In addition to clean bathrooms, what else does a gas station need? If it doesn’t become part of the trip, it isn’t worth a stop.
Here are four of our favorite places to pull over on our vacations. Which ones are your favorite brands to visit?
Buc-ee’s
If you’re a fan of Buc-ee’s, you’re probably a Texan. While you can find these stores in many southern states, Texas is where they began.
These convenience stores feel more like a budget department store with as many offerings. It’s no wonder why people come here for weekly shopping as well.
Wawa
Although they have seen rapid expansion in the south, Wawa started in PA. They made a name for themselves with made-to-order sandwiches, meals, and coffees.
The insides of these stores offer an impressive range of grocery items, too. Wherever you are visiting next, “you gotta have a Wawa.”
Sheetz
While Sheetz shares the state with Wawa, it does have other features. In addition to food and beverages, Sheetz acts as an all-in-one truck stop.
One-part family restaurant and one-part supermarket, it’s tough to find a better convenience store. Many of them are also open 24-hours daily too.
Hy-Vee
Unlike the other brands, Hy-Vee is a true supermarket. Because it’s employee-owned, it’s also a great value.
You can find many different products and meals, all at affordable pricing. Since they have a fuel program, you can save a ton on gasoline, too.
