I absolutely love this unique little spot. It's literally is in the middle of no where. The folks here are nice and the livestock are so friendly. We had a blast feeding the goats and mini donkey. They have a select assortment of snacks to get you to the next town. Just a heads up they don't have a public restroom. If your in need of a laugh and a pick me up this is a must stop. read more

Check out the inside of the shop for some interesting sights and bring a few quarters to feed the animals outside- especially Sunny, the dumbest of the herd and my personal favorite :) read more

Sublett Fuel Stop - Alpaca - Convenience Stores Near Me - Malta, Idaho

Depressing. The animals are sad and appear to be neglected in the hot sun. There is a little .25 cent pellet dispenser that takes your quarter, but doesn't dispense any pellets. the poor little alpacas, donkeys and goats are desperate for it too. read more

Sublett Fuel Stop - Skeletal alpaca - Convenience Stores Near Me - Malta, Idaho

No bathroom. in the middle of no where next stop is 30 miles away lol. There's 4 things to eat in the whole store also

Gas prices aren't on sign to hide the fact it's grossly overpriced. The animals are cute but it doesn't make up for the prices.

How can anyone not give this place a great rating? I drive salt lake to Boise a lot and it's a super boring drive, but stopping here makes the trips more fun. They have an adorable mini petting zoo out front and every time I come through, I take pictures with my animal friends. They also have funny, quirky cool stuff inside. My only suggestion for improvement is to add a bathroom so I can wash my hands after playing with the llamas. If you have kids, you have to stop! If you don't have kids like me, you still have to stop! read more

We have been on the road for 23 hours headed from Nebraska to Washington when we came across Sublett fuel stop. BEST EXPERIENCE!!! Good place to stretch your legs and the gentlemen at the counter was very polite and interacted with my two 7 year old boys! Yes prices were a little high, but come on guys in the middle of no where for a reason. ( plan accordingly)! We got to pet and feed donkeys and alpaca, see baby rattlers, snake eggs. This is an experience we will never forget. THANK YOU!!!!!! read more

Fill up in Snowville or Burley, gas prices here are over a dollar above average!!!! Oh but you can pet the alpacas... Update...1 star, 5 star, not the point. If I had read the reviews about your price gouging I would have fueled up in Snowville or sooner like I always do. This is more of a warning to future drivers. Not a dig to get your ratings down. read more

Terribly rude and overpriced. I'd rather crawl through the Idaho high desert and suck water from a cactus than darken their door ever again. I've seen them say hyper aggro things about other customers who give them bad reviews. Like, what are you doing?? I feel the need to disclose that I have been sitting on this review for a long time. I do not like to give reviews less than three stars unless there is evidence of actual malice--like a bad interaction happens and it isn't necessarily the business owners fault. This business owner has straight up malice and intentional disregard. Mean for no reason other than they can be. read more

Wow! My husband and I stopped here on our honeymoon by accident and had a blast! They have a petting zoo where you can pay 25 cents and feed the animals, hilarious signs in the shop that made us laugh so hard and super friendly staff! We also bought a few Idaho treats (since we're from California)! It was "the best gas station" we've ever been to! read more

They pull you in with a billboard that says "feed the alpacas." What they should also say is, "by the way, even though we are "in the middle of nowhere" (their claim), they won't allow customers to use their restroom. They ought to add that to their billboard. Keep going just a few miles further to Snowville. read more

Absolutely fantastic little stop! Not very big inside, but full of clever interactive jokes. They had my husband and I laughing with delight. The alpacas, goats, and donkeys were absolutely adorable. I loved the signs that introduced each one of them with a fun little blurb about their personalities. The Staff was very friendly, and indulgent when I ran back in for more quarters. It was an impulsive stop (can confirm that billboard is VERY effective) but became a highlight of our day. Honestly- I'm shocked by the hoity toity outrage I see in so many of the other reviews. Sure the gas is expensive, but nobody is forcing you to get it??? Plan your road trip better so you can be more selective where you stop for gas. Its never a smart idea to drive until your tank is almost empty. If your tank isn't almost empty- you can make it another 15 miles. The gas prices are likely reflective of where they're located- the only reason that gas prices stay consistent in cities is because those cities are already on the tankers route. Gas stations closer to where fuel is refined also have cheaper prices. You're not the only one out in the middle of nowhere- so is this business. As for the bathroom complaints- there's a sign that's very transparent about the fact there is not a bathroom to use. From the look of things my guess is the owner lives in the majority of the building. I wouldn't let people parade through my home to use my toilet either. Just pull off the road, open your car doors for some privacy, and pop a sqat. People get so put out when someone stops buying into the customer is always right mentality. But honestly? Nobody should put up with you being rude in person or online just because you're a customer. I'll just be here happily petting the alpacas while you choose your misplaced outrage. read more

