I love this store! Not only do they have a great selection of shelf items, they have a full lunch hot bar, complete with entrees, sandwiches, tamales, sides and desserts, they have a grill for cook to order items, AND they have the absolute BEST steak cuts anywhere around. We exclusively buy our steaks here and they are always fresh, excellent quality and grill up so nicely. They have the good cuts too - ribeyes, filets...always perfect! Don't pass up the cobbler if they have it. So yummy!! Great place to get steaks or a quick lunch! read more

The Blue Store - Don't judge the paper plate! The ribeye we grilled was a beautiful, juicy medium rare slab of goodness. Best steaks anywhere! - Convenience Stores Near Me - Tyler, Texas

Only the best place around to order hand cut filets. Need three six ounce two eights and two fours? No problem! Very fair price for the quality. Bacon wrapped or not.. never disappoints. read more

Been going to the blue store for years. Best burgers in East Texas! I always stop in when passing by. The food is always delicious

I got called by my very pregnant wife saying she was out of gas and the car died. She coasted up to the pumps at the Blue store on HWY 155 at 6:53pm. When she tried to put her card in the pump it said it was off. She asked a hispnic lady who worked there what time they turn the pumps off and the lady told her 7pm. She told the woman that she had our two year old in the car (while it was hot as balls outside) and asked her if they could turn them back on. The lady went and asked the man who closed and locked the doors if he would turn them on and he said No and drove off! Leaving a pregnant woman and her toddler roasting in the car. Luckily we live not far and I have full gas cans. Let's show this guy that this is not how we treat people in Texas! And it's for sure not how you treat a vulnerable local customer! This community is the only reason this place is even in business. When you think about what I wrote ask yourself what you would do if your wife and kid were treated like this or as a mother how you would feel if it was your baby he did this to!!! read more

I've eaten at The Blue Store many times, mainly for breakfast (burrito), and it's always good. Today , I stopped in for lunch. They had a great looking plate lunch buffet that smelled wonderful. I opted out for the cheeseburger with French fries and a small blackberry cobbler. It was all very good. I like the fact that you can sit in several different areas in the store . There are tables (large & small) , or you can eat alone at a bar behind the candy racks ! Folks have always been very friendly whenever I've gone in . Don't forget about their fresh cut meat . Take a steak or two home for supper When in Noonday, give them a try. Go get Full read more

See all

I can't even give this place ONE star! But I had to to post this. We were VERY disappointed and sad!! The quote "if you can be anything, be kind."means absolutely nothing to them. We went in to get two cups of ice water in styrofoam cups. The charge was $2.00. We didn't mind paying but the min. to use a credit card was $4 and we didn't want anything else and had no cash on us. . We tried to then get cash from their machine to pay $4.00 for our two cups of ice water, but the machine was broken. We kindly asked if she could just let us have the two cups since we'd already drank from them and she was just going to throw them away and she said.."It's $2.00" We kindly said okay, still a little stunned thinking, maybe they should have gone to Camp Pine Cove to learn about kindness.‍ I'm so disappointed in people and human kindness sometimes. We'll be praying for you. Signed- Thirsty in Flint, Tx read more

I love this place! The staff is so friendly that it feels like you've stepped back in time, they have very good breakfast food, great burgers/fries, patty melts and an awesome BLT sandwich. They also have a home style buffet that changes daily with all sorts of good comfort foods and deserts like peach cobbler. Also, they're an excellent Butcher Shop! All their beef is raised locally (in East Texas), open pasture, grain/grass fed and just a day or two old (excluding any aged beef). Great place to pick up a few high-quality steaks for the grill...plus you can buy all your sides to-go if you don't feel like making anything else. Don't let the gas station thing fool you. It's absolutely worth the trip!!! read more

The Blue Store - The (Noonday) Blue Store - Convenience Stores Near Me - Tyler, Texas

