there....probably closer to the holidays. Star lost for.... not enough sugar free low carb options in the soda and fudge area! read more

This is the 2nd Buc-Cee's I've been to, I expected it to be busy but it's even busier than you could ever imagine. I visited this particular location at night on a Wednesday. I was excited when I finally got to the location until I realized I wasn't technically there yet. They have streets blocked off for miles so you can't turn in until after you do a U-turn about 5-10 miles down the road. Once you do the U turn, then you'll eventually get to Buc-Cees again and there will be a Q that you have to wait in to get into the parking lot. Once I was inside the place was PACKED! I honestly only went there to get a veggie burrito. A lot of people were waiting in line for meat but people were blocking the area where the food was so I had to get around people to get what I went there for. I also purchased some beaver nuts, they taste like caramel popcorn. They are really delicious. My burrito was cold, I was a bit disappointed about that. I hope the place gets a little less crowded next time I'm there. Also the customer service here is usually great, nice friendly staff! read more

Buc-ee’s - Exterior - Gas Stations Near Me - Goodyear, Arizona

There are three rules of road trips: 1. Always stop at Buc-ee's. 2. You will overspend. 3. Refer to rule number one. Heading to Vegas and decided to pop into Buc-ee's at 6AM. Perfect timing because it wasn't too busy. Is this place massive? Yes. Does it need to be a destination? No. Would I have waited hours just to come here? Definitely not. All that said, it's a fun stop to stretch the legs and buy some snacks for a road trip. Located just south of the I-10 on Bullard Ave is another piece of Texas. read more

Be warned, it will be really busy! But really great! Bring a good attitude and some patience, and please just pay attention while driving. If you're someone that doesn't want to deal with the traffic, large groups of people in mass, and hype of a grand opening I would wait to go. Normally I would fall into that description actually, and I usually wait until new places level off and calm down, but I had some spare time and patience to spare, plus the curiosity to check out the madness of a new Buc-ee's intrigued me. The new Buc-ee's location just opened up in Goodyear on 6/22 to the general public, first one in Arizona! Woo hoo for that. I've been to locations in Texas and Colorado. This will definitely be where I stop on road trips to Cali, well once the hype dies down and it's not a major effort to go. I didn't plan to check it out so soon, I went on Tuesday 6/23, day after the grand opening. It just worked out that I had some time to kill. And time you will need. I left my house near Mesa Riverview around 11am, and I didn't get home until close to 3 pm. The map said it would take 25 minutes to get there (that's non traffic mind you), but be warned the map isn't accounting for the city's traffic control plan. Right now the only "correct" way to access it, is exit from the 10 fwy to Bullard and you'll have to follow the route they have placed that takes you all the way down to the ball park and circles you around, back up Bullard Ave. it's definitely out of the way and meant to spread out the flow of cars. All traffic is blocked from any other directions. And I heard it was really bad opening day. Was a bit better day 2 during the time I was there. And I messed it up by exiting before Bullard, on Litchfield Rd and trying to go over. It didn't work, so I had to get on the correct route and circle around twice. I didn't know ahead of time about the street closures. So really, for me, the most time and effort it took was simply getting there. Thank god I was in the AC car, it was hot outside! Once I was in the parking lot it got much better and I could start to enjoy the experience. I pulled up to an open gas pump immediately, I mean there's so many of them! Then I parked in the massive lot, and walked right in. Once inside it was a bit of chaos again with so many people who clearly were having their first Buc-ee's experience trying to navigate it all. And there were large groups of people. It was like being at a busy amusement park or concert but with lots of beavers. I spent the majority of my time just leisurely watching people and checking out the items. I was in no rush since I had put in the effort to go. I chatted with staff working who were all very nice, given how busy it was, and they said yesterday was a literal madhouse. Glad I skipped that! One thing I observed is that lines forming but unclear if it was moving or needed. So just check before you cue up if something makes sense to stand in line. There was a wrap around line for the brisket counter that didn't really move because it wasn't a line up situation, people could walk up and grab a sandwich, but others were standing there waiting for certain items. **Recent update: looks like the store did clearly indicate a line up area around the brisket counter with a blue roped off area, so now it might be more organized and clear where to stand, line up, and get items from. I saw this in someone's video so I'm not sure how long it will be set up like that, but it looked helpful. Staff were friendly and the other customers there were mostly nice that I encountered. Some looked down right stressed. Others had no clue what was happening and deer in the headlights look lol. I enjoyed my time there, and found plenty of pockets of space. I also got myself another shirt, as I do when visiting Buc-ee's. For me, I was solo and I could move around the store pretty easily. So I did that. Checked out all the food sections, the bathroom (of course!), and the merch areas. I tried new things I haven't had before that are popular like the beaver nuggets, turkey club sando, and brisket Mac. What I will say about Buc-ee's food is that some stuff I really like and others items are meh, but it's definitely better than any other gas station out there and priced well. I really liked the turkey sandwich, better than I expected. It's the kind of junk food I'm just having every once in a while so I could go wild, which I did, to bring home! :) I also really liked the cheesesteak burrito but only after I took it home and heated in toaster oven to crisp it up, wouldn't have been as good there because it was too soft and cooled down. Honestly, I say this about every Buc-ee's I've reviewed... on paper I should hate this place but somehow I don't hate it. I wouldn't want to come here regularly but it's a fun place to visit when you're passing by one and to experience. If you go check it out, I hope you have a good trip and peep the tips I shared. read more

