Large beverage selection, and they have food here too. Five stars for the snack/drink selection, 3 stars for food(not bad, not great) 4 star average.

He needed beer so after our dinner at McMenamins, we stopped by here. After looking at the different types of beer that they had as well as the prices, he opted for the pack of Bud Light. This is like our typical 7 – 11 or AM/PM however, they offer ice cream like Rite Aid [Thrifty]! We saw fried chicken, sandwiches, and other hot RTE(ready to eat) meals but we came solely for the beer so that’s what we left w/. The lady at the register was friendly and I like that the store was well lit and was clean! Please note that not all convenience stores carry alcohol because of their state law.

It’s rare for a gas station to warrant more than 3 stars, but this Fast Stop really did it. They have separate gas islands for both cars and for commercial trucks(semis, etc.) and a pair of car/truckwash bays clearly large enough for even those big rigs. Inside, the market is more extensive than most, equalling a large convenience store, including some minor automotive supplies and a notable hot food case and even some made-to-order food! Most impressive, though, was the restroom. Just by looking(and smelling) very clean, it earned its 3 stars, but the spaciousness and warmth(especially on this cold day) were very welcome. The warm air vent is actually located directly over the commode, which was wonderfully decadent. Definitely this was a good location for a break!
