About three years ago I parked there every Thursday and loaded in El Paso Friday morning. Every week for two years. Big truck lot, clean quiet place. Lowes, Dollar General right next door. Big store, hot food, coffee. Had to retire, miss you all.
Nice bathrooms. Plenty of semi parking. Area for your dogs to explore. Horses out back. Coffee in the morning.
Edit: I come in peace now to let bygones be bygones. Also, friendly and prompt cashier young lady. 😊 Next: a year ago. PUZZLING!!! While the blonde waitress greeted me happily from behind me without me having seen her, yet, the young woman with glasses & short brown hair behind the counter seemed to take pride in being blatantly rude AGAIN (only 2nd time there with her working, no, existing there), chewing miserably on a chicken wing with me making conversation!! When I asked The Rustic Cafe LOVE OF A YOUNG LADY how she was she said: FANTASTIC! 😀 Thank you, Kent Kwik, for KEEPING AWAY that RUDE person from any other more frequently visited businesses! Looking forward to her being put to work out of sight to explore her other latent, perhaps, under-utilized skills!
The Rustic is delicious! The mountains are beautiful. Not very far from White Sands. Plenty of truck parking. Its a mom and pop that has definetly done a lot of remodeling. Staff was amazing! Will stop again.
The quality of the food is not good.The service could be better. The cooks do not know how to multi task, long wait time for our meal. The Mexican food lacks flavor. Its truly sad to see this place doing so bad.
What sane person would close the restaurant at 1pm? Last truck stop for hours going east on 54. Thanks for nothing.
Cheap gas and free wifi and dumping. Clean inside. Centrally located
Dealt with a very nasty and rude lady 7/20. Horrible customer service and she is always like that when i come in.
Great stop we found here, not many on 54 but well be stopping here from now on if we come this direction.
Gas station with good selection of products.
Foods always good in the Rustic. The service is very good. Except one waitress that works at night. Her name is Toni. She is snappy, the Last time I got a hamburger I asked her before she handed me my to go bag, if she put ketchup in it and I asked for more ketchup she said she put 2 handfuls of ketchup in the bag. I got out to my Truck and she didnt even put any condiments in the bag. Getting her to answer the phone for a to go order is impossible. But everything else is excellent!
Great showers wonderful food and customer service! I wish I wouldve found this place earlier in my career! This place blows the big name companies outta the water completely! I will definitely be stopping anytime Im close!! I wish I could give yall 10 stars.
The Rustic Cafe is a fun place to eat. We like breakfast, the Alamo Style hashbrowns are a favorite.
Over 75 gallons free great burgerThank You lady’s
Plenty of parking for 18s, great home cooking 24 hour restaurant and 24 hour C-store. Old time truck stop, may not be for everyone but its perfect for me. Also in a great location with other stores around too and easy to get on the bypass or 54 upbound.
Wonderful staff at a great truck stop!
I ordered a bacon cheeseburger WELL DONE to go. When I got home the burger was pink inside! I dont like my hamburger PINK! This is Not the first time I get a pink burger, but the other times I was in the restaurant and sent it back to have it made WELL DONE!
I can’t say enough good things about this place. Friendly staff, clean restrooms, and excellent laundry facilities. I’ve been driving for over 40 years and this place reminds me of the good all days. I don’t get through here often but it is definitely on my stopping list when I do. Good job to allOf the people who work here. I will give you 10 stars if possible.
Great people great food.... One one the last mom and pop truckstops. The restaurant is amazing and not overpriced the same with the store
Burrito 95 percent flour tortilla very little filling .not worth almost $4.00. things went down recently with New Management.
Truckers! Plenty of space to park even in the Wee hours.Friendly staff and good food at their cafe. Their coffee could use a bit more grounds...Reasonable prices all around.
Easy in and out for trucks. Lots of parking. The place was very clean and the staff was friendly. The taquitos out of the hot box were delicious. Wish I could have stayed the night. Just stopped for a short break. Will definitely stop by any time I go through.
I experienced an unprofessional visit because of the attendant Erin. While I was waiting in line Erin felt the need to talk to the guy a head of me about her daughter’s dog. While I was still waiting another guy came up to the line and Erin stopped helping the guy she was chatting with to help the other guy. After she was done helping him Erin went into the back to get her phone to show the first guy pictures of her daughter’s dog. There was another attendant there and all would have been ok if Erin asked the other lady to help people in the line while she was “helping” this one customer. I left without purchasing my items because Erin made it very clear she didn’t want to help me.
Plenty of parking and awesome fuel prices! They have the best breakfast burritos and clean restrooms I always stop when I’m in the area.
Great truck stop with lots of parking, free laundry, friendly staff and a cute little diner.. huge portions of food at a super low price. Will def be back
I came here just thinking I was getting cheap diesel when I came in for the receipt the nice young lady Tyra offered me a meal I had a choice of like 5 different entrees I noticed they had washing machines and dryers when I went to wash my hands she told me they were free they are so nice here Huge lot so nice I will definitely tell my co-workers/boss and any other drivers I speak too...O They have showers too
By far the best chicken fried steak dinner Ive ever eaten.
Always parking available, great stop for fuel, showers are pleasant and clean
Laundry driers not working..2loads..1load not dry after 2hrs in machine 8am wasting time.. nobody cares.. doing laundry from 5am.. on the good side restaurant is great!
Great place for a driver to stop. Plenty of parking and friendly people. Great food in the restaurant too.
Restaurant- Truck stop restaurant with good food and friendly people. Cooks and front staff are very courteous and professional.Store - Great staff......Only complaint(s) I have is the price of the diesel.....you’re going to start losing out with increased prices! Lowe’s / phillip 66 is 3.09, and spend a little money on the floors in showers 1 and 3......really?
This place is dope!! I always stop on my way through. Big rigs, if you pump 75 gallons of fuel, you get a free meal. Good old fashion truck stop
I came in at 3am March 26, 2019. Store was clean. Bathroom clean, it didnt even smell like a bathroom 👍🏾😊. Their was a guy working at the truck stop, he was very friendly 👍🏾😎👌🏾. I later rent over to the restaurant, the woman that took my order was friendly 👌🏾😊. I ordered the chicken enchilada, it was pretty good 💯⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐💯. Also, it did not take long to prepare my meal. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐😊😊😊😊😊👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾💯💯💯💯💯
I stop here quite often. Always very clean.Very good cafe. Plenty of big truck parking.The spoiler is the cubby blonde girl in the c store. Very rudehas no CS skills what so ever.
Great place to stop. Lots of parking, friendly staff and good food.
I dont come thru here very often but when I do, I want to support the local businesses by eating in the restaurant. It can be hit or miss on the service. Today, the lady that waited on me was slow. The other waitress had to take my order because my servier left me waiting. She brought my food & took my empty plate, but nothing else. I didnt even get my check. I walked up & paid the other lady who was working the register. I think I may have to stop eating in the restaurant. The breakfast burritos in the store are usually good. Well see. The mens restroom smells. The laundry is cheaper than most other truck stops
CUsually a bit crowded but service is quick and the food at Rustic is great.
Great food at The Rustic friendly staff
Very nice truck stop nice and clean
Drinks and goodies and clean restrooms. They have a good restaurant inside, laundromat, and gifts.
Nice people. large clean parking.
For all haulers out there, free meal and drink with purchase of 75 or more gallons of fuel. Place is clean and seems very friendly.
If you have a disablity or service animal DONT stop here. They are rude about it.
Very clean and a great staff
If you get fuel, you get a food ticket for for dinner.I like these little places.
Get the 2 pounder burger!
