My favorite snack without a doubt is their own chocolate, specifically the dark chocolate.

If you've never been to the Buc-ee's in Temple, it's hard to describe just how massive and…read moreimpressive this place is. It's not a gas station; it's a full-blown destination. First off, the bathrooms are legendary for a reason--hands down the cleanest, most private, and most abundant stalls and urinals you will ever find on the highway. Outside, the sheer number of gas pumps means you never have to wait, and they even have a great car wash on-site. Inside, it feels like walking into a massive, one-stop-shop mall. If you need it--or if you forgot to pack it--they have it. They're selling everything from outdoor gear, deer stands, and lawn chairs to high-end Ray-Ban sunglasses and beautiful home decor. Then there's the food. You can smell the roasted pecans and smoked meats the second you walk in. The chopped brisket sandwiches are amazing, and the snack selection is endless--wall-to-wall jerky, fudge, and every road trip snack you could ever long for. Despite how busy it gets, the staff is always incredibly friendly, helpful, and fast. Everything is a fantastic value for the quality you get. Walking around this store just to see what they have is half the fun. Buc-ee's is hands down the best!

No line to take a photo, so we snapped a quick photo before getting back on the road to Houston. Gotta love Buc-ee's. High Five to the beaver!!

Always the place to stop to rest, eat, shop and use the restroom…read more They are the cleanest restrooms and worth the stop. They smell clean and so easy to find an open stall. They have a great selection of merchandise if you are into all the branded Buc-ee's cloths, collectibles and anything you can thinks of they have it. For gasing up, there are a lot of pumps available. This location is very easy to exit and get back on the interstate.

An absolute MUST STOP along I-35 and now my second visit to West, Texas (not West Texas, which is…read morecompletely different). I've been to the other one and now I am here. And while the other one is great and fabulous, this one is one star better. A huge selection of baked goods, coffee, decor, clothing, drinks and more. The Kissing Pig Cafe has so many food options, too! Mrs. K. has not had a kolache in years and she's now pescatarian which presents certain challenges. It would be awesome if they had some kolaches with just cheese or were sweet, so while I had one with ham and cheese and one with sausage in cheese, she was at least able to enjoy a strawberry and cream danish as well as the always awesome poppyseed kolache. It's possible that a pecan square was purchased for later consumption, too. The self-serve coffee was great and we enjoyed all of this inside at a comfortable table. And after that, more shopping. So much great stuff to choose from here and very, very clean restrooms. If you're overwhelmed by that massive baked goods counter, just ask for recommendations. They'll get you sorted for sure!

Excellent selection of kolaches and klobasneky. You can also buy sandwiches. Minus: as on previous visits, I have found that they are often out of poppyseed and prune kolaches. Not the servers' fault but you would think management would be keen to bake more of what sells most. Then there are the sandwiches. If you want pork, you'll get value. But if you want brisket, look out! I've never seen a more miserly portion offered for 13 dollars. I understand that brisket is expensive now. But I still get it at various restaurants and have to say that it was a five dollar sandwich for thirteen bucks. Additionally, the sandwich maker apparently does not know what and order for "moist" brisket means. Mine proved rather dry.

One might ask: what's there in Temple?!?…read more Buc*ees, of course! Seriously, though, that's pretty much the only reason I come to this city. But there were some recent discoveries that I am now interested in partaking the next time I come through. First on the list would be Temple Railroad and Heritage museum, check out wineries and breweries... there's even a water park for kids! FUN FACT: Temple was a major settlement for Czech immigrants. It's be interesting to learn more about that! Will most likely spend a day exploring the city next time I come through.

All of them have wonderful and friendly employees for starters! They have great food and awesome treats I can't live without. I always find either clothes or gifts there for me and my friends!! Every experience I've ever had there has been very positive.!! If you're in Texas within an hour or so of a Buc-ee's, "GO" experience it you won't regret it! I gave this review five stars but for some reason it's only showing one. I can't seem to change it. I apologize.!

I felt like I was walking into a home goods or a hobby lobby when I walked in here. From the scent…read moreindoors, to the clothes- the baby section and tumblr section, everything looked beautiful. Then, you get to the gas station part of it, which was also elite. The coffee station was my favorite. They have a wonderful array of creamers, and different type of sweeteners. We got lattes, thankfully, I was able to add some white chocolate sauce to it, which was really good. I also got breakfast burritos, but wish they had only egg and cheese instead of egg bead and cheese. I did like the green and red salsas that I had with it. I asked for a bag from the person at the counter, and they went to get me a basket-- that's amazing customer service in my book. We did the essentials-- use the bathroom grab ice and fill the tank. Great location and great service.

That would be an Allsup's burrito. Yes, deep fried goodness. On a recent trip up and down the 281 corridor I stopped at the closest burrito outlet for a quick bite. Having a large breakfast, this was more of a snack stop. I prolly could have handled a few bites of each but settled on a cheese and green chili instead of the more famous beef and bean. Grabbed a Dr. Pepper just in case of heartburn. Crispy fried tortilla exterior; inside a molten concoction of green chili and government cheese. Good bites! Friendly counter staff too. Didn't try the packet of taco sauce so I have some additional research on the next trip.

The only commonality with the restrooms here are that there actually are toilets and a sink. They're filthy, as is the rest of the store. Even the front glass is incredibly dirty, as is the parking lot. It's one of the worst convenience store experiences I've had. The only slight saving grace is that there's a passably decent snack selection, and the inside is well lit. My wife had to wait to use the bathroom because they were cleaning it, and she wasn't sure if they actually did anything. It still needed to be cleaned. Stay away. Buc-ees is worth the wait, trust me.
