Our third Buc-ee's on this trip and the first one in Texas. This one in Madisonville is very consistent with the brand, from the large covered gas pump areas, the huge inside shopping area with jerky and fudge and "fresh brisket on the board!" and of course, the cleanest restrooms. At 5:00 pm on a weeknight, it was quite busy. Mrs. K. is now addicted to the Beaver Nuggets that are drizzled with caramel. Light crunchy corn pops with sugar, it's easy to zip through a bag if you're not careful! We picked up our fridge magnet as well and were on the way after about 20 minutes. It's hard to rate a Buc-ee's as anything less than five stars. Clean, efficient and a great spot for snacks. [Review 362 of 2026 - 686 in Texas - 25548 overall]
If you're doing a road trip through Texas and need to stop for a restroom break, Buc-ee's is a great spot. We stopped on our trip from Dallas to Houston for the Houston Rodeo. The bathrooms are always clean and there are so many that I've never had to wait. This is good for a women's bathroom. The food options are also great. The ambiance and service are excellent. The only drawback to going to Buc-ee's is the crowd. There's always a lot of people there.
I've come to this Buc-ee's a couple of times and I've gotten great quick service. They have a large selection of foods and merchandise. The employees are happy to be here. The bathrooms are cleaned as to be expected. Bi matter how busy it is like during the holidays I can get it and out quickly because it's always staffed fully.
If you are in TX on a road trip, Buc-ee's is the place to be even if you don't need gas. Their restrooms are like mall parking where they have red light, green light directing guests to occupied versus vacant stalls. Their massive restroom was well kept with no broken stalls and it was clean even though it was pretty busy. Their massive selection of jerkies will have you stand there contemplating what to get (you can ask for samples). The hot food area always have a line (which this location did as well). And don't forget to grab their famous candied pecans that are sweet and crunchy and the beaver nuggets (these are strategically placed near the cash register). Staff here worked quickly were friendly. Some gas pumps were occupied by people who were not pumping gas so pay attention to see if someone is inside the car before you line up for gas. They have a separate parking lot for customers who are not getting gas.
Initially, I thought there was only one Buc ee's between Houston and Dallas, but this is the first of two--the other is located in Ennis. But if you happen to be taking a road trip to Fort Worth (as I was), and you take the 287 exit, you can go to the Buc ee's in Fort Worth but will miss Ennis. Anyways, Madisonville is a good first stop coming out of Houston. However, it can get really crowded in this location--the most crowded Buc ee's I've ever experienced. I still think of the Baytown and Texas City Buc ee's locations as my favorites, and I would rate both a 5. This Buc ee's is just a 4, in my opinion. If I'm hungry and stopping at a Buc ee's, sometimes I'll grab a chopped brisket sandwich. I remember when these only cost $5-6. These days, it's basically an $8 sandwich. The one I got had way too much gelatinous fat in it (I do like the tiny amount of fat between the bark and brisket when sliced). This makes me rethink getting it. Granted, most BBQ places charge over $12 for chopped brisket anything these days. But I probably won't be as quick to grab one next time. I also think this Buc ee's should have been designed differently, but that's just me. I think the sections lacked prominent signage. The restrooms are placed towards the end of one's walk across the store. I thought the restrooms could have been cleaner, but there was no visible attendant as I've seen at other Buc ee's locations. Re: gasoline, most fill up spots were taken, so it was kind of tough to find a place to fill up. The best part of my visit was the friendly cashier at checkout. 4/5
The smell of freshly made fudge, hand-turned roasted cashews, and slices of warm brisket lets out a sigh of relief in me when I enter a Buc-ee's. The crowd gathers like a grand opening of a new restaurant, consisting of families on long roadtrips or locals driving half an hour for a weekly restock. For newcomers, the idea that a gas station can be so yearned for is almost unheard of. But in Texas, an instrumental part of driving through cities is stopping by one of these coveted sanctuaries. My favorites at Buc-ee's: Sweet and Spicy Beef Jerky: Biting into the refrigerated, bulk section samples hits me two-fold: I initially taste the sweetness, pairing well with the savoriness of dried beef. Moments later, a slow burn begins to build within my taste buds, a numbing sensation starts at the center of my tongue. I ask for a second sample, and it quickly hits a crescendo, for two small pieces is all there is needed before I quickly head to the bottled water rush to the cashier. Yet the feeling is addicting. Once the spice leaves me I am yearning for more. I ask for 2lbs to take home. Lemon pepper: For those not as adventurous, lemon pepper offers a flavor profile that is an equal match without the mental battle. The beef is cured a little tougher with less brown sugar, requiring the jaw a couple more chews before malleable enough to eat. The pepper stings in variant intervals, but the faint lemon flavor radiates through you, leaving enough to reach again and grab another piece of jerky.
