Buc-ee's
Beaver logo chain
Buc-ee's is a chain of enormous roadside travel centers in the American South and Southwest, famous for exceptionally clean restrooms, walls of snack foods, and a cartoon beaver mascot.
The stores function as tourist attractions in their own right, drawing travelers off highways for beef jerky, kolaches, and kitschy merchandise: We planned our road trip around Buc-ee's stops.
