MOUNT CRAWFORD, Va. — Virginia welcomed its first Buc-ee's travel center today as the Texas-based chain opened its doors in Mount Crawford.
Located near mile marker 240 on Interstate 81, the massive facility features more than 100 gas pumps and a 70,000 square foot store.
Customers can find everything from the chain's famous barbecue and jerky to unique gifts and souvenirs.
Buc-ee's has built a cult following thanks to its spotlessly clean bathrooms and exceptional customer service.
"Buc-ee's is a lifestyle, Buc-ee's is family, Buc-ee's is friends. Buc-ee's is also a family travel center. We're going to put together all that love and that fun into stopping for gas on that road trip right here in Virginia," a company representative said.
The grand opening ceremony kicked off Monday at 10 a.m., with the company's beaver mascot on hand for photos.