None of us had ever been to a Buc-ee's and we all decided that we'd have at least one experience shopping and just looking around. A few of the staff members were pleasant and some were kinda rude when you asked them questions. This Super Center gas station, is massive on the inside and the flow of business is phenomenal. Who ever had the thought process to create such a Gas station that offered decent food, quality clothing, and attire. Was Brilliant, We got a few tacos and burritos. Excellent, very tasty food. If I'm ever in TX. I'll definitely stop at a Buc-ee's to grab a few things.
This was my first time at a Buc-ees. I arrived around 10:30 AM on a Friday and it wasn't too busy. This place is absolutely massive. The employees do an amazing job of getting the customers in/out in a timely manner. Restrooms are extremely clean. I really need to try the food but I haven't been hungry when I stopped. This is truly a highway destination and worth the time detour. I stopped at two more Buc-ees the next two days during my Texas travels.
This place is massive! Despite its size with nearly a hundred gas pumps or more and just as many bathrooms, this place is regularly packed with people. The good news is that the staff are amazing at serving customers and keeping the place clean and well stocked. I would always choose to go to a Buc-ee's over a smaller gas station because I can always count on the cleanliness of the facility. In addition, there is some delicious roadtrip snacks and food to indulge in. The wall of jerky is huge, but head to the back counter to get it freshly wrapped and sample some of the flavors they offer. Reserve time and stretch your legs while you browse through the merchandise they offer. If you forgot to pack something on your vacation, you can buy it here...bathing suits, beach towels, shirts, electronic accessories, BBQ grill, hammock, gifts, etc. They've thought of everything. Be sure to bring your out-of-state friends. While Buc-ee's is expanding across the US, they have the most locations right here in the Lone Star state.
This loved up to the hype that it's given. It was a well run operation, you saw the managers out on the floor and every team member was busy ensuring great guest service. They have such a wide selection of literally everything, . Food, they have you covered, clothing, yup that too, memorabilia yup that too, oh you said you want to take a shower, that too, oh you broke your deer feeder, pick that up here as well, dessert and fudge oh yeah they got that, your car needs oil and transmission fluid, umm yup, you need tools to do that job, yup. This is an experience in of itself.
I LOVE Buc-ee's!!! Cleanest bathrooms ever and such a great place to stop on road trips. They have fair prices on the snacks and drinks which is comparable to local grocery store prices. Their customer service is always great here, too! Overall, it's always a pleasure stopping here on our trips from Houston to Dallas. However, there's one massive issue that I really need for Buc-ee's to fix: vegetarian options!!!! They have a few counters dedicated to serving hot food and among them, they only have ONE vegetarian option total - a veggie burrito. They used to have a grilled cheese sandwich but that has recently disappeared. This is both disappointing and frustrating because we have to make an additional stop to find a vegetarian meal for both me and my husband as we're not a fan of this burrito here. Mr. Beaver, I know that you're a born-and-raised Texan, but please know that times are definitely changing and not everyone in Texas eats meat! Please, for the sake of all vegetarians out there, add a couple more menu options that don't include meat. I promise you will make more money if you can create more vegetarian menu options for us!! Please and thank you!
Can't believe that this is my first visit to Buc-ee's! We were traveling on I-45 and had to stop by to get gas. I was almost fascinated by how large and B U S Y it was!!! The bathrooms were busy, but I love how they have Texas-themed artwork on the walls and at the entrance. Additionally, there was seat sanitizer and hand sanitizer available in each stall!! I wish every bathroom had those. This was the highlight of my buc-ee's trip. I managed to take a small tour of the immediate area near the bathrooms. There were so many coffee options! If it weren't so late, i definitely would have tried it. They just had everything in abundance (go figure, since it's Texas...) including meats, drinks, snacks, etc. I think my pictures pretty much speak for themselves! Unfortunately, we were in a hurry to get home, so we didn't get a chance to really look around...except for whatever was on the way to the bathrooms...and back out the exit. Would I return? absolutely!!
Who doesn't love Buc-ee's, the Disneyland of convenience stores? It's always a destination stop anywhere I'm driving. In this instance, on the way to Dallas. Food and snack selection are plentiful. Beverage options run deep. The staff is always friendly, perhaps because they pay quite well. Cleanest bathrooms anywhere is their calling card. Don't forget to check out the merchandise. Gotta love the beaver.

