Warrior's Quick Stop -- avoid if you have kids or basic hygiene standards…read more The men's restroom is genuinely one of the worst I've seen on the road. Out of two stalls, only one is functional. Both are filthy -- not "needs a quick wipe" dirty, but visibly neglected. One of two sinks works, and the urinal area is just disgusting. To top it off, the door swings inward -- so while you're washing your hands, it opens right into you. It nearly slammed into my 3-year-old son. That's not just poor maintenance, that's a safety hazard. This place needs a serious deep clean and a basic facilities audit before it deserves another customer.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

There were two gas stations located next to each other on W 1st St when I stopped for gas in Cle…read moreElum on the 18th of April 2020. One had the decor of a Chevron gas station but no Chevron sign and the other looked to be a Shell station converted to a Chevron station with a Chevron sign out front. I went to the one with a Chevron sign out front (this one). The cashier in the convenience store was friendly, the restrooms were clean, and the snacks were reasonably priced. Fueling was straightforward and the gas itself was a good deal. I paid a little under $12 for a little over 5.5 gallons of gas. It was easy to pull in to and out of the pumping stations and the parking along the convenience store was also easy to access. There was ample space for lines if fueling up at a busy time.

I'm just a regular, everyday, normal gas station...and the beat goes on!…read more This Chevron station is smack in the middle of Cle Elum on the corner where you turn back into the freeway. Easy in, easy out with smaller than most lanes for the cars at the pumps but enough room that it's not dangerous. As far as convenience stores goes, this one is pretty Janky. They've got all the cheese laden carbs and energy drinks that you're looking for, and the bathroom has a pretty constant leak from outside and it's rather cold. Not a place to linger! Not great, but not as either - kind of the gas station equivalent of the little bears porridge in little red riding hood. Good for what you need and not much else....like a gas station should be!

While trying to squeeze a quick hike in during a trip to Seattle (from Tri-Cities), I happened upon…read morethe Teanaway River Valley. I had never hiked up this way (did fly fish it last year though). While driving up the valley, I happened upon this little grocery. I didn't have a Wilderness Pass, so I figured I'd stop on in and grab one (as well as some beef jerky for me and my dogs). This place is fairly small. The person running the place was sitting in what looked like an attached living room to the store (her cute kid was playing around on the floor playing)--definitely a homey feel to the place. The woman was nice and answered my basic questions about getting to the trailhead. "yeah, the roads alright, but there are some potholes to look out for", she said. "Potholes" turned out to be the buzzword of the day for me. If you need to pick up any last minute provisions, Teanaway Mercantile is your only options in this beautiful peace of the world.

Formerly out of business for a few years, the Mercantile is now under new ownership and reopened…read moreits doors on Saturday 8/8/13. The new owners seem really great and are still doing renovations and cleaning up the place, with future hopes of running a little sandwich/snack counter once their permits get approved. I'm a big fan of the unmanaged Twentynine Pines campground just a few miles into the hills past the Mercantile and now that this place is open again, I don't have to drive the ~20 miles back into Cle Elum for any supplies I forget. The prices are higher than Safeway and etc, but they're not outrageous and the convenience is worth it. I'm helping host a 30+ person event out that way this weekend and found that the Mercantile wasn't missing anything I might need during the event; they've got beer, propane, food, drinks, supplies, tools, and more. Their plans are to stay open year-round and I hope these guys can make enough to keep their doors open for a while.

Not too thrilled about my experience here. Never got "bad…read moregas" before but had heard about it. I think this is what happened to me here - I filled up with the pure gas premium and my truck ran like absolute crap. It was idling very rough and the MPG was way down. When I got back to Seattle, I ran it down to a quarter tank, running like crap the entire time and even had some small backfires. I refilled with Costco gas and the truck is running like normal again. I don't know if it's because my truck likes 10% ethanol (seems very unlikley) or if the pure gas at Storey's was contaminated... hard to say. Couple that with the higher price for using a debit card (that you have no idea about until you start pumping) and this was just a lame experience all around. I'm going to try pure gas from a different location to see if it's the truck not liking pure gas and I'll update my review if that proves to be the case.

