The large 80+ yr old sign out front of course is misleading, as this diner has more of the modern…read moreconcepts. You won't find sickly green booths with malted milk mixers etc., that the sign would indicate. A small efficient deli with a large selection of breakfast, lunch and snack items cooked fresh. Many of the sandwiches are prepared on a toasted bun which is delicious. The content was thick so I felt this was a great bargain at not ridiculous prices. *Loss of one star for lukewarm stale coffee in the air pot. *Family run but not cool to hear them complaining about someone, either an employee or family member. Just adds a negative tone.

Buckman's one and only gas station, convenience store, off sale liquor. There was a hiccup in the…read morebusiness for a couple of years (sold and then closed out of business) but now there's a new owner and recently reopened in Sept 2025. A clean place to stop along hwy 25 to fill up your tank (both car and stomach), stretch your legs or use the restroom. Offers affordable Marathon gas. I filled up for $2.83, when gas in the TC is over $3.00. They offer both a fridge for a grab and go deli sandwich or yogurt parfair, but also have a hot counter if you wanted a cheeseburger, chicken strips, or pizza. The owner and the help are friendly, and are really trying to keep this place a destination for both the locals and the weekenders. They were set up for trick or treaters tonight (Oct 31), and planning for a deer hunters give away for hunting opening, and have plans for a Ladies give away raffle in December. And more community events in the parking lot for next spring and summer. Wish them all the success a new business needs.

Such a friendly place to visit and get stocked up on meat. Their brats, hot dogs, steaks, jerky…read moreand meat sticks are always the best. I come back time and again for their very-thick, sliced bacon (8 slices to the pound) because it is the tastiest I've ever had. You may never go back to "grocery store bacon" again! Stop in on your way up to the lake and get your weekend's supply... you'll be back.

I have stopped here twice on my way through Isle. Both times it was really good. Today I had a…read moreMemphis style bbq chicken sandwich with chips. It was a big sandwich on a soft bun, all for $11. The last time I went through McDonald's while passing through Mora it was $15. The sandwich I had today was fresh, smoked right here, without preservatives. The owners (I'm only assuming they're the owners) who waited on me were exceptionally nice. I'd rather keep my money local. I have a cabin not terribly far away. I'll be back. FYI, they're mainly a meat market, so they only have a few sandwiches for sale. Don't expect a full menu. The other option today was a pulled pork with cheese.

Be sure to become a rewards member to get all of the coupons, deals and rewards points for gas discounts and contests entries. They have a full diesel fuel island that can support big rigs and trucks with trailers and a separate fuel island that carries gas up to 91 octane which is great for your small engine needs and hot rods and winter optimized diesel to get you through Minnesota's long winters. It is located just off the main highway to make for easy travels going North or South on 169 or East / West on HWY 23.

I've never had ribs this good for such a good price anywhere else. The parking is accessible in front of the restaurant. It is a big parking lot.
