Super decent stop in Emporia. We needed to stop here for a break while driving to central Kansas to visit family. I was impressed by how clean it was and also by how friendly the staff working was. Between the four of us we popped in and out a few times, got some snacks, used the restroom, and took some time to feed the baby before we got back on the highway. 4/5 stars because I was really hoping for a canned cold brew and they only had coffee energy drinks which I don't care for. I ended up getting some kind of frozen coffee thing they sold, which was fine, but it would be nice to have a few more options. read more

Usually if someone that is not very tall (or not very well endowed) tries to hit on Barbie, she says "short, stop." She prefers them tall and more endowed, what can I say. She's pretty typical in that regard. So in terms of gas and convenience, this is a great place in the middle of nowhere, which we use once in awhile to get some gas and some convenience store items, because they're considerably cheaper than a lot of other places. We like the Short Stop for this reason and many other reasons. It's in Emporia, a sleepy town on the plains of Kansas that is about halfway between KC and the OK-KS border on 35. We stopped for gas here on a couple of occasions when passing across Kansas and I'm sure there will be more times in the future. read more

Semi drivers, beware. The only way you can get the fuel price posted on their outdoor sign is to pay cash, and the only way that happens is if you hand them your driver's license or get this, the clerk actually asked me to give her my bank debit card to hold! Yeah right, that sounds like a smart move, giving that over to a total stranger to hang on to for 10 minutes while you leave them alone with it! Theres cameras everywhere so the policy makes no sense and it invites big trouble for the driver. This comes off as a scam to get you in there and then you pay 6 cents more per gallon to use your credit card so that Ms. Employee doesn't get to hold onto your livelihood for the discount. Everyone knows you never hand over sensitive info to a total stranger. read more

I've had my Phil of Philips 66, but not really, because it's a great option for gas around here…read more This is a very cheap gas station that we use whenever we're up in Emporia, and they have quite a few really cheap gas stations around here, but this one definitely usually has a lower price than the others. So it's cheap and its clean and easy to use and it's right off the ring road of Emporia heading to the highway.

Stopped for some gas and coffee. The Short Stop coffee machines are new - and worth the stop!…read moreI didn't see refill prices posted so I asked the helpful clerk. Then my cup was too tall to fit under the spigot but she helped me with that too. LOVE the vanilla espresso!!!
