    Buc-ee's definitely lives up to the hype. This location was incredibly clean from the parking lot…read moreto the inside of the store, and the restrooms were some of the cleanest I've ever seen at a gas station. I really appreciated that they even provide disinfectant and cleaning products so you can wipe down the toilet seat before using it--a small detail that shows they care about cleanliness. The selection of food and drinks is outstanding. Whether you're looking for hot meals, fresh sandwiches, cold grab-and-go items, snacks, or desserts, there's something for everyone. The coffee station is impressive too, with so many creamers, flavors, and toppings that you can customize your drink just the way you like it. I also loved the fresh roasted nuts--warm pecans, cashews, and other varieties that smelled amazing and tasted fresh. The store itself is huge and well organized, making it easy to browse without feeling crowded. As an EV owner, I was especially happy that I could charge my Ford F-150 Lightning while taking a break. Being able to recharge both myself and my truck in one stop made the experience even better. Overall, Buc-ee's is much more than a gas station--it's a clean, convenient, and enjoyable travel stop. If you're passing by, it's absolutely worth stopping.

    I come here quite a bit. My recent visit was to purchase a humidifier…read more The pharmacist answered my questions very quickly and made it easy to decide what was necessary to go along with my purchase. The cashier who completed my transaction was nice and helpful too. The CVS rewards program is great because you can get many useful coupons. Who doesn't love a discount or the opportunity to save money?! I love my new humidifier!

    "Help needed at the front!"…read more The first time I heard the announcement called over the store intercom, by the young woman at the front counter, to what appeared to be an otherwise empty store, I didn't make anything of her tone or her anodyne call for backup. I had made my way past the snack isle to the cooler, grabbed a soda, and brought it to the counter as the unoccupied cashier, who had called for backup, slinked away at my approach, awkwardly avoiding eye contact as her help (a man in street clothes) quickly took her station. So far none of this seemed too unusual for CVS at 2AM... Maybe she was going on break... who knows? I initially tried to apply my CVS Rewards to the small $3 purchase using my phone number. I was informed that there was zero balance on my account. Fair enough. Although I knew I had accumulated more than enough CVS Rewards cash, but I figured that there must still be some step I have to complete to apply it. I apologized for my error and then went to check my CVS account which did have $16 worth of rewards but indeed a zero balance as the app requires an extra step to make the funds available in store. Again fair enough--no harm no foul. I tapped the "apply rewards" button and then came back to the store to buy the soda and a few other food items (it's the only grocery store open in that part of Birmingham at 2:15AM). It was when I returned to the store that the situation became off-the-rails bizarre. "Help needed at the front!" This time with more urgency in her tone. And this time unmistakably prompted by my entrance, again the only customer at the still empty CVS. Okay, rude but still we aren't overtly crossing any lines of etiquette. Hey I get it, there's a good reason why their experiment in self checkout was so brief at the 24 hour Roebuck Parkway CVS. But I can do that dance with indignity if it means that I can buy groceries this late. I figure a little criminal profiling is a price to pay for ramen and marshmallows at 230 in the morning--within the standard passive aggressive, junior detective posture that in most cases is mostly harmless, if tactless. There, again swooping into the grocery section to heed the call for "help", comes tracksuit. And this time he's prepared to deliver a stern directive by way of a warning: "If you don't pay [meaning pay for the items I had chosen] this time I'm banning you from the this store." It took me a minute to realize what was (and was certainly NOT) going on there. And finding any benefit of the doubt I offered for this behavior rebuffed, with extreme prejudice ( whatever I was up to must have been REALLY bad) I left. I know that there is no company policy, that extends any such authority to store managers to demand immediate payment in full, at the threat of banishment. Countless viral videos that have gained infamy in present years which show CVS employees standing aside as gangs of organized retail thieves casually walk out the door, arms full of body wash, AA batteries, shaving cream, and dental dams in brazen daytime robberies. Clearly corporate policy (even for actual shoplifting) gives no legal wiggle room for managers to assert, "If you don't pay this time I'm banning you." I do pay **all the time** and no, sir, you are not. That's not what's happening on this crisp winter's night. Sorry. That's the line. The thing is, I don't take things that don't belong to me from stores. I should have made that clear from the start of this review if only as "spoiler alert"--as I should have to the store's employees themselves directly after the initial intercom warnings. I will from now on--in a clear and unbothered tone to match the volume of the store's PA system that chirpingly reassures CVS customers who wander into the "Health & Beauty" section that "staff have been altered to your presence!" (how sweet of them to notice) when even slightly prompted by store motion detectors tracking their every move around the $27 tweezers, as their own digital protocol for: "Help needed at the front!"

    Mac's One Stop is a full breakfast and lunch diner located inside of the Chevron gas station near…read moreUAB hospital. They serve breakfast like various breakfast biscuits, grab and go options and cook to order breakfast. For lunch, they offer grilled burgers, hot dogs and chicken tenders cooked to order. Sides include French fries and onion rings with deli food like chicken salad is available. On every Wednesday, the chef offers a Southern cuisine menu that changes week by week. They serve the special from 11-2 or until they sell out. They provide the option to call in, stop by to prepay, or walk-in based on what's available after pre-orders. Today's soul food menu consisted of baked chicken over rice, collard greens, macaroni and cheese and cornbread for $14.99. The portions size was huge, enough to eat twice from the plate. The food was served in Styrofoam plates with dividers with individual wrapped utensils and salt & pepper packets. Condiments were available as well. Drink was not included, but since the location is inside a gas station, there was many options to choose from. The baked chicken was a chicken breast that was bigger than the size of my hand. The chicken was so moist and tender, which made it easier to chew. Gravy was poured on top of the seasoned, fluffy yellow rice and went perfect for the entire dish. The greens are full of flavor and pair so well with the semi-sweet cornbread square. The macaroni and cheese was not as moist and cheesy as I would like but I eat it and enjoyed. Overall, the place receives a 5/5 for me. I'll be back to try a grilled lunch item next! -DASC
