    Medium coffee $2.15
    Tara T.

    Most of the time Maverik is an okay spot. It's so close to my house that I walk here on the weekends when I don't want to make coffee. The women who work here are okay with me paying in spare change. I usually have pocket full of coins that I want to get rid of. My medium coffee is exactly $2.15. This Maverik is always busy, people in and out all day. Definitely happy it's nearby.

    Was car shopping for my 17-year-old, ran across this maverick's. Was craving some Brazilian/Sumatran coffee and I really like Mavericks coffee. This Maverik's set up like all the others, so it was nice to be familiar with where everything is. Kids also got $.99 drinks. And a couple of breakfast burritos for four dollars. The cashier was quite friendly. We talked about some of the other Mavericks that have the bonfire grill. This does not have the bonfire grill... Definitely would come back if I'm on this side of town, which is rare LOL.

    Adventure begins here, y'all! That is the Maverik motto, and I love that outdoorsy-ness is a consistent theme of this gas station. Outdoors stuff is painted on the pillars outside and there's a frickin' kayak over the milkshake machine! Mind you, to get four stars from me, a gas station needs to be convenient, clean, and have a good alcohol selection. This Maverik goes above and beyond in having friendly employees and a fantastic fresh and packaged food selection. Gas is relatively inexpensive, and even cheaper if one has a Nitro loyalty debit card. The parking lot is spacious, and I've never had to wait for a pump. No fear of being trapped at a pump here! The food and alcohol part of this gas station is great. Maverik has a well-stocked beer fridge and chilled whites and usually one cheapo bubbly. I've never looked for reds here, come to think of it, but I suspect they would have some. The donuts are tasty, and if the Son of the Beast sandwich had a croissant rather than a donut as the "bread," I'd be all over it. The employees are always really friendly, regardless of whether it's a 11 pm alc run or a 5:30 am drive o' shame coffee and donuts and bathroom outing. There are two nice picnic table areas on either side of the building that I've seen people use, and I also kinda love that it's the place that very young teenagers from Curti Ranch walk to with their allowance money. Five stars, Maverik.

    Best milkshakes around.

    Gas station? Yes. Excellent gas station? Yes. Gas price was fair for the area but the best part - the food. The food you say? I know. Shocking. First off - they have a f'real milkshake / smoothie machine. I became a fan of these at Wawa gas stations on the east coast. So nice to find them here. You basically grab a flavor from the fridge/freezer - mango smoothies, mint chocolate chip milkshakes, coffee (with ACTUAL coffee not just coffee flavoring) - and place it in the blender. Choose the thickness and minutes later you are slurping up goodness! As far as snacks - plenty to choose from. Warm food like pizzas, burritos and mini tacos. Also donuts, lunchables, etc. Standard, yes? Extra points for having a toppings and sauce area for the items purchased there - including a pretty tasty pico de gallo I topped my mini tacos with. The gas pump are was well stocked with windshield cleaning squeegees and soap as well as paper towels. They also have the good nozzles that make filling a motorcycle up quite easy. The restroom was also quite clean. Not the typical gas station restroom. Seemed as if it was inspected and cleaned quite frequently. This is a great chain and a great location. I will definitely stop by for a milkshake or a fill up - maybe both. Happy car and happy tummy.

    Zoinks!

    I've got gas... Facilities are usually reasonably clean. Pricing is relatively competitive. Be sure you get your Mavrick card, so that you can save a couple cents per gallon. You can also get points on your card redeemable for swag and contests. Occasionally one of the pumps will not be working, and the rest will be packed with people. Ice is cheap, but seems to be packaged on site, with tapwater based on the taste. Overall decent experience for a gas station.

    Pulling into the gas station

    This is the kind of gas station you want to find on a road trip. They have an entire wall of fridges with beverages. They have 6 different icee type beverages. They just installed a new soda fountain that allows you to mix different flavor syrups into your favorite brand of soda. They have a f'real milkshake machine. They have snacks, candy, and any road side item you might need close at hand. They even have the cleanest bathrooms I've ever found in a gas station EVER! This place has it ALL in a nice, clean, well kept store. It is a haven you want all gas stations to be when you stop in for munchies on a road trip and just happen to need to use the bathroom and then you know, maybe even get gas too! I wish these were found everywhere I need to drive because I love this place that much!

    Every time I go to any Maverik gas station several pumps are down. It's either the pump isn't working or the ATM part isn't working.