This was my first trip to the Arizona store, but I have been to several Buc-ee's around the country. The best part of this trip was bringing my family who had never been to a Buc-ee's before. They had so much fun picking out America 250 items, gifts for friends, and some brisket. We stayed for a piece of fudge and used the fountain drink wall to bring on the road trip home. I got coffee! But there are a bunch of drinks that are Buc-ee's own brand. We had fun people watching, as other people did what we did, shopped and found all sorts of great items for themselves and others. We found and bought some clothing attire too. And that was a nice bonus. This is a stop I'll make frequently as they always have something new for my friends, I love their kitchen section the best. Oh and we are going to make a gift basket later this year, the prices are totally reasonable so we can really fill it up. I'm glad I can visit in my own state now. Welcome to Arizona Buc-ee's!! read more

My daughter, husband and I visited Buc-ees on the Fourth of July. It was an experience like none I've experienced before. It's so much more than a gas station/convenience store. It's a vast space of wonderful sensory stimuli from the sites, sounds and smells of BBQ, roasted nuts, jerky, coffee, and sweets. It was wall to wall people, bright lights, merchandise and food. We explored the store, gathered up what we wanted to purchase, took pictures with Buc-ee and made our way back to the truck. We parked across from Buc-ees in the dirt because the parking lot was full. Overall a good experience. Buc'ees is clean and I noticed the entire time we were there some form of cleaning was taking place. We will go back in the near future for another visit. read more

Waited a month to check out the new buccees in Goodyear. We went on a Monday at about 11. We spent 40 minutes and the longest line was for the fudge. The bathrooms are great - very clean and I like that they have the green / red lights above the doors so you can easily see what's available. The fudge stand only had 3 staff members. 2 making the fudge and nuts, 1 cutting the fudge who was also running the register, so it was very slow going. I think we stood in line for 20 minutes. We tried the blueberry cheesecake, peanut butter chocolate, butter pecan, chocolate pecan and birthday cake. All were so good! Not too sweet, but just right. My favorite part! The brisket line was off the hook before 1130, but cleared up by 1145, we were able to quickly grab our sandwich (sliced brisket sandwich). The sandwich was okay, but I'm also not really a bbq person. Overall, I'd go back eventually, but more than likely in the middle of the night/ early morning hours. It was extremely busy and we had a hard time finding a spot to park. read more

