“I love this place! LOVE LOVE LOVE I figured the drinks might be a watered down too sweet drink. Absolutely NOT they have a good amount of alcohol and are delicious”
“It's small, crowded, and always busy. Parking has a lot to be desired. The cashiers are good people, fair, and upbeat. This store is popular due to its location and ease of in and out. Lots of business from south Waco. You'll like it here, it's kept clean as possible for a small space store. No attitudes from anyone (staff or customers) usually. Quality store, despite its appearance.The soda fountain is my only area of... wariness. Got a fountain drink from it only once because it tasted, well, really dirty. Other than that, it's a great little store. I always leave here happy.”
“It's so convenient, especially for my husband, who has a harder time at other grocery stores trying to find WIC approved items. I would go to them after my WIC appointments, and I was wondering how this will all play out as I'm moving quite a way away from the location and WIC office... THEY NOW HAVE A WIC OFFICE AVAILABLE IN THE STORE!!! This is the best addition ever and service; it's convenient, with an extremely kind and helpful staff. This mama bear is so grateful.”

“Very friendly staff. I don’t know if the person who commented about the staff standing around behind the counter and the coolers being empty picked the right location, but I live right down the street and am in here multiple times a week at different times of the day and I’ve literally never experienced anything but friendly and productive staff, and a clean and fully stocked store.”

“Best burgers & fried burritos. Always has been one of my favorite burger joints, you won’t find a good juicy homemade burger & fries for $6 anywhere else I can bet you that lol my only problem is the women that run the kitchen I’ve been coming here all my life & literally every single time the cook is rude, this was a different lady from last time & she was rude also. It’s like no matter who the cook is just know she’s gonna be angry lol it is hot in there so I can understand but you have to have some kind of customer service. Other than that I would have gave 5 stars.”
“My car broke down in this area and the owner was very hospitable and generous enough to allow it to be parked there for several days until a wrecker could be afforded! They have everything you could want here, friendly staff, and there is also Grady's Grub food truck out back! Might I also add they do have all grades of Gas available! Stop By, grab some custom looking sun shades and a cool drink!”

“We were on way out from airport Park to Abeline and refueled our tanks at this gas station. We had to wash our windshields and boy...not that they had water in the buckets but soap as well. There is not many gas stations who don't provide water so you can't wash your windshield. Thank you for the extra touch with the soap.”

“The Corner Stop
★★★★☆ (4/5)
This visit wasn’t just about food—it was about paying attention.
Pulling into the parking lot, the first thing that showed up was the smell. Not subtle, not neutral—heavy, oil-forward, loud. For some, that’s the signal to go in. For others, that’s enough information to pause. That moment matters.
Inside, the setup is clear: hot case, volume cooking, fried rib tips front and center. No confusion about the identity of the place.
What I Ordered
* Spicy fried ribs (small)
* Peach cobbler
* Tea cakes
* Pecan pie (did not finish)
The Food
Spicy Fried Ribs
The ribs didn’t land for me the way the reputation suggests.
* Visually: dry, heavily breaded, small meat-to-bone ratio
* Taste (no sauce): flat, not much going on
* Taste (with sauce): improved, but more covered than elevated
The structure felt like it depended on sauce to come alive. And because they’re held in a hot case, not cooked to order, texture and moisture take a hit. That’s part of the system.
Peach Cobbler
This was solid. Warm, sweet, and actually delivered on flavor. No complaints here.
Tea Cakes
These were the standout for me. Simple, clean, and worth coming back for on their own.
Pecan Pie
Too filling-heavy for my preference. Not enough pecan presence, so I passed on it.
The Experience
Service was excellent. Friendly, welcoming, and patient. That part is real and deserves to be said.
There’s also something else worth noting: this place clearly means something to people. The reviews reflect loyalty, history, and community—not just taste. That’s part of why it’s lasted.
Final Thought
This is one of those spots where two things can be true at the same time:
* A lot of people genuinely love it
* This particular experience didn’t fully connect for me
No attacks, no hype—just a report of what actually happened from start to finish.
I’d come back… just not for the ribs.”
