I loved seeing, feeding, and petting the animals. I also loved seeing the knick knacks inside the store. It was a great stop on the way to my hometown, reminded me of home as someone who grew up around farms. There is also another gas station with a bathroom nearby. read more

Sublett Fuel Stop - I loved how you could buy animal food from a candy dispenser and feed the animals! - Convenience Stores Near Me - Malta, Idaho

Oh wow, where do I start! Back in December I was on my way home with a man whom (now my boyfriend wow) and we stopped at this gas station. I was astonished by the animals and the level of customer service. The entire herd was welcoming, eager and excited for pets. Fun fact: you can grab treats inside for the herd, 50 cents and a nice dropping of pellets will dispense. Months later, here I am in bed thinking about the Sublett Fuel Stop. Godspeed. read more

The cutest little stop :} the man at the counter was a sweetheart and all the animals were adorable. Picked up the derpiest little alpaca (clearly handmade, in a good way) for my baby brother! Regardless of bathrooms and trashes, this is a worthwhile stop. Brought a good bit of joy and whimsy into our drive. 100% recommend!! read more

Thankyou! read more

We love this place, it's an amazing break and love petting the animals and grabbing a treat. The owner has always been so nice every time we stop by!! The bathrooms is nothing to complain about, there is one not to much farther to use.. read more

Sublett Fuel Stop - Convenience Stores Near Me - Malta, Idaho

No garbages, no bathrooms. Gas pumps don't automatically stop (is that even legal?) so there was a nice puddle of wasted gasoline. A fence on the west side of the building says "high voltage fence." This fence is close to their petting zoo where people are encouraged to feed the animals pellets. Just doesn't seem like a safe proximity. For a gas station called the middle of nowhere, you would think they would have services that people in the middle of nowhere might need. read more

First it took multiple swipes to get the card to go through (there is a sign indicating sometimes communication doesn't work). Once it swiped and I pushed 87, gas started squirting everywhere - the handle was stuck on the push position and it wouldn't stop. I tried to get it into the fuelI hole on the car as quickly as possible. I was covered in gas and the car was covered. The door was locked with a sign "Stepped away for a minute." Plus, they have NO RESTROOMS. Had to strip down in the parking lot, use paper towels and bottled water to clean up and change into other clothes. There are also NO GARBAGE CANS so I placed the gas soaked paper towels on the ground next to the gas pump. As we started to roll away a man opened up my door and threw the gas soaked paper towels inside the car. He had one hand holding his phone filming me. I gave him the bird and rolled away. The next stop was a rest area about 16 miles down the road where we disposed of the towels and the clothes. We drove the 16 miles with the windows down as we had three little kids in the car. Next time we will bypass this place and go a little further to Flying J Where they have restrooms, garbage cans and employees that come to work. read more

donkeys outside were sweet the worker was also a jackass. Guy was being a total smartass, kept declining me at the pump saying we were leaving trash but guess what there wasn't any trash besides his customer service read more

Stopped for gas but the front door says (Be Back in a Bit) while the person who is working is inside the store then when you pay for gas he locks the doors as you go back outside to pump your gas pretty crappy services if you ask me. Plus the gas prices are outrageous! Would not recommend!! read more

My wife and I stopped on our road trip after seeing a billboard for the petting zoo. We figured we would fuel up, take a bathroom break and visit some alpacas. As we pulled up, the building and sign looked like something out of a horror movie. The gas station was closed (I guess they aren't open on Sundays) and there was a sign in the door saying that there are NO bathrooms available. There were a couple run down cars parked in front of the gas pumps. The only sign of life were some desperate looking animals. I would have loved to feed them, but the store where you buy their feed was closed. Bummer. Strange place. I'll probably pass this one next time I'm in the area. read more

i believe you could not answer my solid complains, so a goat is your id. all fuels at your shop is in california prices, hope anyone who sees the rest of the negative reviews , not to go there anymore! read more

Sublett Fuel Stop - The Sublett Fuel Stop for innonent drivers not to go there! - Convenience Stores Near Me - Malta, Idaho

Fun stop to stretch the legs after a long roadtrip and fill up on gas. No restroom, but they do offer a funky shop that will sure give you some laughs and memories. There is a small petting zoo with donkeys, llamas, and goats. Have a quarter on hand for the grass pellets and you'll have all the animals attention in seconds. read more