The daughter had to go to the bathroom, and the state rest area traveling west was closed. The iPhone said this joint had a potty, and the sign on the road said they had alpacas! Bonus! Stopped in, and the sign on the door read "no restrooms". Very upsetting! How could this be!With no other options, and no time for any animal petting as she couldn't hold it another minute, we drove down the dead end road and "made do". On our way back we stopped and visited the animals and got some pellets for a quarter, the machine was almost out so we were lucky to be able to give them a treat. While cruising on down the road, I decided to look at the reviews of this spot, and the responses are HILARIOUS!! I wish we would have perused the shop. We'll be passing by again in a few days. Hopefully, it will be during business hours and I can take a peek inside. Not sure how many stars to give a place based on the yelp account management being so steller!!!!!! (I think it deserves 6 exclamation points and 5 stars) ps my gripe is now with whomever is running things at Apple. read more

Thieves, nothing short of thieves. They know that they're the only gas station for miles, and let's just say they hide their prices from the highway for a reason: they are criminally high. Don't even get me started on the quality of the station itself. TLDR: If at all possible, avoid this gas station. These greedy people do not deserve your money, and they will rob you of it. "Not your typical corporate gas station," they claim. Couldn't have put it better myself. At least most typical "corporate gas stations" try to provide quality and affordability, and aren't allowed to take advantage of people who don't have a choice. Hope you're able to sleep at night. read more

Do not stop here, the owner is a horrible man that sells items packaged in trash yet doesn't provide 1 trash can for use, he refuses to take even a wrapper to throw away. Oh, and no restroom so unless you want to pay for over-priced gas (not kidding, $4.11 June16th, 2021) and pay to feed his animals while he provides not 1 service to you, I would drive on by. read more

Amazing! Must-go stop on any road trip. Animals, good service, and don't get me started on the jokes. Hilarious and every where, they are witty and based on satire. Tons of gags and jump scares for you friends and family read more

I was driving from Hawthorne Florida to Portland Oregon... I was exhausted and becoming upset and eager to get home. On the way to get gas... I stopped through Cassia County, Idaho to get gas. I saw all the animals and became instantly excited! I had the opportunity to feed them with the coin machine full of goodies for the animals. I've never seen farm animals at a gas station. I went inside for some snacks and the gentleman behind the counter was funny! He scared me with a joke with a fake animal in a box. Like a jack in the box! Lol my whole experience was amazing and it made my day so much better... I really enjoyed this experience. When I pass through Idaho again, I will visit here. read more

Just updating my review...the owner's response was to point out how "grateful" I should be for their gas business to exist so I don't have to walk. I'm not sure what that has to do with my pointing out that that their prices are extremely high and that there are alternatives. I love supporting local businesses (check my other reviews averaging 4.5) especially since we are one as well and recognize the challenges in customer service where there isn't always enough appreciation or recognition. But to get into an unnecessary confrontation with a customer...unwise and likely confirms the validity of the other poor reviews. read more

stopped here with my mom just to see the animals so i can't speak on the entire place, but the animals could really use some better care. they're matted and dirty and in all honesty seem a little depressed. i feel sorry that to survive these creatures have to rely on owners who care more about witty comebacks on their yelp page than helping them. basic grooming goes a long way! read more

If I could give this place zero stars I would. HIGH gas price - NO public restrooms - and NO garbage cans. REALLY?!! Seriously?!? Never ever stopping here again. EVER!!!!! Keep going people! Seriously dude? I mean seriously dude!!!!!!!! While we were there, there was a mother with 2 small children who came up to us in the parking lot and offered to pay us $30 to use our trailer restroom. We of course told her no charge and to take all the time she needed in order to care for her children. The clerk told her the closest restroom was 10 miles. Seriously!?! And as for the caps lock?, it should have been THE ENTIRE REVIEW!! There are not enough words for me to say how bad your service (in the middle of nowhere) is. Not only what I've already said but now I'm even more apt to tell people . . . KEEP GOING ON BY! Lots of places a little further down the road that are actually wanting your business. read more

Update to respond to owner's comments: You'll see that of all my other reviews, the lowest I've given is a 3-star besides this establishment and even then, not often. I like to give people the benefit of the doubt, generally. I've visited your place twice on drives to/from SLC and have been treated poorly both times and I didn't want anyone else to have the same experience I did, so I posted this review as a kindness to other travelers. You may think that makes me look silly, but if it helps a fellow unsuspecting person on a road trip, that doesn't really matter to me. Best of luck to you. This isn't anything new, but this place is the worst. You could almost forgive the guy for his outrageous prices--he's got to make a living in that forsaken place, I guess--but to be just an outright jerk? To paying customers? Yikes. Do yourself a favor and don't stop here. Never again. read more