On our drive from Dallas to Houston we had to drop by here. I have never been to a Buc-ee's before and this was my first experience. I was overwhelmed by all the goodies and how busy they were. When first entering we were greeted by their Buc-ee mascot. They were merch and swag items. As for foods they had packaged ready to go items, such as their nuts, candies, cookies, and chips. I love that they had some of their staff handing out samples of their mixed nuts. Yum! They also had lots of sweets, including their popular banana pudding and key lime pie. Other popular items included their BBQ brisket sandwiches and slurpees of flavors you can't get anywhere else. It was quite an experience and recommend for anyone who has never been before. read more

We made a quick pit-stop on our way back to Dallas. The worlds largest convenience store chain. Buc-ee's literally has everything you need to keep everyone happy on your trip to wherever you're going. Speciality candy, coffee, soft drinks, BBQ brisket sandwiches, tacos, roasted nuts, cookies, Beaver Nuggets, and so, so much more. They even sell clothes, souvenirs, and canvas paintings. Prices are very affordable, so you can stock up on all your favorites. Bathrooms are very clean, and the staff is friendly and helpful. If you ever find yourself passing by a Buc-ee's, I highly recommend you immediately do a U-turn and go back. It will be worth the stop. Highly Recommended! read more

1 star for the mascot. But everything else about this place is terrible. -terrible line for pumps -100+ pumps occupied by locked empty cars of people shopping inside -buc-ees employees when asked about this say they have no official policy about blocking pumps -bathrooms were dirty -massive lines for bathrooms read more
Bathrooms still get 10 stars if that was possible but the chips I bought was NOT good! It was stale. The most expensive dried veggie chips I bought and it was on the shelf for maybe the whole year.... never buying those here again read more

Buc-ee's on Highway or Interstate 45 First thing you notice this place is as busy as a mall on Black Friday and these seems like an everyday occurrence . Got to give thanks to the restrooms they have an attended in there this place is clean and well taken care of one of the biggest things when people grow on road trip State want well taken care and clean restrooms and hands down their number one. Also they constantly putting out sandwiches and people are constantly grabbing them as soon as they put them out. I would say the price is pretty high but for what you are getting in this establishment and the service it is worth the price keep up the good work. read more

Buc-ee's is my favorite pit stop when I'm traveling out of Houston. I enjoy coming here because they have everything you need to get you back on the road again. They have the gift shop area, hot/cold food, snacks/drinks, jerky's, popcorn etc. If you want a quick bite they have a kiosk where you can place your order and they'll call it out when it's ready. They also make their brisket sandwich fresh, which in my opinion taste wise it's just alright. My favorite thing to grab is their sausage on the stick with tortilla. It runs out very fast so you'll have to wait for them to make it. I tend to leave the store with a snack or two but I end up buying like 30-50 dollars worth of stuff lol. Overall, great service considering its extremely busy & so much to pick from. Will I come back? You bet I will. Tip: they have a lot of lanes to fill your tank, so there's really no wait even if it's busy. read more

Buc-ee's is hands down the best travel stop ever! The cleanest restrooms, an insane selection of snacks, and the friendliest staff. Their brisket sandwiches are fresh made in front you and the Beaver Nuggets are addictive. If you are beef jerky lovers , you have more than 10 flavors to choose from .Plus, the sheer size of the place is mind-blowing! Whether you need gas, souvenirs, or just a fun pit stop, Buc-ee's never disappoints. read more