    Solid edition, the chain lineup in South Reno. Normally this wouldn't be my choice, but I've got…read moreyoung kids and they are all about the chicken tenders. Luckily, the ones here at Slim Chickens are fresh and well seasoned, and it come with a range of delicious Housemade sauces that made for a great experience each time. Unintentionally the spot has become our go to value meal when the kids are pleading for us to take them out for lunch for dinner. The Sunday special where a kid meal is $1.99 with the purchase of an adult meal has become a once a month treat. Having the app also has exposed to other unique offerings and their newest menu addition too. They've been doing a lot of solid digital marketing in the general vicinity as well and I often find great value offerings through that channel as well. Most recently that was discovering the 20 piece boneless Hall, which for $10 was enough to feed both of my kids or me a little snack and one of the kids as well. Four stars is because sometimes the offerings shown online are a little tricky to find either in the app or at the kiosk in store. I've had to start orders on the kiosk, then abandoned them and then head to the cash register where the friendly staff is more than willing to jump in and help me locate exactly what I'm talking about. They've never seemed to not know about a promotion which I do really appreciate. The chicken tenders are usually well cooked and crispy and juicy, but I do find them a bit on the salty side personally, some of the sauce is also fall a little bit flat. I tried the cayenne ranch last visit and thought it barely had a kick or any flavor beyond being just a loser style ranch dressing. The fries are really weird. I think they need some work unless I say something specifically I feel like I always get the end of the bachelorette prize they're warm, not hot but they're limp and often quite greasy if I ask them well done or Crispy I feel like they get overcooked so I just don't know at this point how to best enjoy the french fries here. All that service is always 100% and the staff is always able to put a smile on your face. My kids ripped through the sauces and the staff never hesitate to hook them up with extra one or two and they always treat them with the same respect, they would treat us at the counter, which I greatly appreciate. Again, I'm very solid addition to self Reno from Guy Wootan. I'm happy my kids dragged me in the first time and will continue to visit in the future.

Slim Chickens might be called "slim" because their portions leave a lot to be desired. Overall portions are too small and items are very overpriced! I ordered the wrap and it cost over $10 for the wrap alone. It came out and the wrap was max 6 inches long and very small, hardly any chicken and used too much ranch (probably to cover the dryness). It was gone in a few bites. For reference, the sauce cups are the small sauce cups that hold maybe a tablespoon of sauce. The wrap was barely the size of a snack wrap. Do with that what you will. Kind of a rip off.

It's clean inside, the service is efficient, and the kids' meals…read moreare a fantastic price (especially if you choose a milk-- that cup was huge for a kids' meal so we definitely got our money's worth). My burger was a standard burger that got the job done (very meat forward opposed to a symphony of flavors), so my 4 star is actually more so for the value of the kids' meals. The kids' meals were extremely generous in portion (huge grilled cheese, large milks, big French fries). The chicken tenders were kid approved; they didn't have a noticeable spice or pepper seasoning to them. They were soft inside and crunchy (but not overly) on the outside. The kids' grilled cheese was massive but the bread was fluffy and soft so still easy enough for my 5 year old to take a big bite and the ratio of cheese to bread was perfection). I will say it seemed a bit dark inside and my 7 year old didn't dig the ranch (it did have a bit of a sharp garlic flavor to it, and it was very thick). I'd recommend here if you're searching for a kid friendly meal and want to find a good value. (We have 4 kids so we are always looking for restaurants where we don't get sticker shock on the kids' meals).

Props to Burger Me for being one of the only smash burger locations in Reno to be open on a Monday during lunch hours! With that being said, the menu options are focused on burgers, with really one option for smash burgers. I asked for what meat options could be made into a smashburger, and was told beef only. I was craving a western style smashburger and as-is, the one option didn't fit the bill. I asked to substitute or pay for onion rings on the burger in place of carmelized onions, and my brain didn't comprehend that I could order onion rings on the side and put them on myself. I was offered to have fried onions substituted and I said yes. There's several sauce options and I chose the bbq sauce, naturally. I also ordered garlic fries on the side. The burger itself is two beef patties that are each smashed, place on top of each other. I think each one has cheese on top, but I was too hungry to look for that before diving in. There's enough pickles to be in every bite, and it was glorious. The patty itself was seasoned, but I could only taste the seasoning in certain parts. I could still taste the seasoning with and without the bbq sauce, and it was yummy. Bbq sauce tasted like bbq sauce, it fit the bill 100%. If you're looking for a normal sized smash burger, ask for only one patty. I couldn't finish the whole burger and I can normally eat a whole smash burger to myself. My food was served probably in 15 mins. I also came in before a bigger lunch crowd so that probably helped. As for the atmosphere, I really appreciate the booths and tables. There's also arcade games near the back, with a clear glass so you can keep eyes on little ones while in the main restaurant. The bathroom was clean, although I wish there was a hook for my purse in the bathroom. It looks like there used to be one, but it got removed or broke off.

I needed to transfer more money so I did that. Had the young man run it again and it now said I owed $15 something which made zero sense considering a minute ago I only owed $5 something. Then a manger came over, another young man. Cancelled the transaction and tried to run the card again. Now it was completely declining. Manager said he could not do anything about it because it depended on how long my bank processed payments. Even tho I could show him and like 4 other employees all standing at the window that it was showing processed on my card. Ultimately told me there was nothing he could do as the manager. I ended up having to drive away with not only none of our order but also none of my money on my card from the processed payment. Although the boys were all pretty patient and kind it was not handled appropriately in my opinion.
