    Beverages, snacks, beer, cigarettes, food, phone chargers, miscellaneous items and a Cinnabon kitchen with fresh cinnamon rolls. I bought a soda, there were no lids, I asked an employee where the lids were. His response was curt. I found the spot lids were supposed to be but my size was empty. I brought this to his attention, he was abrupt. Service to purchase my drink was slow. Maybe the counter person was new or something else. There is a gas station outside, too. This rating is based on attitude of employee regarding the soft drink lids and slow service.

    Nice clean Mav with a free rv dump station too! This Mav on hwy 50 in Carson City has always had a good rap with me. Consider signing up for their nitro card and link to your bank account. In exchange for cutting out the middle man you'll get BIG discounts at the pump. Like today premium was $4.49/gallon and swiped the nitro card and price went down to $4.15/gallon. That's huge savings in my opinion especially over time a long period of time!

    Whether on a road trip, traveling, or in town wanting snacks, Maverik is your one-stop shop. It's a definite must that we stop for their nachos before the drive ins with my family. I love that they're popping up everywhere, and their coffee is my new favorite! It's better than Starbucks. Their coffee machines are user-friendly like a Keurig, but you select your flavor on the digital screen, and it will ask for size and if you'd like room for cream. Their house is my personal favorite. Off the top of my head, I believe there are 3 other blends. I have tried the darker roast. It wasn't for me, but it was still good. I worked in Dayton and Carson for the better part of two weeks, and I loved grabbing a hot breakfast sandwich and / or breakfast burrito made fresh inside and, of course, refilling my coffee. If there is Maverik where I'm working, one thing for sure is you'll find me hanging out nearby. I fell in love with the location out in Minden when I worked nearby for months over last summer. The employees are always friendly and helpful, and their restrooms are always the cleanest. Do yourself a favor next time you're in one and give their coffee a try.

    Went back to get fuel and use the restroom. Needless to say I only got fuel, do to the disgusting bathroom.

    Great breakfast sandwiches when you need something quick on the go. Good selection of products and quality gasoline.

    We watched them build this place from the ground up. This empty area has languished for years and we really hoped they'd put up a cool restaurant that we could walk to. Well, the next best thing is the high tech, clean, fresh, inviting, well stocked, always open Maverik Gas Station. We walked over to give it a look. Similar to the other Maverik in town, and different at the same time. The store is set up about the same but might be a bit bigger. So far, it's "clean as a whistle" inside. Lots of 'junk food' (like every mini-mart) so if that's what you're after, this is your place. If you're on the Atkins Diet, steer clear. They have a 'make-it-yourself' milk shake station where you take the basic ice cream starter, put it in the mixer, and decide if you want it thicker, thinner, or middle of the road. Press the button and VIOLA - milk shake. However, after looking at the carb and calorie count, I passed. But that's just me. I have to watch these things at my age. If I was still in my 20's I might be here every day for one of these! Wine and beer abound. Bottles, cans, and yes, even "boxed wine". This could be considered one stop shopping to some. Hot and cold sandwiches as well. You want quick pizza? No problem. Need a Cinnabon fix? Yup. it's here too, and made fresh all day. But beware. We watched some being made. This is something else I have to avoid, but again, that's just me. Calories in the high hundreds (880!), and carbs well over 100 (127!), and that's just in the basic 'bon'. If you get into some of the other more fancy Cinnabon creations, it gets even WORSE. But for most people, this beats kale chips, wheat grass juice, and carob covered tofu. The bathrooms are immaculate, with a bit of high tech thrown in with the fancy wash basins. There is a pleasant outside seating area for when it's pleasant . . . rare until just recently. Wifey and I sat here with a beer and some chips (the least offensive 'food' offering) and watched the world go by. Something else that's different here is the RV dump site. That's right, a place to empty your RV's black and grey tanks, a clean up hose, and a fresh water spigot as well. The dump opened with your foot like most do, and the fresh water spigot worked, but the clean up hose did not. Maybe because we're all still afraid winter will come back in one night. This appears to be free. There is a pay site to air your tires. And finally, they DO sell gas here! That's right. Lest we forget the reason for this establishment in the FIRST place. All grades (and an ethanol free selection as well, which I've never seen before). And of course, diesel. There's a separate island for bigger than Prius style rigs (RV's, trucks, bubba sized pickups, U-Hauls, etc). So, thumbs up to the new Maverik in town!

I was happy to see they were open and went in and placed my order to-go for a chicken quesadilla, quesabirria tacos and an asada burrito. I tried everything and it was fresh and hot. The salsas were delicious and the hot red is spicy. I love eating grilled chiles with my favorite Mexican meals and appreciated the extras in my plate. Service was fairly quick and just as quickly as my order went in, it came out. I sat off to the side and watched three women working together in this small kitchen to get the orders our out and worked in beautiful harmony. Family run establishments and local businesses are my favorite to support. I think this one needs more kudos. They are attatched to the country store gas station in Carson. I believe there are just five tables in this dining room and seemed to have tables outside as well. Prices were good for the amount of food I got. I'll take that as a win in this economy. The only downside were the chips, but everything else was delicious! I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the area!

There are so many tasty-looking choices. We've found them perfect for sharing, and this last time around they also offered us a sample of their homemade potato salad, which tastes like it was made fresh for a picnic right on the spot. We've also appreciated how clean both locations were, and how friendly the service staff was. I think the owner might have been working at the Hot Potato Pie 2 location, because we asked when they'll be coming to Reno and he said soon, coming to Virginia Ave. While stopping for a lunch potato has been a highlight of multiple Carson City trips for us recently, we're very much looking forward to easier access now that they're going to be local to us in Reno :)

I understand that they have specific vendors to get their food supplies from. But they ran out of a main ingredient on a Monday and couldn't substitute in a local sourced product? On top of that, they couldn't call and let me know? So I get their and told "We're out of sweet potatoes, we refunded it." Handed me my bag like that was it. I meal for 2 people. I then asked if they had a soup option. Was told yeah, birra. 10 min later that was ready. Not coming back, now waiting to see if I get a refund for the missing potato. I paid for the soup separately. The service was slow and very apathetic. Like they didn't want to be there. If you decide to try this place, go in person to put in your order. Don't rely on the website for accurate info. Edit: 4 days later and the promised refund of $15 is still not on my catd. Supposedly the put it in and it was cleared by their processor. I still don't see it though. Plus, the manager I talked to was rude and hung up on me.

Finally, I knew they would be parked at the Bank Saloon with some live music on the patio. What better time to stop?

I honestly think the cheese curds may have been the best I've ever had. Better than Culver's! The burger was great too with juicy patties and crispy bacon. I will certainly go back to Candy Burger when I can hunt them down next. Luckily they are often out and about on the weekend evenings in Carson! Worth the search!
