Very inexpensive. I felt as though we were in the middle of a meth trailer park. Our view was a mobile home with ripped curtains.

Out in the middle of nowhere, but the food was fantastic and the service was friendly! It hit the spot when we needed it.

The burger was amazing but we felt super unwelcome. Pretty sure the locals don't like people stopping by. The food was great but definitely recommend sitting outside if locals are there... read more

Nothing but love for this gas station that is literally in the middle of nowhere. It's an absolutely beautiful part of Oregon, through low hills and mountains on curvy roads. Not much population out here and as a "typical Easterner" I think that there's always a gas station on the next corner. Here's a clue: THERE ISN'T. The next fuel station in one way is 70 miles and 34 miles in the other. Yeah, that's a long way to go. Rome Station saved me an embarrassing situation and the fuel pump area is apparently open 24 hours. Hooray because when I rolled in at 8:15 pm, there was no one around and the restaurant was closed. My credit card was accepted and I put $50 in there. It's not the cheapest gas but it's sure cheaper than California and not as cheap as Idaho. So yeah, make sure you have enough gas when you pass through here because you're going to find no cellular signal in some places and that's not good.

Rome Station - Nice little place pretty much in the middle of nowhere. Good food, good atmosphere. Lots of parking. - Gas Stations Near Me - Jordan Valley, Oregon

Y'all... who is giving this place 4 or 5 stars?! The woman at the counter was very friendly. Star. The place seemed clean where we were eating... Star. But oh my God... so many people in and out of that kitchen that weren't cooking. The kitchen seemed a little dirty folks. The shelf above where he was cooking with the breads was GROSS with reside & he would grab it, then cook. No hand washing was visible, BY ANYONE. I took a few bites of my meal that was gross btw and we left. There's no way you can convince me this places is 4 or 5 star worthy. read more

Really good burgers and onion rings. Understand that their huckleberry shake is very good, though we had to pass on that

Visited here multiple times on the way to and from Boise, Idaho for some coffee on my work trips. The staff and guests are very rude to both my husband and I. Signs outside are very unwelcoming and the place it getting very run down for how many people stop along the route. A new coat of paint wouldn't hurt. The real shit hole is the bath rooms. I would never attempt to stay overnight here. We now refer to this cafe as "the racist cafe" when we pass by from the treatment received. read more

Filthiest place ever. stopped by a week ago.. barf... never in my life have i ever seen such a filthy, disgusting and nasty women's restroom in my life! i didn't use it! Cobwebs everywhere . Even on the vent by the filthy sink, mirror, walls and everything was so disgusting! i will never, ever stop here again let alone recommend such a filthy place! read more

This is a cute little spot when passing through. Great food and cute outside seating. Only a few miles away from the Pillars of Rome which is a great spot to stop and catch a view. We had a great home cooked breakfast here. read more

I know I'm not the first person to find themselves on a road trip out here not realizing there isn't a gas station for something like 60 miles between here and the Nevada stateline. This place saved me from running out of gas last night and many others, I'm sure. If you're on a long road trip, please be aware that this place is here on the 95! It's about 60 miles north of the stateline and 35 miles south of Jordan Valley. The large coffee was delicious and the bowl of baked potato soup was welcome comfort food on a cold evening after a long drive. I paid $7.50 for both which is an amazing price. The service was very kind. read more

