Q: Generally clean, but of course it shows the use of many patrons who don't cleanup after themslves. Usually there's an attendant on duty wiping and sweeping. The machines accept an onsite credit card that you'll load with paper money, so don't bother saving up quarters for this place. Oh, and it opens at 6am! OPTIONS:

Q: It was New Years Day, and bf and I were driving back from Flagstaff craving BBQ. We managed to miss the exit off the I-17 to go to one of the bbq joints up in Anthem, and when we tried to go to another nearby bbq place (Pork on a Fork) they were closed. Finally, we found one more option that wasn't too out of the way, Campfire Bistro! It's close to the Ice Den where I spent many a Friday night in middle school, so it brought back fond memories of singing to Smash Mouth and Backstreet Boys while ice skating with friends. When I realized this place was in a gas station, I was skeptical but hopeful. When I walked in I was surprised to see what basically looks and feels like La Grande Orange-it's in a market with upscale cool things to buy like wines, cheeses, meats, and fun tchatchkies to look at and play with. There's a register counter near the front when you walk in, and Campfire is on the righthand side of the shop further down from the entrance. It's easy to find once you're in. They have a seating area near the soda fountains (COKE PRODUCTS, SCORE! they even have cherry coke from the fountain!), and there is a wonderful display of BBQ sauces with pretty dead-on descriptions of the flavor profiles of each. There's to-go ramekins for you to squeeze the bbq sauces into, and of course bf and I took at LEAST one of each. They let us borrow a sharpie to label the sauces so we would remember which was which, that was way helpful! I was immediately attracted to the BBQ tacos-they came with a choice of pulled chicken, pulled pork, and brisket, and they come in an order of 3 and are served on flour tortillas (YES!). When I saw that there were 3 meat options and you get 3 tacos in the order, of course I asked if I could get one of each taco, which the cashier happily obliged. Bf ordered the same thing, plus a pulled chicken sandwich to have for later which came with chips. Tacos didn't come with a drink or chips, but they were under $10 for three of them, and they were all very tasty! Tender, juicy meat on a soft, fresh tortilla with salsa and some other goodies sprinkled on top. Bf agreed that all of them were delicious, and I think we both decided the chicken is the winner here. All of the bbq sauces were good, though the spicy ones were VERY spicy! Cheap, delicious, creative...I will be back! P.S. I noticed after I ordered that on the menu board, in VERY small print, that they offer BACON WAFFLES. Um, why is this not the main attraction?! Why not put it in bold letters and let the world know you offer this?! I definitely need to try these!!! OPTIONS:

Q: Back in high school, when I thought the hottest thing doing was Abercrombie, Charlotte Russe, and the new Target by our house (come to think about it, Target is still the bees knees) I was naturally aghast when my mother took me "shopping," and we ended up here. Why are we in the middle of nowhere? What is this large brick building, a dentist office? I do not see a Starbucks. Turns out there was some hope for my future self because within 30 seconds of pouting my way inside, I fell in love. So. Many. Things. To. Look. At. I come to Holland and Boone (which isn't so in the middle of nowhere anymore) whenever I need a gift. Not just any gift, a gift to make an impression. Among my many faults is my distain for registries (I know, I knowwww) and if you are going to deviate from the list, it better be memorable. Every single wedding I have attended since High School the Bride & Groom have ended up proud owners of some sort of pewter. I take that back, every single wedding where I liked the Bride & Groom they have come up winners (sorry). Not only do they got gadgets and gizmos a-plenty, they've got whozits and whatzits galore. Heck, you want thingamabobs? They have 20 (which is the Disney way of saying their selection and variety is unbelievable). The truly amazing part is the pricing. You can get anything from a stunning wedding frame, shell shaped salad bowls, fancy serving dishes, ornaments, trays, golf themed pewter salad tongs, to fabulous holiday decor or large scale furniture... all for beyond reasonable pricing; especially when we are talking high level gifting. Note: When I say Holiday decor I am not even scratching the surface, and they keep it fresh every year. I know this review is all over the place, much like my ADHD brain every time I step foot in their giant showroom & easy to use warehouse. They do monthly specials as a gift suggestion, and as other's have mentioned they do coupons as well. You can get velvet bags at checkout which helps with gifting, and that butcher paper sack and black tissue paper that comes standard never fails to excite. The bottom line is if you are looking for a gift, or something special for your house, go here (but don't tell my mother). OPTIONS:

Q: I bought a groupon for these and wish I'd have saved my money. Even if they were good, they are overpriced. However, they weren't. I am a big brownie eater...but only the home made type. These tasted like packaged brownies. I actually left them on the table at work so that other people would eat them...since no one in my house would. I only ordered the walnut but I doubt the other ones would be any better. Ice cream couldn't even save them (now that's bad). OPTIONS:
