Being here makes me incredibly sad that I don't have one anywhere near me…read more Let's talk about the hot food first ! We had the best brisket sandwich. The sauce is a little sweet, I recommend the sliced brisket over the chopped brisket any day. I would recommend to just skip The three meat sandwich, all you could taste is a sausage- and this may be a hot take... But I don't love the sausage. As for the chicken tenders, wait until it's hot fresh and just put out and it's a life-changing experience. The Buc-ee's sauce is the only way to go. You can get barbecue sauce or honey mustard at any other place. The fries are definitely better than the homemade chips. I did not like those chips, I don't know if I just didn't have them hot and fresh, but I would say skip them. We got some banana pudding to go. Also, would not recommend. It's vanilla pudding with some bananas and wafers. I like my banana pudding to be banana pudding not vanilla pudding with bananas, etc.. We grabbed some essential road trip, snacks, including Buc-ee's nuggets, two different kinds of beef, jerky, peanuts, pickle, flavored potato sticks, and some of their signature mince, both the cotton candy and the traditional. We also got some of their signature cola. The diet cola was mid, the regular was better. and in addition to the snacks and food, we also picked up a hat and a T-shirt for both of us. The staff were amazing. This place is like Grand Central Station, it gets very crowded very fast. Speaking of fast, the cashiers and folks working at the meat carving station were legendarily fast.. The whole experience is great ftom the moment you park in the clean parking lot until the moment you checkout! and if you need to use their bathrooms those are also pristine with a great light system that tells you exactly which stall is open. This place is a well oiled machine designed to be a road tripper's paradise

I love Buc-ee's as much as the next person, but this location is one to avoid. Navigating the…read moreparking lot is pure automotive torture. The merging lanes are a chaotic free-for-all where nobody takes turns. It's incredibly stressful. On top of that, you can find cheaper gas, much easier in-and-out access, and far superior barbecue just a little further down the road. If you don't specifically need a Buc-ee's run for peppermints or snacks, save your sanity and bypass this one.

Like other spots I've reviewed though you end up trying to take your life in your own hands if you attempt to walk anywhere but towards the main 'mall' portion of the complex. The access road has no sidewalks/crossing and is treated like a raceway by the locals. Your kids either need to be light or fast to cross the roadway to get to the Starbucks and there are no sidewalks so you have to dodge cars racing to get in line or cutting through the O'Charlies.

Poor Maintenance - Would Not Stay Again…read more "Stayed here for one night while traveling home from a road trip. Unfortunately, the condition of the room was far below what we expected. The sink faucet was broken, there were no lamps--only one light in the far corner of the room--making it difficult to see. The window blinds were damaged and uneven, offering very little privacy. The carpet was worn and threadbare, and the TV cables were hanging out of the wall, which raised safety concerns. We arrived late and the hotel was fully booked, so we weren't able to request a different room. Otherwise, we would have done so immediately. Overall, the room felt neglected and in serious need of maintenance. Based on this experience, I would caution others before booking here and would not choose to stay again."

It's kind of hard to see from the interstate. So don't miss pulling off here if you are in town..

There are times I just dread going into this store. I should have known better than to go today on…read moreNew Years Eve. Pushy customers acting like I was in their way. Pushy people at the check out line acting like I was in there way - even though my transaction was not completed yet and I was trying to get my bags. And the in a rush young people fulfilling Amazon Orders for Prime or trying to stock the shelves - I can't tell you how many times I have been treated as is I was an impediment to what they are trying to do even though I am a paying customer trying to navigate my way through the store. it gets to me sometimes. There are too many people trying to shop in this store for the size of it. Too many people "In a Rush" to get on with their lives. I do feel like I am back up in the North East sometimes when I go there. The best times to shop are during Tennessee Game Days or on a Tuesday night of all things. I go there because they do have things that other markets in the area do not have - fruits, vegetables, organic products. I do like the fish market guys. I do like certain cashiers and try to always go to them. I do like being able to find certain products there that I cannot find anywhere else - . I do like their supplements. There are things I do like. But the whole Prime thing (order fufillment) has put a huge black mark by the shopping experience. They really need to train their restocking people to be mindful of the customers and to be a little nicer while they do it. But between trying not to get run over in the parking lot when I am trying to get into the store and not getting run over while I am in the store by the oh so many busy people in there, it has gotten to where my stress levels goes straight up when I shop there. What I will do is try to go during off hours, and I do try to do that. But this is a pattern. My opinion is that for the amount of customers they have and the amount of order fufilment they do - the store probably needs to be twice as big as it is. I gave them three stars - but like I said - it is always a stressful experience for me.