I used to love this place. My family goes there several times a week for their burgers, gas, snacks, etc. The ladies working the cash registers at the front have always been very kind and friendly. No complaints at all about them. Typically, when we get their food, we call in ahead of time for our order and just pick it up at the register. There has never once been an issue. Food was wonderful and always the correct order. However, today, I made the mistake of taking my elderly, invalid mother to their store to look over their buffet and order some food. We lost my grandpa today and were looking for some comfort food. While perusing the buffet for a whole 10 seconds, the young dark haired young lady rudely inquired what we wanted. My elderly mother (who just lost her father) very nicely replied that we were still looking and would let her know when we were ready to order. The young lady did not bother to hide her irritation at my poor mother and proceeded to roll her eyes and stated to let us know when we were ready. After maybe a minute more, we decided on our order and I myself politely asked the young lady if we could place a to-go order. She was on the phone and rudely told me to wait, then promptly slammed the phone down and asked what we wanted. Despite her rudeness, I continued to be nice. I asked her for a chef salad for my mother, who requested extra dressing, and the young woman acted like we had asked for the moon. She slammed her pen down and asked what else we wanted. I (again, very politely) asked her for 2 cheeseburgers all the way with mustard and 1 cheeseburger all the way with mayo. She rolled her eyes and wrote the order down. I then nicely asked for 2 to-go sodas and she literally snapped at me that it was help yourself and for us to get it ourselves, which was fine, but we didn't know that and there was no reason for her to be so incredibly rude about it. While getting our sodas, a few young men approached her to put in an order. She couldn't have been nicer to them and told them she was having a bad day but they were making it better. At this point, my elderly mother and I were pretty upset but just got our drinks and and went and sat until our order was ready. When the very sweet cashier told us our food was ready, we went to the counter and discovered the young lady had only given us 2 burgers. Not a big deal. But when my poor, sweet mom informed her that we actually had ordered 3 burgers, the very rude young lady rolled her eyes again and stated that no, I had told her 2 burgers. My mother politely informed her that I had actually really ordered 3 burgers. The young woman said fine and stomped off to get our last burger. I have NEVER in my life been treated so incredibly poorly by anyone for no reason at all. We all have bad days, and if she was having one then I am sorry for her. However, my mother had lost her father, I had lost my grandpa, and we absolutely did not deserve her rudeness and her overall disgusting attitude. My mother and I were both in tears when we finally left, and we were both so upset that we were unable to eat our food. My family will NEVER visit this establishment again, for any reason at all. She may have been having a rough day, but we lost a loved one and were treated horribly by this young woman. If you are a young male and would like to order food from here in person then you will probably be treated lovely by this young woman. But my family will never spend money there again and I would like to thank her for making a horrible, painful day that much more horrific. read more

Great place to have ol fashion burger. I eat there every time I'm in the area. Favorite burgers

Best food and better burgers than its neighbor Dairy Queen. Maybe that's unfair competition... Dairy Queen is no competition. Blue Store has been a mainstay for the 18 years I've lived in Flint and I will frauent them long after I move away. The food is that iOS. The meat counter offers the thickest, juiciest steaks that are better than any grocery store could compare. Again, any grocery store is no comparison. It's Blue Store They offer gas and groceries, snacks, drinks and beer and wine but don't leave without sampling foodstuffs from this place.You won't be disappointed.. read more

Located inside the local station this hole in the wall is a pleasure to eat lunch. Order your food walk up and pay and sit outside. Great variety with some unique flare. Well worth the trip! read more

The Blue Store - a plate of food with mashed potatoes, corn, and gravy - Convenience Stores Near Me - Tyler, Texas

I made a special detour on my way back from College Station so I could try the burger at this place. The verdict - I would go farther out of my way next time. It's that good! If I'm in Tyler and I'm hungry, I'm not sure I wouldn't drive the extra 45 minutes round trip. The flavor is excellent. Don't be afraid to try a double if you're hungry because the patties are kind of thin. The french fries are very good. I saw folks eating the buffet and I wanted to try it but I came for a burger and, by God, I was gonna have a burger. The atmosphere is one of a kind. The people are so friendly you think you've stepped back in time. I've been here twice (once for breakfast fare) and have to say this is one of my favorite places in the Tyler area. Smiley face and a star read more

I was very disappointed on Saturday evening, Aug 3, when I went in at 8:55 to make a purchase. As soon as I walked in, they said everything had been shut down. I said, "but you don't close until 9pm". All they could say is that all was shut down for the night. 5 minutes early!!!! Not suppose to shut her down till 9pm. Walked out with a noticeable 'hmmmmmmm, not good.' read more

Yes. This will seem a mixed review. The food here always seems to taste good. The burgers are so jucy and delicious and theyre other handmade items are also tasty However... the atmosphere is hostile. Not to the fault of the cashiers and workers but to the fault of the ownership. Never have I ever stopped going to a business due to the attitude of the owner/proprietor but this is the first. Knowing the ownership on a somewhat "personal level"(using said term very loosely) has lead me to fully understand that they are a terrible person. Not only do they seem to hold a grudge towards someone even if the reason is not of their own fault, they also seem to become very irate very quickly. They seem to treat some workers with more favor than others leading me to question their business practices. All in all would not recommend being a patron here for the sheer fact of the ownership. read more

