I had not been inside a Buc-ee's store in more than 10 years. After my car politely informed me…read morethat I had about 30 miles before I would be searching for a gas station on foot, I made an emergency stop at Buc-ee's in Bastrop, TX. Note to self...if forced to choose between power shopping with friends and putting gas in your car, choose the gas. Everything is bigger in Texas, and Buc-ee's may be the poster child for that saying. From the moment you pull into the parking lot, the scale is impressive. Rows upon rows of gas pumps stretch across multiple sections, making it feel more like a fueling complex than a gas station. OMG!!! Step inside, and the experience gets even bigger. The place is enormous, with bright lighting, oversized signage, and enough merchandise to keep you wandering through the store for hours. Buc-ee's branding is everywhere, from water bottles and tumblers to outdoor furniture and clothing. One of the first things you'll notice is how incredibly clean everything is, especially the restrooms. My favorite feature? The red and green occupancy lights above each stall, eliminating the awkward lean-and-peek maneuver to check for availability. The food selection is a major highlight and far beyond what you'd expect from a typical travel stop. Fresh barbecue, brisket tacos, sandwiches, and the famous Beaver Nuggets are at your fingertips. There is also an astonishing selection of jerky, both packaged and freshly sliced, along with endless snacks, sweets, and drinks. And yes, they even have an in-store tortilla station. I definitely wasn't expecting that. Buc-ee's stands out for its sheer variety. Beyond the food, you'll find clothing for adults and children, swimwear, home goods, souvenirs, gifts, and enough Texas-themed merchandise to outfit an entire ranch. It feels like a travel center, gift shop, convenience store, and mini department store all rolled into one-stop shopping. Needless to say, Buc-ee's is a whole vibe. What started as a quick gas stop turned into an unexpectedly entertaining detour, and I thoroughly enjoyed my swing through.

I hadn't been to this location in a while. It is a typical Buc-ee's, though it seems smaller than…read moresome of the newer stores. The gas prices are lower than most, and the restrooms are clean, which are definitely positives. However, I've started to notice that food prices are getting too high for my budget. Additionally, I've observed a decline in the quality of some items they make in-store, like the BBQ sandwiches. Furthermore, this location isn't the easiest to exit if you're heading east on Highway 71. I hope they keep their prices competitive, but I'm seeing more competition around them, so I might start trying other places. Ultimately, price is the most important factor for me.

This QT didn't open too long ago, but I've passed it many times on the trip from Austin to Houston…read more I hadn't had the opportunity to stop in until today. Given their location across the "street" from Buc-ee's, I assumed QT would bring their A-game to this location. Instead, it was pretty average all around. Bathrooms weren't particularly clean, and the overall store was about as clean as tidy as you'd see a Pilot or Love's. I thought the prices actually were a tad higher than Buc-ee's but it probably depends on the item. I am 'over' the Bu-cee's experience and crowds myself, but still, I'd wait the minute or two to turn at the TX-21 light and pay them a visit over this particular QT.

The former Mexican Restaurant inside gas station, which was never open, has been replaced. The new…read moreone offered authentic Mexican tacos on handmade tortillas. Tacos are $2.50 or $3.50 each, depending on the taco. The attendant who took our order translated for the cook. All the ingredients were more on the Mexican side of Tex Mex. If you ask for spicy salsa, they give you a little bit of what looks like a cool, green creamy avocado salsa. But don't get fooled by appearances. It packs a wallop! We each two tacos each and were very full. I had a mole taco and a barbacoa taco. My wife had bacon egg and cheese tacos. They were all generously filled. They're authentic enough that you really don't need to add cheese. And the bacon was the type you get at the Super Mercado, not at HEB. It's all pretty authentic, and I'm glad it's so close to home. I'm keeping my 5-star rating for this place. It's an Aim Mart now (no longer Woodies), with an Exxon out front, this Mexican place, Hunt Brothers Pizza, clean restrooms and a beer cave inside. They have nice 70% dark chocolate bars (several to choose from), and your standard convenience store items. Each has pump has a squeegee with soapy water. And there's always people shopping there but never a line. What more can you ask for in a gas station?

