This is one of those if you know you know places. It's an amazing place to stop if on a road trip. The food is always good. You will javelin plenty to choose from. The BBQ plates are priced right, and the service is always amazing. I've been stopping here for years and always see the same people working at the counter. They know what they are doing. The restrooms are always maintained very well. They have gifts for just about everyone if you need something quick and qorky. If you are thinking about stopping at buccees, save yourself the time and go here instead.

As you’d expect, this was a sensory overload experience but so far everything I’ve eaten is totally worth it!!

I had a jalapeño ranch chicken salad sandwich for the drive home. It was delicious, savory and with the right crunch & kick from jalapeños. I warmed up a couple kolaches at home, peach cream cheese and a Nutella cream cheese and OMGGGGG!!! Both are delicious! The peach had amazing flavor while the Nutella was decadent.

I have several other flavors to try, a couple meat kolaches and a sausage plate - will report back!

Little ones had brisket and it was delicious!

Slovacek's ExxonMobil Gas Station and Country Store is a true gem nestled along the Texan highways, and it's more than just a pit stop for refueling; it's an experience that leaves you with a smile. My recent visit was nothing short of extraordinary, and I can't help but share my enthusiasm for this hidden treasure.

First and foremost, the convenience of stopping for gas is unmatched. The ExxonMobil station boasts clean and well-maintained pumps, making refueling a breeze. But what truly sets Slovacek's apart is their mouthwatering Texas BBQ. The aroma alone is irresistible, and once you've tasted their tender, smoky meats, you'll be hooked. I couldn't resist indulging in their savory brisket and tangy pulled pork, served with all the classic fixings. It's BBQ heaven, right there at a gas station!

What surprised me most was their extensive gift shop. It's a paradise for anyone seeking unique country gifts. From handcrafted souvenirs to locally-made goodies, you'll find treasures you won't come across anywhere else. I spent a delightful hour exploring the store, picking up charming trinkets and gifts for loved ones back home.

The friendly staff at Slovacek's adds to the overall experience. They're welcoming, efficient, and always ready with a warm smile. It's clear that they take pride in providing top-notch service.

Slovacek's ExxonMobil Gas Station and Country Store is more than just a place to stop for gas; it's a destination in itself. Whether you're filling up your tank, savoring the best Texas BBQ around, or hunting for unique country treasures, this place has it all. Don't miss the opportunity to experience the heart and soul of Texas hospitality at Slovacek's – it's an unforgettable adventure that I'll cherish for years to come.

Huge store with lots of baked goods, deli meats and cheeses, snacks, drinks, fun gifts, plenty of open gas pumps, clean restrooms and friendly staff.

Why go to the beaver when you have this place?! It’s perfection! Merch galore. Clean bathrooms. Dog park. Shopping galore. This is the place to go.

Great place. Too many things to mention. It's a ol skool original Buccees style stop n shop! Literally, something for everyone!

This is a massive convenience store! You may be stopping to refuel your vehicle, but you can refuel tummies with Czech sausages or your lawns with fun decor. How about some school spirit to fate your infant nephew into? It's all here! No human babies? No problem! Lots of room to run around for your 4 legged companions!

Great place to stop to get Kolaches. Excellent service.

Smelled so good I couldn’t wait to take a bite ! Tasted amazing. All the staff was super friendly! Lots of cute things in there. (If you’re looking for a pineapple cream cheese they don’t have one 😂 it was asked many times) over all great experience would recommend to friends.

They have good baked products. A variety collection of merchendise and seasonal decoration also.

Impressed with the selection of food-merch-restrooms and tons of souvenirs to buy a must bucket list to see. New and great to take a break. Too many things to see so need to rest a lil bit? This stop is big to keep ya. Busy ooh wee. Make sure to find the two big roosters!

A must stop if you are in the area! The bakery counter is always busy but the wait isn't as long as you would expect, do not let the lines intimidate you. The kolaches are worth the wait! We always take friends and family here when they visit and no one has been disappointed.

After all of my business trips into Forth Worth. I decided to stop in. It is so deceiving from the outside. This is a different spin from the Bucees that everyone goes ga ga for. I found this place extremely charming and full of unique items for those special people in your life. I would highly recommend a pit stop here. They even have a dog park for your furry baby. You won't be disappointed in your visit.

This is always a greatvplace to stop. Great homemade food selections. Bathrooms are very clean. You can get farm fresh foods here. If you want to shop, you can do that. They also have a large beer selection. They have a collection of kalaches(spelling). They also have gas. Looks like they just opened a Christmas store. This is a must stop and visit. They sale Exxon gas.

Was on a mini road trip and stopped here for breakfast. Finally got to try the infamous kolaches. They lived up to my expectations. I got the bigger jalapeño cheddar kolache and it was great. I also got a pumpkin fruit kolache. This is a great place to stop for gas snacks and food.

Great stop place to get anything you need, seriously anything! All kinds of drinks and snacks, lots of deserts and ice cream, bakery, meats and sausages, great huge kolaches, some grocery aisles, souvenirs, Christmas gifts and way, way more! Prices are very fair and the staff is super helpful and nice, also the restrooms are huge and very clean! And of course they sell gas too!

Super good BBQ and sweets. Got the 2 meat plate with brisket and turkey. The brisket was tender and had good flavor from the fat. The turkey was tasty. Also got beans and really good sauerkraut. The bbq sauce was a compliment to the meats and they provided extra bread. Staff was friendly, courteous, and helpful.

I had heard about West, Texas being the kolache capital so on my next trip to Austin I decided to do a Kolache taste-off and try some of the places by I35. The first one I tried was the best known, but it was disappointing - I felt rushed, and disappointed after my first bite. But on the other side of the highway was a sprawling new destination that looked like it would be pricey and a disappointment, but the only disappointment was that I hadn't gone there sooner. I could have spent half a day there looking around. The bottletop beer area was brilliant, and the bakery area went forever filled with delicious looking freshly made treats that were surprisingly affordable. I have done some research since, and found that Slovacek's started as a sausage company, and I would believe that - the jalapeno sausage cheese kolache was delicious - just the right amount of heat, and decent cheese as well. I may have to buy some sausage to take home next time as well! And I will be back... a lot. Now I have a new reason to travel south on 35!
