You would think that a remote, tiny town in the middle of the desert of west Texas would have a very limited supply of only the basic staples and most common/popular brands. But this oasis has fresh sandwiches, an amazing selection of craft beer from the local area and into New Mexico. It’s definitely worth stopping.

Absolute gem. The staff here were so incredibly kind, and they have an amazing selection of hot food, fresh pastries, snacks, and drinks (including adult bevvies). Would be a great spot to grab a picnic lunch to drive to one of the nearby national parks!