This was the first time I've ever heard of Buc-ee's, and after seeing a line from the freeway (!!!) I knew we had to stop in. We circled around for a parking spot before heading inside. This is a one-stop-shop for snacks, goodies, and everything you could ever want a beaver's face on lol There are kitchen items, clothes, swim suits, water bottles, and other non-food related things inside with an "Americana" vibe. Lots of longhorns and good ole 'merican merch. As far as food, there are soooo many options you can't just pick one thing! There is a whole wall of jerky, including a turkey jerky which I can't usually find - I don't eat red meat, so this was a welcomed surprise. There were also other non-perishables, like gummy candy, trail mix, a million types of nuts, salsa, sauces, chips, popcorn, literally everything. They also have a fresh brewed coffee section and ICEE section as well. Now, on to the hot food.... the line was insanely long but we stood in it to get one of their famous brisket sandos for my boyfriend. We were in line for about 15 mins and you could see the workers making the different types of sandwiches behind the scenes. There were brisket, turkey, and fried chicken sandos. Also saw an option for brisket with no sauce in case you're sensitive to spicy sauce (the BBQ has a little kick!) Their bakery looked so yummy but we skipped the sweets this time. Staff was friendly and helpful. Considering how busy it was, everyone seemed like this was the norm. Definitely recommend! read more

We decided to swing over to Buc-ee's after a wedding because why not! Even towards the end of their first week open it was a good time! We appreciate how spacious the parking lot and gas pump area was and the lines to get in were organized and simple. The managers came out to inform us 45mins prior to the side door closing that, that would happen which was nice to gauge if we should stay in line or move to the main entrance line. We stayed and only waited a total of like 38mins. Everyone was super friendly and nice upon entering and during our hour long stay inside. It was pure organizational chaos but in a good way and honestly for it being 1am it was great lol! I got my brisket sandwich (however I will always feel like the pork is better) but we did enjoy the peppered jerky and banana pudding. Also the beaver chips are delish and just as good in AZ as in TX! The best call out is the dress I got! I got a denim dress for $32... which is literally $65 for the same one at boot barn! Crazy and I love how cute the clothes and home decor are here. Please go yall! It's worth the hype and filling my tank for $37 was the cherry on top lol read more

Buc-ee’s - Gas Stations Near Me - Goodyear, Arizona

Well... I finally made it back to Buc-ee's after about 20 years, and apparently not much has changed--except it's even BIGGER. Calling Buc-ee's a gas station feels like calling Disneyland a parking lot. It's more like a travel hub, shopping destination, restaurant, bakery, and roadside attraction all rolled into one. There is literally something for everyone. Fresh Texas BBQ sliced right in the middle of the store, a bakery, burritos, chicken, fresh fudge, cookies, jerky, candy, popcorn, home décor, clothing, gifts...you could easily spend a couple of hours wandering around. Of course I had to grab my favorite Beaver Nuggets, along with way too many snacks and jerky. We also picked up the brisket sandwiches, chicken strips, and the three-meat sandwiches for the family. The brisket sandwiches were just as delicious as I remembered--tender, smoky, saucy, and packed with flavor. The chicken strips were juicy, perfectly seasoned, and disappeared pretty quickly too. One thing that surprised me was how much I enjoyed the shopping. I found myself spending just as much time looking at the candles, lotions, kitchen goodies, home décor, and all the unique Buc-ee's merchandise as I did looking at the food. My only complaint? The crowds. It's still very new, so that's completely understandable, but wow... it was PACKED. I wanted to take my time and explore every aisle, but it felt more like navigating an airport terminal. At one point there was an employee standing in the middle of the store yelling, "Grab and go, people! Grab and go!" I totally understand she was trying to keep traffic moving, but my inner foodie was thinking, "Ma'am... I'm trying to emotionally connect with this brisket sandwich over here!" By the time we checked out, we somehow managed to spend $140...without buying a single gallon of gas. Honestly, that's probably the most Buc-ee's sentence I've ever written. Will I make a special trip every weekend? Probably not. Will I stop again when I'm passing through? Absolutely. The girls had a blast, the A/C was a welcome escape from the Arizona heat, and it turned into a really fun family day trip. If you've never been, it's definitely worth experiencing at least once. Just wear comfortable shoes, bring a little patience, and maybe set a budget... because somehow you'll walk into a gas station for a snack and leave wondering how you spent $140 without pumping a drop of gas. P.S. I'm still recovering from another stop on these road trips that featured an overhyped pie everyone swore would change my life. It didn't. Thankfully, Buc-ee's restored my faith in roadside food. read more