Well the owners once again prove they don't care about people running out of gas in the middle Of nowhere. Gas 24 hours means only one thing. Why would you put that on a billboard knowing YOU ARE THE ONLY GAS STATION FOR LIKE 80 miles? And you aren't open 24 hoirs' maybe 24 hours a week. You are not open 24 hours...would it be so hard to take your signs and billboards down and change them? Seems like a decent thing to do. You do not seem decent, so i expect those signs will remain. And then people as you so elegantly put it will have to "rode their bike home" dude we want to go home! You think we want to stay with you at your creepy little gas station in the middle Of nowhere that isn't even open...? I look forward to your response, perpetuating your already poor public persona. read more

Cute well fed animals and gentleman was very nice. Great place to get gas because there wasn't much else available.

If this site would register a negative review I would. Pumps don't accept payment, they have a sign so they just won't fix them, highway robbery on price, NO public restroom (at a gas station?) and a very condescending young man. Plan your trip so you don't get caught stopping there! read more

No bathrooms, downtown LA gas prices, no reason to stop. Zero- I cannot fathom no restrooms, where does he go??? The conspiracy is deep with this one ladies and gents. read more

Trashy, diesel pump for single rig, no trailer of any size would fit. Price posted an arm and a leg, haha but really how much is this going to cost? Garbage along side roadway... keep driving less your going to run out of fuel! One llama and one ole donkey... read more

awful! animals you have to pay to feed so the owner doesn't have to. NO BATHROOMS!!! rest area was closed before that. guy was so rude!!

Fuel is about all they have. There are no restrooms, trash cans or ice. If you have children with you while traveling, there is a area where you can feed donkeys and alpacas. read more

Nice place to rest from a long drive and grab a snack. We loved getting to stop and pet the animals. read more

There's no restroom in the middle of nowhere. Why buy gas here? don't buy gas here. Don't buy gas here.

The prices are more than a dollar over in town prices but... it's not in town haha this place is in the middle of nowhere (as the sign says on their window haha) so I'm sure they aren't getting bulk discounts from the fuel companies and they probably pay an arm and a leg for delivery. We were running very low on fuel and this is the only place around. So regardless of the price, I am happy that it is here and we didn't have to walk or call AAA haha the animals were a nice touch... super unique! read more

Sublett Fuel Stop - two donkeys in a fenced in area - Convenience Stores Near Me - Malta, Idaho

DON'T STOP here!!! NO restroom, no trash can, no windshield cleaner, & girl working at the counter wasn't nice. You can tell she hates her job. I don't blame her, crappy place to work. This convenience store is inconvenient. I should have looked up the reviews before I stopped here. 2 stars speaks for itself. Next stop is 15 mins away. Go there! Outside near the pumps, they have 2 donkeys, 2 goats & a llama who are kept in a small fence and look bored. They have pellets you can buy to feed them if you choose to stop there. Follow up response: You can tell by the way the company replies that they don't have integrity. Poor management. Such a shame. read more

The animals were so cute. The store was closed with a "be back in a bit" sign but I don't care, my friend had quarters so we could feed the alpacas and goats and donkeys. They were so sweet and let me pet them. Kinda want to drive the 10 hours here from oregon just to say hi again. read more

Sublett Fuel Stop - Convenience Stores Near Me - Malta, Idaho

diesel pump doesn't work. animals malnourished, not fed. prices are ridiculous. lobby does not have bathroom.

No restroom and convenient store doesn't open til 8am and appeared to close at 6pm. Gas was also expensive.

If you stop at a gas station in the middle of nowhere, then you expect a bathroom. You have time to read comments, post signs, but not the time to mention on your business that there isn't a bathroom?! It should be listed as a small petting place with gas available. Also, didn't feed animals because the feeders were just about empty. The signs were cute, but everything else, including other reviews have left a bad taste in mouth for Idaho. read more

Only stop here if you don't have enough gas to get anywhere else. Very expensive gas and if you do stop here you'll have to stop at the next place anyway because there are NO RESTROOMS. Didn't feel like giving them anymore money than necessary if I can't even come in and take a wiz. Just plan better than we did and stop 15 minutes sooner. Ok ok 2 stars because reading the owner's unhinged replies to poor reviews was a good way to spend some time on a long road trip. Buuuut then back to 1 star because I don't want to support animal abuse :( read more