Rome Station, Oregon,is a typical "Oregon roadhouse," offering gas, diesel, a restauant, RV park, a few cabins, and a small convienience store. The restaurant is located about 35 miles west of Jordan Valley, and is truly an oasis in Oregon's "outback" country. As you enter the restaurant, you'll notice the small counter with five stools. There are a few tables in the dining area, but the restaurant is compact, to say the least, but comfortable. The "store" is located to the right which offers basic supplies, along with ice, soft drinks, and most important in the high desert, a great selection of beer. If you plan to rent one their cabins or camp at the RV park, you make your arrangements at the restaurant. The small convenience store, in the works of one of the staff members, sells "a little bit of everything," and that includes snacks, basic camping supplies, some automotive items, a small selection of canned food, and much more. The cooler is stocked with soft drinks, milk, cheese, meat, and most importantly... beer. From the "Specials" listed on the whiteboard, as I entered the restaurant, I ordered the "Pepper Jack Cheese Burger with fries as my choice of side dish. At $8.00, this works really well, and in Oregon, you don't have sales tax, so you are actually charged a fair price for your meal. The cheeseburger comes with choice of sides as fries, macaroni salad or tots; I chose fries. The meat patty was good-sized, probably about a half pound or so. I didn't specify how my meat was to be cook, as most restaurants "default" to medium. I wasn't happy when my burger arrived with the meat cooked very well done, which is not the way I prefer my meat, as in my opinion, it removes much of the goodness from the taste. To each his/her own, and perhaps it was my fault for not requesting to the chef/order taker, as I placed my order, that I prefer my beef patty cooked to medium. If the meat was seasoned, I couldn't tell, as the too-much-time-cooking cancelled out any seasoning. But... I must say the pepper jack cheese was melted perfectly, and helped to make up for the dry beef patty. I wasn't really happy about the sesame seed bun either, as it seemed to be a day old, and was very much on the dry side. Rome Station is a long way from anywhere, so I assume they have "transport issues" and I suppose those sort of issue happen when it comes to hamburger buns and other perishable goods. The lettuce, tomato slices, onion slices and pickle were amazingly fresh, juicy, and added ZEST to an otherwise dry cheeseburger. A shot or two of mustard helped this burger "climb up the ladder" a notch or two. As the side of my choice I ordered fries, and my burger included a mountain of fries, deep fried to a golden brown on the outside, tender and chewy inside. However, the chef seemed to like salt, as these fries were SALTY... way to salty for my taste! Please! ... leave out the salt and let me "pour it on" as I please! The cheeseburger was "average" at best, the fries were way on the salty side, and the service was impersonal and not particularilly friendly. Since I was staying the night at the RV park, earlier in the day, I enjoyed breakfast. Here goes... From the "Breakfast" section of the menu, I ordered "Two eggs and... Everything but the meat." That made for two eggs, hash brown potatoes, along with an order of sourdough toast. Two slices of orange were used as garnish. I ordered my eggs fried over easy, and they arrived on my plate, pretty much as ordered, except one of them was a tad on the hard side. The hash brown potatoes were crispy golden on the outside, but a bit on the "soggy" side, but had a nice taste to them. Unlike the fries that came with my cheeseburger in my evening meal, the hash brown potatoes weren't excessively salty. The orange slices added a nice presentation, and a bit of "tang" to my breakfast. The sourdough toast was, well... toast, and it rounded out my breakfast. What has happened to Rome Station since my last visit, back in June, 2017? During my past visit, I enjoyed amazing food, along with friendly service, but I can't say the same about this visit. My breakfast was alright, the service was alright, especially considering the chef/server was running a "one woman" show. But the cheeseburger and salty fries I "enjoyed" tonight were "average," at best, and the service was slow and impersonal. "Hit or mess..." for certain, depending who's running the restaurant. I truly believe in my future travels to the "Oregon Outback," I'll simply drive past Rome Station and enjoy better food, and friendlier company... Three stars, for sure, but I have to give them credit, as they have a "monopoly" on dining, and they DO NOT overcharge, as their prices are fair and reasonable. But like I said, they're "hit or miss." I'll pass them by next time I'm in the area... read more

I would've never know Rome Station existed until I actually zoomed in on Google Maps! I was actually looking for places to eat along my route from Boise to Lovelock. But- from the Google Maps satellite view- the gas station isn't visible (even if you did a pin drop). BUT, the gas station is up & running! Didn't use it (think there are 4 pumps) & not sure if there are certain hours for the gas pumps- but, you can call to verify on that. The food AND service at the cafe are amazing! There is indoor and outdoor seating. Prior to our breakfast meal at Rome Station- we stayed at Springhill Suites. Mind you, because of COVID-19- the typical hot breakfast that would be served at Springhill Suites is now turned into a continental breakfast to go. So, when we arrived here- my belly wanted a REAL breakfast. I got the biscuits & gravy, eggs, toast, & bacon. Let me tell you! That gravy had to of been made with the bacon drippings! Legit! I used my toast to smudge my gravy on. My plate was clean! I swear- do not pass this place up! read more

The server never greeted us and not to mention told us, what are you guys doing eating? Buying? Have a seat so I can serve you. Burgers were the only good things. Simple fried chicken was over cooked and was lacking flavor. Grilled cheese was burnt. Chicken strips were nothing special and service was undesirable. I know now never to stop here. Did I mention we (party of 8) felt bad vibes and unwelcomed. read more

