They’re right off the interstate, typically at about the intervals you’d pit stop anyway, so convenience is a factor.
The food is pretty decent for fast food, tons of snack selection including lots of their house brand, at least a dozen flavors of their jerky. Prices are somewhere between grocery store and convenience store, but some of their house brand stuff is pretty competitive. They’ve got a lot of clothing and housewares, think like a cross between a Cracker Barrel and a Target. Gas is typically reasonable for the region in my experience, bathrooms are famously clean.
It’s kind of the perfect spot to stop for gas on a trip: stretch your legs, pee, grab a hot sandwich, maybe some flavored popcorn to snack on later, grab a blanket with a big beaver face on it cuz the kid’s trying to sleep in the back and you forgot to pack one. It’s a true one stop shop.
Their gas prices are always cheaper than anything else you’ll find just of the highway. They literally lose money on gas sales - just so you will possibly buy something in the store.
The prices in the store aren’t cheap (about what you’d expect from a highway-side gas station), but you can get all kinds of stuff in there. BBQ, roasted nuts, deli sandwiches, fudge, and some of the best beef jerky around
They’re like a super store, but also have gas and impressively good BBQ sandwiches. They sale a bit of everything. Like an ikea for road trips.
Huh, weird. Are prices reasonable? Or are they typical gas station prices where it’s way cheaper to just hit a grocery store first?
For road trips, I usually just hit a grocery store the night before and don’t bother with actually going into any convenience stores the entire trip.

I mean, it makes sense. What kind of psychopath goes to a buc-ees and only gets gas? That’s like going to Disney World and only riding the tram.
