All road trips include a gas station stop, and for us, this was it. Big Apple is a typical convenience store and gas station. The store has sales and specials, mostly "2 for" a certain price. I bought two Vitamin Waters for $3 when one Vitamin Water alone was $3.09. I'm glad the clerk let me grab another one without having to wait in line again. I was disappointed that the store doesn't have a soft drink/soda fountain. They do have plenty of bottled drinks, including beer, wine, and even liquor.

The - as of writing this - three vacuums are on the left hand side facing the building out back by the trees.

I did not gas up here, I did not go into the building, I did not use the car wash. But being able to quickly and reliably (and, in my experience, safely) hoover my car without queuing for a half hour or needing to buy something first or needing quarters was appreciated!

I had a gas station lobster roll three days ago from Irving Oil and they're about to get their four star block knocked off, having little to do with the lobster roll - more to do with the man why yelled "Hellooo, you must leave the premises. I think he was a manager - I'm gonna have a chat with his punk as__. Isn't there more to this review that flaming Irving - yes indeedie - the workers are wonderful - but Irving was the hundred and fourty second gun in the west - Irving -- sung high -- Irving sung low. Today there was a new recruit that furrowed his brow when I requested a breakfast sandwich - they're cheap and I feel kinda guilty ordering them but I make good balancing choices in the fields as I harvest and eat roots and cucumbers and cucurbits of all shapes and sizes. The town of coffee, although a bit trashed by sloppy people who can't press and pour without making a disaster of a mess - it's $1.07 and you can bring your own container of most any size, however, I stay with the 80s McDonald's non biodegradable foam they provide - which I do prefer, the cardboard doesn't hold heat well and is easily corrupted by my after work beer. The Beer Cave is a happening spot, all the way in the back and you can purchase and pound anytime of day, just not between 1am and 5am which is reasonable and they sell booze and wine and it's at all so very cheap - I could easily develop a bit of habit here in Maine - let's hope not. The magazine rack has local periodicals that cost a lot more than they deserve which isn't Cumberlands fault, their communist rags are so self serving to the posh Portland people, makes my stomach turn every Sunday morning, so I'll grab the freebies and read about Da Bearz and other high school sporting teams. Chips, dips plastic clad pies all of which I pass on but I've wanted a few gas station egg salad sandwiches which will serve you well in a pinch - that's all for now fine citizens of planet earth - until next time -

I have called them, and sent them emails continuously this season, nothing seams to work. they don't seam to be paying attention. I have never had a problem like this before, but I am in my 70s, and I really do not need this worry about running out of propane in the winter!

I'll look it up and fill it in. At 4:00 AM and any hours after midnight until then - nothing is open - yet Irving is and therefore must be awarded extra star power points to keep the lights on, coffee available and grab and go foods and drinks. The large coffee will cost $3.12 w/ tax, but will set you free from caffeines calling and with a long day ahead & the quality of the beans used, it's worth the extra dough ray me. Hot foods inside also add to the star points, as a traveler - a warm slice of pizza (perhaps a bit aged in the day) beats a cold turkey wrap. Road nomad tip: just Dunkin your pizza in your coffee for a hotter and faster breakfast after filling your tank and continuing the road. Clean outside and in - Mainers are typically good about not littering, some more than others and a few loosies can escape your clutches on a windy day, so there is a margin for litter error. Right bays to gas up, well lit and prices hover around the mid coast standard.

The druggists are A-1 I buy my milk there as they have the best prices for quality brands. I have never met a ''rude'' staff. Robots can be programmed to be perfect....humans are not robots and they can have off days. It is very difficult to find ''help'' with work ethics of 30-40 yrs ago. If a staff informed me that they have had a ''rotten day''..... I would be sympathetic and inquire about it.

It's been almost 10 years since I reviewed Big Top Deli and I thought I would refresh so that…read morereaders know I still enjoy this Deli. There's a reason we keep coming back - the food and service. The ambiance is ok. Basic tables and chairs and some "circus" type of decorations on the wall. They have a pretty consistent menu that really hasn't changed, at least not that I have noticed. They have "signature" sandwiches or you can build your own. They have hot and cold deli sandwiches available. They also have wedge fries that are oven baked. Family favorites; Sonny's Supreme and the classic italian. I also also love their breakfast sandwich options. They have a cooler of beverages. My favorite is Fresca. A soda I never have at home and I soda I always buy when I can at a deli. Pairs perfectly. Don't sleep on the sweets for sale by the register. The cookies and whoopie pies are usally tasty. The staff seems consistent - hardworking, customer service oriented and nice to interact with. They keep the simple dining area as clean as they are able - during the lunch hours during the week - this place is always packed!!! Wow...it's great to see and hope this means this buiness will stay around for years to come. Parking - many parking options within .5 mile from the location. We still visit here and we still recommend it to family and friends.

I really wanted to like Big Top Deli. My coworkers hyped it up to me a number of times and finally…read moreI took the opportunity to join them on a lunch break and give it a try. They have a very large menu and after sifting through it a bit, I chose "The Big Top" which is a pastrami Reuben. I, personally love Reubens and was excited to try a variation that was the namesake. I was ultimately dissapointed that the sandwich wasn't served on Rye bread and was considerably smaller than the sandwiches my coworkers got. The sandwich itself was tasty but the juices from the sauce made the bread soggy by the time we made it back to the office (short drive). I'm not sure if I made a bad decision or if my review accurately reflects the quality - I won't be going back unless I'm sitting down to eat the sandwich right away and I won't be getting the "The Big Top" again.
