“I've been coming here for years to get good quality meat at affordable prices. I have seen this market grow over the years and still deliver a great product. Although, it's much busier now and I'm so happy for the staff & owners. You're not just going to run in and go, it's busy and that's fine. Enjoy a nice conversation with others in line, everyone is friendly. As I chatted with a fellow shopper in line, he mentioned how awesome the ham hocks are...Holy Moses! He wasn't lying.”

“Great place to fuel up on a journey between northern and Southern California. The gas prices are lower than most along the way and there’s a giant convenience store attached with a large and very clean restroom. I immediately added it as a favorite location after the first visit. I will be utilizing this place again on future road trips!”

“Best customer service I've ever had from a convenience store; it was all their staff. They had Uptime energy drink, which is an unusual healthy energy drink that I had never experienced before, it made my drive even better.”

“Im going to Pasadena and happen to pass by here. Decided to fill my tank and as what I have observed, the place was clean, peaceful and gas was cheaper than the other. Also grab some snacks and the staff was very welcoming. Wow. How nice it would be to have a gas station like this. Keep it up guys!”

“Buttonwillow...Sometimes the best travel centers are in cities that are unknown to mankind. There are several gas stations around this particular area. TA is .20 more. There's plenty of parking for cars, RV's and semis.I particularly liked the customer service, the cleanliness/neatness of the store, and the sanitized/cleanliness of the bathroom and extra wide size stalls. I definitely recommend this stop.”

“This place smells actually terrible but that’s not an issue of the station itself. Gas is a normal price for California. It has a terrible bathroom design because for some reason, the door to a stall is directly in front of the urinal, so when you open the door you get an eyeful of a dude peeing. Overall an okay experience.”

“Trucker doing a 34-hour reset here. Had a shower, and although it was very small, it was clean, the water was hot and had good pressure. Got a new set of brakes and drum for one of my trailer axle sides and it was $477 total. Grabbed some Taco Bell from inside and my food was prepared quickly and was very hot and tasty.”

“Convenient location. Fair prices, looked nice and clean. I've seen mixed reviews but I had a pleasant experience. Even a quick bite to eat from the food truck on site. Sometimes you have to see for yourself.”

“UPDATE: Had to use the restroom again, it smelled bad so I febreezed it :) I finally paid it forward and helped someone with a gallon worth of gas. Additionally, I met a really cute couple with two cute doggos! They're headed to Portland! What a long journey, I hope they and get there safely! This place rocks! :)”
