Can you get the best ice cream you'll ever taste at a gas station?…read more Yes, you can! At Stewart's Shops. When I return home each year, my kids and I eat our weight in ice cream. None of us eats that much ice cream normally. Every single day we're there, we end our activities with a visit. Besides being the best-tasting ice cream, the flavors are endless and the service is great. Best of all, the price is ridiculously reasonable. I always forget how cheap it is when we're here. My go-to cone is Mint Chocolate Chip with Strawberry. I alternate which is on the bottom. My mom likes the Banana Split, and my children usually get some form of Cookie Dough that's on offer. So, when you're stopping by to fill up your vehicle, stop in to fill up your belly with ice cream so good, you don't complain about brain freeze.

Just like how City of Schenectady is getting a total makeover, so did this gas station. The gas station prior was I believe a gulf that looked old and no character. The renovated gas station is large, spacious and comes with a cafe/convenience store. I didn't get a chance to try the food here but I'll definitely be back to give it a shot as I see some positive reviews. The gas price is one of the least expensive in the area. If I'm around, I don't mind filling my gas here like I did today

When I called, the owner told me he would not help me, that the information I received was incorrect because one of his guys "doesn't know what he's doing." When I asked him to check for this package, he told me he wouldn't help me because he was busy and had a customer. This conversation occurred after he refused to help my fiancee who came in to pick up the package earlier, and after he hung up on me once before. Learn customer service, or don't run a business.

The staff were efficient, kind and knowledgeable about their offerings. My chai latte was delicious! The food was great! I enjoyed everything, except the strawberry macha cookie. The only strawberry part of the cookie was just a thin drizzle of strawberry icing, otherwise it was just macha. I wish it had some freeze dried strawberry chunks in the cookie for some discernible strawberry flavor snd more icing. Otherwise just rename it a Macha.............strawberry cookie. Lol

In the mood for a lunchtime Saturday sandwich, I decided the Co-Op would fit the bill. I had a hankering for an Italian mixed sub, gave some specific instructions, and they delivered. I can be a little picky when it comes to my sandwiches; I like my deli meat thinly sliced, sandwiches just taste better that way to these taste buds?! So this time, I wanted thinly sliced ham, pepperoni, and salami, with red onion, shredded lettuce, and that good good red wine viniagtette, on a sub roll. All the ratios addeded up in my book; the thinly sliced meat complimenting the healthy squeeze of the red wine vinaigrette dressing, all while not making the bread soggy -- that's key. Nothing worse than soggy bread, IMHO. So in closing, I will be back for this sandwich and I hope it's this perfect every time!!

We finally made it to this local grocery store and were pleasantly surprised. The emphasis is…read moredefinitely on 'local,' and we ended up with a surprise find, a candi onion which is apparently locally produced and neither of us had even heard of. There's plenty we found appealing about the experience, from the clean and spacious aisles and clear labels to the full range of goods we weren't sure we would find, including bakery, deli, produce, and pet foods. Staff at checkout was energetically friendly and I left thinking that I wouldn't mind going back at all. There's limited parking directly in front of the shop but more across the road. Apparently the co-op was established some 80 years ago and has gone through several transformations. I have a soft spot for local businesses and independent grocers, so here's hoping they stay open for many more years.

Let's start with all the positives!! 1. The crew at this location are really nice, friendly and…read moreconsiderate (too bad you can't say the same for all the clientele)! 2.

It's less than a minute drive so it's right on my way home! But, this was the first time we ordered food, we really used to love Fastrac breakfast pizza but the nearest Fastrac is in Amsterdam, NY (about 20 minutes away). We heard Stewart's Shops has breakfast pizza so we thought we'd give it a try. Strongly, not recommended. Unlike Fastrac, they are pre-made so you can't customize what toppings you want. The crust is similar to a generic frozen pizza, very dense texture and no flavor. The toppings (egg, sausage, bacon and cheese) were good. But the liquid layer on the crust (we couldn't agree what it was, but am inclined to believe it's an egg product) made it very runny. So we preheated our oven at 350 degrees and put it in for 5 minutes, still runny. Left it for another 5 minutes and although somewhat better, still "slippery". The statement, "When you're hungry, you'll eat almost anything" holds true. Use some hot sauce and it makes it palatable. So use Stewart's Shops for what they do best, milk, ice cream, bread, hotdog and hamburger rolls, pastries and donuts, quick bag of chips or a beverage and gas! Leave the breakfast pizza to someone else. Problem is, who's that because you can't find it anywhere since the pizza restaurants aren't open and there aren't any Fastrac or Nice 'n Easy stores in this area.