This place was so chaotic! I did go there during opening week but I probably won't be back for a while unless I'm road tripping if I'm being 100% honest. I had no idea the brisket sandwich was so popular and I waited over 45 mins in a line that really didn't even go to the hot bar. Come to find out there really wasn't a line people were just all over the place. I do think they could have did a better job of managing the crowds since they know the brisket sandwich is popular. I do think the convenience for a gas station is very nice- lots of to-go food options you can see being made right in front of your eyes! However, prices are a little high like $14 for the brisket sandwich and $4 for a puddling cup but I get you are paying for a gas station. The checkout is very smooth as they have a checkout counter at all exits. I did not know this until I watched a YouTube video as there could have been better signage throughout the store. read more

Finally made a stop at Buc-ee's, and when I say this place was big... NO, it was HUGE!! Hahaha. We came on a Sunday, so it was extra busy. I asked the cashier if it was always this packed, and she mentioned there were a lot of churches around. It honestly felt like Disneyland with the amount of people squeezing past each other! There were lines everywhere, especially at the food stations, but surprisingly, they moved pretty quickly. We grabbed the pulled pork sandwich and BBQ sliced brisket sandwich, and OMG, both were amazing! The meat was so tender, juicy, and flavorful. Absolutely mouthwatering! We only got one of each, and honestly, we should've gotten more lol. For snacks, we tried the banana pudding, Beaver Nuggets, and candied pecans. The banana pudding was just meh. It did have real bananas, which I appreciated, but the flavor itself was nothing special. The Beaver Nuggets were also not what I was expecting. They were okay, just a sweet, crunchy caramel snack. If you have a major sweet tooth, you'll probably enjoy them more than I did. Now, the candied pecans... SO GOOD! Sweet, crunchy, and perfectly cinnamony. Definitely one of my favorite snacks from the trip! And can we talk about the gas stations?! There were SO many pumps! It was like a Costco gas station on steroids hahaha. I've never seen anything like it! Overall, Buc-ee's was definitely an experience! A little overwhelming with the Sunday crowd, but the food was delicious, the snack selection was huge, and there was so much to look at. I'd definitely stop by again, especially for those BBQ sandwiches and candied pecans! read more

Came for the grand opening & it lived up to my expectations. Very good crowd control & a very warm, friendly atmosphere. Yes, it was crowded but seeing all the awestruck first-timers was worth it. I'm a seasoned Buc-ee's girl, as I've now been to my fourth, & I love it even more each time. The CLEANEST restrooms on the planet, 120 gas pumps so waiting to fill up your ride, the best selection of snacks & treats, most awesome brisket sandwiches, the tastiest fudge around, the coolest souvenirs, an awesome mascot, & a wide variety of home decor make the drive here all worth the while. Not to mention the perfect stop en route to/from California, Goodyear will BENEFIT from having this location as well. If you're not a crowd person, you may want to wait until the hype dies down to come check this place out. read more

Buc-ee’s - Gas Stations Near Me - Goodyear, Arizona

Visited Buc-ee's in Goodyear during opening week, and I was honestly surprised by how incredibly organized everything was despite the crowds being beyond belief. The employees were friendly, polite, and working hard to keep things running smoothly. There was plenty of police presence helping with traffic and safety, and the store was well-stocked overall, even though some merchandise was understandably selling out quickly each day. As for the food--wow. The brisket sandwich was a solid 10/10. Buc-ee's chips were another 10/10, and the Beaver Nuggets were a 9/10. The fresh jerky bar was outstanding, and the packaged jerky selection was just as impressive. I'm absolutely in love with the Steakhouse Jerky and the Lemon Pepper Jerky--both are must-tries. Opening week at a brand-new location could have been chaotic, but Buc-ee's exceeded expectations. We will definitely be back! read more

