    While traveling through Saint Albans we needed to fuel up so we decided to stop at this station…read morewhich has Sunoco gas. The gas prices here are reasonable, but be prepared to enter the store if you plan to use a debit card because the pumps refuse to take them. The staff here was great but the clientele is a bit rough around the edges. That being said, I felt comfortable stopping here and it reminded me of fueling up in one of the suburbs of Boston. Overall, not a terrible station but be prepared to be solicited by someone looking for change or money for cigarettes.

    Ah, the local convenience store. It's a chain gas brand (Sunoco) but it has the feel of a mom and…read morepop local yokel market. I also believe it's the ONLY Sunoco in town if any of you care or are pulled into the swindle that is the Price Chopper AdVANTage card as I am. Gas pumps are self serve and generally work pretty well for a quick fill up and get out. The market, well let's say there's a bit of a benefit in this also being a licensed Vermont State Liquour store. But don't go in expecting shelves upon shelves of discounted spirits lining the walls. Colonial, again, is very local feel without much effort to look "enticing". It's got a very low light ambiance to the place that seems to creep me out some when shopping in here. So I generally know what I want and just get out. Probably the brightest display in the store is the gigantic Vermont Lottery scratch off vending machine that looks bright and sparkly but likely just eats people's hard earned money every day to just eject some pieces of paper that end up as discarded scratched off trash within about 5 minutes...yeah not so bright and shiny when you think about it. They have most of the staples in a licensed Liquor store: vodka, whiskey, rum and other aged liquids. You likely won't find that rare bottle of 100 year old scotch...well maybe if it comes in the tiny airplane size. Have fun looking among the 4 shelves. Food choices are what you'd mostly expect of a convenience store: packaged doughnuts, plastic wrapped danishes with infinitely long expiration dates, Funyons...the usual. Prices aren't too bad, sometimes you can get close to a 2 for 1 deal on wine prices for things that taste like they come out of a cardboard box. I do have to say though, counter service is generally great here. Always quick and efficient and there's one kid who works here who always has a great positive demeanor among the low depressing lights in this store. That's good to see someone who can actually appear to enjoy working in a cave. But honestly, Colonial does what it's really supposed to do, be convenient. It doesn't do it with glitter and sparkles, it does it more with "we're here, off the main Fairfax Road, be happy about that and get back on the road" flair.