We stopped in after 9 hours on the road, traveling from South Lake Tahoe to Eagle, Idaho, in snowy road conditions. The store/restaurant/gas station is in the middle of nowhere. After we ordered, a family of four came in, and we found out that they lived 30 minutes from us in California. I ordered a mushroom hamburger, and my wife ordered a hamburger. Both burgers came with a huge, perfectly cooked beef patty loaded with pickles, onions, tomatoes, and lettuce. The employees were extremely friendly, conversation was nice, store/restaurant was cozy. We will definitely stop back on our way home. read more

Small place in the middle of nowhere but great food and service. I had a very good bacon cheeseburger. Nicely prepared!

The sheriffs presence in the next door cabins was the only reason I stayed here after seeing how the place was ran. I saw all the great reviews and was surprised by the reality of the place upon arrival. Has there been a change in ownership? The cabins were dirty, blankets dirty, under the bed was disgusting (seen when looking for the dropped cap to my makeup remover), the AC barely worked. 3 of the 4 people who ran the business has severe meth mouth. And once the sheriff's departed after 2 days the smell of cooking meth permeated from each of the stationary and rundown trailers that seemed to be permanent fixtures on the grounds. This is not a safe environment and should be both avoided and shut down read more

Happy we stopped here! A sweet little spot to grab a bite to eat while on the road. The food was comforting and hit the spot, and was also made quickly. Side note: They have HUGE chocolate chip cookies and pie by the slice! For those who have an insatiable sweet tooth like myself. Extra Bonus: there's a cute shaded patio with some outdoor seating, hosted by our kitty friend, Frederick read more

Rome Station is the little jewel in the middle of nowhere! We reserved an RV site for two nights so we could explore the Pillars and the Qwyhee canyon area. We had Site #1 right next to the café. It comes with water and power and good WiFi service for $15 per night. They do not have a sewer dump. Also, there is NO cell service at all. We pull a car trailer behind out cabover camper and there was plenty of room to back the entire rig into the site. We have two dogs and were happy to see the nice grassy doggy area but beware its right along the highway and not fenced. Gas & diesel are available 24 hours a day, you pump, with a credit card. We discovered that counties with less than 40,000 residents have no attendants to pump fuel, so it is self-serve. We had burgers the first night and they were amazing! Nicely cooked, very flavorful and big! Also came with a choice of sides and we chose tater tots. The following morning we had breakfast, French toast, chicken fried steak and gravy. Sooo good!!! Then we opted for the burgers again the second night (and I got out of cooking!). Also opted for the black cherry milkshake. Oh wow! It was delicious!! (Even got two to-go for the freezer before we left!) The caretaker, cooks and waitress were all so friendly and helpful, but not overbearing. We really enjoyed our stay!! If there is any downside of this place, I would say that Hwy 95 is very busy, and the traffic is around the clock. But it didn't bother our sleeping, as you get used to it. Don't miss this stop on your trip along Hwy 95!! Even if its to stop, sit on the beautiful deck and have a milkshake! read more

Stopped here for breakfast on our way to Reno. Was very satisfied with the food here, since there's literally nothing else remotely close, and eating gas stations snacks WAS NOT an option (I wanted REAL food). The dining area was small but cozy and nicely lit. There are a few tables as well as a couple bar type chairs up front (but are not high like regular bar chairs). I think this place would be very cozy and amazing in the winter time when there's snow on the ground and very cold out. Just has a very warm and cozy vibe to it. There are snacks inside (chips, cookies, beef jerky, etc) as well as some ice cream in a freezer all the way in the back. The bathrooms are not inside, but outside (on the side of the building, next to the outdoor eating area), and are very small and tight. They weren't too bad but could be a little cleaner. We ordered a traditional breakfast, which came with shredded hash browns, 2 eggs, toast, and chorizo sausage as meat. The other thing we ordered was the chorizo skillet, which was the same as traditional except with the addition of shredded cheddar cheese and the chorizo sausage was cut up. Both were very tasty, and we happily ate this food over some gas station snacks. The food did take a while to come out, but there was only 1 guy working there doing everything. This would be a bigger deal if this was in a populated area, but this is in the middle of nowhere (with no cell phone service), so I'm just happy there's something hot and fresh out here. There are other amenities here (YES THERE IS GAS HERE), as well as an RV park and what looked like a couple cabin rooms to stay at. The 2 negatives for me are there were a TON of flies inside the dining area as well as the bathrooms. Perhaps one of those sticky tape fly catchers in a couple of corners would fix that. And the second would be the longer than usual wait for the food. Overall, this place is a STRONG 4, and I do recommend this for anyone traveling on 95. Safe travels everyone! P.S. there wasn't any cell phone service in the dining area OR in the parking lot, but I heard someone mention they got 1-2 bars out back, behind the building. Give it a try. read more

