Things You Should Know Before You Visit Buc-Ee's

[@MashedFood]

What is your impression of Buc-Ee's?

[@persnikitty3570]

Love them. Get a TDECU platinum mastercard and enjoy 5% discounts on all Buc-Ees items, most importantly fuel. When driving to the Greater Austin area, there are some wonderful emporiums on the way. Just wish they were more populous on the HWY 36 route to Abilene, and in Abilene, as the closest one is in Temple TX.

[@Cubicnoir]

Total rip off

[@gloonnug4797]

I like em.. yeah they are so expensive but cleanliness is top notch.
Fun fact.. #17 actually hired a woman who was known to steal money from her former job which was the only grocery store in that small town.. poor background check maybe

Buc-Ee’s surprised the hell out of me. It was larger than QT, it has a very tasty selection of food than RacTrack, and has a decent selection similar to Dollar Tree. I once considered it something better than QT, one of my favorite gas stations of all time

[@aintflexinjusttexan8339]

Buc ees is not just a gas station, it’s an experience and a treasure to Texans. I’m lucky to live close to the New Braunfels location.

[@chrismayer3919]

I wonder if they might open one or two in the Southwest; say… Tucson or Phoenix Arizona perhaps? (Hint-hint) 🤓

[@kookymon]

I just recently experience a Buc eea for the first time. OMG, it’s like a WaWa, Shertz and Wal Mart got together, tripled their size and made it Black Friday. Amazing. Place. We’ll never pass one by.

It's worth going in once. After that it's just another overcrowed tourist trap.

[@afwaller]

What are you talking about, they have lots of gas pumps and clean bathrooms. That’s all you need. I’ve never had to ask for a bathroom key to a dirty bathroom or wait for a bathroom at a Bucees.

[@user-jj6lu4vw9c]

Disagree, the gas is cheaper then most stations around the same area. You have so many choices of what you need for a road trip and I assume your just a troll.

[@raymartin3527]

I have never met a homeless person, convict or any any government subsidized entity that didn't rave about it. We had families that actually planned their vacations around our grand opening, some traveling upwards of 200 miles from their back yard.

[@thegodofpez]

The only thing to know about Buc-Ee’s is to go if you’re lucky enough to have one near you. It’s an adventure for me as they’re not ANYWHERE near me.

[@robertstout260]

Their gas and diesel is always cheaper than any stations near it.Cleanest restrooms,nice quick stop to get food to go.

[@sherirobinson6867]

The jerky is fantastic if you don't mind paying $6 for a single piece.

[@michelleseveney9113]

It’s amazing!!

[@wayawolf1967]

If it were not laced with MSG I might give it a try.

[@raymartin3527]

For people that have always eaten processed junk food and are now raising their families on it, you are in for a treat. The brisket is to die for, slow roasted at point of origin, then frozen and shipped to a warehouse before it's shipped to your local gas station where it's reheated to perfection. Bon appetite!

[@reubencarrick4320]

Ahh who gives a S

[@kellyreilly7782]

I Love their restrooms!!! Always know it's going to be clean and plenty of toilet paper!

[@georgesouthwick7000]

Based on the prices they charge for anything except gasoline, I am surprised they haven’t put in pay toilets.

As big as they are I was surprised that the one I stopped at didn’t offer electric scooter chairs for the people that can’t walk the entire store!

[@pgbombketchup]

As big as the demographic is, it makes this doubly surprising

[@momthatloves3985]

That happens so much at our exit!!! Everyone leaves their car at the pump for several minutes

[@Schizz_Popinov]

People parking at pumps is a nightmare everywhere. I would say it's worse for small stations with few pumps than a super station like Buc-ee's

[@thesearedaydreams6854]

Absolutely, and I am ashamed to admit that I used to do this on occasion at Wawa 😬 Never during peak hours, but still... No one ever gave me a hard time about it, but thankfully I came to my senses. I do see others doing this, which is frustrating to others, I’m sure.

[@MeOhMyOh2324]

Buccees is NOT a rest stop. It is NOT a gas station. It’s a shopping experience. Plan on spending at the very least 30 minutes there

[@paulromsky9527]

I think Buc-ees should have a truck stop next door... maybe call it Truc-ees (not to be confused with Truckee CA which has a truck stop by the way).
It would be for trucks only, and only truckers would be allowed in so it may not be as clean and the general public won't have to deal with it being a bit sub-par but better than most truck stops.
The food could be cooked at the Buc-ees and golf carted over to Truc-ees. Most truckers would abide by the rules and not abuse the bathrooms. They could have showers and even quiet rooms where truckers without sleepers can get rest. Trouble makers are documented as such and kicked out never to return. Maybe a thumb print ID system to use the pumps and get into the building.

[@jeffthevideoguy23]

Imagine getting so excited about a gas station bathroom.

[@baseball9635]

[@leehanson1416]

Buc-ees does not hate truckers. Arch and his partner recognized that getting both semi trucks and cars can be problematic. I am a contractor for Buc-ees, and there is almost always a truck stop within 5 miles or so. Many of the truck stops have remodeled their restrooms to Buc-ees standards. Couple of other facts: There is no in store place to eat, everything is "to go", and that's also to keep the flow of people and cars moving. Some folks have said that it's a bad place to work, but I go to 6 of them every month and see familiar faces for the last 3 years.

[@cats400]

They also have great pay. Yes, the employees work hard, but they are also well compensated for their hard work. I love that about Buc-Ees.

[@mikeobrien2831]

I wouldn't go anywhere that hated any American enough to keep them from coming to their establishment and I am not a Trucker but they keep this country moving. If I was a trucker I would not supply them let them figure out the best way to get their supplies!!!!

The BBQ is meh unless you like a sweeter sauce. The best items on the menu are the monster breakfast burrito and pastrami sandwich. You have to wait for them to be prepared but they are much better than the grab and go options.

[@steverowland7163]

WARNING. If you go to a bucees to buy one of their smoker grills, you better ask a few friends to go with you. I spent over 1400.00 dollars at the south Macon GA. store. Purchased a smoker and some food. And the manager told me that it was company policy that they don't help loading the smoker. I got pissed I told them how I felt about it and they were very nasty. If I hadn't drove so far to get it I would have got my money back. Thanks to God he sent help. Three guys offered to help me and my grandson. Thanks to the Coniglio family for helping. But you have to load your own smoker or fire pit when you buy it. Very poor of bucees I think. Just good to know there are still some good people in this world. They will be rewarded by God.

[@TheDexterFishbourne]

Who plans to buy a steel smoker and doesnt bring help to load and unload? Sounds like poor planning on your part.

[@steverowland7163]

@@TheDexterFishbourne your right it was poor planning on my part. Not knowing that buc ees wasn't going to help in any way. Any place I've ever been and bought a heavy big item, there was always some employees that would help. I just thought it was pretty pour of them not to offer help. Especially when I just dropped over 1400.00 dollars. Tell me how you would have done it carried your own forklift. I don't own one. I had a hand winch if anything I would have winched it on the trailer.

They have a right to ban any body they want, however I have a right to not visit Buc-ee's. This is the USA with no limitations. It is sad to see as we could not exist without our truckers, everything you purchased was delivered by a trucker. Buc-ee's has plenty of property and money to accommodate truckers instead of showing their middle finger to them.

[@wayawolf1967]

When you arrive in a 60 foot ride that weighs 40 plus tons it takes up some serious real estate and the parking lot needs to be very thick to support the weight. Concrete is very expensive plus I doubt the restrooms would be so sparkling clean after a bunch of the "drivers" use them.