Super scary place. From the outside, it looks like a functional gas station and bathroom stop. There are no prices listed for cost of gas. After going inside looking for a restroom, there are none. The large building is mostly the personal residence of the owners who were rude and condescending. They have a petting zoo that had animals that looked in horrible condition. They write horror movies about places and people like this. read more

Total dump Gas is $1 a gallon more expensive than filling up at a real gas station No bathrooms No garbage to throw your trash out Animals look like they are dying outside read more

Nice place to stretch your legs Some fun friendly animals. Plenty of Tasty candies And some good laughs if you have a good sense of humour . I will say the gas was a litte spendy but it's worth for the stop and the fun. In this case less is more it's good fun read more

This station is out in the middle of nowhere, so if you have to have gas then stop. Expect to pay about a dollar more per gallon than other places. Also, there is no bathroom for customers. read more

What a fun place to stop and feed the animals while getting gas. I'd give a 5 but no bathroom or trash was a disappointment.

This may have a petting zoo but no bathrooms and no trash cans. Don't stop. Especially is your kid has to pee.

This is a clip joint, plain and simple: no amenities and exorbitant gas prices (as of Aug 29, 2020 around $3.80/gal for regular). I knew I should have stopped at the real gas station 20 miles earlier but I saw their big sign that led me to believe they were legit. I like alpacas as much as the next person, but I was trying to get somewhere, not looking for a mini zoo. Live and learn. Hey CF - If I'm wrong feel free to post your actual price per gallon read more

This is a definite must stop for anyone who is on a road trip with small children. Super friendly animals, clean area, cute little store inside. We weren't expecting a petting zoo when we stopped for gas ,so definitely a nice surprise.They also have a couple interactive surprises inside the store although it's not very big it's perfect for some quick selfies with the kiddos. The guy behind the counter was friendly and inviting, so it's a definite must stop for my family on our next road trip. read more

Very nice stop between Boise and Portland, lovely animals and great service, friendly folks.

Gas is almost a full dollar more than anywhere else. They don't even have the price on their sign outside so you won't notice until you pull up to the pump. This gas station uses their location to rip off unsuspecting customers. Actual highway robbery. Restroom was shut down when I stopped in, and based on other comments seems like it's been closed for weeks... There isn't even a trash can. Save your time and money and hit the next gas station 20 minutes down the road. read more

Scary and expensive. No restrooms nothing but sad livestock. Don't stop here. Gross dirty and one working pump $1 more a gallon than everyone else. read more

Sublett Fuel Stop - Convenience Stores Near Me - Malta, Idaho

Awful place to stop. Claim to be open 24 hrs, but that's not true. Claim to have fuel 24 hrs a day, also not true. We drive through on a Sunday (day they're closed despite being 24 hrs) and couldn't fuel up because the pump required input from the cashier who has nowhere to be found. Also no restroom anywhere in the vicinity despite being in the middle of nowhere. Do not stop here. Also, the gas is incredibly overpriced. read more

Wow, really no public restroom!? Price gouging on gas. Sad, hungry livestock, penned in our front. Drive a little down the road and pay better prices for a station that has bathrooms for their customers. A V O I D this place. read more

Gas is over priced. No restrooms! Alpacas and little donkeys are in a small space with little shade from the heat.

this was a wonderful stop, my mom and i are on a big road trip for spring break and this was a great pause, owner was super nice. all around good vibes, i'm not sure where all these bad comments are coming from i had a great time! read more

Awful. Just plain awful. Management here is rude, and inconsiderate and greedy. Don't waste your money, make buy your gas elsewhere. You'll save money. Can't wait to hear your snarky, sarcastic remarks. Want me to come tell you in person? Nobody has time for that crap. Go to hell. read more

gas was 5.00 a gallon, cos it's me 74:00 for 14 gallons of gas. on to of that they posted a no restroom sign on the door advising customers ton use the state owned restroom 15 miles down the road in either direction. if going west stop at the flying j right before the sublett rd station read more

This was such a wonderful surprise. We stopped for a bathroom break and to stretch our legs. The staff was so friendly and kind. My kids and wife loved the sweet animals and the tricks. read more

Dang this gas station owner is rude!!! I walk in and she's already speaking to me like I burned her house down. I needed a trash can for a water bottle and she said there was none and not to throw it in the bathroom trash either, as I'm leaving she actually stops me to ask what I did with my bottle, which I showed her was in my pocket. Don't ever stop at this dump, her attitude is what made me decide to get gas at the next exit. read more