This was a Sunday around 1pm Only 8 stalls with one broken. Place was packed. People are coming down a mountain climb and will need these chargers. I'm surprised a supposedly green city only has eight of these things. Could use another eight for traffic going the other way. Probably be wiser to swing up towards Bristol like we did going the other way than stopping here. Could find yourself waiting. Bristol TN was a less busy and more options stop. The woodys steak and wings in the mall food court is a great health be damned option too :)

Last time we were here in Cherokee, my husband and I vowed to stay at this hotel-casino next…read moretime... So our latest excursion to Cherokee (mainly to resupply our stock of THC lol), we stayed overnight at the hotel. First of all, the positives! The hotel-casino is quite unique in many ways. It's definitely NOT The Venetian or the Mandalay...with its Vegas-style loft and splendor. It's a MUCH more subdued, modest version of a hotel casino...much smaller. In fact, you can walk from one of the hotel-casino within 15 minutes. Still large...but not Vegas Large. The hotel is also very senior-friendly...with its lush carpeting throughout. Walking on these carpets make you feel as if you're roller skating. Very easy on the joints...so for someone like my husband, with knee issues, and me with my sporadic ankle issues (a long life in heels!), this had to be a lush walk in the park! The hotel also has a rustic style...almost a ranch housing style...complete with a rustic creek right outside. It really matched the Cherokee vibe. Despite the size, the hotel-casino houses plenty of eats and drinks, including a Gordon Ramsey food court...an upscaled food court with chef-inspired street foods. The foods were pretty good (for a food court especially!), but my repeat complaint is that the place is understaffed...and possibly under-managed. Also, the online-screen ordering system is NOT senior-friendly. They also have nicer restaurants on site, like the Guy Fieri's Kitchen + Bar, Ruth Cris, Soco Smokehouse, Amici's, etc.etc. Now the disappointing parts. Again, the entire hotel-casino seems understaffed. Even during busy check-in hours, there were only 2 reps working the hotel reception desks! We stayed in the Mountain Tower, the newer buidling...so newer rooms! As expected, the room was quite nice upon entering. Seemed very new...and clean. However, as you look closer, you'll see and feel all the cracks. The room and bathroom amenities were quite weak (not even water bottles offered in the rooms, for one)...yet you pay nearly 40 bucks a night on resort fees! The bath amenities were also cheap! As new as the room was, the the toilet lever and the tissue holder was already looking like it was cracking. The mattresses on the bed were super soft and super cheap...and ridiculously creaky! Possibly the creakiest mattress I've experienced in decades!!! The A/C was also very weak (felt 72 at 67 degrees)...and you can hear this fairly loud noise (almost like a mini helicopter flying over your bed?) the whole time! You can just tell that the hotel management did a ton of cost cutting within these rooms...even the newer additions! On top of these substandard room amenities, the worst part?!? Their check-in time is 4 pm! I know more and more hotels are going toward later check-in times, but I feel this is a huge scam. Guests are expected to pay more for less hours in a room...one that isn't even being cleaned on a daily basis (but every few days). Not sure how often they cleaned these rooms, however, since we only stayed 1 night. Overall, we still managed to enjoy the stay...walking around the plush carpeted hotel, doing some minor league gambling (slot machines), and eating-drinking in (without having to drive out of the hotel). However, be warned...this is NOT the Vegas quality you might come to expect from hotel-casinos.

The service desk was very helpful, and as a newcomer, I received a $25 table coupon, which was a nice bonus. The food court had several fast food options--quick, convenient, and satisfying between games. Roulette is my go-to, and luckily, I had a good run and even won some money, which definitely made the trip more fun. Overall, it's a solid casino experience with good service and a comfortable atmosphere. It may not have the scale or energy of Las Vegas, but it's still a great spot for a fun getaway.
