This was a truly unique experience! A former service station converted to a grill/diner. They still sell gas here as well BTW. Service was fast and friendly. Food was delicious and atmosphere was great. It’s not a big place but it was filled with locals the day my son and I stopped by. Great burgers and grill food. If your looking for a craft brew they gave about 20 on tap.

Mind you the options are slightly limited…but to go somewhere that is familiar with AGS and accommodate to the best of their abilities is rare. I am unsure of many resturaunts in this area but was assured by their manager that their options stay with a cook from start to finish and all precautions are taken to avoid cross with mammalian products… she was honest and upfront that they try to keep fryers seperate but could not gurantee since i have anaphlactic reactions to mammal products. Regardless i excitedly told them I will be there in 15 minutes! The chicken sandwich and chicken salad was easily the best I’ve had in a long time. Thanks for the comfort food, you guys!! I will return.

This is one of my favorite places to eat in Amherst! The food is always amazing and hot, and the drinks are great too. The onion rings and fries are both incredible, and the burgers are delcious and well made as well. This is way better than your average bar in my opinion.

The food here is PHENOMENAL. I got a chili dog with sauerkraut and mustard, upon the recommendation of the waitress. My brother got the Chili Thai wings. Both were delicious Probably some of the best wings I’ve had in this area.

Everyone is incredibly friendly, both the staff and other people eating. Everyone was so great. I met one of the previous owners who said that the vision behind the creation of The Filling Station was to be more than a convenient store, to be different. They sure did execute on their mission.

If you’re in the area, this is definitely a local favorite. Try it once and you will understand why.

Tasty local spot with loads of unique flavors on their homemade chips, pork rinds, fries, and tots! It’s very clean and all the ladies who work there are friendly and have great recommendations if you’re not sure what to get!

So my wife and I were on our way home from NC and decided to take the Non-Highway/Motorcycle Route and found a Fantastic Little Restaurant!! At first we weren’t sure if we were at the right place but we were so Glad we did! It’s not real big inside but seats about 25 people and it was Very Busy and the Staff was so Nice, Service was Excellent, Reasonable Prices! So we asked our Waitress what was Good and she said Wings and Burgers are our biggest sellers so my wife and I both got the Wings ( Definitely Top 5 Best Wings We’ve Ever Tasted) , We Got Fries(Perfectly Cooked) and Hushpuppies(Also Delicious). So The Filling Station will definitely be a stop on our way south or if we decide to take a 5 hr ride on the bike for wings!! Remember to Never Judge a Book by its Cover and that goes for Restaurants too! So Glad We Stopped at The Filling Station!!

I come here often(ish) and while the food and the beer selection is always great. I can’t get over how poor the service was today. Specifically in regards to the young woman with Indian feathers tattooed on her neck.
The restaurant was not busy while we were there yet all the tables stayed dirty through customer rotations, and multiple guests cleaned their own tables.

Instead of coming to the tables to ask if people were ready to order she barked from behind the bar and was incredibly short with our and other tables. None of our food came out remotely at the same time ( very small order) and none of the sauces we asked for came until a different waitress came to help. She spent more time talking and trying her friends at the bars vapes than taking care of her tables.
The elderly woman who wasnt our waitress did a lovely job filling in for her mia coworker.

I love and will always support this business but myself and family were very let down with our experience today.

I would still and always will recommend stopping here for a drink and a great hamburger and enjoying lovely Amherst county

Stopped in for some burgers and wings after a baseball game. Service was friendly and fast. Unique atmosphere of a converted 1950’s style gas station to a trendy styled pub. Reasonable prices and quality ingredients. I had a double cheese burger with grilled onions, seasoned fries, and fried pickles. Had a basket of hot wings for the table that were crispy and delicious. Plenty of beers on tap. Definitely worth checking it out.