Arizona finally has its first Buc-ee's. The place is huge! There are plenty of gas pumps, snacks, drinks, souvenirs, clothing, lotions, and just about anything you can imagine. Of course, we got the beef burritos, brisket sandwich, beef jerky, and different flavors of the Beaver Nuggets. We were so busy checking out the store that I totally forgot to check out their restrooms. I never thought I'd be disappointed because I forgot to check out a gas station bathroom! Whether you're stopping for gas, grabbing a meal, or just curious about the hype, it's a fun stop at least once. read more

Beaver nuggets , jerky, nuts, and a cinnamon roll pull a part. While we were in the store, we heard the brisket call a couple times. There were so many varieties of things that they sell. I mean all flavors of everything. It was a lot but what more can you expect at a Buc'ees. The staff were nice and were definitely on point with how busy it was. The pricing for items were moderate I would say. The brisket sandwich was $8.99. I did not get gas. I came for the meat! read more

We drove up from Tucson at 7 am and arrived at 9 am, 7/3. At that time was busy, but no line to get in. The bakery line was slow, but selection was good. Service was great. Same for the fudge line. BBQ was long line, but moved quick. No xxl sandwich or sliced brisket until after 10:30. Honestly, compared to QT, the sandwich I ate was about same. Phoenix area local BBQ and Rudy's are all WAY better than this. The Walls of Jerky were well stocked. No Sugar Bohemian Garlic is the best!

YESSSSSS! I have been stopping by Buc-ee's near Austin with every trip to Texas. No, it's not just a gas station! It's an experience, sort of like Stuckey's used to be. No big rigs, just passenger vehicles. After flying in to Austin, we still have another 2 hours on the road. So we stop by Buc-ee's and load up on snacks to make it on down the road. Our favorites are the BBQ sandwiches and Kolaches. Really, what they call a Kolache are really pigs-in-the-blanket. Or as the Czechs call them, Klobasnek. Whatever you call them, they are delicious and hard to find in Arizona until now! They are only sold in the AM so get there early! In addition to every sort of hot sandwich, there are vegetable trays, desserts and snacks galore. You just have to see it all to get it. And lots of merch! House curios and of course Buc-ee's gifts as far as the eye can see! We were at this location the first week it opened. That is the largest crowd I've ever navigated. I don't know how they all kept up. Oh yeah, they do have reasonably priced gas as well at any of their 120 pumps. Yep, you just have to experience it yourself! And of course the are open 24/7! read more

Now I can say I had the Buc-ees experience! The bathrooms are clean, nice stalls, light above the stall to let you know if it's occupied or not, and well maintained. There are a lot of gas pumosnwhoch makes it nice for all the travelers. Inside is quite large and there is something for everyone. I do wish there were more gluten free options but I'm not complaining with what is there now. read more

Buc-ee’s - Gas Stations Near Me - Goodyear, Arizona

Buc-ee's grand opening has been hyped on tv, social media, etc. I always had wanted to visit, but was never near one of their locations. When the Goodyear AZ location opened, I had to try it out. Needless to say, with dozens of gas pumps and a building the size of a big box store, the place is huge. The facility is brand new, so (almost) everything is neat and clean. I must say I expected large crowds, but what I found was ridiculous. It was so packed with people that I don't think I'll visit again for several months. The freeway exit required circling Goodyear, then circling the parking lot. Once a parking space was located and I entered the building, I found people packed like sardines, crowds around food stations with no designated lines and employees who had difficulty making their way through the crowd to restock items. It was a mad house! I was only able to make my way through about 1/3 of the building. It was so chaotic and hot inside that I had to grab a fraction of what I wanted, pay for them (long lines of course) and leave. The Orange Cranberry Muffin was top notch, though I found the Sausage and Cheese Kolache and Beaver Nuggets underwhelming. Luckily, prices were decent. Buc-ee's is known for having the cleanest restrooms in America. This was not my experience with toilet paper all over the floor. Good thing there was an attendant on duty and probably didn't get to that particular stall just yet. If the person who left their phone in the stall is reading this, I gave it to the restroom attendant to add to their lost and found. Buc-ee's has potential to be great, but I'll wait quite a while for the crowds to die down a bit. read more

