No road trip to Austin feels complete without a stop at Buc-ee's off I-35 North near New Braunfels…read more Whether you need a bathroom break, a quick breakfast, or snacks for the drive, this place always delivers. The snack selection is endless--perfect for keeping you energized or, if you go heavy on the carbs, ready for a nap. Despite the constant crowds, the restrooms are consistently spotless and spacious, which is a reason enough to stop. Prices have definitely gone up, but Buc-ee's is still worth the visit. Stretch your legs, stock up on snacks, and enjoy one of the biggest Buc-ee's in Texas. It's a road trip tradition that never gets old.

I-35 seems to average a Buc-ee's every 50 miles. That's fine if they're anything like the one in…read moreNew Braunfels. This 65k+ Sq Ft mecca of goodness has the cleanest bathrooms in the stretch between San Antonio to Austin with delectable eats, an endless wall of fountain drinks including Arizona products (you don't see that anywhere else), and most importantly, the roasted pecans. There's over 1000 reviews here so my review just adds to the noise and means nothing. There's the typical Buc-ee's merch if you need to brag to everyone. There's your fudge, your jerky, your BBQ sammies, and your beaver nuggets. The world is your oyster, but to my knowledge they don't sell those. RIYL: BRISKET. ON THE BOARDDDD

My visit to Tex Best was extremely disappointing. After a long drive, I stopped in hoping to grab a…read morerefreshment and cool down, but instead I walked into what felt like a sauna. The air conditioning either wasn't working or was completely ineffective. The store was uncomfortably hot, and several employees appeared to be sweating heavily while working. The prices were another shock. I ended up spending far more than expected for just two drinks, which made the experience even more frustrating. I was also concerned by what I observed in the food service area. Employees were using their phones while working around food, and I did not see gloves being worn during food preparation. One food service employee, Abigail, seemed annoyed that I wanted to place an order. After seeing the condition of the food area and the lack of professionalism, I decided it wasn't worth purchasing food. Overall, the combination of excessive heat, high prices, questionable food handling practices, and poor customer service left a very negative impression. Management needs to address the air conditioning issue immediately and take a closer look at food safety standards and employee professionalism. I will not be returning and would encourage others to be aware of these issues before visiting.

Tired of fighting the traffic at Buc-ee's to fuel up and get a snack? On a Saturday morning we sure…read morewere. So we decided "eh let's give this place a shot instead" on our drive down to San Antonio. And to our surprise, this place was actually really solid. No, it doesn't have the SHEER square footage of the NB Buc-ee's, but it has nice clean plentiful bathrooms, a good assortment of snacks, drinks, useful trinkets, and toys, as well as a buy-at-the-counter deli with fresh hot food and many tables to sit and eat inside. Honestly, all our needs were more than met stopping here and it took probably less than half the time fighting the onslaught of cars/people always swarming like ants at Buc-ee's across the freeway on the weekends. If you find yourself in a similar conundrum (and don't have any beaver-related business needs), just come here instead! Also the Exxon pumps have tap to pay. Yay!

In 50 years of buying gas, I have never been treated as poorly as I was today…read more Car wash malfunctioned, not only would they not give me a refund, but the nasty counter person treated me like I was a criminal because I demanded the sales receipt be returned so I could discuss it with H‑E‑B leadership. Nope, no cash, no credit, and apparently no receipt, but a whole bunch of smart ass attitude. They can keep the $13 they stole from me today and I hope they all choke on it. Buy gas across the street ... H‑E‑B fuel would get zero stars.

This is my go to stop on the way to work. I go early so this is a chance to fill up without crowds…read more It's an HEB company, so you know that it's well maintained and clean. I prefer to go here rather than the mega fuel stop across the street because early in the morning, some of the folks are timing themselves against a Nascar Pit Stop and it gets sketchy driving thru the lot. I feel totally safe here. They also have a car wash that's reasonable for a drive thru version. It's good to knock off the grime and pollen, but I wouldn't go on a prom date afterwards.

With any business, it can fail or succeed due to their employees. It doesn't matter if you have the best product or service on the market, your business will thrive or die without the right people representing your company. I know for a FACT I'm not the only customer that will drive a bit farther to get gas or other convenience store items due to one of their AMAZING employees. Her name is Raquel and there's never been a time I've been in there that a customer hasn't proclaimed that they come to this location solely because of her! Most will drive a few extra miles because of her and this is more common than not. I don't know what they're paying her but, they should double it or at least give her some kind of commission for all of the customers she brings in to that specific location. Currently, I'm not a business owner, but if I were, I would be scouting her out to handle anything and everything business wise. People love her! And it's not without reason. Raquel remembers everybody's name. She recalls the conversation they had previously and will ask them about their life. I can't say enough good things about this wonderful woman. The thing I also like about her if I were looking at her from the standpoint of a business owner is the fact that she doesn't keep a long line chitchatting up with somebody. She keeps the flow going and is a genius with the customers. I just don't have the words to really describe how amazing she is. And I hope that somebody else that frequents this location will chime in. Honestly, this place is making money hand over fist not from their location but, from Raquel.
