“Best hamburgers you will ever eat. Beer and soft drinks are ice cold. I travel alot, these are by far the cleanest restrooms I have ever seen. Staff is very friendly”
“There's quite literally everything in this store. Very good breakfast food here. Consider replacing the cheese on some of the burritos with beans, ESPECIALLY on the breakfast ones, and they'd be even more amazing.”
“One of the cleanest stations around. Rugs clean. Floors clean. Bathrooms clean. Clerk at the register was even sanitizing the coins in the til. Refills are”
“I just wanted to recognize the amazing customer service at the Allsup’s in Monahans. Chasity and Ashley are absolutely incredible. They always greet everyone with a smile, bring so much positive energy to the store, and genuinely make every customer feel welcome. You can tell they care about the people who walk through the door and are always willing to go the extra mile to help. Great employees like them make a huge difference, and they’re a big reason I’ll keep coming back.”
“Sam ,the night shift girl, was sweet and pleasant, the shower was good, it was clean ,I would stop here again ! I've been in way worse showers in the big chain truckstops!!”
“Great place to sleep and get a reset nice and quiet but the pumps seem to be having issues I went this morning and it took 50 mins customer service isn’t great I won’t say who but a lady in the front got mad at me when I told her my pump stopped and said it was my company’s fault the pump wasn’t working sad sad”
“I stop at this Road Ranger regularly, and the difference under the new management has been incredible. Jessica the new manager has done an outstanding job. She is attentive, genuinely cares about every detail of the store, and it really shows. From the moment you walk in, everything is organized, well-stocked, and spotless. The cleanliness is one of the first things you notice, especially the restrooms. They are consistently clean, fresh, and well-maintained, which is something every traveler appreciates. The employees are another reason I keep coming back. Everyone is friendly, welcoming, and always has a positive attitude. A special shoutout to Kylie, Sonia and every person on the team whose name i haven’t learned yet who always goes above and beyond to make customers feel valued. They all have an amazing personality, and it seems like every customer leaves with a smile or a laugh after interacting with her. Jessica and her team have created an atmosphere that’s clean, inviting, and genuinely enjoyable. If you’re passing through, this is definitely a Road Ranger worth stopping at. Keep up the great work!”
