    Okay so I don't often update a review in the same calendar year, let alone just a month later, BUT…read morewe found ourselves once again in this area and given the opportunity to try it out one more time we decided it was worth it. First of all, I didn't use the family restroom and got to explore the regular women's room. Which much to my surprise was super clean and nice. Next time I'm here I'm taking my daughter into this restroom and avoiding the family restroom all together. This really set the tone for me and then we tried the fried pies! I looked them up on our way home (while I was enjoying my pie) and it turns out it's a family run business out of Oklahoma that has a few shops in independently run gas stations around the midwest and great plains. I loved their story, and the pies were so fun. Very tasty. I won't say it's the best pie I've ever had, but the novelty of it and the freshness of getting it right there made for a super fun roadside stop. Key takeaway: avoid the family restroom and take your child into the regular one - it's gonna be better.

    I ordered a simple coffee online at 1:43pm today. I didn't get my coffee until 3pm. The Manager,…read moreTyler, told me , a paying customer that it was my fault because he had assumed somebody else had given me a coffee. He continued to argue with me eventually blaming me for everything! HOW any employee can think this way and treat customers accordingly is disrespectful and disgraceful! Sadly, this is not the first time experiencing this and I'm pretty sure it won't be the last

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!

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.
