The Texan is a family-owned chain of large-format travel and convenience centers. The staff is friendly and the restrooms are clean. The inside is a typical gas station diner, nothing fancy. Customers order from a kiosk, which can be a bit confusing. The food receives mixed reviews. The cheeseburger is very good and juicy, beats the pants off fast food burgers, and seems like a pound of hamburger meat. The turkey sandwich is big and juicy, and the pizza is fresh and soft. However, the steak fries can be a little undercooked and a bit hard in the middle, and the BBQ sandwich is noted as real squishy. Some find the prices a bit pricey for a burger. The locations are open 24/7 with ample parking, plenty of gas pumps, and high-flow diesel dispensers, though the diesel pumps can use some work. Overall, it is a pretty good lunch spot and for many, there really isn't another option.
