“These people at this tire shop are the nicest most helpful people I've met when I went there to have a tire mounted! It turned out there were several other problems going on with my old model pickup that day! They were so courteous and helpful and had me back on the road to home in a short time! Honestly were a blessing to me that day!”

“TJ's is convenient.....located on Collin Raye Drive which is a main road in De Queen that will lead you to Oklahoma if you head West or Texarkana if you head East. So, the location is perfect for a quick refuel along your route. What really stands out about this convenience store is the FOOD and the SERVICE. They have the friendliest staff and they serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. The food is exceptionally good.....not like you would expect from a gas station. It's unique and very popular. There is a small dining area in an atrium-type setting. Great hamburgers, salads, my favorite is taco salad....the grilled chicken salad is also wonderful. They have Fish Fridays and don't get me started about the dorito cassarole. All excellent and good portions. I like this place so much that when my family asked me where I wanted to eat for my birthday lunch.....it's was my first choice and worked out great....mom and I had taco salads, granny ate fish and dad had a hamburger. Everyone was happy.”

“This little store offers up some great tacos. The tacos were wonderful, you could taste cilantro among some wonderful onions. My partner and I would eat here again. The a/c appeared to be out of commission- the guy running the store was relying on a fan.It was tempting to try the homemade potato chips. They looked delicious and I regret not buying a bag.”

“Their sales on energy drinks and the lowest gas price in town is a plus. One thing I miss about Murphys rewards program is they dont ever have anything but water and never snacks anymore.. if they added other items back to that it would make my day!”
