I'm a Shell of my former self, since pumping gas here. Some of the best prices in the triangle…read more That's a term I made up to describe the area of Texas most commonly traversed... the triangle between Austin, Dallas and Houston. Poor San Antonio. Such a logical point of this triangle and forever left out of the national psyche. This Shell station is part of the Woody's Smokehouse Empire. They almost always have gas that is $0.10 or even 20 to 25 cents cheaper than all of the stations up and down the highway. They also caused the Chevron across the street to have really low gas prices. They have plenty of pumps on both sides of the highway and it's hard not to give them 5 stars.

The staff seemed nice enough - just working hard to ring up all the people buying their tchotchkes.

In my opinion the only things nice about this place are the restrooms. That's it. Have had better…read morecoffee from bona fide Texas truck stops. The first time there was - interesting. But each time after that it was just sad. The grands lived up in NE Texas so of course we were required to stop for the kids if they were in the truck. The last sandwich I had was a soggy mess on what looked like bread but tasted like cotton balls. Those nuggets reminded me a lot like Crunch n Munch but with a horrible aftertaste even their weak "coffee" couldn't wash away. It's been years since we've been back so I don't know if it's still true but it seemed to me those times that the greater portion of their branded merchandise and other "Texas" souvenirs were made in China. On that strip of I45 North there are other stops with a much more genuine Texas atmosphere and food. Try them instead. (photo from 2015)

The Picket is a convenience store that is on the way to several prisons in the Tennessee…read moreColony/Palestine area. It is a gas station/country grocery store. It is named after a structure that is located in all prisons - either the gun tower that is near the perimeter fence can sometimes be called a picket or most definitely the control room for a given prison wing where all the doors are controlled. Anyway, now that you have had your trivia lesson, here is what the Picket has. Of course, it has your random selection of sodas, candies, chips, and the like, and lotto, but it also has clothes. So, if you are in the Palestine area and suddenly remember that your Uncle Wallace is incarcerated at the Michael Unit and you decide to schedule a visitation but all you have with you are sleeveless t-shirts, no worries, you can pick up an assortment of outfits at the Picket that will pass TDCJ muster.

I have passed Maverick's no telling how many times! Monday I…read moredecided to stop in and see what it was all about!? They have several different choices, and they all sound good. I went with the cheeseburger, homemade potato salad and a drink. I think they said the potato salad recipe is 40 years old. Dang it was good!! The cheeseburger was excellent too! While I was paying out, the owner asked if I had ever tried their BBQ. Since this was my first time, I told him no. He said give me a minute. He went to the kitchen and brought me back about 4 pieces of brisket. It was very good! I'll be back, not only because the food is good, but the friendliness of those who work there is the Best!!

My elderly mother lost her phone there about a month ago and this girl not only brought it to the back and called my sister from it, but she charged my mothers phone for her!! Like whaaaa whose that nice? I wish I could remember her name, its something like Carla I think, or maybe not. Idk how gas stations work but please give her a raise- her hospitality is off the charts and for a gas station? Near Houston? I mean shes awesome, way too cool for you guys. Be more grateful for her because not just anyone would do that for a customer. Most people would pocket the phone or sell it. She didn't, if that girl is reading this thank you so much! I thank god for you. And please take care.
