    Once upon a time, this was a tiny, insignificant convenience store across the street from the movie…read moretheatre. One day, I noticed the pumps had been torn out and lots of construction was going on. People paid attention. After all, it's the last place to get gas, food and snacks on your journey to elsewhere...or El Dorado Lake. I took plenty of pics, as I am impressed with the Phoenix rising from the ashes. There is even a liquor store built right into it, next door. Now, lots of people are coming in. I like this little store already, but now it stands proud on the East side of El Dorado!

    Shopped at Sunny's east location since they've been open, then one day I saw a large sign in the…read morecooler advertising beer at a good price. When the transaction was in process, the clerk rang the beer up at a higher price! Upon questioning, the clerk informed me the it was an old price and pointed out a higher price on a display case. I felt that a retailer should honor a marked price in their store so I boycotted Sunny's for eight months! Last week I stopped by the store in hopes of speaking to the manager but instead encountered the same salesman as mentioned in the before indecent. I very calmly tried to communicate with him only to be met with a very agitated and aggressive response. He accused me spending 45 minutes in the cooler and posting an old sign which I had found in the cooler. Both are false accusations!

Your best bet will be a place like this one where you're going to pay 2-3X more for an item than you might at the supermarket. Chalk it up as "convenience." :-)

I was surprised by the amount of items in this seemingly small store. The aisles were packed with stuff. This is not a very large store but there is a terrific selection. I was able to get my drink and was happy they used Styrofoam which I LOVE. I know it's bad for the environment but it keeps the drinks cooler so much longer. Bad on me. Yes, this is a convenience store but it's not your typical convenience store. They had the regular fare of chips and candies. There was just more to this quaint little store. It has a different energy. You got the feeling they weren't rushing you out of the store like so many other places. They had all sorts of tobacco choices, as well. A clerk even offered to help me which never happens in other stores. The staff was friendly and attentive. They were helpful and nice. A smile goes a long way in customer service. This store is easily accessible and it was easy-in, easy-out. Prices seemed reasonable, as well. Downtown Lawrence is a few blocks away so this is a great location. Highly impressed and pleased. Will go back again.

Gas sucks, I filled up at Philip 66 and with a full tank got 400 miles, when I filled up here full tank I got 250 miles. Don't go here. Spend your money somewhere better.

Let that sink in for a moment before I begin this review. Some background: I've been frequenting this rest stop ever since I met my husband (then boyfriend) back in 2012. His family lives in central Kansas and this stop is **roughly** halfway between KC and where most of them live. We both have always agreed that it's a solid store and likely the best one in eastern Kansas, before you hit bigger cities that have QTs available. It was a record breaking cold day the last time I was here with my family and we stopped as per usual for a quick restroom break and to pick up a bottle of water or two before continuing on our journey west. As is has been every other time I've been here over the past decade, it was clean, the folks working courteous, the bathrooms well stocked, and plenty of snacks and beverages to choose from. So, what makes this place 4 instead of 5 stars you might ask? Just a few small things: 1. they only carry one brand of sparkling water and are often out of it. That's my number one request at any rest stop these days and on my last visit here I snagged the very last bottle, I'm sure to someone else's dismay. 2. It's a great convenience store/ gas station but it just can't compare to the kings in this category like WaWa and QuikTrip. I will say though, what sets this spot from the others is consistency. This stop has come through for me on many occasions and I'm sure will continue to do so for years to come.
