Faith In Humanity Restored
We were driving over the summit for work with just enough gas to make the appointment and then hit the gas station when the weather shifted and there was no way we were making the top of the summit in our vehicle. We turned around at the tree in the rock and made it back to Buford. The lovely young lady behind the counter was so sweet and patient while I tried multiple cards to put gas in. Let's just say without this Wonderful person We would not have made it home. The gratitude I feel for this young lady is beyond words. She restored my faith in humanity.
I love the prices at this place. We travel from Michigan to California and back pulling a 35 ft fifth wheel trailer. So obviously we spend a good amount of money on diesel fuel.
I rarely travel with my husband who is a truck driver; however without a doubt every single time we have stopped here to fuel up or just use the restrooms the service has been top notch!! Diesel price is unbeatable, and the restrooms are always clean and well stocked. I love this place and recommend it 100%! But sometimes I want to keep it as a hidden gem.
Great fuel prices for being off the interstate. Clean bathroom, felt safe. No prices on products inside even though prices weren't overly priced. 10/10
This gas station and parking lot are basically the entirety of Buford, the smallest zip code in the US. Worth a stop, if only for the exceedingly cheap gas, and to say that you’ve been.
Good gas, fast. Between Cheyenne and Laramie...it's all you got, but the prices are good and the restrooms are clean. Grab sodas and coffee and snacks, and you're on the road again! Watch out for the potholes.... they'll get you if they can...
This post office and gift shop is one of the icons of the state road I-80. You could say that it is already a historic place because as far as I can remember it has always been there. Once Bufford had two residents, now there is only a population of 1. If you are driving this way, stop and support a local small business. And the prices at the gas station here are cheaper than at the big ones.
Yes cheap gas. I would go 30 miles further West am I from the sikhs. Most of the pumps are closed and you don't know. They are indifferent about making it clear the pumps are closed. In general I would avoid this if you have another option. When their pumps are all working and they have a clear path in and out, maybe their attitude and customer service will improve and it won't be a negative experience to get fuel there.
Might be the highest point on I80 but it has the lowest level of customer service. The lone worker had both headphones in and was very annoyed when I asked him a question (they do -not- sell beer, even though it is one of the 3 things listed on their road sign...)
This is a great place to stop for fuel, snacks and souvenirs. I'm glad this place is open again as it was vacant during my first visit in June of 2021. Buford has an interesting past and is worth the visit. Tree in rock historical site and Ames brother's monument are also close by.
Well, they had gas and a restroom which took care of the essentials. Aside from that, I feel like they were more interested in selling me a Buford population one shirt, than anything else. No coffee, no fountain drinks and over priced.
Lovely, well-kept up little slice of paradise. Highly recommend. Fun history, great gas price ($2.09 last night) and clean restrooms.
Neat merchandise too.
There's a payphone, if you're old-school and that's your jam.
AND: Open 24 hours!
We live far away from Buford, Wyoming. However, this never holds us back as when we are on a trip along I-80 we always make time to stop in Buford and its trading post. This is one of the best places to buy all things Wyoming including stickers, magnets, coffee mugs, T-shirts, postcards and various other humorous items that can be found in a local souvenir shop. The grocery store seems much bigger than the photos indicate. I also want to point something not visible in the photos, A SMALL refrigerated section of sandwiches. They must be popular because there was only two sandwiches left for sale! I chatted with the manager (very friendly). We already had picked out a number of gift items. Then the manager pointed out she just today she had received a box shirts and would my wife like to look at them. You probably guessed it, she fell in love with a sweatshirt. So I had pull out a credit card (again) and buy it for her. All in all a true American cultural gem is Buford Trading Post.
Recently has become my fueling stop when I am traveling I-80. The fuel is cheaper than anything around and it's an easy stop to make. Just a couple pumps available, so might have to wait for one to open up.
Left my phone at this store in Wyoming and was going through a snow storm with no way to go back, the cashier kindly sent me my phone through the mail. Paid for everything and still has not responded with a cashapp for me to pay him back. Amazing gesture from the store and hope nothing but blessings come there way! Definitely a nice enough stop during a long journey.
Something very wrong in this almost abandoned gas station first they take a $150.00 authorization with your permission then they sell you gas in an affordable price but not everyone has $150. to spear for a week hopefully someone will buy it and make it nice again. Best wishes to the new owner.
Stopped here for some very affordable gas, I thought it looked cute and wanted to see what it looked like normally since it was being renovated. The reviews suggested it was closed for a while. The store was closed and actively being worked on, but the attendant pointed me towards the bathroom. Wish I got to see it finished, what an interesting little place!