Very dissatisfied customer.... I was there one evening fairly late with two friends. One needed to…read morepurchase something from inside the store while the other needs to use the restroom. My friend who is purchasing comes outside and we wait about 1 minute for the friend using the restroom. Once that individual was in the car we stayed and were chatting for maybe 4-5 minutes to figure out what our plans were next. I get an angry glare from an employee with longer white hair. So I make confused face and she comes outside. Her first words were "can I help you" which of course rubs me the wrong way considering yes you did just help us actually inside when purchases an item from you store.... Then her next words are... "Well I can call The police" ....EXCUSE ME?!?!?!?!?!? Where was I wrong here folks? My honest opinion is because we are all in our mid 20's she was assuming we were up to something???? I'm not sure what her reasoning was.. So I politely pulled away when she said she would call the police ( for no reason ). I wanted to get an explanation because it's not fair for anyone to treat someone that way. I called up to the store to only communicate with the same immature woman. She wouldn't give me her name, the only info she would give me was the managers name and what time she came in the next day. She was rude. Yelling. She hung up in my face more than three times so of course I tried to call back and she wouldn't even answer. HOW DOES THIS PERSON HAVE A JOB IN CUSTOMER SERVICE???? I was getting no where with her so I waited until the next morning to talk to the manger... She first told me she hadn't heard about the situation and then after I explained my side she quickly responds "that's not what I heard" wow.... So you did know what happened....?! She clearly wasn't interested in making me happy, calm me down , or try and explain Its a manager in customer service I find that COMPLETELY unacceptable. I asked her to watch the cameras and she rudely replied she had a lot of stuff to do (at a gas station) and didn't know when she would have time. All I wanted was an apology.. And it's now a week and a half later and her "promised" call never came..... Nor an apology. Claps for Martha

It seems the servers ALWAYS end breakfast early...sometimes they say they only have lunch items around 10 o' clock (not okay). The service is not the best, they seem very laid back & not customer friendly. No apologies for CONSTANTLY not serving breakfast up until the time they are suppose to. And it seems as if now the food quality is going down as well. Today the rice tasted a bit off & we only received ONE PIECE of fajita in both are fajita tacos....that's just unacceptable. I have contacted the main offices in regards to my experience with them because I have just had it with the horrible experience over and over again.

I used to really like this little hole-in-the-wall convenience store--I don't drink, so I've never…read morebeen to the liquor store side, but the convenience store side has a bunch of little trinkets and stuff including several items that most smoke shops in bastrop don't have. I've only ever seen one woman working, and she has always been nice & kind. UNTIL TODAY. I know they close at 8. I have had a long day working at home, and it takes me 20 min to drive into town, and today I'm doing it purely to come here because I like them, and they conveniently carry stuff I need. But wouldn't you know, I pull up at 7:48 and they are walking out. I think that's odd, they're closing almost 15 min early which is pretty crappy business practice, but regardless oh great I've caught them just in time. How foolish of me to think so...I wave to the woman, who surely recognizes me as a regular customer at this point, and say oh I'm just in time I only need one thing! and she looks at the older man who presumably runs the liquor shop and he starts shaking his head saying "no no no no, 8 o'clock we out of here!" Mind you, THE TIME IS NOW 7:50, and I pulled up several minutes ago. But they do not have one care, and lock their damn doors in my face. The trouble actually started yesterday (Sunday; the above happened on a Monday)--their hours on every online map & resource say the convenience store side is open on Sundays from 3-8pm. So I drive that damn 20 min to show up at 3:30-no one. Their barely legible hand scrawled hours on the door say closed on Sundays, of course. The liquor part yes, but why the store part? Alright whatever, great, perfect y'all, please make sure your freaking hours are updated on the internet, it's not that difficult! So that was another however many gallons of gas wasted two days in a row. Mostly I was just really let down & disappointed because I thought I'd found a perfect little place to make my new shop, but after this evening, having the door locked in my face 10+ min before closing time, it left me feeling really unvalued as a customer--like they don't give a crap, they just want to leave ASAP. Which also says something about the sort of establishment this probably is and what it's like to work at. Needless to say, I won't be returning:( and am back on the hunt again for a smoke shop with a decent selection & price range that doesn't require me to drive 45 min into Austin. Ugh.