There are long stretches of highway along 95 with little or no amenities especially during COVID-19 closures you just never know where your next stop is going to be open. Then there's Rome Station with smiling faces, food, drinks, gasoline and a bathroom that's no luxury but sure beats the side of the road. A great stop! read more

Rome Station is a must see if you're passing through the most southern tip of the lush green Oregon countryside. Rome takes you back to a simpler time in which the rolling green farms open up to a friendly story of small town and hospitality. Rome offers gigantic pillars and fine dining for the whole family. Rome was not built in a day and it shows. I had the elk burger on a fine brioche bun perfectly toasted, matched with pomme frites. *kiss noise* magnificent. If I were so bold to say, the customer service in Rome is absolutely astounding. They shared with me their local customs and culture and by the time I left I truly was doing as the Romans do. Do stop by for this MUST SEE STOP. I myself would gladly drive 9 hours or more for the view. read more

Welcome stop while on my solo adventure road trip May 2018. Ordered BLT with specific request, bread toasted, Xtra bacon well done- not burnt, generous mayo both sides. Lovely friendly lady didn't bat an eye. BLT was perfect,one of the BEST I've ever had I didn't make myself. Place is neat & clean and no odors. Bought a Rome Station magnet and smile with warm feelings every time I see it. Thanks for such a good memory. read more

This is in Rome, OR, not Jordan Valley. Map is also wrong, it's on hwy 95 between Jordan Valley and the junction with OR 78, it's 32.6 miles west of Jordan Valley! It's also known as Rome's Station. Pricy gas (from "classic" pumps), diner food, Fox News, little motel. Close to put-in/take-out for Owyhee river, Pillars of Rome rock formations. We just got enough gas to get to Jordan Valley, the exterior of the motel buildings look a bit beat up, but can't speak to the interior. read more

These guys sound great. Can't visit because my EV won't make it there. Contacted them to ask if they could install a charger. They got back to me right away but seems like Tesla won't help right now which is a shame. Would be an ideal pit stop and save me two hours of driving the long way. I'm jealous of anyone who gets to visit! read more

Stopped for breakfast on way north, as this seemed only place to get coffee. Friendly, and a nice wooden patio outside with tables under trees. Immediate surroundings were trailers and roaming cats, but the further scenery was great. Downside was the women's bathroom had wet floor - hopefully a leaky toilet. As noted, any retail/roadside service is scarce out here, but we loved the drive. read more

Secret little gem on Hwy 95 in OR. Don't let this little place fool you. The food is awesome. We make it a must stop (each way) every time we drive to Idaho. I love their French toast and bacon. Burgers and fries are amazing. Haven't had a bad meal yet. I always forget to bring in my phone to take photos of the food since there is no cell service. Maybe next time. Dallas is always a pleasure to visit with. Definitely recommend a stop here. read more

My husband and I were driving from Dayton, NV to Payette, ID in our Tesla and didn't know it would be so cold. I saw that they had RV hook ups and called them to ask if we could plug in. They said we could and when we arrived, they got us a place to plug into and we had great conversation with them! Great owners and staff and the milkshake was also delicious. If you are looking for a gem to get gas/food/charge at and some great conversation, don't pass this place up! Besides, your next gas station is 32 miles one way and 70+ miles the next. read more

This is the cutest little roadside diner. We weren't actually planning to eat, just to get a cold drink, but it was so sweet we decided to have an early dinner. We split a turkey Swiss melt with fries with a vanilla milkshake and a coke. The sandwich was left girly chargrilled and the cheese was meaty goodness. It was really fresh and hot and good. The milkshake was made with real ice cream and was also really good. Only downside was the bathroom-tiny. Sweet spot! read more

I would give it 5 stars -- it's quaint, cute, and homey. But their signage criticizing vegetarians made us feel unwelcome. It's still a cute, smoke-filled, family spot.