Had to stop at Buc-ee's while in Texas! It did not disappoint! Coming from Wisconsin, we have Kwik Trip. This is like Kwik Trip on steroids! Definitely impressed! You could spend all day looking at the jerky section alone! The hot foods were excellent! That brisket is a must try! For gas station food, I can say it's the best I've eaten anywhere. Very cool gas station. Lots of neat souvenirs and snacks to be found. Take your time and wander. It was pretty busy both times we stopped thru. read more

When I knew that we were traveling to Texas, I immediately checked my bucket list destinations. Buc-ee's was one of my "Must Visit" places. I had heard incredible things about this convenience store chain, and I must say that it exceeded my mile high expectations! It is even better than anything I could have dreamed of. Let me call them a MEGA 7-Eleven Store on Steroids!!!!!!!!! Nah, that would be an understatement. Drove into the large parking lot to find that this store seemed to be the size of a neighborhood Walmart Store. The number of gas pumps was impressive!! Maybe there were almost 100 gas pumps. Just so dang many, and they all had vehicles. Walked into the main entrance of the Buc-ee's to find Organized Chaos!! There must of been a few hundred folks milling around this gigantic convenience store. Despite all the people, the store still appeared spacious. The aisles are not cramped. There is plenty of room to roam, and the merchandise is displayed professionally and efficiently. So unlike many chain stores. The restrooms were immaculate. I know that the Men's restroom was very very very very clean cause I went there myself. My wife said the ladie's restroom may have been the cleanest she has ever seen at a gas station before. There are several dozen urinals, stalls, and sinks in the men's room. There is a staff member roaming the restroom to keep it clean and tidy. Awesome and impressive job especially considering the multitude of guys walking in and out of there. Kudos to the cleaning crew! The selection of merchandise was astounding! Part of the store had an apparel and general merchandise section. We did purchase a couple of souvenir Buc-ee's t-shirts at a reasonable price. I loved checking out the rest of the store for snacks and goodies. They carry a bunch of private label Buc-ee's items. Bought some of their classic Beaver Nuggets, and these snacks tasted fantastic!! They also have various food sections. I bought a couple of tasty items from their bakery case. Nuts from their nuts section. The bags of Glazed Almonds and Glazed Pecans were fresh, hot, and delectable!! Even the food from their Hot foods area was delicious. We shared a Sliced BBQ Brisket Sandwich and a Chopped Bbq Brisket Sandwich. Both were fresh and delicious. Seriously, those brisket sandwiches were better than most bbq spots we visited on our trip to Texas. I cannot say enough good things about Buc-ee's!! We visited a few of their locations on this Texas trip, but this one may have been my ultimate favorite. Thank you for an EPIC experience Buc-ee's!!!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! read more

Clean restrooms, clean facility, so much food... and people! As fast-paced as it is with all the people, there are as many employees to keep get people out just as quickly. Food isn't bad either! A wild assortment of jerkies and fresh barbeque read more
Small little Buccees on the way home o Nac. Even though it is smaller than other Buccees it has all the offerings you've come to live from the larger Buccees. Good restrooms, gas, and snacks! Buccees that's what I live about Texas ;) Tip: grab some potato chips or a cake ball! read more

Best clean restrooms around! LOTS of gas pumps and bathrooms!! Stopped in here for gas and potty stop at 11:30 am today (Saturday of Memorial Day weekend) and it was a zoo! Barely any extra parking spaces. There were so many people walking in circles I felt like an ant in an anthill! Took a good 15 minutes to exit the parking lot and get back on the highway. There was even a line to find an available bathroom stall and then there was a line to wash your hands at the sink. I gave up trying to find some food or snacks, just wanted to get away from all those people! I stopped here when I was heading south on IH45 a few weeks ago and got my warm sugar coated almonds, they are addictive! As I was driving onward towards Dallas, I glanced at the Buc-ee's in Ennis and they weren't nearly as crowded. This Madisonville location is a perfect halfway stopping location between Houston and Dallas so that's probably why it's so (over)crowded! read more

Stopped in before arriving back home to Houston. 2nd Buc-ee's stop of this trip today. Found great customer service, everyone was smiling and willing to help. Clean restrooms and great variety in store. Purchased another 5# bag of pecans to send to Chicago since they don't have a Buc-ee's there. They seemed to have different items from the previous stop in Ennis, Tx and I recommend any and all Buc-ee's locations for their variety. read more
