This location is comparable to the size of any "normal" convenience store. Think 7-11 and the like. Again, though it's smaller, they've got all the quick grabs we know and love. Great service. Clean store. Yay, to the B to the E...Buc-ee's!

Im going to be harsher on the rest drop than others because Buc-ee's has set the bar so high…read more I grew up around smaller Buc-ee's and was in shock went I saw my first Gas Pro Shop mega location. This Giddings spot is tiny but mighty with a small deduction of the normal beaver fare, clean restrooms and drink stations, and a fair amount of pumps. However, they lack the quality I have come to expect. Specifically, the coffee station gained my ire this time. The last 2 times I have stopped here, the coffee was bad. Like Circle K bad. Burnt and tasteless. And they lack the space for the cold creamers to hide the flavor. The carafes are too low to fit a large cup under so you have to tilt them, risking hot coffee split across your hand. At least it isn't as hot as McD's.

Great quality value selection & service. I will def use this gas station from now onread more

One of the better gas stations, but that means it's always busy…read more I've stopped at this gas station for years and am always very impressed with how they up keep it. It's easy to access off the feeder, and the parking lot is laid out in a way that helps reduce traffic. The mcdonalda here has its own drivethrough. It also has a big seating area and several ordering screens so you don't get stuck in a line. The restrooms are spacious and clean. I wish they had paper towels in addition to the air dryers but unfortunately they don't. The convenience store has all the usual things and some extra gift shopping items. They do now have electric car chargers ! However, they could use more gas pumps. They have a reasonable amount but here (more than other places) people will leave their car parked in a spot to go inside and there's often a wait. One of my favorite things (as someone who travels with dogs) is they have a lot of nice grassy areas not directly on the busy feeder road.

Pilot Travel Center is one of the most reliable gas stations for road trips…read more Every time we go on a trip around Texas, we make sure to stop at Pilot Travel Center because they usually have the cheapest gas price, plus their bathrooms are usually in good condition and they have a wide selection of food items for everyone in the family. This particular location is conveniently located right halfway between San Antonio and Houston. They have a Taco Bell location attached to their main building, but also offer other already prepared meal options. The bathrooms are located on the right side of the building. The women's bathrooms does not have as many stalls as compared to other Pilot Travel Center locations so keep that in mind if you are stopping here during a busy time. When you visit make sure to sign up for their rewards points so you can save on gas and other items. They also offer a 10% military discount on items you purchase inside their store.

Stopped there this morning thinking I could get me a quick breakfast and a hot cup of coffee and I…read moregot the opposite. Coffee was cold took one sip of it and threw it away and they had no hot breakfast available. That's pretty ridiculous for being a 24 hour truck stop Cashier was rude also. Don't waste your time there go to the nearby Texan.

We decided to stop in at the Texan on our way home. It's similar to another well known convenience…read morestore just down the road. While this store is much smaller the similarities do not go unnoticed. Clean bathrooms, hot prepared foods, lots of beverage choices, snacks, and touristy souvenirs are just a few of the things you will find here. One thing that did trouble me was that there weren't prices on things. I saw a cute stuffed toy I considered purchasing, but I couldn't find a price. Saw a cool baseball cap I considered purchasing--no price. I did like that it wasn't as crowded as its competitor. This gave us the opportunity to browse without the crowds. The staff seemed somewhat friendly. Would we go back? Possibly. Oh, in case you were wondering, there were no Beaver Chips.

Even the restroom with the painting in the hallways are the same. Grabbed the kids icees. Decent amount of flavors to choose from. Smalls were $1.79, mediums $1.99. BUT the prices of the food seemed VERY VERY high. For instance, a TINY brisket/potato taco (which I could eat in like 3 bites) was $9!!!! No thanks. Cashier was friendly. She accidentally rang in 3 mediums but one was a small. I corrected her. NDB Cleanliness was top notch, just like Buc-ee's. We'd stop again.
