a display of snacks and drinks
Donn D.

Ga was inexpensive here, relatively speaking, but the pumps were crazy busy. Don't pull off here if you are just waning to make a phone call or send a text though as there is no cell reception in this valley. I mentioned this to the guy behind the counter who jokingly said "That's the white man or you, still gaping us natives down." I was amused as he was white as could be. The bathrooms were cleanish I suppose. Plenty of drinks and snacks are available.

This is a nice travel center which includes a gas station and a small dinner and an adjunct to a small casino area that has a security posted at the door at all times. The station looks clean and customer service is great. The staff is really nice and helpful overall. The sopapillas are delicious and cooked when you order. Prices are reasonable and affordable. They also sell lottery tickets at Thai location.

Country fried steak

Not a bad mid sized truck stop, service was a bit cold in the store. Restaurant was nothing special. Food was good but nothing to brag about. Ordered chili cheese fries and assumed I was getting normal chili on it but it came out with a chili red sauce ( wasn't very good! Don't recommend). Country fried steak was good ( had better had worse) but nothing tasted like it was made in house! Potatoes tasted like Bob Evans from the store. In all take it or leave it.

Decent food decent prices better than I expected at a travel center. For me it was nothing amazing but it's a great place to stop for a quick bite that isn't expensive and better than fast food. Service was also good the staff was friendly and you can seat yourself. The green chile was hotter than the red but I did enjoy both. Until I try more on the menu and test consistency I will update my review.

Indian taco (fry bread with chicken, pinto beans, Green Chile, lettuce and tomato's)

The food is bland, but great if you're on a no salt diet. Good luck if your waitress actually gives a hoot.

I wasn't looking forward to battling for a parking space at the decidedly sketchy truck stops in Albuquerque so I decided to stop here instead.

Phillips 66 - Clean women's restroom. (9/4/2023)

Phillips 66

This Phillips 66 gas station has a convenience shop attached to it just outside leaving Santa Fe…read moreheaded towards Clines Corners. My daughters and I stopped here on Labor Day 2023. There was a mostly clean, single women's restroom--much appreciated especially with two little girls. I did not notice a baby changing station, though. Sorry moms. Out front I noticed ample parking at around 2PM, but I can envision this place getting super crowded during bigger holidays. But then again, maybe not because I remember gasping, rolling my eyes, & thinking to myself "yeah f***in' right $4.20 for unleaded." Pssssshhhh... The clerk, while nice to the old woman in front of us, was a bit cold and strange during our encounter. Actually, he talked to & looked at my girls more than he did me even though I was the paying customer in the outfit. Big f***ing red flag with me. Then he didn't give me a receipt. I couldn't believe some candy, two small pizzas, snacks, and four drinks cost me nearly $38, but there that is. I just wanted out and shuffled my girls in front of me back to my vehicle. Dunkin' Donuts has a small little stand inside. It was pretty much depleted by that point in the day. Nah. Hard, quick pass for me next time - I'll abstain from stopping here ever again.

Stopped here for a last-minute restroom break and the place is great! The bathrooms are clean and…read morethe convenience store has a good variety of hot and cold treats. There's even a small pizza place nearby that boasts recognition for its good eats! All around, a great stop.