Went in specifically for the Mac and cheese brisket bowl, and it did not disappoint. I was disappointed to see employees preparing food although wearing gloves, they would open ovens, move baking sheets, print labels, then go back to making burritos - never changing gloves. read more

My family and I visited this location on Wednesday, June 24th, around 8:00 PM during the grand opening week. As expected, the location was extremely busy, and while we were excited to visit, there were a few areas that could be improved to enhance the overall customer experience. The traffic detour leading to the location was hectic and added several minutes to our travel time. While there appeared to be a significant police presence in the area, there was very little direction being provided once vehicles entered and exited the parking lot. Better traffic management would have helped create a smoother flow for customers arriving and leaving. It took us approximately 20 minutes to find a parking space due to the large crowds. Once inside, we noticed the building felt quite warm. We understand there were many customers visiting during the grand opening, but it seemed as though the air conditioning may not have been operating at full capacity. The store itself was much larger than it appeared from the outside and offered a spacious layout with a wide variety of products. However, because of the large crowds, navigating certain areas became challenging. One of the biggest issues we encountered was confusion regarding the food service lines. Many customers were unsure where lines began and ended, which resulted in people unintentionally cutting ahead of others who had been waiting. It would be helpful if associates could better organize and monitor the lines, especially around the sandwich stations, to ensure a fair and orderly process. Our daughter wanted to try the famous cinnamon beef nuggets that she had heard about online. We also purchased the barbecue beef brisket sandwiches. The sandwiches were freshly made, flavorful, and generously portioned. While they were very good, I personally felt that the $9 price point was slightly high and would have been more reasonable at around $7. We also visited the fudge station, which was one of the highlights of our visit. It was enjoyable watching the fudge being made and seeing the large variety of flavors available. Customers could sample different flavors before purchasing, and there was a great promotion where purchasing four pieces of fudge earned two additional pieces free. At $3.99 per piece, we were able to get six pieces for approximately $17, which was a good value. Unfortunately, the turkey breast sandwiches had sold out by the time we arrived, which disappointed many customers who were looking for alternatives to beef options. After purchasing our sandwiches and a few additional items, we decided to check out and leave, as the parking lot and store remained extremely crowded and somewhat chaotic. Overall, we enjoyed our visit and appreciated the fresh food, fudge selections, and spacious store layout. Given that it was grand opening week, some of the challenges were understandable. I hope that in the coming weeks and months, improvements will be made regarding traffic flow, parking lot management, temperature control inside the building, and organization of food service lines. With better crowd management, this location has the potential to provide an even better experience for customers. For four barbecue beef brisket sandwiches an order of fudge and Beaver nuggets added up to the total of $62 so be prepared for the amount of money you will spend in the store. And we noticed they do have buy one get one free drinks as well. read more

Actually, 3.5 bc gas is cheap but man, this place was packed! They had tons of snacks, Buc-ee's souvenirs, and food but the lines were so long and we really didn't want to spend precious travel time here. We need to be gettin' places, ya know? Haha. 2 kinds of Beaver nuggets, the fresher ones in the clear cellophane bag and the "factory made" ones in snack bag pouches. Pick the fresher ones. The peanut and candy mixes are great btw. Ultimate road trip stop. The crowds make it more festive than it really is, lol. read more

I was really hoping that Buc-ee's was going to be worth the highly anticipated visit due to all the attention they get. Safe to say I really can see why this place has such a fan following. First off, the 3-meat sandwich with chopped brisket, turkey, and sausage was delicious! The sausage and turkey worked really well on the sandwich and for only $12.99 that was a great deal! Also an amazing item was the chips in the red little basket. Some of best homemade chips I've ever had and a great side to the sandwich. The pimento cheese was abysmal. Probably the worst one I've had. We were also able to try out some of the jerky's and the garlic was my favorite one. Also not sure how there gas prices are so cheap but was almost 80 cents cheaper than frys on the day I went. Overall a really cool experience and super glad that we have one now in AZ. read more
