Stopped here for the night in order to get a few hours of rest before heading to the Bay Area. I…read morewould not choose this location to stop again. It was 40 degrees and men were on bikes going inside the truck park areas and looking in vehicles. Inside the truckers parking area, there are homeless encampments with piece of chairs, mattresses, junk and other items thrown everywhere. The lighting was good. The bathrooms were filthy, blood on the walls and feces looked like it exploded inside and out of the toilet. Thankful I brought sandals and my own towel so I could shower the next morning. The showers were not as bad as the bathrooms but there were still used razors in the bathroom. The management needs to consider assisting customers in the order they arrive, but the man behind the counter had no sense of direction. It was strange that he would speak English impeccably at times and then others act like he couldn't even understand the questions I would ask. Be careful as you walk into the gas station, it looks like someone just opened all of the deliveries, stocked the shelves and then threw the trash out the front door. It's an accident waiting to happen, so tread carefully. The place has tons of potential, just need the right person running the place.

They don't allow pets and we got scolded for it by a guy who was inside of some food "truck" bus serving bacon (don't remember what it was called exactly). We honestly had no idea, there was supposed to be a sign but we didn't even see it because it blown over (see picture). Anyway, there was an older lady who had her ankle-biting chihuahua with her that my boyfriend pointed out. The guy then said "I don't care. It's in a carrier." Was it in a dog-stroller? Yes. But if dogs aren't allowed then they're not allowed. The guy also mentioned there had been too many incidents in the past with DOGS biting people... Wtf. I find that hard to believe. We didn't need to get talked to and turned away so rudely. Made me wonder if the guy was slightly racist.

These strawberries are simply amazing. They are the sweetest strawberries that I have ever tasted…read more. I think they secretly inject sugar into the centers of them because that is the only logical explanation on why they are so sweet and delicious. You can get 3 baskets for only $7 dollars.

Stopped by and picked up some raspberries, apple juice, and kettle corn…read more They were out of other fruits by the time I got there (close to closing). Kettle corn was DELISH!

I washed some for my kid the next day and noticed mold growing on 4 of them. Eww...

They did however have lots of other snacks and goods in stock, including hot sauce, olive jars, nuts, chocolate, garlic, garlic ice cream, and cold beverages. We picked up some oranges, dark chocolate almonds, and ghost pepper hot sauce.

Happy is not adjectivally-accurate enough to describe how I feel. I'm ecstatic! The green miracle…read moreworkers at Happy Boy Farms are tremendously good at what they do, which is to turn out year-round, organic and ultra-fresh vegetables, herbs, and leafy yumminess from their farms in Watsonville and the Gilroy and Soquel areas. Their mesclun and lettuce mixes ($5/lb bag or loose) are really exceptional and typically last all week long. The tomato and melon offerings in the summer are great, and the autumn stuff, like squash, radishes, kale, chard, etc. are also go-to picks for us. The fresh herbs are lovely and cost around $1.25 for a decently-sized bunch. We also get their fennel to slice it razor-thin in our mandolin or toss it in vegetable soups spiked with brown miso paste. Great stuff! The Happy Boy crew also won the San Mateo Halloween costume contest this year, which was a lot of fun. Saturday mornings at the College of San Mateo parking lot is the hottest ticket in town!

We were starving and badly needed a pit stop along 152 heading west. We stopped at Merry Cherry's…read moreFruit Stands after reading a few reviews. We bought the sweetest ever organic strawberries. They had a fruit washing station / sink! How cool is that, in the middle of nowhere? We gobbled up the washed strawberries in a couple of minutes, LOL. I usually don't use port-a-potties, but I really needed to go. I was surprised that it didn't smell, they had toilet seat liner, hand soap, and paper towels! Overall a surprisingly pleasant experience. I recommend stopping here for fresh fruits at reasonable prices, and, if you badly need to do number 1, try their port-a-potty... there are limited options on 152 between highway 5 and gilroy.