Paper thin hamburger meat dry and hugely over cooked. Asked if the onion rings were fresh made, no frozen, French fries frozen, tater tots frozen. This place is so overrated. Will not be back. read more

The Blue Store - a car parked in front of the store - Convenience Stores Near Me - Tyler, Texas

Great burgers with decent quality meat. Not overly greasy, fatty, or grizzly. Friendly staff. Charming in the way tables are arranged all thru the aisles of convenience goods. Will return for some more cheap good eats. read more

It REALLY pains me to give this place 3 stars. We were here a few years ago and couldn't get enough of it while staying in Flint. The owner is a dynamic sweetheart. This weekend we ate breakfast here 2 days in a row. Both days the temperature of the food ranged from piping hot to stone cold. The taste was excellent but I want butter to melt on my pancakes and while everything else on my plate was piping hot my hash brown were were stone cold. They forgot the order of bacon and I had asked for jalapeños in my omlet and they were left out. In order to have 5 stars I think a place needs to "consistently" deliver. I recommend it, with the caveat that your service may range from 3-5 stars. The food is so good... read more

Awesome grub for the money the lunch plates are huge and a must try.

Awesome burgers, great fries, friendly folks, their chorizo breakfast tacos are soooo good.

My husband and I visited here after many recommendations on the burgers so guess what we ordered? You're right... A burger! They were delicious and so were the fries. It would be 5 stars if the place wasn't so dingy. read more

I passed by this place numerous times simply because of how it looked. Thought maybe since it was a gas station that the food wouldnt be anything special. WRONG. The food is great. I wasnt too impressed with their breakfast (pancakes, bacon, and eggs) but their burgers are great. Nice size and worth the money you pay for it. read more

I love stopping by the Blue store for a breakfast and filling my truck up of gas. I also if I am in the area get lunch. The people are so nice and the food is very good. read more

The worst. It's dirty. The rudest staff in East Texas!!!! I love small local restaurants this one is not the best anything. They do not get in a hurry nor do they greet you. read more

The blue store has been featured in texas monthly and many newspapers and for good reason. They make some serious burgers and have a really good peach cobbler. read more

I get lunch from the Blue Store at least a couple of times a week. And don't forget that they do a tremendous breakfast. Just completely outstanding in every way. read more

Don't let the fact that it's a gas station throw you off. The Blue Store serves up some good food. In the morning, you can grab a breakfast burrito on the go. Lunches offer a daily special. The burgers are not too shabby. The lunch crowd can get pretty large. Lots of picnic tables outside under their porch. The staff has always been friendly. read more

We ordered the "Best Burgers". It seems that the cook was serving the buffet and the burgers took a while. When we got them, the meat was barely warm. In fact, the cheese was still cold and had not even begun to melt. If one is going to spend money on a roadway sign promoting Best Burgers, it would seem sensible to make sure they are just that. We have been there for breakfast many times, always excellent. The burgers were a disappointment. read more

Burger tasted fresh, filling. Top 5 list for me. But my absolute favorite was the chocolate chip cookies!! so many chips! it was so good. Got the bacon cheese burger with mustard. Delicious. read more

Only been here one time. Awesome burger and fries. One of the better burgers I have had. Great service. Very home spun and local. I will be back again soon! read more

We live close so we frequent The Blue Store. I don't think I've ever gotten something that wasn't good. My least favorite is the brisket- it seems a little dry. I love the buffets but the burgers are fantastic, too. The peach cobbler is a must! read more

One of the best damn cheeseburgers in the world! When you get the Bacon Cheeseburger you get about 6 slices of perfectly cooked bacon and it's just as greasy as it gets. I've been eating them for over 15 years and never had a bad one. Onion rings are good too. Fries? Average but Heinz ketchup makes them all better. read more

I drove by The Blue Store for years before eating there. One of the best burgers I've ever had. Great fries and the atmosphere is priceless. Good service but very crowded around lunchtime. I'll take SH155 just to go to "The Blue Store." read more

Great food and family owned. I gave them only 2 stars as the last couple times I ordered food it has been incorrect. I ask for tator tots and I get French fries. I ask for a burger without cheese and it comes with cheese. From what I can see the kitchen is Latino heavy and I don't think they fully understand English language which is why my orders have been incorrect. The food is good if you get what you order. read more
