A Hidden Gem Worth the Drive
Wow—pulled pork with bourbon BBQ sauce and Jersey-style fair fries? Just take all my money already.
This place is an absolute hidden gem. The only downside? It’s nearly a two-hour drive from home, and that’s just cruel.
I was in Cumberland for a business trip when someone recommended this spot. From the outside, it’s unassuming, but the food? Incredible. I ordered the pulled pork, and it was so good I seriously considered grabbing another before heading out.
On top of the amazing food, the staff were absolutely lovely. Their warmth and friendliness made the experience even better, and I’m so grateful for their hospitality. If you’re anywhere near this place, do yourself a favor and go. You won’t regret it.”
“Love it! We’ve been coming since they open and love it. Coffee and bagels (charred onion cream cheese is outstanding) are excellent, great baked goods. Fish sandwich is wonderful for lunch or dinner. So happy these guys opened up in this spot - great addition to SoFree, ME.”
“This truck stop is small but still convenient for the area and not too many other options as far as truck stop, the restroom and showers are clean and well maintained, they also have washers and dryer machines too.”
“There are so many things this place offers it's truly shocking. They'll make you a meal, & Take out if you call ahead it will be ready for you. I'm not a huge fan of Green Mountain Coffee but I liked it, it works for me. They do have groceries I stick to the essentials. Party platters, bags of ice, drinks things to snack on... if you really need some fishing things they have some supplies however I don't know if they sell licenses, as well as propane. I ran across these people a few months ago and wow super super nice Folk. The woman I spoke to told me they did not sell soft drinks out of a fountain and so I couldn't just go in and get some ice but then she shared some of her personal ice with me and after that I'll never forget her. It seems like everybody knows everybody that's there but since I'm not from the state of maine..... I went outside and got myself a few pair of socks and gave it to the ladies that were there. I wanted to come back and talk to one of them about her Heritage in her family and how that very prosperous and well-known person affected her life today and yesterday I just haven't done it yet. Thank you Durham Get & Go!”

“Joined the Irving app and it's pretty nice. Get a discount and a super easy payment process. This place is easy to get in and out of and the store clerks are pleasant enough. Good prices and good experience what more could you ask for.”
“I’ve lived in the area for about ten years and NYV has always been a staple for me and my family over that decade. We grab pizza and sandwiches often for dinner - their smoked meats are killer! The staff are down to earth and very friendly too. Whether grabbing gas or taking an order over the phone, they always do their best to serve you right.
Quick story about how awesome this place is…I just got back from Hannaford and realized I didn’t get onions, which I desperately needed for dinner. They could’ve said no we don’t sell onions but instead they weighed out three huge white onions and sent me on my way. Saved me a good 30min round trip back to the market! Nicest people I’ve ever met and I’d gladly patron them for as long as we live here.”
“Stopped by today on my way home from work went in got a sandwich and a drink. The owner was in the store and was super nice to talk to. The sandwich was great and i will be going back for sure”
“friendliest Rusty Lantern I think ive ever been to. The day I came in there was a young lady working and she was very helpful and nice when I needed assistance, keep up the good work Stephyn!!”
“I've only been twice and treated well each time. There was a little bit of a line, but they're the best price in town, consistently. As J walked out, there were people waiting to get yo the pumps. With it was a little larger, just no room.”

“The staff in this CVS are available when you need help. I observed the pharmacist speaking with customers, and I also observed a pharmacy tech speaking with customers. I, myself, did not use the pharmacy, but I did take note of how the customers were treated so very well and with respect. There was also communication in a friendly manner.
That is so very important to those of us who don’t feel well or anxious about our conditions. It was not only good customer service. It was an observation of people being very kind to one another. Very best to all”

“CVS has a good selection of products, some of them surprising for a pharmacy. My concern is that many of their prices are very high, such that I'll only buy on sale.”
“I have nothing but good things to say about this place as a truck driver. Awesome showers, Great driver lounge, Free parking. Alot of my pickup and drop locations are only a few miles away, so the location is prime. Big truck stop amenities with a small town feel. Every staff member interaction was friendly and met with a smile.”

“Because most of the ppl giving 3 stars or less sound overprivileged like the world is built for their convenience. Spending money or having the intent too does not mean your complaints are reasonable. If you're an adult complaining about coffee not being available you could have brewed yourself etc., you need to think harder on whats really worth complaining about.”
“I'm traveling through here and was hungry. I saw mixed reviews on this place but decided to give it a shot. Sweet woman was working and busted out this Loaded Pizza for me, definitely hit the spot ?Sorry I forgot to grab a pic of the menu y'all, my bad ?”

“If you want a snack late on Christmas night in Freeport, this is going to be your place. This Circle K was sold out of most things late that evening (likely, from others in my position), but I was able to rally together a sausage breakfast burrito and a packet of extra sugary honey roasted peanuts. The employee on call was very friendly. Would recommend dropping by if you are in a similar position!”

“Great traveling in and out location, easy interstate stop no wait. Great stop and amazingly friendly cashier. Bathrooms were outside, but after working 2 years for a gas station, they were very nice for outside access bathrooms. Bathrooms are also unlocked unless in use which was awesome!! No going in to ask for a key and waste time.”

“The drive thru pharmacy is great! Very quick and easy...got a print out for 2019 purchases and a refill in just a few minutes. Unfortunately, we had to go directly TO the pharmacy because the Walgreens (in this Southern Maine area anyway!) new phone system is a runaround and ridiculous! This is a complaint I've only recently experienced, but had heard from numerous people recently, even employees of Walgreen.”
“The crown jewel of Pownal’s celebrated downtown district. Keeping us locals gassed up and supplied with cheap coffee and snacks. Recently renovated and upgraded to include a bigger selection of local beers, which if you’re gonna gentrify slowly, that’s just the price we’ll have to pay.”