ATTN: Women! Avoid this gas station and encourage any men & family members who support you to do…read morethe same! The male (i'm won't call him a man cause he is not) - clearly HAS ZERO respect for women. We stopped with family to get gas and desperately use the restroom. The restrooms were locked (which is not foreign to us), but when we asked for the key, the person indignantly looked me up and down and informed me that I MUST make a purchase in order to use the restroom and then proceeded to deny my 11 year-old son a key to the men's restroom! It was only when I told the guy behind the counter my husband was purchasing gas, that he reluctantly gave me a key to the woman's restroom. When I opened the door to the restroom there were 4 stalls with a line of other woman with children waiting outside! However, all but one of the stalls were actually usable! The others were backed up or had TP stuck to seat which was DISGUSTING! The place smelled awful! It clearly had been AGES (looked like weeks!) since the place had been cleaned. There was zero toilet paper in the stalls, no running hot water, no hand soap and only a blow dryer (as they are too cheap to provide paper towels). I was completely grossed out! I wouldn't be surprised if the public health services haven't fined them! When I went to hand the key back to the guy I nicely attempted to inform him of the state of the woman's room was (which no doubt he HAD to know about) and he refused to look at me. Even though he wasn't assisting anyone at the counter, he directed me to put the key (which was attached to a stick) on the counter as he clearly didn't want to touch it. I felt like chucking it. Leavenworth has always had friendly businesses and this filling station used to be managed/owned by a really lovely family for years, but clearly they sold it and the new owners (who appear to be Persian) clearly have zero interest in providing any customer service or treat their woman customers with any respect. While waiting to purchase drinks for our kids we watched as a another woman who had an adorable toddler made a purchase and the man was so disrespectful and rude towards the woman who was trying to pay while trying to keep her little one from wondering off and touching other things. However when my husband went to pay, he was given the courtesy of eye contact. What a tool! I left the shop completely disgusted by the guy's arrogant behavior. My husband saw and completely agreed the guy's behavior very rude. We will not be returning!

Need to refuel or stock up during your vacation? Be sure to stop by Dan's Food Market! This…read morefantastic local grocery store has everything you need -- fresh fruits and vegetables, a full bakery, quality meats, and a wide variety of pantry staples. I especially loved their in-house "Dan's" label products. I brought several items home with me, including their BBQ rub, black peppercorns, and of course, coffee! Their hours are incredibly convenient (5:00 AM - 10:00 PM), which makes it easy to pop in anytime. We even visited during a snowstorm -- and yes, they were open! The staff was warm, welcoming, and genuinely happy to see us. It's like visiting your Granny's Home ;)

What a hidden gem!! Their $6.99 sandwich deal is an awesome value, and I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a hearty, affordable hike lunch. You can choose from one of their set sandwiches (like the Reuben, Silly Phillies, or Wild Turkey) or build your own from a generous selection of breads, cheeses, condiments, meats, and veggies. And it comes with a complimentary bag of chips! - Reuben - a warm, pressed classic. Generous corned beef, melted Swiss, tangy sauerkraut, and Thousand Island dressing on grilled bread. Super satisfying and perfect trail fuel - Turkey Cranberry - layers of turkey with cranberry spread, cheese slices, and fresh fixings. Sweet, savory, and delicious The deli counter is right inside on your left when you walk in. Everyone behind the counter was incredibly friendly, genuinely chatting with us about our hike plans and offering samples from the bakery. Our sandwiches were made fresh and hot in minutes! The overall vibe is that of a local neighborhood grocery with staff who truly care. We loved it so much, we came back for round two. Don't miss this spot if you're prepping for a hike -- Dan's does a trail lunch done right!

He then looked out at my truck, parked near the propane, and then said "no, it's been a busy day". So because your day used to be busy and now you're tired you don't wanna give me service.

Horrible service at first I thought he was joking, but his face was just dead serious. He didn't say another word. I turned around and walked out

Double the price vs going to Dan's or Safeway which are both a mile or so away on US-2…read more Both 76 stations in Leavenworth (same owner) exist as parasites on the town, making a healthy living feeding off of tourists that don't realize how much they are being gouged until they walk out of the store (you will notice that most of the tourist impulse items like sunscreen won't have prices listed as they are hoping you will just grab them and pay without realizing they charge over $20 for sunscreen that is $8.99 at Dan's or Safeway). If you can budget the extra 5 minutes of driving save your money and get gas at Safeway and any convenience items at Dan's or Safeway.