This store don't deserve all the hate! So what if they are closed, pumps are on 24/7, and if your sad there are no restrooms, there is the ground, a new revolutionary spot! All the animals are so cute, and have a large pen, I fed Guzzles twice, and the gas price sign is funny as hell, one side diesel pump, and about 4 normal pumps, pump 87 Reg, if you have anything that is premie, you wouldn't be out here. Don't be picky about fuel, hell some cars can run off anything combustable if needed. Overall 10/10 would have loved to meet the owners, but they were closed temporarily (not an issue) read more

Didn't have time to pet the alpacas since I was in a hurry. Yes the gas is very expensive here. Maybe next time fill up in Utah or near a larger town. After seeing the sign I put a couple gallons in and filled up the rest at a cheaper station. I assumed that's what most people do at this station. If you're out of fuel and find yourself between the Utah border and I86, where else are you gonna get gas? read more

This place is worthless except for gas. No restrooms, no trash bins, what is the point? Look at the smelly Alpacas and goats? I can do that at the fair and at least appreciate their animals aren't rolling around in their own doo doo, while drinking a beer. You sell food? For what, gerbils? Some moldy old granola bars and tea? There's no reason to go here. Even if you need gas just keep going, there's a Flying J about 30 miles down the road on the right. They actual have bathrooms, trash and hot water like the rest of 21st century Idaho. read more

I have to let the people know, there is no restroom or trash cans. That's just the facts of this place, when you go to a gas station there are trash cans and restrooms there 99% of the time, maybe I shouldn't expect it but maybe the owners would notice an influx of good reviews if they had some installed or opened for the public! Just here to say prepare yourself for that and also that the gas is pricey! The animals are cute tho.... :D read more

Wow! Being treated as a child by the owner when posting my review just shows how strong his patriarchal self-importance runs. By the way, reviews are a great tool for assessing customer service. I've worked in the customer service industry wearing many different hats. I have even worked for a gas station and would have never dreamt of speaking to customers the way this man does. Oh, posting a review is not whining. It is letting you know you have displeased the customer. And to feel you must parent the adults who come into your establishment for behavior is absolutely ridiculous. I never knew asking if there was a public restrooms was considered a misbehavior. Honestly though, the animals was cute, but I can see alpacas somewhere else. Anything to not have to deal with this man's piss poor attitude. read more

Don't stop here. Gas was the most expensive I paid in a coast-to-coast trip. Also no restrooms. Seriously. And yeah out in the middle of nowhere with a very cranky dude who has walked off the entire store so I could only step inside in the pouring rain and get a bottle of overpriced soda or water. No. Not a good val read more

Sublett Fuel Stop - Middle of Nowhere - Convenience Stores Near Me - Malta, Idaho

We stopped at the station because it had diesel and booked itself as open 24 hours. When we arrived there was a sign on the door that said "Back in a bit." It was 10:00 am. We waited much more than "a bit," but eventually decided no one was coming. We felt we had no alternative but to move on down the road. We could not purchase diesel fuel with a credit card, and had to pay inside, and therefore no fuel wavailable. We were counting on the station being open because it was the last stop before we ran out of gas. Now we are stuck on the side of interstate 84. Thanks a lot for nothing. We passed by the same station nearly one month later and took pictures of the front of the station, the side wall showing 24 hour fuel and visible from the road, and the front door with the same "back in a bit" sign. There were others waiting to get fuel, who had been there apparently some time and drove off after we arrived. I offer this as an addendum to my original review and a rebuttal to the response from the owner/operator. This is an unreliable fuel source and the owner is a liar. read more

i thought the reviews were just being harsh so we stopped to look for souvenirs and go to the bathroom. To our surprise the Reviews are spot on. I wouldn't stop here again. Gas prices are over $1 more per gallon. NO BATHROOMS! no trash cans! The store inside is smaller than our truck And nothing worth buying. the animals are cute and that's it read more

FYI no restrooms, next services are 38 miles after. Like others, the state rest stop was closed and we expected this to be available based on signs. Alpacas and donkey are cute. read more

Omg! This was such a fun stop for gas!!! I am so happy we chose this exit! My daughter and I have been traveling for days and this was for sure a highlight! The alpacas, donkeys, and goats were super sweet and fun to feed. The owner was hilarious and I seriously wish I had his job! Gas was good! read more
